Black Kyante - XXLG

Kyanite is an attractive mineral with a near sapphire-like blue color in some specimens. It is a polymorph with two other minerals: andalusite and sillimanite. A polymorph is a mineral that shares the same chemistry but a different crystal structure with other minerals. Kyanite has a unique characteristic in that it has a wide variation in hardness, in the same crystal. The hardness is approximately 4.5 when scratched parallel to the long axis of the crystal and approximately 6.5 when scratched perpendicular to or across the long axis.

Kyanite is a stone of connection, of building bridges of Light between disparate aspects of experience. It can bridge energetic blocks in the aura and emotional blocks between people and can help restructure mental energies and habits that keep one from moving to higher levels of learning. Habitual emotional patterns can act as skips in a record – the same inner dialog and emotional content play themselves endlessly. Kyanite creates bridges of energy, helping to quickly create new pathways of energy flow and bringing immediate energy shifts in one’s perception of the world. Slicing through confusion and dispelling blockages, Kyanite is an excellent transmitter and amplifier of high-frequency energies and never needs cleaning.

Kyanite can assists in any kind of communication between disharmonious people. It acts as an energetic bridge, allowing disparate energies to gently move into resonance and find a common frequency. It can help one find a way to bridge different beliefs and ideas. It can assist one in finding a way to incorporate all aspects of self into a harmonious whole. Kyanite allows one to forge one’s own unique path by bringing together one’s various interests, skills, and knowledge. This aids in seeing one’s unique mosaic of gifts and how they can be used for one’s Soul path on Earth.

Kyanite opens the psychic channels and activates the mind centers, accentuating one’s mental capacities and enhancing one’s ability to ‘download’ information from higher sources. Its structure and vibration make it an ideal transmitter of energy from one being to another. It can be used to enhance telepathy between two persons and to transmit energy from healing facilitator to client, especially if both parties are using them.

Kyanite is one of the most prominent allies to be used for Crystal Resonance Therapy and other forms of crystal-based healing. It can clear a person’s energetic field and create a protective shield that will provide a safe space in which to do psychic or healing work. Kyanite’s frequency mandates one to act upon intuitive guidance, building strong bridges between our inner and outer selves. It can help one cut through cloudy thoughts, indecision or hesitancy so that forward movement can be made in one’s life.

Sleeping with Kyanite will greatly promote healing dreams and stimulate the process of lucid dreams. Kyanite can link the physical, astral and causal bodies, catalyzing full consciousness in waking, dreaming, and dreamless sleep. One must work at this, but it is well worth it when the goal is achieved.

Note: Crystalline Kyanite is a high-vibration stone.
