Blue Calcite
Our guided blue calcite meditation guides you on a calming journey to cleanse your mind, awaken intuition, and step into your creative expression.
The Story of Blue Calcite
Born through slow percolation and crystallization through the caverns and caves of the Earth, blue calcite is a soft, gentle stone to help you slow down, calm down, and drop into the steady flow of divine energy. Like a blue cocoon of light for your psyche and soul to rest in, blue calcite is emotionally stabilizing and mentally cleansing to help you find comfort and clarity within yourself.
Calcites are very common and found all over the world, but blue calcite is the rarest form of all and is only found in a few places on Earth. A calcium-based stone, think of calcium’s ability to strengthen the bones within your body, to slow breakdown and degeneration, and its ability to soothe your nerves, as well as calm heartburn and indigestion. These properties can help you begin to understand the metaphysical magic that blue calcite holds in its ability to strengthen, slow, soothe, and calm your heightened emotional state, mental chaos, and nervous overwhelm.
It helps with sensory overload and general stress, tension, and irritability while moving through life. When things feel loud, jarring, or overpowering to you, blue calcite can help calm and balance out your sensitivity so you can find inner equilibrium wherever you are. If you consider yourself an empath or someone who easily absorbs the emotional energy of others, blue calcite can help you create a soft but strong emotional boundary so you don’t take on energy that doesn’t belong to you.
Inspiring calm communication and heightened intuitive awareness, you’re able to speak your truth with ease and understanding, in a way that others can receive, when you work with blue calcite. It brings gentleness, empathy, and consideration to your communication, helping you see how your thoughts and words truly create your world. It’s a great stone for writers, artists, speakers of any sort, and those who want to calmly, creatively communicate their ideas to others. You can use it to help you overcome mental blocks and reconnect with your creative muse.
When you’re stuck in doom-scrolling or focusing on all the worst possible outcomes, only seeing what’s wrong in your life and in the world in general, blue calcite can help you release the negative scenarios playing in your mind and refocus on positive potentials and outcomes. It allows you to see through the clouds of catastrophe, into the blue skies of possibility that exist, bringing peace, serenity, and gentleness to all areas of your life.
Blue Calcite Healing Properties
Element
Fire
Fire is the element of creativity, action, and inspiration, and blue calcite lights this fire of insight in your mind. It’s not a roaring fire filled with orange flames; rather, it’s the flickering blue flame of truth, inner vision, and mental clarity. It’s a fire that burns away the pessimistic, cynical, fatalistic beliefs to reveal inspiration, positivity, and the power you have to create the reality of your choosing.
Blue calcite stokes you into taking action in expressing your truth, and can help you reconnect with your creative muse. It’s able to fight fire with fire, focusing its blue flame on the inner fires of anger, irritability, frustration, and angst before they go wild, to bring more control and balance to your emotional reactions and return you to a state of calm clarity.
Element
Air
Blue calcite holds the Air of communication, where words and thoughts dwell. It expands and enlivens the mind, bringing clarity and ease to your thinking patterns and ability to express yourself effectively. Its Air is like a gentle breeze to subtly but surely shake loose the past perceptions and ways of thinking that’ve kept you in a state of discomfort or discontent. It will softly blow away the clouds of your mental landscape so you can see the blue skies beyond, where the solutions and creative ideas lie.
A beautiful stone to use for communication of all sorts, blue calcite carves a clear pathway from your highest awareness to the center of your mind, allowing your thoughts and words to be expressed with truth, grace, and gentleness. It’s an easy, breezy energy that clears away what’s cluttered and complicated, returning you to peace, calm, and inner balance.
Chakra
Throat
A gentle throat chakra opener, blue calcite helps the energy here flow, gently clearing out the cobwebs and constrictions around your communication. It enhances your ability to clearly, easily express yourself and allows your truth to flow with gentleness and grace. It’s a stone of understanding and empathy that helps you better hear others as well as communicate in a way that encourages people to be receptive to what you have to say.
The blue flame of calcite burns away the fears you may have around speaking up, expressing yourself, or being misunderstood. It’s a beautiful stone for speakers of any sort, writers, artists, or anytime you want to open your throat chakra to express your ideas and communicate your thoughts clearly.
It helps you speak with the Divine and become a clear conduit for inspiration and ideas to flow that are aligned with your higher vision. It allows you to feel more comfortable and confident in expressing your insights with others, sharing spiritual knowledge, and translating your astral visions and dreams into words of wisdom.
Chakra
Third Eye
The seat of our inner awareness, the third eye chakra encompasses the mind as well as the physical brain. It’s the land of our thoughts, ideas, dreams, and imagination, and when it’s blocked or out of balance in some way, we can feel mentally cluttered or stifled, confused or unsure, directionless and pessimistic. Blue calcite is a balm to soothe all of these wounds.
You can use it to gently remove blockages in the third eye chakra to enhance mental clarity and the easy flow of ideas and insights from your highest self and the planes of Spirit. It can help open and awaken your psychic awareness and inner vision, increasing clairvoyance, telepathy, and psychic communication with your guides, angels, and other higher-dimensional beings.
It calms and settles a cluttered mind filled with anxious thoughts, helping you to better tune into the flow of divine inspiration, bringing ahas, insights, clarity, and truth. It links this activated and clear third eye chakra with your throat chakra, so those truths and insights can be expressed into the world, through your words, deeds, creativity, and whole way of being.
Energetic Qualities
Cleansing
This cleansing blue stone clears dense, heavy energies from the body, settles and soothes nervous, frenetic, and erratic energies, and releases and removes the barriers to your self-expression. It cleanses your entire aura like a cool breeze blowing the cloudy, cluttered energies away, surrounding you in a cocoon of cleansing blue light.
Softening
A very soft stone, blue calcite also brings softness in a metaphysical sense, gently soothing the rough and hard edges of your life, your emotions, and your way of thinking. It feels comforting, bringing gentleness to your approach, eliciting your empathy, softening your hardened walls and inner blocks so that you can express your truth and truly hear others as well.
Cooling
Blue calcite is cooling in nature for the mind, body, and emotions. In Daoist stone medicine, it’s said to clear “liver heat,” which can manifest as anger, irritability, and inflammation in the body. Blue calcite moves heated energy outward, while drawing cooling energy inward, bringing relief, calm, and ease.
Physical Properties
Appearance
Blue calcite is often found in a light powdery blue shade, often mixed with white from the limestone deposits it’s found in. It can also be found in medium or darker blues like the oceans, or in aqua hues like the Caribbean Sea. It has a waxy, shiny, smooth texture and is most often opaque. In its raw form, it’s found in large chunks, but can be easily cut, shaped, and polished. It forms in large masses and is commonly found in caves as stalactites and stalagmites.
Its blue color relates to truth, expansion, and freedom. It’s the blue of expression and honesty, and relates to the divine realms of Spirit and the heavens above. Blue calcite helps to bring those higher, divine energies of clear inspiration and positive light down to the Earth’s surface, and into your body and mind.
Composition
A calcium carbonate, the calcium in blue calcite is soothing, pacifying, and strengthening, which lends to the physical and metaphysical effects it has on the body. A carbonate is formed when carbon and oxygen combine with other minerals, and metaphysically, they help regulate growth. Blue calcite’s cooling effect will slow down and stabilize rapid growth or erratic, unstable energies. It also has trace elements of manganese or copper, which create its distinct blue shade.
It has a trigonal crystal structure, which relates to the element of fire and stoking creativity, but it doesn’t form structured crystals; instead, it takes on the growth habit of the surrounding stones in its immediate environment, which shows its ability to adapt to any situation. This is a perfect metaphor for its metaphysical attributes that help us adapt to the stressors in our environment and feel calm wherever we are.

Using Blue Calcite in Everyday Life
Manifestation
When you feel creatively blocked, unsure, or uninspired, blue calcite can open the flow for creative ideas and solutions to come in. When you’re focusing on manifesting something specifically in your life, blue calcite can help you focus on the positive outcomes and endless possibilities that exist, and release the mental and emotional blocks and patterns that may currently be inhibiting you from reaching that potential.
An amazing stone for speaking your reality into creation, blue calcite reminds you that you can use your words to create your world- you already are. So, when you speak with consciousness and clarity about what is true for you and what your soul desires, and stay in a positive mindset about the future ahead, you are much more likely to manifest what you do want, rather than what you don’t. Blue calcite is a tool to help you do exactly that.
Try writing out your intentions while you hold blue calcite or have it near, and then speak those intentions aloud, directly into your stone. Then carry the crystal with you or keep it near you, and use it as a touchstone to remind you of those intentions you spoke into it. Whenever you’re feeling frustrated, negative, or stressed out about what hasn’t happened yet, hold this blue calcite up to your heart or forehead, breathe, speak your intentions out loud again, and feel into the calm knowing that your words are creating the world you experience.
Love & Relationship
Blue calcite is a beautiful stone to bring empathy and honesty into your communication, and can help you talk through disagreements in relationships. It helps you navigate tense situations with calm conversations, so you can express your thoughts, feelings, and truth in a gentle way that can be better heard and received by others. It can be a great stone to use in negotiations or mediation in business or personal relationships, to bring calm discourse, compromise, and solutions that feel beneficial for all. It helps you stay more emotionally neutral and level-headed when speaking with others or trying to communicate a point.
Its calming frequency soothes and protects you from the hostile, aggressive, angry, or overwhelming energies of people you encounter in your life. It can neutralize the effects of those energies so you can remain calm and centered in yourself and not take on or react to their emotions in a detrimental way. You can use it to release grudges and old wounds, and to realize and release the relationships that are toxic for you, those where honest and loving communication can’t be had. It will help you set clear boundaries as to what you will and won’t accept in your relationships going forward.
Keep a blue calcite slab, sphere, or tower in a room where people gather, such as your living area or office, to cleanse the whole space and aid in communication between all who enter there. You can also give it as a gift to someone you want to foster better, clearer communication with. Carry it or wear it as a necklace throughout the day to maintain your emotional boundaries in relationships. They’re also great, inexpensive stones for sensitive children to carry with them in their bag or pocket during the day to stay calm and energetically cocooned.
Physical Healing
Blue calcite has a beautiful relationship with the physical throat and brain, and can be useful for breaking up a sore throat, swollen tonsils, and helping balance thyroid conditions. It also benefits the brain, calming and settling neurological conditions, seizures, anxiety, and nervous system burnout.
It cools and calms issues of heat in the body, which can manifest as inflammation, pain, or high blood pressure. And, because of its calcium content, it’s said to help increase calcium absorption in the bones and teeth. You can wear it as a necklace or bracelet daily to help with this effect, or sleep with it under your pillow at night.
You can also place or tape it directly onto areas of pain, strain, tension, or inflammation in the body, and rest with it there for a while. It can be especially good for headaches and sore throats. You can also simply hold it in your hands while breathing slowly for 30 minutes to calm anxiety attacks, nervousness, or hypertension, or sit with a blue calcite placed beneath your feet to serve the same purpose.
Self Care
Blue calcite is excellent to have as a palm stone, as it feels heavy and smooth, comforting you like a blanket of calming energy simply by holding it in your hands. Try holding one in your palm for about 30 minutes for anxiety, stress, nervousness, worry, agitation, frustration, or any emotions that feel amped up and like they’re taking over. Any time you feel hyper, hectic, frazzled, or overwhelmed in any way, blue calcite can calm, cool, and slow you down.
It’s also a great stone for mental health and rewriting the patterns of self-deprication and negative self-talk. It brings your conscious awareness to your thoughts so you can become more aware of how you’re talking and thinking about yourself in your mind, as how you move through the world and who you become is largely based on what you say about yourself. Blue calcite will help you learn to speak more kindly and gently towards yourself, and see that gentleness reflected back to you in life.
It’s a perfect crystal to use with affirmations- simply hold it and speak your positive thoughts and intentions into it. It will absorb and carry their frequency into the ethers, and help you stay in the inspiring flow of their energy, focused on all the possibilities ahead. You can also put your bare feet on a big slab of blue calcite or on a soft palm stone to help relieve anxiety and allow its calming, soothing energy to move all the way up through your body from your toes all the way up to your head.
Sleep & Dreamwork
One of the best stones to sleep with, blue calcite helps to calm and relax your body and still your mind, so you can gently drift off to sleep and stay asleep through the night. Its gentle vibration is very conducive to sleeping with, as it’s not overstimulating in any way. It can help with insomnia and restlessness when you sleep with it on a bedside table at night or under your pillow.
Sleeping with it under your pillow will also enhance and increase your dreams, and help you better understand the subconscious messages they contain. You may find yourself communicating with angels, guides, and other Spirit messengers in your dreams, or working through the subconscious roots that lie beneath your conscious struggles. Blue calcite brings more clarity and retention to your dreams so you can remember them, better interpret their messages, and incorporate their wisdom in your waking life.
It also helps specifically with nightmares, to bring more positive dreams that feel pleasant and comforting. It’s a great, gentle stone to keep in a kid’s room or under their pillow to help them rest well and have sweet dreams.
Intuitive Development
Blue calcite enhances clairvoyance and psychic vision, allowing you to see more clearly through your mind’s eye and get ideas, insights, solutions, and knowledge that seem to just pop into your mind, often through mental images. It also helps you communicate and express the intuitive visions and insights you receive without fear or reservation, with gentleness and understanding.
It’s said to increase telepathy and psychic communication, where you’re able to know how someone is feeling or what they’re thinking without having to actually take on that energy yourself. It acts like a psychic cushion in a way, to create a soft barrier between your energetic body and that of others, while tapping into the greater Mind that connects us all. This effect can also help you communicate with other energies, such as animals, plant spirits and other nature guides, spirit guides, angels, and other higher-dimensional beings.
People often use it to induce astral travel and lucid dreaming, to connect with and explore other dimensions and realities. Blue calcite does aid with this in a very gentle way, so it is a great stone to work with if you’re just beginning in these sorts of astral explorations. Hold it in your palms, or place it over your third eye in the center of your forehead as you rest and breathe. Set your intention for your blue calcite, what or where you’d like it to help you explore, and begin to let your imagination gently carry you away into different planes.
Meditation
A really great stone for meditation, blue calcite aids in bringing your mind to stillness and peace so you can reach deeper and higher levels of awareness and inner stillness. Incredibly calming for overstimulation, reach for blue calcite when it feels especially difficult to sit down and settle into yourself and the present moment. It will slow you down, calm you down, and help you surrender to what is.
As you meditate with it, you’ll notice its cleansing and uplifting effects, and its connection with the astral often brings divine insights, downloads, information, and ahas while you sit with it. Simply hold it in your hands, or place it on your lap, or you can lie down with your blue calcite over your throat chakra at your collarbone, or over the third eye in the center of your forehead. Breathe and tune into its gentle, calming frequency while you envision its blue light spreading out and wrapping all around you like a cocoon.

Zodiac Signs & Ruling Planet
Cancer
A beautiful stone to soothe the emotional body, blue calcite enhances and balances Cancerian energy, smoothing out the big waves of emotion and helping you access your innate intuition. When you feel stressed, overwhelmed, or are ruminating on the past, blue calcite can be the life raft to pull you out of the deep end of your feelings and help you refocus on empowered thoughts and express your emotions creatively.
Pisces
This is a great stone for those who are energetically sensitive or feel like sponges soaking up the emotions of those around them, which is a very Piscean quality. Blue calcite provides a gentle cocoon of protection around your energy field, softening the incoming stimulus of information and emotions from the outside world, and helping you access the insight and answers from your higher awareness without interruption or corruption.
Libra
The balancing and pacifying effects of blue calcite greatly resonate with the archetypal energies of Libra. This also brings in the Air element that blue calcite holds, helping us communicate with truth and grace, and strive for compromise and mediation between disparate points of view. It’s a great stone for anyone who needs to be able to see from both sides of the coin and stay emotionally neutral to come to a fair decision.
Neptune

Sabian Symbol
Sabian Symbol
{The Sabian symbols are a set of channeled mental images that describe the energy associated with each degree of the zodiac wheel. Each Sabian symbol has been linked to a crystal that embodies the frequency and essence of that symbol’s energy.}
A Swimming Race
Phase 169, Virgo 19°
Bring this image to your mind of diving into the waters and swimming with the flow of its currents, moving forward through the force of a concentrated group effort, where the people you’re racing against can also be seen as those who are inspiring you to be your best and reach your greatest potential.
The waters can be seen as a metaphor for your emotions, and blue calcite is like the life vest that allows you to easily stay afloat, no matter how rough or overwhelming that ocean of emotions gets. It helps you move towards what you want to achieve by following the flow of life, rather than trying to swim against it.
The water in this symbol also represents cleansing and purification, as blue calcite helps you wash away the patterns of the past as you swim forward into the future. It’s also symbolic of the intuitive, psychic realms of consciousness that we’re all swimming through together, and our need to concentrate our efforts and stay clear on our vision so we don’t drown in the process of our own spiritual evolution. Blue calcite helps you access the clarity of these intuitive realms and steer clear of any obstacles along the way.
Tarot Cards
Temperance
The Temperance card is a major arcana card representing harmony, peace, patience, inner balance, and calm- all the same sort of qualities that blue calcite imbues within us. It’s a card that suggests the moderation of extremes, staying clear in your vision, and moving forward with slow, steady progress. It implies the need to create inner and outer balance, between your body and mind, between yourself and others, and blue calcite is an amazing tool to help you do just that.
Temperance underlies the need to stay calm and clear through stressful, anxious situations, so when you pull this card in a reading, or are seeking more calm and balance in your life for whatever reason, blue calcite can be one of the best crystals to help you rise above the mental storm into the clear skies of peace, serenity and calm, so you can find comfort within yourself, and move forward with conscious clarity towards your vision.
Spirit Animal
Crane
A crane is a symbol of balance, grace, and patience, able to stand poised on one leg and soar through the sky. They have a wide view of the world from their high perspective, and as a spirit animal, are often a signal for us to slow down, reflect, and trust our inner guidance. The crane reminds us of our own inner wisdom and our ability to express our insights to others clearly, as cranes have a distinct way of communicating using different tones, volumes, and body language, and serve as a symbol of using one’s voice effectively.
Blue calcite’s energy greatly resonates with that of the crane, as it helps you stay calm and peaceful within yourself, and to connect with your higher guidance and express your insights in a way that can be received by others. When life is moving too fast or you’re feeling flustered or anxious, blue calcite helps you be like the crane, standing tall and poised over the waters of your emotions, and able to soar above the obstacles to find a higher vision for your life.
Blue Calcite Varieties
Blue Calcite comes in a couple different varieties that each share similar healing qualities as described above, with a few differences:
Caribbean Blue Calcite
Discovered recently in 2019 in Pakistan, this is a light aqua blue-hued calcite mixed with brown and white aragonite, bringing more groundedness to its energetic expression.
Lemurian Blue Calcite
From the Mendoza region of Argentina, this blue calcite can veer into deeper shades of blue with brown banding for stunning-looking pieces, and is said to channel the ancient wisdom of Lemuria, opening you up to the depths of insight contained within.
Crystal Pairings
Blue Calcite + Moldavite
Pair with moldavite to calm and soften the electric edge of moldavite and help you clearly access and express the intuitive insights and wisdom channeling through you.
Blue Calcite + Peridot
Pair with peridot, which it naturally grows with in some locales, to boost your positivity, growth, and take action on moving forward on all your creative ideas and inspiration.
Blue Calcite + Moss Agate
Pair with moss agate to stay steady, grounded, and present, to better connect and communicate with nature spirits, and cultivate an abundant mindset.
Care + Cleansing for Blue Calcite
One of the best ways to cleanse blue calcite is in cool, running water for a few minutes. Holding it under a running stream or creek would be amazing if you have access to such, or simply placing it under the tap with pure intentions for its cleansing will work well too. You can also use smoke from incense or a smudge stick for a gentle, quick cleanse.
After cleansing, you can recharge it by placing it onto a bed of clear quartz or a quartz cluster overnight, and it’ll be freshly activated and ready to work its magic for you by the next morning.
Blue calcite is extremely soft and can be easily scratched or chipped by other harder stones, so do be careful with it. Its softness also means you don’t want to let it sit immersed in water for too long, as it can slowly start to degrade and dissolve.
We put our hearts and souls to bring this into life for you. We want to ask you to tap on the heart button if you like this, and please share with others! Thank you. Love and blessings from Moon Omens team..
