The lovely light-pink rose quartz is an excellent tool to assist you with attracting more love into your life. Its soft and clear pinkish-rose hue immediately makes one think of love. Rose quartz can balance and also open your heart chakra to assist you with loving yourself. Then as a bonus, besides the personal, intrinsic benefit of filling your being with positive and healing self-love, since “like attracts like,” even more love will become drawn to your loving radiance.
Energetic Healing
When you work with rose quartz with this intention, you are focused on your own energy. Ethically, you don’t have to worry that you are imposing your will on another. As another benefit, the focus on balancing your own heart chakra can bring healing and a greater sense of peace in other areas of your life.
A Loving Meditation
Try this meditation to open and balance your heart chakra. Get a piece of rose quartz. (It’s great to work with a rose quartz pendant, because you can wear the pendant later as a reminder that strengthens your intention.) If you wish, you can energetically cleanse the stone, and program it with your own intentions. (A brief walk-through of cleansing gemstones: you can connect with a higher power and set the intention that the method you use (such as wafting incense over the stone, chanting, etc.) will clear away old or unwanted energy. Keep in mind, some folks believe that gemstones are self-cleansing and do not need regular cleansing. Some stones are safe to cleanse with water, and some are not, so it is best to get clarity on that before using water if that resonates with you.)
Find a quiet place to relax. If you wish, you can hold the rose quartz in your left hand, as generally, the left hand is believed by some to be the receiving hand. (Of course, do whatever resonates with you as the most appropriate – trust your inner guidance.)
Get into a meditative state. Visualize the loving energy that comes straight from Source surging through the rose quartz, up through your arm and into your whole body. As your body is filled with this loving energy, bring the focus to your heart chakra. (You can then even place the rose quartz over your heart center if you wish.)
Finish your meditation, thank Source, and ground yourself. As you go about your day, carry the piece of rose quartz with you, or wear your pendant as a reminder close to your heart.
Do this meditation as often as you like. (Since rose quartz is associated with Venus, it might be nice to try this each Friday, a day also associated with Venus and love!) Keep in mind that this meditative exercise is simply a reminder of what is already within you. To paraphrase spiritual and self-help teacher Wayne Dyer, “You are love and you emanated from love.”
Rose quartz jewelry is also a beautiful way to keep your intentions close to your heart. It also makes a thoughtful and meaningful gift! Especially with Mother’s Day coming up soon, a rose quartz gemstone pendant necklace makes a truly special gift. Kendra Scott is known for dainty jewelry that is at once ethereal and classic.
