Rose Quartz and Clear Quartz Crystals
|
My husband and I have lived together in the Ozark Mountains since 1978. Our 1978 home was built into a rocky hilltop above a river which required blasting into the solid rock that became two walls of the full walk-out basement. Living on a steep hill required some creative landscaping. Terracing began shortly after we moved into the house in 1986. I think we may be done now in 2014 having completed all the gardens we want and the leveled paths and sidewalks for access.
Life takes many paths. It is not the destination but the journey that gives life meaning. Every project was an act of love as we grew together and shared the joy as we worked together. Our home is the center of our life and, like our 40 year marriage, has evolved as an example of reaping what we have sown. To celebrate our 40 year anniversary and the completion of major landscape projects in 2014, our yearly trip to Hot Springs, Arkansas included just the the right symbols to bring home - crystals placed on either side of our new back steps that are located in the center of our home and yard. We will pass by them every time we go outside and it is the perfect place to sit. It is the bridge between inside and outside, rest and work, and of being alone or together. It is now time to sit and view the life we have built together.
The Rose Quartz Crystal is the stone of unconditional love and infinite peace. It is the most important crystal for the heart; calming, reassuring, strengthening empathy and sensitivity and aids the acceptance of necessary change. It encourages self-forgiveness and acceptance, and invokes self-trust and self-worth. The Clear Quartz Crystal is the most powerful healing and energy amplifier on the planet because of its unique helical spiral crystalline form. It absorbs, stores, releases, and regulates energy and is excellent for unblocking it. It raises energy to the highest possible level. It is a master healer.
"Crystals have an extremely high vibration that raises consciousness and opens the higher chakras to communicate with other dimensions." The Crystal Bible, A Definitive Guide to Crystals by Judy Hall.
