That we find a crystal or a poppy beautiful means that we are less alone, that we are more deeply inserted into existence than the course of a single life would lead us to believe. ~ J Berger
Rose Quartz is such a beautiful crystal. What do you think Priceless Gems readers? Rose Quartz, is of course, part of the quartz family of crystals which are very commonly found all around the world. But to me, Rose Quartz is a wonderful variant of the very abundant quartz which is of course white. For may years I wore a Rose Quartz pendent pretty much night and day. A definite favourite! And, I must admit, I think it also helped at times with my overall well being.
Rose Quartz gets it pink hue from trace amounts of titanium, iron and manganese, which sets it apart from it’s ‘normal’ or white/clear quartz cousin. In Greek mythology it is thought that the blood of Adonis, and his lover Aphrodite, during a time of war, were wounded together and blood stained the White Quartz in the ground below them , to pink or Rose Quartz. Rose Quartz or ‘pink’ quartz is rarely found in crystal form, again, unlike its common relative quartz which is found in crystal form. I am sure many of our Priceless Gems readers would have found some quartz while out walking or gardening or the like.
As I said earlier in this post, I felt that my Rose Quartz seemed to help with my overall well being. And, truth be told, Rose Quartz has always been revered as a crystal that can provide the owner or wearer with general well being. Rose quartz can benefit many wearers especially those who would like to improve circulation or stress related skin problems. It can also help with headaches and female fertility. Emotionally Rose quartz can deliver a feeling of well being in helping heal depression and giving strength to forgive mistakes whether the wearers or others. It is also considered a mothering crystal.
