What Powers Does Rhodonite Have?
A crystal's powers come from the healing properties that they're associated. Rhodonite, also known as the stone of compassion, has four healing properties.

The first healing property associated with Rhodonite is deep love. It is believed that this crystal can help a person get past the surface and deeply feel love for themselves and for others.
Rhodonite crystals can introduce a new understanding that you have for yourself and for the people in your life that you love. This would be perfect for a couple that's just entered a new relationship, for a parent trying to better understand their teenager, and for someone that's trying to reconnect with themselves.

A person in a position of power would benefit greatly from wearing Rhodonite crystal jewelry. Generosity is absolutely a great quality in a leader—you would want your boss, a parent, or someone who leads a club you're part of to show generosity towards you and your peers.

How to Activate Rhodonite Crystals

There's not necessarily a way to 'activate' a crystal. Instead, there is prep you can do to make sure your crystal is ready for your healing practice.
Crystals are powered by energy—energy from you and your surrounding environment. This means that during the process of shipping and handling, your crystal will come into contact with a lot of different people and environments that might end up charging your crystal with negative energy.
To ensure that you are getting the best experience out of your crystal as possible, you will want to engage with one of the following cleansing methods to get rid of any negative energy surrounding your crystal:
- Wash it with soapy water. Rhodonite is a water-safe crystal which means you can use water to cleanse it of negative energy. For this method, get lukewarm soapy water and a soft cloth. Wash your crystal element in the water with the cloth for a few minutes. Make sure you rinse off any soap and allow your Rhodonite to completely dry before you begin wearing it.
- Run it under a stream. There is another water method you can use if you want something that's a little quicker than method one. You can also just hold your Rhodonite crystal jewelry under a stream of cold water for a couple of minutes. Again, make sure your crystal is completely dry before you begin to wear it.
- Charge it in morning light. The final method you can use for cleansing your Rhodonite crystal jewelry is to charge it in the morning light. The sun is a powerful source of energy. It's recommended that you leave your Rhodonite crystal in the rays of the morning light. Make sure you limit your crystal's exposure to the sun for an hour or less. Leaving your crystal in the sun for too long can alter its color.
As you regularly wear your element, you will need to cleanse it every once in a while to get rid of any negative energy you come into contact with in your daily life. You can use any of the methods listed above every month or so.
Emotional Healing With Your Rhodonite Crystal Jewelry
Now that you’ve gotten rid of any negative energy, it’s time to start your emotional healing journey.
The first step to crystal healing in general is to keep an open mind about the possible outcomes. If you’re harboring any skepticism about crystal healing, you might prohibit your Rhodonite from being fully effective.
Once you’ve primed your mind to what your Rhodonite could be capable of, you’ll want to set an intention for how you’d like to engage in crystal healing. Your intention should be specific and related to the associations and properties listed above.
For Rhodonite, you might consider setting an intention to start putting yourself first in different facets of your life. You could also consider setting an intention to recognize what wasn’t working for you in previous relationships to move towards a healthier future.
Once you’ve decided what your intention is going to be, hold your element in your hands and speak that intention into it. This will help guide the Rhodonite to comply with your specific use intent. As you wear the element, keep your intention in mind and make decisions that align with it.
