Application...
As with most gemstones, Blue Calcite is best used when held or worn as a pendant at the throat. Its soothing energies are especially beneficial when laid in that area. Many have found this one to be very beneficial to hold during meditation.
Crystal System...
Blue Calcite has a trigonal cystal system and is in the mineral class of carbonate. It is formed from solutions containing calcium through sedimentation. Its blue coloring comes from minute quantities of Barite impurities that have seeped into the mix while the crystals have formed.
While Calcite itself can be a very common find, especially in the US, generally the wonderful blue shades are found in Mexico and South America.

Blue Calcite aids the process of a peaceful change for the beginning of spiritual growth. It brings a quiet knowing of what is needed to proceed.
