Orange calcite heart, 4 cm

Chakra: solar plexus
Star sign: Capricorn

The name “calcite” is derived from the Latin word *calx*, which means ‘lime’. Calcite is, in fact, calcium carbonate and is one of the most common minerals on Earth.

General operation

If you feel exhausted after a busy day at work or a hectic day’s shopping, your solar plexus chakra may be too open. You then unknowingly lose energy to your surroundings, which can be tiring and frustrating. Orange Calcite is an ideal stone in such situations: this warm, sunny stone helps you to recharge your solar plexus chakra and restore your energy.

The bright, orange-yellow light of Orange Calcite has both a warming and protective effect. Place the crystal on your solar plexus (just above your navel) whilst you are lying down or meditating, and you will soon feel yourself becoming more powerful and centred. The stone strengthens your personal energy, enabling you to set your boundaries more effectively and stand more firmly in your own power. You’ll become more aware of what belongs to you and what belongs to others, meaning your energy is less likely to drain away.

On a spiritual level, Orange Calcite helps you let go of old fears and emotional blockages. The stone encourages inner growth, boosts your self-confidence and increases your motivation to achieve your goals. It also promotes joy, optimism and a zest for life. It is a true ‘sunstone’ that reminds you what it feels like to go through life with energy, warmth and positive intentions.

Orange Calcite also helps to restore emotional balance and encourages you to approach situations with a clear and optimistic outlook. Thanks to its invigorating energy, it is the perfect stone for meditation, harmonising your chakras or simply having it nearby when you want to experience an extra boost of vitality and spiritual clarity.
