Angelite - Atlantis Institute Crystals Encyclopedia

Angelite - This is our research and findings on this magical mineral.

Origin 

Angelite is a sulfate mineral of soft blue Anhydrite. Sulfides have a sulfur atom surrounded by four oxygen atoms that form a square. Aside from Gypsum and Baryte, the main Sulfide types, the rest are increasingly rare, including Anhydrite.

When Gypsum loses water, it turns into Anhydrite, usually found in salt deposits formed in blocks, of course, crystalline. Anhydrite is normally found as a colourless brown crystal. The pale blue version is rarer and is known as Angelite.

All crystals belong to a different group according to the basis of the relationships of their axes. There are 7 systems and 32 classes of symmetry. Angelite crystals belong to the Orthorhombic system.

History

The known history of Angelite is recent, as the name was given by A.G. Werner in 1804 due to the absence of water crystallization compared to its presence in Gypsum.

Angelite was first documented during the globally synchronised meditation event named the Harmonic Conversion in 1987.

Specification

Angelite is only enhanced through cutting, tumbling, and polishing. It is soft blue and white in colour, and the true versions, encapsulating a deeper blue colour, are only believed to be found in Peru.

Varieties 

Angelite is formed from Sulfates, of which there are around 200 types, including Gypsum and Baryte.

A rare variety is anhydrite, the pale blue version of which is known as angelite.

Esoteric Attributes 

By their very nature, Crystals can receive and focus energy in different ways. Their molecular structure enables them to be used to amplify and convert energy. Hence, crystals have been used for centuries to aid healing and transmute energy both in the metaphysical and physical world.

Because each crystal family has different formational backgrounds, each also has different vibrational frequencies that can be harnessed and used for specific purposes. Each, therefore, has specific qualities that can help a person heal on many different levels of their being.

The following is a list of healing attributes associated with Angelite crystals.

Mental: Angelite helps to end brooding and calms thoughts while dissipating obsessions. It is helpful in group communication and aids lucidity in dream interpretation.

Emotional: Angelite aids in overcoming insecurity and helps to withstand psychic strain. It strengthens the ability to overcome confusion and pain caused by cruelty.

Physical: This Crystal timulates kidney function and water balance and reduces oedema.
