Meaning

In healing stone science, blue quartz is said to strengthen communication and expressiveness. It is said to help express thoughts clearly and distinctly. It is also said to have a balancing effect on inner restlessness. This stone is also said to stimulate the development of spiritual awareness.

Alleged effect

Blue quartz is said to be particularly supportive for thyroid problems. It is said to have a balancing effect on hormonal imbalances. This stone is also said to have a positive effect on sore throats, hoarseness, and general cold symptoms. During cold season, it is said to strengthen the immune system and reduce inflammation.

Mineralogie & Entstehung

Blue quartz is a variety of quartz (SiO₂), whose blue color is created by finely distributed inclusions of dumortierite, crocidolite, or tourmaline. It crystallizes like all quartz in the trigonal system. Unlike chalcedony, blue quartz is macrocrystalline and exhibits the typical quartz luster. Locations include Brazil, South Africa, Austria, and Spain.

Pflege & Reinigung

With a Mohs hardness of 7, blue quartz is robust and suitable for everyday use. It can be cleaned under running water and charged in the sun or on a rock crystal cluster. It is resistant to most everyday chemicals but should not be exposed to chemicals or extreme heat for prolonged periods.

Verwechslungsgefahren & Qualität

Blue quartz can be confused with sodalite, blue chalcedony, or dumortierite. Sodalite is more opaque and often shows white veins. Chalcedony is finer and has a waxy luster. Dumortierite is darker blue and significantly rarer. Occasionally, dyed quartz is sold as blue quartz – natural blue quartz displays a more delicate, milky blue color.
