All you need is Love. Valentines Day and pink crystals.
As we approach Valentine’s Day, it gives me the perfect excuse to share some pink crystals with you. Whether or not you celebrate Valentine’s Day in a romantic way, my view is that any reason to focus on love has got to be good. Maybe try being your own Valentine and focus on being loving to yourself. Maybe take time to tell all those people who matter to you that you love them. Maybe make the Earth your love for the day – take a conscious walk with love and appreciation – sing a song of love and gratitude to the land or to the water.
Pink can be gentle or feisty, just like the girls it is often associated with! Pink is a combination of white and red, and the red gives it energy and sometimes passion, so don’t ever write off pink as overly tame or wishy washy.
I’ll start with pink Quartz, called Rose Quartz. It usually comes in lumps as opposed to individual crystals and some of the pieces can be huge. The quality varies from low grade light opaque pink that’s perfect for gardens, to gorgeous high grade that can be deepest pink or beautifully subtle and very translucent and sometimes even lavender.
Rose Quartz radiates Love. Of all the crystals, this is the one of which I say ‘every home should have one’. Every workplace should have one too – and your garden will appreciate a chunk! When in the environment, it encourages us to be kind, tolerant and understanding of ourselves and others.
