Caribbean Calcite is a striking CaCO₃ combination stone, composed of layers of calcite and aragonite within a single piece. The stone’s blue, white, and brown layers create a vibrant, layered appearance reminiscent of turquoise seas and sandy beaches, with an undulating surface and occasionally porous texture.

Each specimen is unique: some are almost entirely turquoise, while in others the pale calcite layers are more pronounced. The name “Caribbean Calcite” is inspired by the stone’s blue colour and layered structure, reminiscent of the Caribbean Sea, rather than its geographic origin.

Semiphoras Selection

Semiphoras offers particularly beautiful specimens, in which the blue of the aragonite is dominant and brown veining is less pronounced than in many stones on the market. This makes the stones visually exceptional, with deep marine turquoise hues and delicate pale calcite streaks subtly visible across the undulating surface.

Symbolic Meaning

The union of blue aragonite and calcite combines serenity with clarity. Blue aragonite encourages gentle emotional expression, nurtures the inner child, and guides one closer to their soul’s purpose. Calcite acts as an energy purifier and enhancer, clearing mental blocks and releasing stuck emotions. Together, these minerals promote both calming and strengthening energies, soothing inner turbulence while fostering courage to express one’s truth compassionately and clearly.

Uses

• As a meditation aid to calm the mind.
• As a decorative object on a bedside table or desk to soften the atmosphere.
• In energy work for opening the heart and throat chakras.

Care Instructions

Aragonite and calcite are soft and porous minerals and should not be immersed in water. Water, especially saltwater, and acids can damage their surface and structure.

Safe Cleansing Methods:

• Smoke: Use incense to cleanse the stone.
• Sound: Employ singing bowls, bells, or chimes to purify through vibration.
• Natural Light: Moonlight exposure is gentle and safe for recharging.
• Grounding: Place the stone near a tree root or among natural stones to restore its energy.
• Crystal Grid: Place near clear quartz or selenite to cleanse energetically.

Following these methods preserves the stone’s beauty and energetic resonance without risking surface damage.

Note: Crystals and minerals are natural products; each specimen is unique. Colours, shapes, and clarity may vary. Natural light best reveals their beauty. Trust that stones selected intuitively will resonate most effectively with your personal purpose.
