Blue crystals often emit relaxing and calming energy, making them wonderful to work with.
They resonate well with the higher chakras and, more specifically, the throat chakra.
Each type of blue crystal will have its own unique properties and healing abilities.
In this article, I’ll explore some of the most popular blue crystals and give you insight on how you can use them.
1. Sapphire
Sapphire is a truly luxurious crystal and is a little more pricey than the vast majority on this list. But, when I think of blue crystals, this is always the first one that comes to mind, so it’s a great place to start.
Sapphire is the main birthstone for those born under the Virgo zodiac. As such, it is a powerful crystal for people with this star sign to work with.
Sapphire is a wise stone and can be used to work with the third eye chakra to strengthen spiritual clarity and clear away confusion.
It’s also a great defender against negativity and, as such, can help with feelings of depression and anxiety.
Sapphire is a very calming stone and can be used to promote a quieter mind and more peaceful rest.
2. Lapis Lazuli
Lapis Lazuli is a wonderful crystal, and one that everyone should have in their collection. Did you know that it was favoured by the Pharaohs?
Lapis is a gorgeous healer that can be used to ward off psychic attacks.
By resonating with the throat chakra, Lapis Lazuli can help you speak your truth confidently and clearly.
This peaceful stone can also be used to boost confidence, increase self-awareness, and soothe inflammation.
Lapis is often confused with sodalite – which I will look at next.
3. Sodalite
Often confused with Lapis Lazuli, Sodalite is perfect to work with for intellectual purposes.
It also works on the mental level by helping to calm thoughts and balance the mind.
As with Lapis, you can also use Sodalite to boost confidence and self-esteem.
4. Blue Topaz
Blue Topaz is a powerful crystal for working with the throat chakra. If you need to speak your mind, or if you need the confidence to speak in public, wear a Blue Topaz pendant to sit against your throat chakra.
This lovely crystal is sometimes known as the writer’s stone because of its ability to help you concentrate on the task at hand.
5. Aquamarine
Aquamarine is a popular birthstone for those born in the month of March. If you are born around th9is time of year, you may find you are drawn to this crystal.
Aquamarine is a very calming stone and can be very beneficial for empaths and those who are particularly sensitive.
It can give confidence to you in a situation where there is conflict and can help with tolerance and compromise.
6. Blue Kyanite
Kyanite can be a very helpful tool for psychics as it connects with the third eye chakra.
This is a very calming, zen-like crystal which makes it excellent for meditation.
It also resonates with the throat chakra and can promote clear communication.
7. Larimar
Larimar is a very helpful crystal for those who are suffering from stress or mental turmoil as it can promote inner calm.
This lovely crystal promotes inner balance and removes any obstacles you have placed in your own way.
8. Blue Calcite
Blue Calcite is wonderful for psychic protection and can help ward off energy campires and psychic attacks.
This crystal can also help you release unwanted cords and connections while helping you to process particularly difficult feelings or past traumas.
9. Azurite
Azurite is a stunning crystal. I have large chunks of it around my house and it’s truly mesmerizing.
This stone can help you deal with trauma, not only from this life, but from past lives too.
Azurite is an uplifting stone that can help you process sadness and grief and can provide the light at the end of the tunnel for you.
10. Blue Apatite
Blue Apatite works well with the third eye chakra and can help you to connect with the spiritual realm.
This crystal is always perfect for manifestation. It is also a wonderful stone for focus and willpower.
11. Blue Lace Agate
Blue Lace Agate is super gentle and can be helpful for sleep problems and for dealing with anxiety.
If you’re in need of tranquillity and peace, try meditating with Blue Lace Agate.
Blue Lace Agate is excellent at calming anger and dispelling negative emotions.
12. Celestite
Celestite is one of my favourite blue crystals. It exudes serene and angelic energy.
As the name might suggest, Celestite connects us with powerful, celestial energies. It can imbue a zen-like feeling and promotes inner balance and calm.
If you need support on your spiritual journey, meditate with Celestite for guidance from the higher realms.
13. Chalcedony
Chalcedony comes in different colours, but in its blue shade, it can be helpful for calming emotions and dispelling negativity.
It can also turn anger and sadness into joy.
Working with Chalcedony might make you feel more generous – that could be with your time as well as with material items.
14. Labradorite
Labradorite is an essential for every crystal collection in my opinion. And while this isn’t strictly a blue crystal, it’s full of beautiful blue hues and well worth including in this list.
Labradorite is a wonderful protective crystal – making it perfectly suited for grounding and for dispelling negative energy.
It can help to relieve stress and anxiety and can also be used to connect with the spirit realm. It’s a good crystal for mediums and other spirit workers.
15. Turquoise
Turquoise is a highly sacred crystal for many tribes of both ancient and modern times. It’s heralded for its powerful healing abilities and can often be found in jewellery or amulets.
This stone can be used to realign your chakras and remove feelings of anxiety and depression. And it can help with exhaustion too.
It is a great protector of unwanted energy and a highly spiritual stone.
16. Angelite
Angelite is a beautifully gentle crystal – so much so that it can even be used by children.
For anyone having trouble with sleeping or with nightmares, place Angelite under the pillow or next to the bed to benefit from its calming, soothing energies.
If you want to connect with the angels, it can be helpful to meditate with Angelite.
As with many of the other crystals on this list, Angelite can promote better communication. But this can also apply to communicating with the spirit realm.
Final Thoughts
