LOCALE — Resplendor, Minas Gerais, Brazil, S. America

SPECIMEN — I don’t exactly have favorite crystals but I do have certain ones that I strongly resonate with. If you find yourself collecting more of a certain type of stone than others, this is because its energy matches the vibrations of your core values and authentic essence. Kunzite is one of those stones for me. I love crystals that are like Jolly Ranchers. Seeing, holding, and engaging Kunzite makes me feel soothed, open-hearted, brighter, and happier. This piece is perfect for heart meditations as it feels particularly reassuring when placed on or near the heart chakra during meditation. It is super clear.

Note: To preserve the color of this piece avoid keeping it in direct sunlight for extended periods. It will fade and lose its saturated color.

“The Heart Expander”

ENERGY: Opening, Balancing, Vibrant, Unconditional

FOCUS: Activates and makes love ready for sharing / Connects one to their infinite source of love / Prepares one for healthy relationships

From sheer appearance alone, Kunzite radiates softness and love. It is hard not to smile when encountering a piece of kunzite. It ranges in color from bubblegum pink to more purple violet. There are four essential stones for the heart, which include rose quartz, pink calcite, pink tourmaline, and kunzite. Rose Quartz is the foundation for self-love, forgiveness, and inner peace. It removes the blocks that prevent self-connection. With the heart opened, Kunzite nurtures one’s heart with pure love that translates into self-acceptance, compassion, and reassurance that one is worthy of love as a perfectly divine creation just as they are. From this healthy activated state, kunzite has prepared one to share their love without fear. Pink tourmaline then enables one to dynamically express this love in outer expression. Each step of the process is important…just like skincare.

Pink stones resonate with the heart, but less with the physical aspects that green does and more with the spiritual foundations of our emotional intelligence. How we handle and perceive our emotional responses to the stimuli we encounter depends on our relationship with ourselves. The color pink is the color of love. First and foremost, we work with pink stones to establish self-love and initiate radical self-acceptance. Learning to be personally responsible for fulfilling our individual needs is one of the biggest challenges and gifts we face as humans. When we succeed in loving ourselves first, we have love to share with others. Pink stones align us with our purest intentions so that we take action from a heart-centered approach, the most assured way of keeping the energy we radiate at the highest of vibrations. This communicates to the Universe that we hold ourselves and others in high regard, which creates magnetism for attracting into our lives all that we authentically desire.
