Celestite is translucent mineral in a light sky blue color, hence its name, which is derived from a Latin word meaning "celestial". Interestingly, it has another relationship to the sky - fireworks. It is the main source of the element strontium, used to make red-colored fireworks.
Benefits of Celestite: Celestite is believed to promote emotional healing, mental clarity, inner peace, and stress reduction. It is also associated with the throat and crown chakras and is believed to help balance and align these energy centers, enhancing communication, connection, and higher consciousness. It is often used as a focal point for meditation, prayer, or mindfulness.
About Copper: Please note that copper wire naturally darkens over time (we will include cleaning instructions if you like that bright penny look). Also, when worn directly against skin, copper can react with your sweat to form a green layer of copper carbonate. This chemical reaction is not harmful.
