Kyanite

Be ready to write this down because the spelling is a little tricky.

Black Kyanite.

Black Kyanite.

K-Y-A-N-I-T-E.

That crystal aids you into releasing blockages caused by life's traumas.

And you'll find chunks of celestite for promoting deep inner peace, calm, and a connection to higher or angelic realms.

Blue kyanite, um, is for powerful attunement.

Powerful attunement stone is what it's known for.

Um, but it's also known for opening up your throat and third eye chakras to improve communication, intuition, and inner peace.

[laughs] Blue indigo obsidian, um, is a deeply calming and protective stone known for enhancing communication, mental clarity, and spiritual grounding.

More aquamarine chunks of celestite, more of it.

More blue kyanite, and more blue aventurine beads and blue apatite chunks.

More aquamarine chunks, lapis lazuli, um, with a piece of pyrite, which I thought was cute.

When people describe obe in the carving trade, kyanite and fuchsite are two names that recur.

They offer a starting point for understanding its blue and green associations, provided we remember that a seller's description is not the same thing as a published analysis of that exact piece.

Kyanite often forms blade-like crystals and is commonly blue, though it also occurs in other colors.

It has a particularly revealing physical property.

Its resistance to scratching differs with direction.

For a listener who thinks of hardness as one number assigned to a whole stone, that is a useful surprise.

Even within a single mineral, the direction of a test can matter.

Kyanite also has planes along which it can split.
