Kunzite Crystal
Price range: $57.00 through $80.00
Kunzite is a very spiritual stone that will help you connect to your source of unconditional love. This then prompts you to think loving thoughts and do loving actions to others and to yourself. We have two almost identical crystals (i can’t believe it!) and the photo is of the larger.
This Kunzite Crystal is a nice grade with colour but not much clarity. These is some white matrix like a clay or kaolinite that maybe with a toothbrush you could get to remove. I am leaving as I like the energetic combination. It is sweet to sit beside as I write this. This lower grade means it is a lower price than some I have sold but still will do its lovely work more gently with you,
This crystal is an amazing “growing your heart’s energy” crystal. It will give you a surge of confidence to bond with people, especially new friends and colleagues. It will restore your trust in yourself and others because you become compassionate to yourself and others for the creation for the bad experiences.
Kunzite crystal gets its beautiful lilac-pink colours from the presence of manganese in the stone. Unfortunately it will fade over time in the sun but not its healing help.
