Blue Calcite Natural | Medium

For a stretch that's been heavy, and needs to move again.

Calcite comes in more colours than almost any other mineral — orange, honey, blue, green, optical clear — and each carries its own character. What they share is softness. Calcite scratches with a copper coin, forms in rounded shapes rather than sharp points, and fizzes if you put acid on it.

Optical calcite has a trick worth knowing: look through a clear piece at a line of text and you'll see it doubled. That's double refraction, and it's why Viking navigators may have used it as a sunstone to locate the sun through cloud.

Calcite is worked with for clearing stagnant energy and for renewal — less about force, more about letting things move again. Which chakra it sits with depends on colour: orange for the sacral, honey for the solar plexus, blue for the throat, green for the heart.

Sheri chooses every piece by hand, cleanses it, and charges it before it's packed here on the Gold Coast.
