Rhodochrosite is very similar to Rose Quartz. It leads us to find what it is to have love for ourselves before loving others. It reminds us to be gentle with our bodies and forgive our past mistakes. It is commonly used to recover suppressed memories from our childhood. By doing so, we can use the energy of those memories in a new way and give them a new light.
Rhodochrosite loves to be involved in every adventure near nature as it wakes the inner child in us. It is also commonly used as an anti-anxiety and anti-stress stone.
Start by simply meditating with it. Hold it in your hand, close your eyes, and let its soothing energy wash over you. If you're feeling adventurous, you can even experiment with manipulating its energy. The wider end channels feminine energy, while the narrower end embodies masculine energy.
And here's a fascinating tidbit: rhodochrosite can also be used as a harmonizer, drawing inspiration from ancient Egyptian practices. Imagine holding these stones in your hands, feeling the balance of the sun (masculine energy) and the moon (feminine energy) coursing through you.
For best results: Keep your stone approximately within 12 inches from your aura field. To know how far your aura field is, extend your arms as if you are pointing at someone in front of you. If you trace the distance between the longest finger to your shoulder it will give you an idea how far your aura field is.
