STRAWBERRY QUARTZ
Strawberry Quartz is an opaque pink crystal, sometimes found with streaks of grey or black in it. Its colour could be said to have the hue of a strawberry smoothie or milkshake and being pink, correlates to the vibrational qualities of all crystals with this colour frequency, so being concerned with qualities of the heart, such as being loving and nurturing and being compassionate. In comparison to the much more well known Rose Quartz, it is a bit slower in vibration. For this reason it is usually used lower down in the energy field, such as on the solar plexus or sacral chakra. If a tumble is purely pink, without the grey or black in it, then it could be used higher up.
Whilst Rose Quartz is a stone of unconditional love, that when holding it often has an accompanying feeling of the heart opening up and sending love outwards, Strawberry Quartz works a bit differently, the energy is more contained, and it feels more directed inwards to the self. Its a stone that helps with self-love and self nurturance and accepting and being compassionate to oneself. There is a gentleness and tenderness about Strawberry Quartz, that can help with being kind to the self. Often those involved in healing work may be great at healing others, but not so great at healing or loving themselves and in this instance this crystal may be a great one to work with.
