Best Crystals for cultivating forgiveness + Technique
The other week I was floored with anger. I truly felt like someone was stepping on my toes and did an action that I would never even conceive of doing to anyone. I was on fire and furious. From here, I started to create my own drama. How could she have even done that? I would never do that. What the heck? My words would circulate over and over in my head.
I felt like she didn’t intentionally mean to “step on me” however that’s how I perceived it. Why didn’t she think of me? I was floored so I let it rest for a while. As time was passing, I stuffed it down in the good old sacral chakra. And in the meantime, I started to experience throat stabbing pains. I knew it wasn’t really physical but my body communicating that I needed to speak up.
So, I did the best thing I know how. I avoided the “attacker” and tried to express my concerns to someone else. Even after some time, I exploded. My feelings were not resolved but repressed. I still held onto that anger as if it was the day I found out the information. After twenty minutes of being in my own muck, I decided to make a conscious choice. I decided to let go.
When we first start to release, forgive and more on, it can be challenging. Starting off with the little stuff will help prepare you for the big stuff later to come. How about that person that took your parking spot and made you cringe? How about the drive-thru person who mixed up your order? The small stuff needs to be released too.

I took time to process my emotions and bring to the surface a higher vibration to heal. I needed to be released from my own anger.
The technique I’m about to tell you can be used for many situations. I have used it for the past healing and even most current day-to-day situations. Its very effective, very powerful an can upgrade you to rainbows and peace. That’s the goal – to release.
Rose quartz is a great stone for self-love but its also a great stone for forgiveness. You can also add apache tear (helps you release repressed tears) and/or sugilite. Emotionally, sugilite helps release hostility, anger, forgiveness and even emotions of despair.
Step 1
Find a comfortable and calm place to do your forgiveness meditation in a seated position. Place your rose quartz in front of you if large in size or hold it in your hand. If you are also using sugilite and/or apache tears place them behind you to allow the emotions to drift out of you.
Step 2
Place one hand on your heart chakra and close your eyes. Chant or say a mantra to get you in the vibration of forgiveness. Personally, I like to chant the mantra “YAM” over and over until I get into that space. You can try saying affirmations such as, “I allow forgiveness to enter my heart,” or “I am ready to be healed. I am willing to forgive.” Whatever feels right and good to you. This is your own personal journey.
Step 3
With your eyes closed, visualize the person or situation that you want to forgive. Bring them forward to you. At this point, I can’t really tell you “what to do” but I can share with your what I do. I wrap the vision of the person in pink ribbon. This pink ribbon swirls around them encasing them in love. You decide how you want to show them love. You can give them a flower, hold a conversation..whatever feels right to you.
Step 4
Bring yourself to your mind. Don’t skip this step! Wrap yourself up in the same amount of love that you did for that other person/situation. You are now sharing a heart to heart connection with this person. Sometimes I see both
Step 5
Bring forth the vibration of gratitude in your heart chakra. Thank the person for helping you learn something about yourself. Thank them for the experience of bringing forth a positive change within you. Its hard to believe but you can move into this space. Thank the Universe for this opportunity of growth.
As for my situation, I gave my friend lots of love. I let the judgement pass and the results of my situation turned out better than I thought in the first place. I was able to discuss the situation without fuming inside. I was able to be honest and direct with how I felt without having the resistance within myself. It felt good to express my truth honestly without the hurt, anger and betrayal feelings. It felt really good to honor myself and clear up my throat chakra. 😉
With much love and light,
Amber
