Rose Quartz is a powerful and versatile crystal. Not only does it mean that Rose Quartz can be used for a variety of healing purposes, but it also means that you can pair it with plenty of other crystals to enhance or slightly alter its effect.
It’s important to understand which crystals pair well with Rose Quartz and which do not.
This is because, even if two crystals seem to have similar effects or would complement each other, that doesn’t necessarily mean that their energy will resonate well.
The last thing you want to do is make your crystal therapy less effective by choosing the wrong crystal pairings.
Since Rose Quartz is one of the more popular crystals out there, it’s important to establish good pairings for this stone. So, today, we’ll be exploring which crystals to use with Rose Quartz!
The Best Crystals To Pair With Rose Quartz
1. Amethyst
Amethyst is known to be an excellent ‘all-round’ crystal with versatile healing powers, so it should come as no surprise that this beautiful purple stone is one of the best for pairing with Rose Quartz.
Amethyst is one of those crystals that does match up pretty well with Rose Quartz in terms of its properties, and while this doesn’t always mean that two crystals will work well together, in this case, it’s a perfect match.
Like Rose Quartz, Amethyst is a bringer of tranquility. It also removes negative and destructive emotions such as anger and irritability, so if you’re looking for ways to make your relationships more peaceful, this crystal combination is an excellent choice.
Amethyst is also capable of strengthening emotional connections, so not only can it be used with Rose Quartz to make existing relationships more harmonious, but it can also take acquaintances to the next level, deepening emotional bonds and transforming them into friendship.
Neither Amethyst nor Rose Quartz are limited to healing your external relationships, however. You can use these crystals together to deepen your spiritual connections and work on your intuition.
This will help you to get in touch with the spiritual side of yourself and improve your decision-making skills.
2. Black Obsidian
Black Obsidian and Rose Quartz don’t look at all alike, but this just goes to show that sometimes, opposites attract.
We love working with Black Obsidian because it’s connected to the Root Chakra as well as the element of Earth, which makes it a highly effective grounding stone.
The reason it combines so well with Rose Quartz is because both are great at getting rid of negative emotions and promoting feelings of safety and tranquility.
Using Black Obsidian and Rose Quartz together can help you to surmount virtually any obstacle in your path, emotionally speaking.
That’s because Rose Quartz helps to balance your emotions, ensuring that you don’t become weighed down by negative emotions, but don’t suppress them, either.
Meanwhile, Black Obsidian tackles particularly heavy emotions such as grief and resentment.
If you’re looking for emotional and spiritual protection when venturing into spiritual realms, Rose Quartz and Black Obsidian is the ideal crystal combination.
Not only will these crystals help you to have a deeper and more fulfilling spiritual experience, but they’ll protect you from psychic attacks as you go exploring.
3. Malachite
Malachite and Rose Quartz are both stunning crystals, and the good news is that they work really well together. This is partly because both crystals share a deep connection to the Heart Chakra.
Combining Malachite with Rose Quartz is an effective way to dispel negative energy and leave positive vibrations in their place.
This is really useful if there are emotional wounds you’re trying to heal and move past because the calming effect of both of these crystals will help to relieve anxiety, sadness, and general mood instability.
4. Citrine
The healing properties of Citrine make it almost as popular as Rose Quartz with those who are building a crystal collection.
In our opinion, if you’re going to get yourself a Rose Quartz crystal, you should also get Citrine because they’re independently very powerful and emotionally beneficial crystals, but they also work beautifully together.
Both of these crystals create emotional balance, so the combination works well if you’re struggling to maintain a sense of peace in your life, especially if this is being exacerbated by mental health conditions such as anxiety and depression.
If you find that you’re being hard on yourself or struggling to forgive yourself and move on from the past, using Rose Quartz and Citrine together might be a good idea because both exude a warm energy that promotes self-forgiveness, confidence, and fulfillment.
One way in which Citrine differs from Rose Quartz is that it’s concerned with business and wealth. That’s why it’s often referred to as the ‘Merchant Stone’.
However, pairing Citrine with Rose Quartz if you’re looking for success in business or your career is actually a great idea because being career-focused can sometimes impact your personal relationships negatively.
Using Rose Quartz along with Citrine will help to ensure that your personal relationships continue to thrive during your professional successes.
5. Selenite
We think that Selenite and Rose Quartz is one of the best crystal pairings out there. Both are crystals of positivity, tranquility, and love, so we like to incorporate this pairing into self-love meditations and Heart, Throat, or Crown Chakra work.
Selenite and Rose Quartz will both help you on your spiritual journey. This is because Selenite is linked to the Crown Chakra while Rose Quartz has a strong Heart Chakra connection, so you can gain insight into the spiritual realm while staying in tune with your own emotions.
Opening your consciousness while experiencing feelings of love and warmth is a beautiful experience.
These two crystals can also be a useful crystal combination if you’re struggling to feel okay about your current circumstances. In trying times, it’s easy to get overwhelmed and feel unable to see the positives.
Selenite and Rose Quartz will help you to feel gratitude no matter what your circumstances are.
The great thing about Selenite is that it’s a cleansing crystal, and this means that it can be paired with a multitude of other crystals.
6. Lapis Lazuli
Lapis Lazuli and Rose Quartz are both known to be great crystals for building and strengthening friendships. This means that using them together will increase your chances of building strong interpersonal relationships.
The reason the Rose Quartz and Lapis Lazuli combination works so well for strengthening relationships is because Rose Quartz helps you to develop compassion and kindness for others and yourself, while Lapis Lazuli promotes the ability to express yourself and communicate.
These things together form a strong foundation for great relationships.
You can use Lapis Lazuli along with Rose Quartz to first understand your own emotions and then communicate them to others.
This means that not only will you build stronger relationships with others, but also with yourself due to increased self-awareness.
7. Clear Quartz
Clear Quartz (see also ‘All About Clear Quartz: Properties, Meaning, Healing & More‘), like Citrine, is a cleansing stone, so it also pairs well with Rose Quartz, but that’s not the only reason we like to use these crystals alongside one another.
Both Rose Quartz and Clear Quartz promote kindness and compassion, so if you’re looking to improve your relationship with yourself or be more empathetic towards others, this crystal pairing works like a charm.
Additionally, because both of these crystals have soothing effects, the combination is good for promoting a clear and peaceful state of mind, which is ideal if you’re trying to process emotions or simply be in tune with yourself without the chaos of difficult emotions.
8. Rhodonite
If you’re working through difficult emotions right now or trying to process and move on from trauma, Rhodonite is an excellent choice of crystal.
When used alongside Rose Quartz, the balancing effects of Rhodonite are combined with a sense of tranquility and peace, which is the perfect combination of effects for healing.
Rhodonite and Rose Quartz is an especially powerful combination if you want to open up your Heart Chakra because both are deeply connected to this Chakra.
If you meditate with both of these crystals, you’ll find that you are more connected to your emotions and are able to gain a deeper understanding of yourself while feeling safe and reassured.
Those going through grief can also benefit from the combination of Rhodonite and Rose Quartz. This is due to the high vibrations of love and peace that radiate from both crystals, which will help to support you through hard times.
9. Carnelian
Carnelian is a striking, red-orange crystal that is known for building confidence (see also, ‘10 Best Crystals for Confidence‘), love, and sexuality. Rose Quartz, of course, is a crystal of peace and love.
Therefore, when used together, these crystals can help to strengthen and evolve your relationships, especially romantic relationships.
If you struggle to get in touch with your sexual energy, which is a common problem both inside and outside of relationships, Carnelian will give you the confidence boost you need to explore that side of yourself.
Meanwhile, the gentle and loving energy of Rose Quartz will mean that you feel safe and secure in doing so and fully appreciate yourself in the moment.
Rose Quartz and Carnelian is often a recommended pairing for those who are trying to conceive. Obviously, the sexual, confident energy of Carnelian helps with this, but so does the gentle and accepting energy of Rose Quartz.
It’s often said that anxiety can stand in the way of conception, so the soothing energy of the light pink crystal will help you here.
Carnelian and Rose Quartz is a multipurpose crystal combination. In addition to helping with confidence, sexuality and conception, it can also help to heal trauma and emotional wounds.
10. Red Jasper
Our final recommended crystal for pairing with Rose Quartz is Red Jasper. Red Jasper is a protective stone that can help to calm your nerves.
If you suffer from anxiety or have something coming up that you’re nervous about, Red Jasper and Rose Quartz will help to carry you through.
If you’re seeking more intimacy in your life, especially if you’re in a relationship, Red Jasper and Rose Quartz will help you to connect to your partner(s) physically in intimate ways while maintaining strong emotional connections.
Red Jasper and Rose Quartz can also be helpful if you’re sick or having a hard time in your life. Both of these crystals promote a balance of emotions as well as inner strength.
