Rhodochrosite is manganese carbonate and
is often found in association
with silver mines in Andes. Its usual color
range is deep peach-tinged rose
with pale pink, cream and occasionally gray
banding.
The key word for this stone is integration.
Integration of upper three and
lower three chakras. Helps to open doors
that have been closed, allowing
the experiences to flow freely. Rhodochrosite
also helps to work with painful
emotions by allowing us to accept them and
touch them with mercy, rather than overcome them. For this purpose – use
or wear together with Malachite. The
Malachite will draw the emotions to the
surface, the Rhodochrosite will help
you to deal with what the Malachite reveals.
Use Rhodochrosite to bring new love into
your life, to help in search for
romance.
The white lines often found running through
this stone symbolize the power
it has to channel the white light energy
from the crown chakra into the
physical body.
Fourth chakra.
Rhodochrosite has only a hardness of 4. This
is hard enough to wear as
jewelry but soft enough that you must be
careful when wearing daily because
it will scratch fairly easily.
