Mineralogical and Metaphysical Properties of Celestite Celestite is a fairly soft transparent to translucent pale blue sedimentary mineral composed of Strontium Sulfate. Originally discovered in the United States, during the excavation of the Erie Canal in New York, beautiful Celestite specimens have also been found in Ohio and California. The name "celestite" comes from the Latin word "caelestis" meaning "of the sky", and refers to the sky-blue coloration of this lovely mineral. It is found often in geodes with tabular and orthorhombic formations which appear to be prismatic depending on the light and formation. Celestite is a beautiful crystal most frequently seen in its celestial blue color but can also appear white, yellow, orange, red and red-brown. It is a wonderful stone for healing. Celestite can elevate the energy within its environment. We use celestite all over our home to introduce a feeling of peace and harmonize conflicting energies. The blue coloration itself is quite soothing to look upon and has a definite effect in any room in which it is placed. Celestite is good for mental activities. Celestite can synchronize the egoistic mind with higher aspects of your Divine Nature, promoting mental balance and helping you to achieve a peaceful, tranquil mental state. Celestite is above all a good communication stone and can promote clairaudient communication with the angelic realms. Vishuddha or Throat Chakra, from C.W. Leadbeater's book The Chakras,  C. W. Leadbeater, Public domain, via Wikimedia Commons That's not surprising because celestite resonates with the energy of the throat chakra, which is associated with the color blue in the Western chakra system. Celestite stimulates, energizes, and cleanses the throat chakra, facilitating communications activities of all kinds, and strengthening the connection between the throat chakra and the third eye chakra, infusing our communications with the wisdom and love found in the Higher Self when the third eye is fully activated. Celestite enhances the bearer's ability to speak their own truth in such a way that it is easy for others to accept and understand. Celestite is said to infuse the user's mind with the ideal of service to the world, and to help the user develop a strong commitment to furthering the spiritual development of all humanity.
