How to use Opal, Pink

Hold Pink Opal over your heart during meditation, breathing into its soft pink light. Visualize a gentle cascade of water washing away tension and inviting self-compassion.

At home

Crystal water

Because Pink Opal is porous and not fully water-safe, do not immerse it directly. Instead, place the stone in a glass bowl or jar, then set that bowl inside a larger container of water, creating an indirect elixir. Let it sit overnight in moonlight.
