Freestanding Lapis Lazuli
132g
I picked this piece for its depth of colour, it is dark with a rich royal blue tone. Lapis is associated with the third eye and throat, stimulating intuition, inner wisdom and self-expression. It’s a stone for setting you on your life path, giving clarity if you feel aimless or depressed.
Lapis is said to be a hotline to ancient civilisations, especially Egypt, and may be used to enter past lives. It was historically used for jewellery and ornamentation, is believed to enhance vitality and psychic ability, and was the sacred stone of the goddess Isis.
The gold and white banding in lapis comes from its natural inclusions of pyrite and calcite.
Physically, lapis is believed to balance the pituitary gland (third eye) and stimulate immune function. It is used to treat a number of conditions including pain and migraine, inflammation particularly related to the eyes, ears, nose and throat and may help clear blocked sinuses. It is also said to cleanse the blood and is often recommended for insomnia.
The photos in this listing are all the same crystal, taken in different light. Its colour is deep and quite dark.
