Rhodocrosite
There is something magical about a stone that can assist you in becoming the best version of yourself, wouldn't you agree? Yes! Of course you would! That is why you definitely have to learn a little more about the amazing Rhodochrosite, also known as "the stone of compassion". We can all agree that our modern world would be a much better place if everyone had a little more compassion!
Stone Of Compassion
Whether you are looking to feel more comfortable in your own skin, whether you are looking for that missing piece in yourself, or even if you want to reconnect with your inner child to find the creativity and happiness of old, Rhodochrosite is pretty much the stone for you.
This is the stone to make you feel confident and powerful, to know your strengths and what you can do, and to clean your aura so you are free of blockages and negative energy to pursue any path and dream that is calling to you, manifesting your desires in a clear and concise way.
This stone is not, however, a stone that will do the hard work for you! It is more for those who want to put in the time to achieve what they desire, as it will help them manifest their dreams faster and fill them with prosperity and success. So if you are a hard worker, this is the stone for you.
Its healing properties include the regulation of the heart and blood pressure, as well as the kidneys and lungs; it can help with thyroid imbalances and intestinal issues; and it also helps with the correct absorption of minerals and vitamins.
Beyond that, it will also help with general breathing problems and even with asthma symptoms. It’s amazing to treat skin disorders and allergies, and, my personal favorite, it's amazing to help with migraines and other tension headaches!
Just like any other pink stone, this is a stone that works with energies related to love and compassion, and especially self-compassion.
The Teaching Stone
It is a stone that will help you look into your past to heal those heartaches that might not be fully healed; it will teach you to work with your pain instead of avoiding it; but it will also help you pull yourself out of that pit that you might not even have been aware you were in.
All so you can become whole again, pick up the pieces of a broken past, and forgive every pain, so you can (as one of the stones' nicknames suggests) have a healthy inner child.
If your current life focus is on love, it will manifest in the courage, armed with a healed heart and a healthy relationship with your inner child, to take action to go out and look for (and find!) that special someone to spend your life with.
Let me tell you something I’ve learned about the amazing crystal rhodonite: if you've ever felt the need to soothe your inner self—your emotions, your mind, or your heart—you're not alone. Well then, this is definitely the stone for you!
Energetic Vibrations
Deeply connected with the Heart Chakra, Rhodonite is a stone that will help you bring clarity and peace to every emotional matter, be it those that have long been buried in the past or those sudden emotional outbursts, Rhodonite will help you bring some peace into the moment.
And part of why it does this is its ability to ground and recharge energy, making any emotional or energetic downward spiral stop and start to recharge it, giving you more energy and peace of mind to adjust and not fall into any mental or emotional breakdowns.
As a stone that helps you recharge, this is great for those times in which you feel sleepy and tired, giving you an extra boost when you know you have to keep going without having to worry about going too high in the wrong direction (you know, anxiety, overthinking, and so on).
Instead, Rhodonite will keep you in that perfect spot where you can focus on what’s in front of you, so you can push in whichever direction you want without the fear of overdoing it or lacking the strength or confidence to accomplish it.
Its ability to bring clarity to past emotional situations makes it perfect for dealing with heartaches that were never fully healed and for processing emotional pain that might have turned into trauma, anger, or fear. All of which tend to cloud our minds.
This clarity will help you see things (past and present) in a new, more objective, and loving light, and the energy you’ll feel from it will help you tackle those issues without hesitation.
When it comes to more immediate situations, rhodonite will help with strong negative emotions such as panic attacks, emotional shocks, and anxiety. It will also help you remain calm in situations that otherwise would make you feel upset, confused, or afraid.
So having some rhodonite on you when you know you are about to do something stressful or scary is a great way to protect yourself from such emotions. This makes it perfect for new beginnings!
Like all pink stones, rhodonite is deeply connected with the heart chakra, so it makes it perfect to work with if this chakra is something you are currently wanting to focus on, enhancing all the energies associated with this chakra and giving them direction.Increasing your capacity to feel love, compassion, and trust toward yourself and those around you will give you a more empathic, yet clear and focused, view of the world within and without.
Physical Healing
As for its physical healing properties, it’s all about your heart health and your circulatory system. It will greatly reduce any issues that are associated with stress and tension, such as digestive issues, sleep problems (stress is one of the main reasons why we can’t sleep well at night), and focus (...where my ADHD people at?). It will also help with skin problems such as scarring and insect bites.
As a side note, it is said that Russian mothers used to place rhodonite in their children’s beds to protect them from danger and sickness, so it might be something to keep in mind.
Lastly, it is important to know and understand that what Rhodochrosite actually does is open your heart, your mind, and your life to the ability to experience new things with wonder (like a healthy child) and compassionate love (like a healthy adult) so you can experience a more positive life outcome, and it helps you have a more balanced energy.
Overall, it's a very powerful stone that can help with all kinds of emotional and energetic problems. It's a good idea to keep it with you at all times.
Definitely a very special stone to learn more about and keep in your collection!
