THE ELEMENTS AND STONES



Crystals and stones have been used in the arts of alchemy and magick for ages. Different stones are traditionally associated with different elements of nature. The traditional four elements in Western culture are Earth, Air, Fire, and Water. Spirit (or Akasha), is the fifth element, that has been recognized more in the New Age than in older traditions, as the "glue" that binds all together.



This list shows common relations to the various elements such as directions, symbols, chakras, etc. It also gives some of the common associations between stones and the elements.

Rose quartz is one of my favorite mineral stones to work with. It has a lot of intrinsic properties that makes it, not only lovely to wear, but also a very powerful talisman.



CRYSTAL MEANINGS AND METAPHYSICAL PROPERTIES LORE OF ROSE QUARTZ



Keywords: Love

Rose quartz is pink quartz that is often called the "Love Stone." It is a stone of unconditional love that opens the heart chakra to all forms of love: self-love, family love, platonic love, and romantic love. The high energy of quartz gives rose quartz the property of enhancing love in virtually any situation. In turn, this lowers stress. All in all it is a very soothing and happy stone.



Emotionally rose quartz brings gentleness, forgiveness, compassion, kindness and tolerance. It raises one's self-esteem and sense of self-worth. It helps balance emotions and heal emotional wounds and traumas, even grief, bringing peace and calm. Rose quartz removes fears, resentments and anger. It can also heal and release childhood traumas, neglect, and lack of love, in part by enhancing inner awareness. It can help with reconciliation with family and others. Overwhelming or unreasonable guilt is eased by rose quartz.



In the psychic and spiritual realms, rose quartz is often used to attract love, and for love spells. It is also used to ease the process of transition in dying. Rose quartz can be helpful for dream recall and dream work.
