The birthstone for October – Rose Quartz. Rose Quartz stimulates love and opens the heart chakra, bringing peace, happiness, faithfulness, and good relations. Rose Quartz is a symbol of gentle love and beauty. It calms our emotions and clears emotional trauma while stimulating the imagination and intellect to open to inner calm, self-love, respect for oneself. During the ancient Egyptian civilization, Rose Quartz was thought to slow down the aging process. A Rose Quartz bracelet was placed on the arm of a newborn baby to ease the transition between spiritual and physical realms. This stone of Venus promotes adapting and successful integration of these two worlds. Rose Quartz awakens and strengthens the sense of beauty. We cannot possibly try to accept other people’s love unless we love ourselves. Love is vital for all, especially for those involved in spiritual growth.
