Celestite Heart

Celestite, also known as Celestine, is a common strontium sulfate mineral that forms within certain geodes. Celestite crystallizes as small prismatic shards that are usually transparent. These shards are very fragile and often break off with very little force from the fingers. The colors of Celestite range from white, grey, green, orange, yellow, brown, and blue. This mineral was first discovered in 1799 by A.G. Werner and named from the Latin word “coelestis”, meaning “heavenly or celestial”. Most of the Celestite on the market today comes from Madagascar, but there notable specimens have also been found in the United States as well - specifically in Ohio (Crystal Cave), Michigan, Texas, and New York.

Celestite is a very high vibrational stone and is highly prized not only for its ethereal pale‑blue color and crystalline beauty but also its association with mental clarity and spiritual tranquility. It holds special significance for all who look to the light-filled heavens and experience a wonderful sense of peace, an elevation of spirit, and an overwhelming awareness of belonging, not just to mankind but to the universe and all that dwells there. Celestite’s delicate blue crystals reflect the many hues of our celestial dome and is perhaps the loveliest of the blue energy crystals. It is a powerful activator of the Throat Chakra, as well as the Third Eye and Crown Chakras, stimulating the spiritual senses and bringing a swift and dynamic connection to the higher realms. It is foremost a Stone of Heavenly Communication, particularly with the angelic realm, and is one of the most effective for connecting with one’s guardian angels or spirit guides.

This specific stone is a chunky specimen weighing in at 1007 grams and measuring approximately 3.5" wide and 4" tall.
