Ok I'm obsessed with Rose Quartz (along with Amethyst is one of my favourite crystals). Rose quartz properties are linked to unconditional love, emotional healing, inner calm, and strengthening self-worth. It's a supporter of your journey that helps open your heart gently. If you feel the pull, let it support you in your journey. 💗 Use it by keeping it close (desk, bedside, or on you) as a gentle reminder to soften and stay grounded. Clean it by rinsing with water, smoke (like incense), or leaving it under moonlight. Avoid harsh sunlight for long periods.
