Pink Heart. Andean Pink Opal heart pendant on Aqua Goshenite and Strawberry Quartz beads. 18 3/4 inches
Pink Heart will leave you feeling pretty in pink! I used an Andean Pink Opal Heart pendant set in Sterling Silver and strung it on some Aqua Goshenite discs with graduated Strawberry quartz faceted rondelles. The clasp is a Sterling Silver toggle round twist and there are Delica Glass spacers too. It's 18 3/4 inches long. The heart pendant is 5/16" wide and long.
Opal is October's birthstone. As per crystalstones.com, "The stone connects primarily to the Heart (Anahata) chakra, carrying Water energy. Commercial material comes from Peru, Australia, and USA, and provenance shows: pieces from different deposits vary in saturation, veining, and clarity, which is why no two specimens of Pink Opal read quite alike.
Pink Opal is a common opal in gentle rose-to-salmon tones, most famously from the Andes of Peru, soft and milky without play-of-color. Keep it somewhere you will come across it on a bad evening, and let the milky pink be a consolation that asks nothing of you. In my practice many people use Pink Opal for emotional healing, releasing old grief, and renewing self-kindness. As a hydrated opal it can dry out and craze, so I keep it away from long soaks, salt, and heat.
Also catalogued as Peruvian Pink Opal and Andean Pink Opal, Pink Opal earns its place in a working collection by being usable: start with heart healing, the job it is best known for, and let the stone widen its own brief from there.
Every entry on the Pink Opal property sheet points toward connection: heart healing, self-love, calm, and stress relief. The heart stones specialize in easing rather than driving, and many people find the first shift shows up in their own self-talk. Hold the list loosely; it is a place to start, not a guarantee."
firemountaingems.com says, "Goshenite is a colorless variety of the mineral beryl, and gets its name from the small town of Goshen, Massachusetts, where it was first discovered. Referred to as the "Mother of Crystals," goshenite meaning is also associated with motherhood. Goshenite was once used for the manufacturing of eyeglasses because of its excellent transparency. Though the gem value is relatively low, it is most commonly used for gemstone or metaphysical purposes, and considered as a source of beryllium.

Goshenite is believed to develop practical thought when making decisions, helping one see an argument from all angles and then take appropriate action.
