Additional Information

Celestite is, without question, an Air mineral. Its calm, detached and intellectual presence allows us to stand back, observe, and find the best solution to a problem without engaging emotionally, or to resolve conflict through nonviolent communication. It is profoundly calming, and promotes a state of inner peace and deep meditation.
