What is Angelite?

Angelite is made from calcium sulfate and is a form of gypsum. It is formed when celestite has been compressed for millions of years. It’s a soft crystal with a pale blue color and is highly susceptible to soaking up moisture. The meaning of Angelite is to bring soothing and peaceful energy.

Connect with Your Spirit Guides

The Angelite crystal is a lullaby of light and love and leaping to higher consciousness. This is one of those stones that simply oozes spirituality and healing. With shades as soft as angel wings or the pale dawn sky streaked with a thousand promises, the Angelite Stone brings its blue color, its ethereal energy, and its messages from the other side straight to your heart.

This sacred stone that stashed out of sight for many years and was only discovered in 1987 in the mystical Inca lands of Peru. It sometimes goes by the name of Anhydrite from the Greek term for ‘without water’. This is because Angelite is born from parched areas where Gypsum Crystals once sat in the company of water. As the thousands of years tick on, the water dries up, and the crystals get compressed and thus – the gentle blue Angelite is born. Since its discovery in Peru it has also been mined in Britain, Poland, Libya, Germany, Mexico, and Egypt.

Angelite is as soft as silk in energy and physicality. It will transform back to Gypsum when placed in water – a reminder of the feeling of flow that ethereal energy and change that drifts dreamily through this crystal. It is made of Calcium Sulfate and also formed from the cerebral crystal of Celestite. Known for its elevated spirit, its tranquil nature, and its promise of surrender and connection to higher purpose and spirit guides, Angelite is the perfect stone for those on a journey towards deeper shades of awakening.

An in-depth cleanser of negative energy, this highly spiritual crystal is here to tap into those stashed away psychic abilities and to open your mind and heart to make astral travel a possibility along with nurturing gifts of telepathic communication, connections with spirit guides and guardian angels and invites you to connect to divine universal knowledge. When dealing with the chakras, Angelite starts at the throat chakra and then moves up. The Throat Chakra is our place of truth and how we choose to communicate our sense of self with the external world. Our Third Eye Chakra is the place that holds our deep intuitive wisdom and ensures that we connect with the chasms of the self so we can connect with others. The Crown Chakra is how we tune in to a higher truth. It’s our gateway to the angelic realm and the channel we take to explore otherworldly dimensions. Angelite can also lend a hand in the dream world, inviting lucid dreaming and universal messages to seep through.

Zodiac Birthstone

With its water-like flow and color scheme just like an ice-cold and clear summer lake at dawn, Angelite makes the perfect gemstone for those born under the banner of Aquarius. The airy sign of Aquarius is intelligent, assertive, and completely independent, not to mention they have a streak of originality that always seems to serve them well, marking them out as one of a kind. While Aquarians can certainly have their hippy side, they can also come off as a little detached and don’t like to connect too deeply when it comes to feelings. Fortunately, Angelite is here to ensure that they stay connected and not just on a surface level. This stone brings its soothing qualities, peaceful energy, and higher plain thinking to link Aquarians to their larger purpose and to keep them focused on gentle pleasures and spiritual prosperity.

You can add an extra layer of protection by pairing Angelite with Hematite or Obsidian. It also loves to support other crown chakra stones like Amethyst or you could match it with the throat chakra stone of gentle and joyous Blue Lace Agate.

How to Cleanse your Gemstone 

 Soft as silk and pale as dew, you want to keep your Angelite Stone in shimmering health so it is better equipped to do the work it needs. All crystals are known for collecting toxic energies and that’s why its so important to regularly have a de-charge session so they can rid themselves of any lingering vibes. As Angelite is a soft stone you don’t want to turn to any harsh cleaning methods. Cleanse your Angelite by wafting some sage smoke over it in a smudging ritual or by placing it in a bowl of spring water for a short while. If you want to charge up your Angelite then placing it under the full moon for the night or keeping it close with crystal clusters can be an amazing way to fill it back to the brim with its vibrant healing light.
