Angelite is a beautiful, light blue gemstone that is actually a variety of Anhydrite, a calcium sulphate mineral. It is formed from celestite that has been compressed over millions of years, resulting in its soft, ethereal blue colour that often features small white flecks or occasional reddish-brown inclusions.

Known as the "Stone of Awareness", it is highly regarded for its delicate, calming vibration and its historical association with angelic realms and spiritual guidance. Angelite is a powerful stone believed to facilitate deep peace, tranquillity, and a heightened sense of spiritual connection. It is thought to act as a bridge between the physical and celestial planes, helping to dispel fear, anger, and anxiety by replacing them with a sense of serenity. With its soothing energy, it encourages self-expression and helps you speak your truth with compassion and clarity, fostering a deeper sense of wholeness and emotional healing during challenging times.

Hardness: 3.5 on the Mohs scale (it is quite soft and should be handled with care).

Chakra: Throat Chakra (for communication), Third Eye Chakra (for intuition), and Crown Chakra (for spiritual connection).

Zodiac Sign: Aquarius.

Benefits: Promotes spiritual communication, enhances psychic healing and telepathy, provides a deep sense of peace and tranquillity, aids in honest self-expression, and helps alleviate feelings of overwhelming stress or grief.

How to use Angelite

Place it in your home: Keep a piece in the bedroom or a quiet meditation space to create a peaceful atmosphere. Its calming presence is excellent for promoting restful sleep and soothing the environment after a stressful day.

Meditate with it: Hold the stone or place it on your Throat Chakra during meditation to enhance your connection to spiritual guidance and inner wisdom. It helps quiet the mind, making it easier to receive intuitive insights.

Carry it: Keep a small tumbled stone in your pocket to stay calm and centred in high-stress environments. It serves as a gentle reminder to breathe and maintain emotional balance when things feel chaotic.

Wear it: As jewellery (such as a pendant or earrings) to support clear, compassionate communication and to keep its protective, uplifting energy within your aura throughout the day.

Use for balance: Use in healing rituals to release emotional blockages and encourage forgiveness. Because it is a form of Anhydrite, avoid getting it wet, as it may absorb water and eventually transform into Gypsum, losing its distinct Angelite properties.
