RHODONITE
An extraordinary stone of the Heart Chakra, Rhodonite shares more than the lovely rose color of its sister stone, Rhodochrosite. While both lays bares the emotional wounds and scars of the past for healing, restoration, and reinvigoration, Rhodonite focuses on nurturing our inner selves and reclaiming all we were meant to be. Rhodonite, richer in color with effects that are deeper and more lasting, takes up the process and empowers us to reach our full potential, focusing our gifts and energies outward for the betterment of all. It is a stone of purpose, cooperation, community, altruism, and generosity of spirit. It is a talisman to further the brotherhood of humanity.
Rhodonite is an emotional healer that brings us back to the center during stressful times. It is a crucial first aid stone to calm emotional shock and panic and provides grounded support during the process of dealing with painful issues, along with healing trauma.
Rhodonite has a strong resonance with forgiveness of self and others that have hurt us and gives the soul the love it needs in order to heal. It gently releases self-destructive tendencies, festering resentments, and anger, and allows us to see both sides of an issue to reach conciliation.
It encourages the love of others. It aligns us with the spirituality of the universe in order to recognize our purpose and how our gifts and abilities may be used to effect change on Earth.
It is associated with the steady drive of Taurus, the supportive compassion of Cancer, the generous protection of Leo, and the ambitious optimism of Sagittarius.
Rhodonite is a beautiful and gentle stone for tapping into your hidden talents, compassion, love, generosity, and altruism. It creates a powerful channel between your Heart and Root Chakras, allowing energy to flow freely between them – which results in deep, profound healing regarding issues with love and security. Rhodonite is also detoxifying and purifying. It’s a wonderful stone for healing issues around weight loss, selfishness, and being of service to others.
