History: Electromagnetic, rhodochrosite (MnCO3) is a fairly recent discovery in the mineral kingdom. Formed when manganese is dissolved by ground water, it then takes on carbonate materials to form Rhodochrosite. it was discovered in Argentina “en mass” just before World War II. It is Argentina’s national gem stone. It is often found in caves, where it forms stalactites and stalagmites. It can form in rare shades of orange and pink. It has stripes of various width in shades of white. It is also found in the US and USSR. Because remnants of this stone were discovered during the time of the Incas, it is sometimes called “Inca Rose”. First, recorded as Rosa Inca, in the 13th century, this stone was believed to be the blood stained stone of the Gods. It was thought to be from the “heart of the mountain” or “corazón de montaña”. Rhodochrosite means “rose colored“. Today, rhodochrosite is used as an industrial mineral in the production of alloy steel and for floor and wall tiles.

Rhodochrosite Elixir
A crystal elixir or gem essence combines the energy of your crystal that is infused in either water or oil. It is often placed in the sun in order for the crystal to imbue the water or oil with the crystal’s energy or Qi and then the decoction is used for healing and anointing.
Here is what you need: A glass container filled with about 12 ounces of water. If you are going to be placing your essence outside, be sure to cover it. Read more here

Cleansing & Charging Rhodochrosite
~ Cleansing a crystal is always a good idea to rid it of energies (negative or otherwise) that it may have picked up during handling and excessive use.
~ Charging a crystal is bringing its energy levels back up, after use and cleansing. Like re-charging a battery after it has lost its energy. A great way to do this (and remind you that it is time to do so) is during a full moon.

The Power of Color
Color plays a major role in determining how your crystal can help you. A crystal’s color is due to its combination of minerals, which give it it’s own personality. It contributes in what attracts you to it. The psychological aspects of color determine how a crystal’s healing properties work.
