At first glance, Orange Calcite might look like a tasty orange candy to you or a slice of clementine. But, this simple-looking crystal can really pack a punch.
Orange Calcite is a mighty crystal that can transform your life in many ways.
The physical and metaphysical properties of this crystal are well known, and people use these properties to enhance various aspects of their life.
From allowing you to reach deeper states of meditation to aiding in physical healing, Orange Calcite has tons of benefits.
So, if you’re keen to understand more about what Orange Calcite is good for, and how you can work with this crystal, that’s what I’m going to unpack today.
What Is Orange Calcite?
Calcite is a carbonate mineral (a stable form of calcium carbonate) that is often found in sedimentary rocks.
This crystal is widely available and can be found all over the world. However, it is often found in large quantities in Europe and North America.
Calcite can be found in shades of orange, red, blue, green, yellow and more.
Orange Calcite Properties
Orange Calcite, as with all other types of Calcite, is a soft mineral.
It comes in at around 3 on the Mohs scale, making it very easy to cut and shape – but this also makes it susceptible to damage.
It’s important to take care when storing and cleansing this stone.
What Is Orange Calcite Good For? 10 Powerful Uses
Orange Calcite’s healing properties are pretty varied. Let’s take a look at some of its best uses below:
1) It Makes You Feel Like You Belong In The World
Orange Calcite is said to mainly work on the lower chakras of the human body.
You can use Orange Calcite if there is a blockage in your root chakra.
The primary work of this energy centre is to root you in this physical realm.
In other words, it helps you feel like you belong in this world.
This is important because it provides you with a foundation from which you can start the journey of your life.
It serves as an anchor to always keep you grounded no matter how high you reach in life.
Meditate with Orange Calcite, focusing on the root chakra, and your desire to feel a sense of belonging to allow the energy to flow again.
2) It Enhances Your Creativity
Along with the root chakra, this crystal also influences your sacral chakra. This energy centre impacts your creativity.
So, if you use Orange Calcite, it will ensure that spiritual energy flows undisturbed through your sacral chakra. This will enhance your creativity over time.
New ideas and thoughts will just materialize without much effort. And solving problems will definitely become easier.
For best results, carry this crystal wherever you go. It could be in your pocket, wallet, purse, or even as a piece of jewellery.
3) It Aids In Physical Healing
When chakras get blocked or imbalanced, it can lead to a lot of physical ailments.
When the root chakra gets blocked, for instance, you might suffer from colon issues, prostate issues, inflammation, etc.
When your sacral chakra gets blocked, you might suffer from lower back pain, urinary tract infection, kidney disorders, and so on.
This is where Orange Calcite comes in. It can remove blockages from the lower chakras and help you get rid of physical ailments.
Remember that crystal healing is not a replacement for modern medicine though. Crystals can help you on your journey to wellness, but it’s important to consult with a doctor.
4) It Enhances Your Gifts
Orange Calcite is popular for being an energy multiplier. This means that it enhances the positive energies in a person or a place.
This is perfect for those who want to have the edge over everybody else.
Just keeping this crystal with you will increase the strength of your natural talents.
For example, if you happen to be a good speaker, you will find public speaking even easier.
This can help you in your career, relationships, finances, health, and other areas of life.
5) It Strengthens Your Romantic Relationships
Romantic relationships can be hard at times. There are so many variables at play, and the complexities of human behaviour only make things harder.
But since the other person matters so much to you, it’s upon you to ensure a harmonious relationship with them.
Thankfully, Orange Calcite can help in this regard.
It works on your sacral chakra and removes any impurities. This clears off your emotional fears, insecurities, and suppressed emotions.
Suddenly, opening up to the other person becomes so much easier, and you have the newfound courage to be happy in love.
6) It Aids In Channelling And Astral Travel
As I said above, Orange Calcite mainly works on the lower chakras. However, there is a metaphysical side to this crystal as well.
It is well known to aid in mystical phenomena like channelling, astral travel, having access to higher dimensions of consciousness, having out-of-body experiences, and so on.
Yes, it takes practice to be able to do all these things, but Orange Calcite makes the journey easier and safer.
For those who want to progress rapidly on their spiritual journey, this can be a real asset.
7) It Aids In Meditation
As I just mentioned above, Orange Calcite has a metaphysical side to it. This makes it perfect for your meditation practice.
Contrary to what many believe, meditation is not merely about closing your eyes and sitting in silence.
Advanced practitioners know that meditation is more of a tool to help you connect with your higher self or divine consciousness.
It is a tool to help you understand our reality better. So, having a crystal with you that makes the process easier is a no-brainer.
8) It Helps You Release Past Trauma
Almost every person goes through at least one traumatic experience in their life. This can affect them physically, mentally, emotionally, and even spiritually.
So, it’s important to get rid of past traumas so that we can live a happier life unsullied by the negativities of the past.
Orange Calcite is perfect in this regard. It cleanses your sacral and solar plexus chakras, the two chakras that are most important when it comes to emotions and a sense of self.
After the cleansing is done, you can move past the traumas you’ve carried with you.
9) It Enhances Your Confidence
Confidence plays a crucial role in life. It can make or break your career. It can also influence your relationships.
Plus, as you might already know, exuding confidence can be beneficial in a number of ways.
So, it’s a good idea to take steps to enhance your confidence.
Thankfully, Orange Calcite can do wonders in this regard. Since it works on the solar plexus chakra, it can infuse you with confidence, self-esteem, and a sense of self-worth.
At the same time, it can do away with insecurities.
10) It Cleanses Negative Energy
This may be more of an obvious one since many crystals and stones can cleanse or protect from negative energy, but what’s great about Orange Calcite is that it also amplifies the positive energies at the same time.
This makes it much more appropriate if you want to get rid of negative energies in your home, at work, or even in your energetic body.
Just make sure to cleanse it after you have used it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Orange Calcite mostly resonates with the lower chakras in the energetic body, but, more specifically, with the sacral chakra, which is also orange in colour.
The sacral chakra is a source of creativity, emotional well-being, and sexual expression.
Although Orange Calcite is most powerful for the sacral chakra, much like Red Calcite, it also works incredibly well with the root chakra – which governs our grounding and basic needs. And with the solar plexus – which is another chakra where we hold a lot of emotions.
As Orange Calcite works with the sacral chakra, an area where we hold a lot of emotion (think: nervous stomach), it can help to ease anxiety.
Plus, this is a joyful crystal that can displace negative energies, like anxiety, and replace them with positivity.
Orange Calcite is associated with the element of fire and connects with the moon.
It resonates best with those born under the Cancer zodiac, but it is also a positive crystal for those who are Leos.
Most reputable crystal suppliers will have a selection of Orange Calcite stones for you to choose from.
I personally bought mine from a company in the UK called Meva Crystals, but you can also source them from Amazon or Etsy.
Final Thoughts
Orange Calcite is a wonderful crystal for working with the sacral chakra, the solar plexus and the root chakra.

I started Spirit of Sapphire in August 2017 after finally building up the courage to start reading tarot for people other than my loved ones.
At the same time, I embarked upon expanding my spiritual knowledge and skills and so attended various psychic mediumship courses and circles, and I also began to train as a Reiki practitioner.
