Everyone Needs Blue Apatite!

I decided to talk about blue apatite today because………..well I think we could all use a little positivity and something that is uplifting right about now! The Greeks were the first to recognize the chameleon-like qualities of Apatite and its ability to resemble other crystals, The Apatite crystal stone meaning comes from the Greek word “to deceive,” owing its name to its unique properties. A combination of different levels of fluorine, chlorine, and hydroxide, the Apatite crystal ranges in color from deep blue-green to green to yellow and sometimes pink or violet. Made from a common group of minerals containing a calcium phosphate base, Apatite reminds us that truly knowing oneself is the key to opening up the doors of the universe, a place where anything is possible. While Apatite is found in quite a few locations including Myanmar (Burma), Brazil, India, Kenya, Madagascar, Norway, Sri Lanka, South Africa, Mexico, Canada and the United States, the main places that the blue stone comes from are Madagascar, Russia, Brazil and India.


It has a strong action within the Third Eye and Throat chakras and is known to aid the development of your psychic gifts, including mental telepathy, clairvoyance, or psychic visions. This stone would be of great assistance to anyone with a job requiring strong and clear communication. The Throat chakra is it aids in the release of energy from other chakras in the body by being the modality in which truth is expressed. When blocked, it will affect not only the throat area, but any other area where energy is being held back and not spoken. When in balance, there is no energy stagnation so the mind, body, and spirit are all in harmony resulting in a feeling of serenity, and flow. Blue Apatite works extremely well with the throat chakra in helping you in speaking your truths. Aiding in honesty, and openness, this stone is great for writers, speakers, and poets.

Blue Apatite encourages the growth of your spirituality and health. It will bring forth a confident energy to allow a flow of self-expression. Known also to work the Third Eye chakra, blue apatite has been used as a powerful healing stone to assist in clearing energetic blocks in the chakras, meridians, and the aura. It works to release emotional trauma, and hurtful memories from your past. It breaks through energies that contribute to mental exhaustion by raising your vibration to feel more positive. On a spiritual level, blue apatite works to balance energies of our own Divine masculine and feminine qualities, of what is often referred to as your Yin and Yang energies.


This stone will also assist in healing the heart and helping clear your past lives. It offers a high level of spiritual guidance and can be used with record keepers to recover past life information as well as that of ancient civilizations. Blue Apatite crystals are particularly powerful to aid you to be able to experience 'vertical vision' (where you may see multiple levels of consciousness occurring). Apatite can help you to develop your psychic powers, as it will stimulate the birth of psychic gifts. Working with this stone on the Third eye will also stimulate psychic development as it is a stone of inspiration and is believed to increase "a-ha" moments! (Don’t we all want more of those?!) It will assist you with lucid dreaming and astral travel, and it encourages you to act in a more humanitarian way. It helps you accept yourself as you really are, and to gain greater self-confidence.


If you’re in the mood, place a stone over the third-eye chakra and allow yourself to tap into an expanded spiritual dimension. It may open you to deep inner wisdom, and you may gain access to the Akashic Records. It has an ability to encourage intense spiritual attunement. Often there is an element of relating to past life issues that you may have deep feelings about, and the vibration of this stone helps works through the heart to help you in dealing with any grief that you may experience.

Apatite is also well known as a manifestation crystal. Create a daily meditation ritual with a specific intention or goal in mind. Apatite is particularly useful because it can magnify and strengthen your intention, giving you the clarity of mind necessary for deepening your focus and spiritual awareness. This is also an excellent time to take stock of your current mind-body-spirit status.


In addition, using this in meditation may allow you to fully awaken to the existence of the Divine, allowing you to harmonize your mind, body and spirit, aiding natural healing to occur. It is also an excellent stone to aid the immune system, and it may also help the eyes to see more clearly - in both a physical and metaphysical way. Using it regularly will bring forth a deeper connection to your Higher Selves, guardian angels, and other celestial light beings, including Mother Earth.

Hold it when you do a psychic meditation, or you could put one under your pillow, and you may find that you have dreams that aid you to solve difficult problems in a creative way. It has a stimulating effect that may also be an aid to you if you want to enhance your creativity. Apatite is also believed to increase motivation and can be an aid for hyper and autistic children.

Blue apatite is believed to form and repair cells, but also glands, cartilage, and anything to do with bodily tissue; joint repair, alleviate arthritis, and motor function. It is said to be a great aid for weight-loss by not only curbing your appetite but also activating a fast metabolism! Other uses for physical healing include headache relief. The Apatite crystal contains the same elements that make up our tooth enamel, making it an excellent healing aide for dental issues and mending broken bones. Physically, Apatite aids in the absorption of calcium, helping cartilage, bones and teeth; healing bones and encouraging the formation of new cells.


Since it is a crystal with a high vibration, you may find that using blue apatite may cause dizziness, especially if you are not used to working with crystal healing energy. it is best to pair this crystal with another that can provide grounding energies, such as Hematite, Onyx, Obsidian, Smoky Quartz, or Black Tourmaline. Black Onyx an excellent stone for grounding and it serves dual purpose as it will also help prevent psychic attack. You may wish to use Blue Apatite with Rose Quartz to enhance the vibration of attracting and giving unconditional love; or use it with Rhodonite to increase the possibility of attaining new talents. You may wish to combine it with Clear Quartz, to stimulate your level of wisdom and increase insightful guidance; or combine with Aquamarine to help you find the courage to make changes in your life.

During this pandemic time, if you or a friend are looking to move forward on your life path and need some calming, positive, supporting energies, I recommend getting some Blue Apatite as these are the energies this stone carries! This Blue Apatite pendant comes with a sterling silver bail and can be worn either side out ($44).
