Blue calcite is a beautiful soft blue stone, and is a form of calcium carbonate. It is a fairly common component found in limestone. Calcite is sometimes transparent or translucent. It can be found in several different colours including blue, green, orange, white, pink, and others. It is a beautiful stone, which may form in a pattern reminiscent of wispy clouds on a warm summer day. The sphere represents completion, the realization of all possibilities. To carve a sphere one must cut away a mass of rock which can be as much as ten times the finished creation. Thus a sphere symbolizes all that we need to release in order to reach our goals and attain perfection. Many use a sphere while meditating as they believe it helps to release worry and may help to take them to a deeper state. A sphere is also the perfect centerpiece for a crystal arrangement or rock altar. In feng shui, the ancient art of creating optimal energy flow in an environment, a sphere is ideal to place in the center of a room for its balancing abilities.
