Lapis Lazuli is a Crystal that has been used for centuries as part of various spiritual and healing rituals, but what makes this Gemstone so special? What makes it the go-to Stone when it comes to Crystal Healing?
This deep blue Stone contains flecks of gold and silver and is believed to open up the Throat Chakra. This Chakra is all about communication and expression, so if you ever feel ‘stuck’ or unable to express your true thoughts and emotions, Lapis Lazuli can help open up that connection between the throat and mind. It encourages us to speak our truth and be honest with ourselves.
Lapis Lazuli has the inclusion of Iron Pyrites, which we know better as Pyrite or Fool’s Gold! This brassy, golden metallic sparkly material shows as excellent, unique specks in this gorgeous Gem. Which perfectly permeates the rich blue background, giving this remarkable speckled effect.
Lapis Lazuli can be used in Meditation or worn as Jewellery, both of which are said to bring about emotional balance, joy and harmony in relationships. In addition, it helps strengthen the immune system by promoting physical health and vitality. All these benefits make Lapis Lazuli an ideal Crystal for those seeking a deeper understanding of themselves or looking to heal emotionally or spiritually.
Known as The Stone of Wisdom, Lapis Lazuli will bring out your confidence and allow you to express yourself once more. Wearing this Gem close to the skin will let you soak up its high vibrations and let its power flow directly into your soul.
When we talk about vibrations and Crystal, it can be hard to understand what we mean! Everything in the world moves with a magnetic pulse and vibration. Scientists have taught us that every atom in the universe is constantly in motion, and metaphysicians have taught us that every object is surrounded by its little vibrational energy sphere. We know this as an aura.
Crystals are unique in nature. Their atoms follow the most systematic pattern possible, creating a crystal lattice. Due to this incredible atomic structure, Gemstones are powerful holders and transmitters of energy and vibration.
As humans, we have a messy and chaotic atomical structure; our auras and atoms are harmonised by interacting with Crystals. Allow yourself to gaze into its imagery of a night sky with glistening stars weaving throughout the fantastic blue. You will instantly feel comforted, and your negative energy will fade away.
Lapis Lazuli, whilst beautiful, is a Gemstone that helps us see into ourselves by way of soothing the way to acknowledgement and empowers us to take responsibility for our choices.
It’s also a little bit of an irony unto itself as it’s one of those Gemstones we all wish to possess. Yet, one of its qualities is its ability to help us free ourselves from the material world – we all know what Alanis Morissette would say about that!
The great thing to know about Lapis Lazuli is its integrity as a healing Crystal as it helps us get real, stay honest and above all, be authentic – just like our 100% natural Lapis!
Finally, Lapis Lazuli is a talisman of wisdom – using it during Meditation will bring up any lessons or truths that are necessary for personal growth.
