HISTORY

The Angelite stone is a relatively new crystal, discovered in Peru in 1987 by a couple named Johann and Annemarie Schmid, who were exploring the foothills of the Andes Mountains. It is also sometimes referred to as Blue Anhydrite. The word Anhydrite comes from the Greek word ‘anhydros’, meaning ‘waterless’ because it has no water molecules in its crystal structure. It is a reference to the stone’s unique physical property, as a dehydrated gypsum. The Angelite crystal only develops in areas where gypsum crystals once had contact with water. Over millions of years, the water evaporates and the gypsum crystals get compressed, resulting in the formation of Angelite. During this metamorphic process, trace elements, such as manganese and iron, infuse the anhydrite with its blue color.

In the contemporary world, Angelite has garnered popularity among crystal enthusiasts and spiritual seekers for its metaphysical properties. Angelite quickly gained popularity as a gemstone due to its unique color and the belief that it had healing properties.  Today, this alluring crystal is embraced for its soothing energies, aiding in emotional healing, communication, and self-awareness. As more individuals seek to explore the mystical realm and connect with higher spiritual planes, Angelite continues to inspire awe and fascination, carrying with it the ancient wisdom of ages past.

The history of Angelite’s use dates back centuries, with its cultural and spiritual significance deeply ingrained in various civilizations. Ancient civilizations, particularly the Egyptians, highly regarded Angelite for its perceived protective qualities. They used it in religious ceremonies to connect with divine realms and seek guidance from angelic beings.

CLEANSING AND CHARGING

To get the most out of working Angelite an important step is to clear the stone of any previous programming or old energy. This allows the properties your Angelite to work towards your spiritual goals with the highest potential. When Angelite is cleared and charged with new, vibrant energy, it will be open and receptive to supporting your intention for communicating with your inner spirit guides.

Burning Sage and Palo Santo does more than fill your space with sweet and earthy aromas. Along with grounding effects, this healing smoke also quickly carries away any old, stagnant energy from both your environment and crystals. To clear and activate your Angelite crystal, fully immerse the stone in smoke for 30 seconds or pass Angelite through the smoke plumes. While smudging, set an intention for the cleansing process to remove any negative vibrations.

You can restore the frequencies of your Angelite gemstones to their brightest form with a Selenite charging plate or a large crystal cluster, such as amethyst or quartz.  These are all wonderful energy clearing tools as well as elegant displays for your crystal collection. Place Angelite on your charging plate or beside the crystal clusters for at least 4 hours or more.

Good vibrations will also cleanse your Angelite. Use a Tibetan singing bowl, tuning fork, or even chimes to produce sound around the crystal, allowing the vibrations to clear its energy.

Charging your Angelite is equally important.  Once your Angelite is cleansed and relieved of any built up of negative energy you can charge it to fully revitalize and energize its enhancing metaphysical properties and connection to your intentions.

Using the powerful rays of either the sun or moon can fully recharge your Angelite.  Place your Angelite in direct sunlight for a few hours or under the full moon’s light overnight allowing it to absorb the moon’s gentle and nurturing energies overnight.  Either outside or on a window ledge will work. Prolonged exposure to the sun can in some cases fade the color and vibrance of your gemstone so never leave it in the sun’s rays for longer than a few hours. Moonlight is by far one of the most gentle ways to recharge your Angelite.

End by holding your Angelite in your hands and visualizing a bright, purifying light surrounding it. Imagine this light enveloping the crystal, removing any impurities and restoring it to its original state of purity and clarity.  Concentrate your focused intention, visualize the crystal being filled with light and positive energy. Set clear and specific preferences for the crystal’s purpose, envisioning it working harmoniously with you.
