No matter how many oceans are between you and those you love, friendship may keep you apart in distance but never truly in heart.
Friendship can be some of the most important relationships in our life. It’s the people we choose to hand our heart to. It’s those who share in our laughter, who help carry our burdens, and who are linked to us through deep and beautiful bonds. That’s not to say that friendships are all silk. They can also be a bumpy journey and a difficult road, especially with age and distance and when life just seems to get in the way.
When a friendship is stretched it can be tricky to re-forge that tight-knit bond. Tricky but not impossible. Whether you are looking to stitch a bond back together, to rebuild crumbling foundations, or just for more love, strength, and communication to shine when it comes to certain relationships, these crystals for friendships can shrink any space and bring you back together.

Rose Quartz
All relationships including friendships are a matter of the heart. As one of the most powerful heart healing stones, Rose Quartz helps to remove any issues with love and trust and instead invites your heart to blow right open (in all the best ways). Radiant in shades of pink, Rose Quartz reminds us that love can conquer all. Not just love for others, but love for ourselves, which provides the very foundations for which we can reach out and give our love to others. It’s also a stone that helps us to build compassion. For those who feel impatient with their long-distance friendships or as though they aren’t getting the attention they need, Rose Quartz brings softer understanding and a sense of renewed and sweetened peace.

Lapis Lazuli

Amethyst
If there was ever a stone to remind you to take a deep breath it would be the serene purple crystal of Amethyst.

For centuries, this stone was considered to be an amulet or talisman of friendship. As Amethyst is said to also protect against intoxication it also helps you to nurture healthy and deep friendships rather than getting caught up in quick flash obsessions with people who may not be so good for your soul.

Moss Agate
Grassy and green and connected and said to be a stone that encourages bountiful harvest, Moss Agate also lends its motto of abundance to friendship too. This is an awesome stone for those looking to extend their friendships and to draw in new people.

Chakra
Why choose one stone and one area of your friendship to focus on when you can bring complete healing across every angle? Choosing a chakra stone set or a chakra sphere or anything that brings all seven chakras into alignment is a surefire way to get those friendships back on track. Love and life and our sense of openness, communication and self-worth are all so much stronger when our chakras are cleansed and open. From the root that holds us in stability to the solar plexus and sacral chakras where our well of joy sits, to the heart that craves unconditional love and compassion, the throat that needs to bask in the truth, the third-eye for our intuitive wisdom, and finally the crown for our spiritual connections with those we hold close – all this can bloom into being with chakra sets.

Conclusion
Long-distance friendships can be tough at times and making room to continually reach out and support each other can be vital in keeping the flame flickering. It is also important to take a look at your own expectations when it comes to friendships and distance. With time, friendships change shape and rather than grow with this, we can get attached to the old way and hold our own friendships back. Encouraging new friendships is another way of making sure that your cup is full of self-love and you aren't leaning too hard on co-dependency when it comes to a singular person.
However, don’t get lost in the idea of space and being apart, physical space may exist, but there are other ways to connect too. Spiritual connections, heart connections, and soul connections can cross any ocean and any cosmic space.
