Rhodochrosite from China is a unique variety of Rhodochrosite that crystallizes in a slightly different way than localities from around the world. Most of the crystal habit is small clusters, disc-shaped crystals, or gemmy chunks in a black and white matrix. The color of the Rhodochrosite is darker than most deposits, with a more red color than the usual pink. Additionally, there is usually some presence of Pyrite near the Rhodochrosite crystals. The main deposit in China is the Wutong Mine, sometimes spelled as the Wudong Mine, but can also be found in the provinces of Hunan, Hubei, Chongqing, Fujian, Inner Mongolia, Liaoning, Sichuan, Xinjiang, Yunnan, and Zhejiang.
Rhodochrosite's focus is to heal yourself and your emotional body. This stone should serve as a daily reminder to put yourself first and take care of your well being. Without yourself being healthy and able, you will be unable to provide love and help to others in need. Rhodochrosite is an extraordinary mineral that is here to help you let go and release anguish, pain, and trauma weighing on your mind and heart.

Rhodochrosite’s calming and soothing energies will imbue your aura with love, peace, tranquility, and life force energy that is here to help you get through any obstacle in your life.

We recommend meditating with Rhodochrosite a few days per week, and placing it directly over your heart. Close your eyes and open your mind, heart, and soul to vibrant pink rays of love. Let this crystal bring all emotional trauma to the surface and allow yourself to close that page in this book called Life. Only when we have an open mind and a clear heart can we successfully move forward.
