RHODOLITE

“A harmonious blend of rose and raspberry, Rhodolite embodies the elegance of romance and passion, whispering secrets of affection and opening the heart to give and receive love.”

Rhodolite is a variety of garnet, whose name is derived from the Greek word "rhodon," meaning “rose-like," aptly describing its characteristic pink to purplish-crimson hues. Historically, Rhodolite has been esteemed for centuries. Its use dates back to ancient civilizations, where it adorned jewelry, amulets, and ceremonial objects. In Rome, Greece, and Egypt, explorers wore Rhodolite to protect against evil on their journeys. In the Victorian era it was cherished for its romantic appeal and association with love and passion.

This gemstone promotes emotional balance, compassion, and creativity. It stimulates the heart chakra, fostering feelings of love, intimacy, and friendship. Additionally, Rhodolite is thought to enhance self-confidence, courage, and inner strength, making it a favored gemstone for those seeking empowerment and spiritual growth.

Rhodolite is often associated with the zodiac sign of Aquarius. As an air sign, Aquarians are known for their visionary nature, humanitarian ideals, and intellectual pursuits. Rhodolite's vibrant energy is said to resonate with Aquarian traits, encouraging innovation, open-mindedness, and social consciousness.
