Rose Quartz Composition

Rose Quartz is mainly mined in Brazil, India, Madagascar, some parts of the USA, and South Africa. It is a type of quartz (a naturally found mineral composed of silicon and oxygen, or silicon dioxide) that exhibits a soft pink hue.

The pink color comes from really tiny inclusions of fibers called dididumortierite and the deepness of the pink color is usually determined by the quantity of titanium and manganese in the stone—rose quartz can range from a faint pale pink to a very deep rose pink. 

Rose quartz forms as hexagonal crystal structures and can grow to be quite large, but it can also grow in smaller prism-like specimens.

Long associated with the energy of love, some believe that the manganese in rose quartz can calm and heal the heart. But rose quartz is not just a healer, it also helps to attract love, protect, and has other attributes, making it a stone used and loved for centuries.

Rose Quartz History

All quartz, including rose quartz, has been used for millennia for its healing and magical properties. Ancient Egyptians, Greek, and Roman civilizations used quartz as powerful talismans for protection and healing.

There are legends about mythological figures using rose quartz to inspire love, such as Adonis and Aphrodite, and Cupid and Eros. In Egyptian mythology, Isis used rose quartz for divine beauty and youth.

Apart from legend, rose quartz has actually been used for centuries, with beads made from rose quartz dating back to almost 7000 BC found in Mesopotamia, which is modern-day Iraq.  Jewelry made from rose quartz in the Assyrian and Roman era dates back to 800-600 BC.

The Egyptians believed that rose quartz could avert aging, and it has been reported that facial masks made of the stone have been recovered in Egyptian tombs. Earlier cultures of the Americas used the stone in amulets, and Chinese and Tibetans acknowledged rose quartz as a love stone since 600 BC.

In the 1960s, rose quartz was first mined in South Dakota, USA and since then it has been declared as the official mineral of the state.

Rose quartz has always been popular in love rituals and healing and is said to balance emotions, quell anger and heal disappointment. Even after centuries, till this day, rose quartz remains a stone of love.

Rose Quartz Energy

The silicon content in rose quartz makes it an amazing conductor of electricity — this is the same silicon computer chips are made of, that run a computer.  Rose quartz, just like all quartz is piezoelectric, meaning it can generate electricity under pressure, just like your 'quartz' watch.

Similar to the effect crystals have on electronic devices, they have the same effect on shifting and transforming energy in the body. What differs from crystal to crystal is the type and pulse of the vibration (soothing, bold, protective, energetic), which determines the particular 'energy' of that crystal.

In the case of rose quartz, this beautiful pink quartz crystal carries a high vibration and energy, strong enough to enhance love in almost any situation.

Rose Quartz and the Heart Chakra

Keeping the chakras of the body balanced is essential to living a physically, emotionally, and spiritually balanced life. A stone of the heart chakra (fourth chakra), rose quartz opens up and activates the heart to give and receive love and also encourages one to love oneself.

The heart chakra is located right in the center of your chest and is crucial to emotional and personal growth. It is the vital energetic center of the chakra system, just like the heart is the pulsating center of the body. A balanced heart chakra is essential for love to flow freely from you and to you.

Rose quartz's calming and balancing energies penetrate the heart chakra promoting positive vibes of compassion, forgiveness, empathy, and kindness which reduces negative energy such as hate, envy, anger, and resentment, built up in this chakra which can block it.

With its element as Water, rose quartz can support the heart in both physical healing and emotional healing.  

Rose quartz heals the heart chakra allowing love and kindness to flow freely, so for example, if someone cuts you off in line or grabs your parking spot, or accidentally bumps into you spilling your coffee, you are empowered to deal with the situation with a lot less irritability and anger than you may have.

When it comes to attracting love, make no mistake, rose quartz will not magically help attract your soul mate, however, its gentle, healing energy can make you more emotionally balanced and receptive, and when your interaction with others becomes more positive, it makes it much easier to maintain relationships and attract love into your life.

How to Use Rose Quartz for Healing

Rose quartz can be used for healing in many different ways. You can wear the stone, place it in your surroundings, meditate with it or carry it with you.

Make sure to cleanse your rose quartz before using or wearing it. You can do this by keeping it out at night under the light of a full moon and then programming it with the type of loving energy you want it to help you manifest.

You can also cleanse rose quartz by a process called smudging. Smudging involves burning some sage and enveloping yourself and the crystals in the smoke for 30-40 seconds. This is excellent to clear negative energy from the area, the crystals, and your own energy field.
