Raw rose quartz is the most authentic version of this stone of love. No polishing, no shaping: just that soft, milky pink, sometimes streaked with faint white veins, exactly as nature created it. There's something very touching about holding a raw rose quartz in your hand. The gentleness of its energy is almost immediately felt, even by people who are new to lithotherapy.
It is often the first raw stone recommended to beginners, precisely because it is gentle, never overwhelming, and works for everyone.
In lithotherapy, a raw rose quartz stone is ideal placed on a nightstand to promote peaceful sleep and sweet dreams.
In the living room or bedroom, it diffuses an energy of tenderness and benevolence throughout the space. Held in the hand during meditation, it opens the heart chakra and helps to work on self-love, forgiveness, and emotional healing. Many therapists also use it in sessions, placed directly on the recipient's heart. For maintenance, a rinse with clear water and recharging under moonlight once or twice a month are sufficient. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight, which can fade its color.
