Rhodochrosite helps develop inner freedom by neutralizing the destructive behavior patterns that restrict personal growth and undermine physical health. First, Rhodochrosite neutralizes destructive emotional patterns. Then it cleanses any disharmony caused by the neutralization of the destructive patterns. Finally, its energy helps you rebuild a healthy, solid, and efficient emotional foundation. These three functions—neutralizing, cleansing, and rebuilding—all work together to promote inner freedom.

To understand how Rhodochrosite works requires some understanding of the energetic makeup of patterns. Behavioral patterns manifest in the subtle bodies as what appear to be thin lines. A closer look reveals that these lines are made of blocks positioned one after the other. One block is a certain cause, the next block is your response to that cause; the next block is a similar cause, the next is your response, etc. The more often you respond in the same way to a particular cause, the longer a particular pattern line becomes. As soon as you finish reacting to a certain cause, the next cause block starts to form. As soon as a new cause block is completed, it develops something like a magnetic charge that draws to it the response characteristic of that particular pattern line. The longer a pattern line is, the stronger its magnetic charge and the more strongly it directs you to react in the same way.

Of course, not all behavior patterns are negative or undesirable. Rhodochrosite affects only undesirable pattern lines. It changes the magnetic charge of the cause block at the end of an undesirable pattern line—ideally drawing a different, healthier response. When you first wear Rhodochrosite, you might find that you have a greater awareness of your undesirable actions and that these actions no longer feel like your most comfortable response to a certain situation. In other words, you may feel as though you’ve outgrown a particular response. For a while, you may continue to react as you always have. However, as time goes on, you will naturally begin to respond to the same cause in a different way. This will be the beginning of building a new, more uplifting and harmonious pattern.

Emotional patterns resemble an incorrectly assembled puzzle that has been sitting around and collecting dust between its pieces. When the puzzle is shaken up, the dust flies. Emotional patterns behave in a similar way. When unhealthy emotional patterns are formed, they tend to collect miscellaneous and undesirable energies—in other words, emotional "dust." When Rhodochrosite is worn, its energy sweeps across your emotional fabric, shaking up these unhealthy patterns and cleansing the dust from them.

When the dust has cleared, your emotional strengths will be revealed. These are the strengths that have been buried beneath the dust of emotional confusion and the needless emotional energies that clutter one’s life. This dust obscures emotional clarity and undermines clear emotional expression. When Rhodochrosite has cleared away the dust and debris, it rebuilds the puzzle so that all the pieces fit together correctly.

Rhodochrosite is a tool that can change your life. When patterns are highlighted, worked on, and given perspective by Rhodochrosite, they can provide the lessons needed to master life. Working with therapeutic quality Rhodochrosite will give you the opportunity to arise newborn in a new arena, where you can be the master of your own destiny.

The Influence of Patterns on Health

Emotional patterns feed energy into the physical body like lasers. The amount and type of energy fed depends on the attitude or feeling associated with the pattern. If the attitude is one of hurt, anger, fear, or anything else negative, then this is exactly what will be aimed at the physical body. If enough of these negative emotional energies are fed into the body, a weak spot will develop, and physical disharmony and disease will result. Rhodochrosite can help you stop feeding your physical body with disharmonious energies by resolving the underlying negative patterns and by creating new, positive patterns.

Rhodochrosite will also make pattern lines more flexible. When pattern lines become rigid, they restrict the flow of life force to related areas in the physical body, thereby weakening the areas. When you wear Rhodochrosite, your pattern lines will begin to loosen until they move with your breath, thus allowing more life force to flow wherever it is needed.

Self-Confidence

Rhodochrosite mobilizes, encourages, and motivates you to change your patterns. At the same time, its energy instills you with self-confidence. As your patterns begin to change, you will become stronger. The realizations that you can change your emotions, patterns, and reactions— and with them, your life— will also give you tremendous self-confidence. Some people who wear Rhodochrosite feel this greater self-confidence almost immediately. Others may need to experience several behavioral changes before this new confidence is felt. Consequently, at first they may be a little unsure of themselves. Continuing to wear the Rhodochrosite will eventually build their self-confidence.

Healing Inner Conflict

At every moment, each of us is subject to the myriad influences, perspectives, and desires of our inner and outer aspects. Somehow we must manage the simultaneous demands of our physical, emotional, karmic, mental, and intuitive bodies as they strive to be expressed through our consciousness and actions. We manage this task by sorting through all these influences and categorizing them in some way. When, for some reason, our consciousness cannot categorize all these influences, inner conflicts develop. As the years go by, this collection of uncategorized influences grows, leading to a perpetual state of unresolved conflict. This conflict manifests as areas of tightness and stiffness in the physical body.

Rhodochrosite helps the physical body resolve the conflicts created by all the inner and outer influences trying to manifest through it. It encourages the physical and subtle bodies to work together with a singular focus as an integrated whole. In this way, Rhodochrosite affects the way we express ourselves and the very way we live.

The Benefits of Rhodochrosite Rondel Necklaces

Different sizes of Rhodochrosite gemstones resonate with different levels of your being. Therefore, a necklace of graduated Rhodochrosite rondels, which contain many different sizes, is able to affect many levels simultaneously.

In a graduated Rhodochrosite rondel necklace, the sizes change in small increments from gem to gem. This gradual change allows the gemstones’ energies to work together harmoniously as a single, unified field. Moreover, the rondel shape facilitates smooth and gentle coordination between the gems.

The effect is like a seamless series of musical notes that sound as one. You may experience this as a gentle ripple effect, as though the gems’ energy is moving through you in a wave made up of many small waves. Graduated Rhodochrosite rondels work more harmoniously together in a necklace than graduated spheres, since the Rhodochrosite spheres create larger, stronger, and more individualized waves.

This unified effect is different from the one produced by a Rhodochrosite necklace with several contrasting sizes of gems placed either side by side or randomly in the necklace. Such a necklace can sound too many different “notes” at once for the body to process without strain.

The energy of a graduated Rhodochrosite rondel necklace moves through your field gently and holistically. Its many small waves will reach your emotional body simultaneously, breaking up emotional patterns across your entire emotional spectrum. In this way, its work may be stronger and more effective than a necklace containing only one size of Rhodochrosite. Both necklaces will get the job done, but a necklace of graduated rondels will tend to do so more thoroughly and quickly. Its coordinated action is powerful and balanced.

Caution: Start Slowly

We recommend going slowly when you start wearing a solid necklace of graduated Rhodochrosite rondels. For the first week, wear it for no more than several hours a day, gradually increasing the time as you become accustomed to its energy and the changes it initiates.

Therapeutic Quality

Our new Rhodochrosite rondel necklaces are exceptionally high in quality, with rich pink color and a jelly-like translucency. Rhodochrosite’s characteristic white bands, which can sometimes diminish its jelly-like appearance, are barely visible in these rondels, and their regular distribution supports the even delivery of gems’ powerful energy.
