Rose Quartz & White Howlite: UNCONDITIONAL LOVE • FORGIVENESS • COMPASSION / CALMING • PATIENCE •  ACCESSING PAST LIVES
Rose quartz has been used in love rituals and ceremonies for centuries, and remains the stone of the hopeless romantic. A member of the quartz family, this crystal is made up of silicon dioxide. It’s sweet, soft pink hue is the result of both the many, tiny inclusions of pink fibers, known as dididumortierite, within the glassy stone that keep it from being totally transparent, and irradiation. This irradiation is also why rose quartz should be kept out of the sun, so as to not loose its pretty shade. With a hexagonal crystal structure, this stone typically forms into large specimen, but occasionally develops smaller, prismatic clusters as well. There is no shortage of rose quartz, which can be found in abundance in mines throughout the world. The most common sources for rose quartz are in Brazil, Madagascar, India and South Africa.

Howlite is a calming stone helping to relieve rage by absorbing your anger or that directed toward you from others.

Placed on the third eye Howlite can help you meditate, connect with higher spiritual consciousness and access past lives. It can be used to calm turbulent emotions which have their origins in a past life.
