Apatite
Apatite is the stone of clarity and motivation: the link between having an idea and doing something about it. Its name comes from the Greek apatao, to deceive, given in 1786 because the mineral was repeatedly mistaken for peridot, beryl, topaz and tourmaline. In tradition, blue apatite is reached for around honest speech, deep blue around mental clarity and dream recall, green around connection to the natural world, and golden yellow around drive and follow-through. These associations are tradition and intuition, not medical fact.

Chrysocolla
The stone of calm truth-telling. Chrysocolla is associated in crystal tradition with unhurried, honest communication, with diplomacy under pressure, and with the compassion that keeps honesty kind. Throat chakra first, heart chakra close behind.
How to work with them
Creativity stones are traditionally carried for the beginning of things: the appetite to start badly, the unexpected angle, and the willingness to let a first version exist before you judge it.
