An excellent Third-Eye Chakra stone, Blue Kyanite can pull very high vibrations in through this chakra to be processed as messages from other realms.  It can also transfer a high vibration, allowing for an opening of psychic abilities, especially during meditation.  Blue Kyanite can also be used to promote lucid dreaming and astral travel.

In general, Kyanite is a popular metaphysical stone, which will not hold negative energy, and thus never needs to be cleared.  Kyanite aligns all of the chakras, and can be used to open them as well.  Kyanite also aligns all layers of the aura.  This makes Kyanite an excellent choice for any type of balance or energy work.

Kyanite transmits and amplifies high-frequency energies, making it a great stone for attunements and meditation.  Kyanite brings a calming, tranquilizing energy to the body.  Kyanite clears and calms you in preparation for meditation, and assists in receiving intuitive and psychic thoughts, as well as dream recall.  Kyanite restores Qi (or Ki) to the physical body, and balances yin/yang energies.
