Rose Quartz is an eye-catching crystal used for emotional healing. It promotes self-love and kindness while healing any past relationships or traumas. Furthermore, this crystal helps mend broken hearts while also creating forgiveness, acceptance, and inner peace.

This crystal is believed to activate the heart chakra, encouraging trust in all aspects of love. It dispels any feelings of anxiety or suspicion which might prevent full expression of your affections, while encouraging open communication in relationships and encouraging you to listen and comprehend different perspectives.
