Useful tips
In order not to spoil a quartz crystal, you should know what you should absolutely not do:
- Quartz reacts very negatively to sudden changes in temperature, so the water should be warm, but in no case hot.
- Do not use abrasive detergents consisting of small solid particles. Despite the relative hardness of the stone, such interaction can greatly harm it.
- Even if you manage to clean the stone at home, do not forget that you need to show it to the jeweler from time to time. Optimally - once every two years.
Healing abilities
Rose quartz stone has a healing effect on various inflammatory processes, and also helps with disorders of the cardiovascular system. The mineral is able to give its owner peace and muffle outbursts of irritability, thanks to which it can be used as a talisman for Scorpio.

This will help her get rid of migraines and relieve eye fatigue. Please note that the magical properties of the stone do not appear immediately. Usually the expected effect occurs within a few days.
Method No. 7
There is another great way to cleanse the energy of stones and the aura of your home - singing bowls. I will tell you what this is in the following articles. And if you can't wait, just write to me at the number below. The answer will always find the questioner.
Don’t forget, in this article we looked at how to cleanse the energy of your stones. But how to put their appearance in order will be a little later.
Girls, I strongly recommend that you pay attention to leather bracelets with replaceable buttons made of minerals from our beloved Vasilisa. Customize your energy and the energy of the new day the way you need, using combinations of stones that suit your energy needs.
How to Cleanse and Charge a Stone
If you need to cleanse rose quartz of bad energy and restore its magical properties, then the stone should be placed in a glass of salt water for a few minutes. Then the liquid is poured into the sewer, while you need to imagine that all the negativity goes outside your apartment. To charge the stone, you need to take four church candles (ordinary pink or red candles will also do). Light them and imagine how your talisman is filled with light, warmth and goodness.
Important! It is believed that the crystal can be charged with positive energy by rinsing it in salt water and then keeping it in direct sunlight for three days. This should not be done! Rose quartz can change color when exposed to excess ultraviolet light.
Method No. 2
And of course, no one has canceled the miraculous properties of water. After all, even we ourselves, after a hard day of work, after standing in the shower for a few minutes, feel like new people. Water from almost any source will do. In general, everything is simple: we place stones in water for 10 minutes, and they are alive again. But here it is important to take into account one point: not all accessories on products like water. If the decoration is just like that, then choose a different cleaning method.
There is also a group of stones that are also not suitable for cleaning in this way. They are afraid of water:
dioptase
fluorite
nacre
malachite
lapis lazuli
sodalite
chrysocolla
These minerals can tarnish when they come into contact with water. And that's the best case scenario. Often such manipulations lead to the destruction of the above minerals.
I also do not recommend cleaning the agate Dzi bead with water. Only in extreme cases.
Esotericists recommend!

Interesting Facts
Quartz stone is the best material for making magnifying lenses. Compared to their glass counterpart, quartz lenses have a greater safety margin and higher transparency.
One of the most amazing quartz products is considered to be a Mayan skull, which was discovered during archaeological excavations on the Yucatan Peninsula. Despite the fact that the product was cut from a piece of mineral (it must be said, not the most malleable material to process), it reproduced in detail the anatomical features of the human skull. Interestingly, the quartz skull exudes a sweet and sour aroma, the origin of which remains a mystery.
| How to distinguish a quartz stone from a fake? There is nothing simpler - just try to run a knife or other sharp object across its surface. If there are no scratches, then this is real natural quartz. |
Black quartz, also called morion, undergoes strange metamorphoses under the influence of X-rays and high temperatures. If the mineral is heated to +300 C, it will acquire an original golden hue. Under the influence of a temperature of +400 C, the stone will become colorless. But as soon as you irradiate it with x-rays, the quartz returns to its original color.
Performing a ritual to attract love
When the preparation is completed, you can begin the action itself. Candles need to be lit and placed in candlesticks one at a time, while greeting the spirits of each direction in accordance with the cardinal points. You need to start from the north, moving on to the south, east and west. Once the procedure is completed, you should relax and ask the spirits to help and become mentors.
Then you need to, sitting on a comfortable chair and facing the table, pick up rose quartz crystals. If they are too large, the procedure will have to be carried out on each one separately. So, the algorithm of actions:
- Close your eyes and try to feel the energy emanating from the Amur stones. This can be done by imagining how the waves emanating from them gradually reach the heart through the palms and bloom there like a crimson rose. You need to feel every petal, even try to smell this flower of love.
- After this, say out loud the words of the affirmation: “I am a magnet for love. I welcome love into my heart. I myself (or myself) am love.”
- Place the stones in place one by one, starting from the north direction, and say: “I also welcome love into my life.”
- Concentrating diligently on the crystals and closing your eyes, sit quietly for a few seconds. Then say, turning to the candles and stones: “I send your light and love into the world,” after which you must wait until the candles burn out. The cinders must be extinguished in the same sequence as when ignited - starting from the north direction.
- At the end of the ritual, thank from the bottom of your heart the spirits and stones helping to carry it out, after which the candlesticks can be removed, and it is better to leave the crystals lying on the table for a while.
This is not the only ritual to attract love. There are others that are also considered effective.
How to rid a stone of accumulated negative energy?
The best cleanser is water. It is useless to take chlorinated tap water or simply boiled water. The water must be living - spring, artesian, river, melt. We carry out cleaning of gems in the last three days of the lunar month, since on these days the power of the stones weakens, and their energy field more easily part with the accumulated information.
So, we lower our stone into a glass vessel with water and leave it for several hours. Then rinse thoroughly under running water. After the “water procedures,” the gem should be placed for a couple of hours to dry and replenish with living energy on a torn green leaf of a plant next to a burning candle. For the next 7-10 days, the stone should rest in a place where no one will disturb it. Closer to the full moon, the stone is placed overnight on a window exposed to moonlight or in the sun for several hours. Charged with lunar or solar energy, the gem is ready for dialogue with the owner. The stone will generously share its magical power with its owner, help in healing procedures, and protect in difficult life situations.
How to distinguish an original from a fake
When purchasing jewelry and ritual paraphernalia, you should pay attention to signs of the originality of the stone, so as not to become the owner of a fake.
There are indicators indicating the natural origin of the mineral:
- The surface of untreated quartz cannot be perfectly smooth and even.
It shows microcracks, internal defects, and areas of varying transparency. Artificial analogues are almost always even and smooth, and the shape is distinguished by correct geometry. - Natural crystal is always cold.
It retains its temperature for a long time even when warmed with your hands. But if you release the heated quartz from your palms, it will instantly restore the usual temperature balance. Fakes made of synthetic material retain the heat given off for a long time. - Pure transparent quartz is extremely rare in nature.
Such specimens are often treated with a special cut and inlaid with precious metals. Therefore, the cost of such products cannot be low. Translucent and opaque stones are more common. - The differences between natural and grown minerals lie in the color and types of edges.
Natural stone cannot have a bright tone, while a fake gives itself away with a rich shade and accumulation of dye in microcracks. The edges of a grown specimen almost always have a more rounded shape.
Who is it suitable for?
Rose quartz is ideal for those people who want to start a family.
Earrings made from the mineral will purify feminine energy and attract a worthy chosen one. Men will treat their significant other responsibly, surrounding her with care and attention. An amulet made of a nugget in a silver frame will be especially favorable for this.
An amulet or talisman made from a nugget will inspire and reveal inner talents to people whose work is related to art (artists, writers, actors, journalists, etc.). Creative potential will become inexhaustible.
The stone patronizes the following names:
- Karina;
- Christina;
- Love;
- Alexandra;
- Hope;
- Vladislav;
- Luke.
For anyone who longs for spiritual cleansing, a pink nugget is suitable, because it will not be able to act in a negative environment.
Belonging of love stones to zodiac signs
In order to choose the right love amulet, you can refer to astrological tables:
| Zodiac sign | Stone |

Imitation
The popularity of rose quartz, caused by the properties and qualities of the mineral, contributes to the filling of the jewelry and costume jewelry market with fakes. Most often they are made from polymer materials.
The result is artificial stones that perfectly imitate natural quartz. But weight (it is lighter) and color (rich) can give away a fake. Thermal conductivity can also indicate the origin.
Another material that skillfully imitates natural pink crystal is glass. Particularly successful are fakes with a cat's eye effect, made from inexpensive fibrous borosilicate glass. When checking for authenticity, it is recommended to use a needle point. There will be a scratch on glass, but not on natural quartz.
It is more difficult to distinguish between a laboratory-grown mineral and other natural, but cheaper stones.
Signs that relate to: color, type of cut, quality of the surface layer, and cost will help you distinguish them.

Types and colors
The pink mineral is highly valued for the enchanting beauty of its shades. In nature, crystal comes in the following colors:
- light pink;
- reddish pink;
- hot pink;
- with a purple tint.
Natural mineral has three varieties:
- translucent milky rose quartz, often with white inclusions;
- a star-shaped crystal with radiant sparkles appearing when a stream of light hits it;
- cat's eye with a shimmering effect.
The stones can be either transparent or translucent with a slight dark purple luminescence. The hardness of the varieties is the same, some samples have weak pleochroism.
Love box
To carry out this ritual you will need a thin candle, a rose flower and an incense stick with its scent, a rose quartz crystal, a red box or box and any object symbolizing love. If you don’t have a box, you can make a box out of cardboard and cover it with red paper, and use a heart made from fabric yourself as a symbol of love. The ritual is performed on a full moon or during a waxing moon. The most suitable day to implement your plan is Friday.
The algorithm of actions is simple:
- Place a rose, quartz and a heart in a box.
- Light a stick. After it burns out, take the box in your left hand and a lit candle in your right.
- Thinking of your relationship with the person you like as a fait accompli, say: “Love is coming. I am surrounded by a shining halo of true pure love. My love is approaching, I meet it.” These words must be spoken several times until the candle burns out completely.
After the ritual, the stone must be taken out of the box and carried with you constantly, and placed under the pillow at night. Instead of the crystal itself, you can also use jewelry with it - a ring, beads, a bracelet. The closer the stone involved in the ritual is to the body, the sooner you can get what you want.
