Are you a mother, a carer, a romantic or simply someone with a passion for pink and a soft spot for everything sparkly? If you’re any of these things, then this month’s featured gemstone is probably the perfect stone for you. Being a primary stone of the heart chakra, pink tourmaline is a gemstone that brings out a person’s nurturing, loving and compassionate nature, which makes it a popular stone amongst healers and social workers.
Also known as ‘Rubellite’ which is the Latin word for red, pink tourmaline ranges in colour from pale pinks to deep magentas. Because of this, deeper shades of pink tourmaline have often been mistaken throughout history to be rubies. A number of the rich red-ish gemstones of the Russian crown jewels for example, which for centuries had been thought to be rubies are now in fact believed to be tourmalines. Although frequently mistook for the more famous Ruby, the pink tourmaline gemstone is in no way less valuable than it’s crimson counterpart as in fact, pink tourmalines are even rarer than rubies!
Merely looking at the warm, pleasant hue of it stunning October birthstone it’s evident why pink tourmaline is believed to exude a comforting and soothing energy. Said to help relieve stress, provide emotional support to those in trouble, remedy motion-sickness and depression as well as aid in reconciliation and enhance feelings of love in relationships.
