But rose quartz has been used since 7,0000 BC in a variety of ways, and the cunningfolk of history have passed down rituals to make rose quartz a valuable part of your spiritual practice.

Many cunningpeople empower their rose quartz crystal or jewellery with an intention. To do this, decide what you would like your rose quartz crystal or jewellery to help you accomplish. If you bought your rose quartz crystal jewellery from Cunningfolk, it will be charged by the moonlight and primed to accept this intention. If you bought it elsewhere, you may want to cleanse and charge your crystal before you begin.

Once your rose quartz crystal or jewellery is cleansed and charged, sit with it in a quiet, peaceful room. Cup it in your hands. Meditate for a few minutes on what you would like it to help you with. Are you feeling incapable of choosing the right romantic partners? Are you having trouble in your friendships? Would you like to stop the negative self-talk, or learn to forgive yourself? These are all intentions well-suited to rose quartz’s magical properties.

Keep your rose quartz crystal or jewellery on or near your body, where you’ll see it often. Every time you glance at it, your intention will come to the forefront of your mind. And you’ll be reminded of your goals — with the help of your rose quartz crystal, of course.
