Mineralogical Properties

Sapphire is a variety of the mineral corundum (Al₂O₃) and includes all colors of this gemstone group except red – the red variety is called ruby. It takes its name from the Greek sappheiros – "blue." The characteristic blue color is caused by titanium and iron inclusions in the crystal lattice; depending on the composition, it ranges from delicate light blue to the coveted cornflower blue to deep dark blue. With a Mohs hardness of 9, sapphire is one of the hardest minerals after diamond. Sapphire crystallizes in the trigonal system and exhibits a characteristic vitreous luster. Important deposits include Sri Lanka (Ceylon), Myanmar, Kashmir, Madagascar, Australia, and Thailand.

Healing & Energetic Properties

In crystal healing, sapphire is considered a stone of inner clarity, calm, and mental strength – Hildegard von Bingen already described its effect on the nerves and as a healing stone for restlessness and obsession. The following effects are attributed to it:

• strengthens your nerves and gives you deep inner peace and serenity
• promotes your inner clarity, concentration, and mental sharpness
• has a calming effect on stress, restlessness, and nervous overload
• supports you in the search for your inner truth and wisdom
• physically: according to crystal healing literature, it is associated with the nervous system; traditionally also used for eye problems, thyroid, and general calming

In chakra teachings, sapphire is assigned to the third eye chakra and the throat chakra – it connects mental clarity with authentic communication and helps you to express your inner truth clearly and calmly.
