Mysterious Black and Blue Opals

Of all of the opals, blue and black opals are the most mysterious. This is because each color represents a different aspect of the unconscious mind. Both stones are said to increase awareness outside of every day consciousness.

The reason that you see so many individuals who are interested in the occult wearing black opals is because it the stone symbolizes a portal into the darker, more primal side of the self. The black opal is a symbol of the will becoming manifest in reality, so in that sense it is a power stone. This is also why so many business types wear it as well. The wearing of natural black opal jewelry is also thought to make one more attractive to the opposite sex as well as increase the libido.

Blue opals are much lighter astrally and their purpose is to free the imagination and get in touch with one's higher self. Blue opals have an almost ethereal quality that makes them especially spiritual. Perhaps it is because their blue fire is reminiscent of the sun rising in at dawn or the magic hour of twilight. Blue opals are also credited as being problem-solving stones and increasing one's connection to God who of course, in most cultures, lives in the sky. Wearing blue opal jewelry is highly recommended for healers, psychics and spiritual seekers.

As blue and black opals can be prohibitively expensive you might want to try looking into the price of the next best thing - created opals. These lab-generated stones tend to be much less expensive than buying natural blue or natural black opal jewelery.
