Kyanite Symbolism & Meaning

Kyanite is a blue to blue-gray aluminosilicate mineral that forms distinctive bladed crystals. It is prized in jewelry for its rich sapphire-like color and its pearly to vitreous luster. The name comes from the Greek word kyanos, meaning blue.

Kyanite Meaning

Kyanite takes its name from the Greek word for deep blue and has been used in Eastern energy practices to support a sense of inner alignment without holding negative resonance. It is often favored by those who meditate or seek a clear channel for ideas and calm action. Classic companions include aquamarine for peaceful expression and smoky quartz for grounded stability. It is typically worn on the wrist or near the throat as a touchstone during busy days.
