Heather: Golden Apatite

By S.F. Skyheart - June 19, 2024

Each of the Celtic trees correlates with a crystal or stone.

The Celtic day of Heather, the day before the summer solstice, is associated with:

Stone: Golden apatite

Apatite comes in a range of color which includes yellow, white, olive green, deep blue, purple, brown, red-brown, and clear. It is most often found as yellow or yellow-green. It can be used to stimulate the intellect, so it is wonderful to keep nearby when you're brainstorming or problem-solving. It promotes self-empowerment and connection with the knowledge that ones greatest source of strength is in spiritual connection and through love. When used in combination with other crystals, it enhances and magnifies the results. It vibrates to the number nine and is especially good for Gemini.

Blue apatite - very uplifting energy, access to knowledge and psychic activation, aids lucid dreaming, deep meditation, astral travel, past life work, and inner wisdom.

Golden apatite - eliminates toxins, draws off stagnant energy from solar plexus, treats lethargy and depression, neutralizes anger.

In connection to Heather, golden apatite makes sense as another source that clears energy and makes way for opportunities, good fortune, and better health. It feels that the common theme with Heather and its correlating symbols is strength and clearing the outgrown patterns to make way for a brighter path ahead.

Please note: Some people start the tree calendar with Birch in January, which follows the solar calendar. However, I learned them in an older tradition, which aligns with the 13-month lunar calendar. It's up to you to discern what feels right for you, of course.
