ORANGE CALCITE

Molecular structure: Trigonal

Element: Earth

Chakra: Solar Plexus

Keywords: Uplifting – Mind

Of all the Calcites, Golden/Orange Calcite resonates most deeply with our mental energies. As humans, we often operate ‘from the mind,’ and if those energies aren’t aligned due to limiting beliefs and outdated thought patterns, we might feel unfulfilled in our life journey. The uplifting energies of this stone help boost our creative energy.

Its yellow colour emphasises uplifting and activating energies, and from a Chakra perspective, it resonates with our Solar Plexus. This energy centre is involved in processing energies related to the perception of self, with self-esteem and self-worth being the outcomes of this process. Most of the feelings we have about ourselves stem from our intellectual processing, which is largely shaped by our conditioning and upbringing. Working with Orange/Golden Calcite can facilitate internal shifts and strengthen concepts of self-esteem and self-worth.

The Golden variety of Calcite enhances the clarity of this process, as transparency is present in the stone. As a member of the Defensive Stone group, Orange/Golden calcite boosts our Defensive energy, which forms the shield of energy we establish between ourselves and the external world, creating stronger boundaries.
