History and Metaphysical Properties:

Kunzite is a pink and purple variety of the mineral spodumene with a chemical composition of lithium aluminum silicate. This variety of spodumene was discovered in Pala, California, in 1902 and was later named for the American gemologist George F. Kunz. It gets its color from traces of manganese and the pinker the stone, the more valuable it is.

This crystal is known as the “Stone of Emotion,” opening and connecting the heart to the mind. It encourages one to be receptive to the experience of unconditional and abundant love, and also helps to heal heartache from previous loss. Kunzite’s soothing power helps to calm nervousness. It is particularly supportive for young mothers as well.
