Fifty grams of rough celestite, about thirty little stones of around half an inch each.
Celestite, also called celestine, is a vitreous strontium sulfate mineral that forms inside certain geodes. It can be transparent or translucent, and its ethereal sky-blue comes from natural irradiation. The name comes from the Latin caelestis, the blue of the sky.
Altars & grids
Ring a candle, a figurine or a bigger crystal.
Scatter them across your meditation or prayer altar, or lay them out in a crystal grid for your intentions.
Set them around a larger crystal to steady it and frame its beauty; in crystal tradition, mini gemstones are said to amplify the stone they surround.
Around the home
Fill a shell, a pocket or a plant pot.
Pile them into a bowl or dish with seashells and other treasures, tuck them around the base of your plants and zen gardens, or keep a few in a pocket or pouch.
They also drop straight into our Gempod Water Bottles for gemstone-infused water.

A stone of the sky.
Celestite is linked in crystal tradition with spirituality, transformation and divine connection. It is said to vibrate at a very high energy, bringing a calm, soothing feeling, an elevated spirit and inner peace.
It is associated with angelic realms, divine power and higher consciousness, and is said to connect you with your guardian angels and help you recognise the signs along your path, from lucid dreams to déjà vu and astral projection. Long held to represent the deep secrets of the universe, its blue has tied it to the cosmos.
Crystals have been prized for centuries for their beauty and believed metaphysical properties; Spirit Magicka makes no guarantee of any mystical or healing effect.
