As the month of March marches in, we are aware of all the turmoil and strife in the world. Perhaps a good crystal to examine this month is Pink Tourmaline, a stone closely associated with the heart chakra and known as the gem of peace. It is a calming stone that can soothe emotions as well as the physical body. It symbolizes friendship, love, compassion and humanitarianism, all of which are needed in the world today.
Pink Tourmaline stimulates one’s receptivity to healing energies and the wisdom of Spirit and brings a gentleness and compassion to one’s nature. It assists in attaining peace and understanding, awareness and trust. The soothing color of this stone calms feelings of anger or resentment and can aid efforts to meditate and reflect.
The stone represents a love of humanity and humanitarian work, as well as sympathy towards others. Pink tourmaline is perfect for counsellors and healers because it promotes better listening and understanding. It is believed to carry the virtue of love that is unconditional, as well as everlasting friendship. It is said that pink tourmaline radiates the highest levels of love out of all the tourmaline stones.
While no one stone can bring peace to the world, Pink Tourmaline may be a place to start. Use it as you meditate and concentrate on bringing peace to wherever it is needed, especially to the people of Ukraine who are desperately fighting for it and are in great need.
