Crystals For Friendship

Friendship is one of the many blessings in life. Friends can bring you up when you are down, be a shoulder to cry on or an ear to listen, and they can also share your interests and make you laugh and enjoy new experiences. However, making friends isn’t easy for everyone. Sometimes we are just too shy, timid, or don’t carry a lot of self-confidence. Other times, we may have friendships that are starting to become trouble for one reason or another. Or perhaps you would like help reconnecting with an old friend. For any of these aforementioned situations, a crystal can aid you along in your relationships.

When looking to build new friendships or strengthen existing ones, orange crystals can help. Orange is the color of joy and friendship. It is also a happy, outgoing, and sharing color. It brings things and people together. It integrates the parts of our communal lives. It is the home stone, the “village stone, and the community stone.

Use Light Orange Crystals

Orange Colored Crystals Bring You Joy, Friendship, Pleasure, and Family Togetherness

If you are trying to improve on the friendships in your life we recommend a light orange crystal. In lighter shades, orange is the color ray of friendship. Use crystals of muted orange to find new friends, keep in touch with lifetime friends, and find ways to keep friendships alive. Light orange is the color ray of companionship, loyalty, charm, encouragement, praise, sharing, and affection.

We recommend trying Sonoran Desert Agate. Some of the uses of the orange Sonoran agates include focusing our energy to overcome distrust, timidity, or shyness. These antisocial behaviors make friendships suffer. Use an orange agate when you want to focus your energy on developing outgoing, caring, and friendly behaviors.

Another crystal that can even be used in combination with the Sonoran Desert Agate is Carnelian. The wearing of Carnelian is recommended by the Lapidario of Alfonso X published in 1881 for those who have a weak voice or are timid in speech. A famous imam, Jafar, taught that this stone would bring satisfaction to the desires of any who wore it. Modern writers find that Carnelian has the power to build confidence and increase our zest for life. It builds courage and strength of purpose.
