Rhodonite is a silicate of manganese and occasionally occurs as translucent to semi-opaque crystals, but usually forms as compact masses in colours of rose, red and pink with brown and red mottling and patches of black veining due to oxidation of the manganese. Rhodonite’s name derives from the Greek word meaning "rose-red". It was once mined in the Russian Ural mountains and is now found in Sweden, Australia, India, Madagascar, Mexico, South Africa, Brazil, Canada and the USA.
Rhodonite promotes the energy of love. In this case, the love is more outer-directed. This stone is one of altruism and generosity, using your talents to bring gifts to others.

Rhodonite has a gift to bring more love into the world by acting as a catalyst for the fulfilment of your life purpose, through the expression of your hidden gifts.

The chakras are the body's internal energy centres, and are aligned vertically near the spine. Energy enters the body through the head (heaven) and the base (earth). The seven chakras are vortex points where these forces mingle, with each producing a distinctive energy pattern. The purpose of these chakras is to absorb, transform and distribute the body's internal energy, known by terms such as prana, life force or chi. Specific organs and body parts are associated with each chakra, as well as corresponding behavioural, emotional and personality patterns. It is important to note that the chakras are in constant interplay, and cannot really be separated.
There have two extra chakras discovered recently; the Earth Star Chakra and the Soul Star Chakra, I have included a brief description of these in the page.
Human beings are not just the physical body. You have seven auric bodies. These seven unseen bodies are known as energy bodies, energy layers or auras. The seven non physical bodies aren't separate from the physical body, they are all interconnected with each other. The health of any of these bodies contributes toward the overall physical, mental, emotional and spiritual wellbeing of a person.
These energy bodies are affected by all aspects of your lifestyle. The energy that feeds them comes from outside and inside. Everything in your life influences these bodies. The health of these energy bodies depends on the amount and quality of prana or chi flowing through them which is generated in the Kundalini Line and Chakras.
When any one of the auric bodies is not working properly, it affects the other bodies and the physical body, as each body relies on the others to gather and distribute energy. read more
