Lapis Lazuli

Lapis Lazuli is an intensely blue stone flecked with golden pyrite inclusions that sparkle like stars in a night sky. It has been one of the most prized gemstones in human history, valued for its celestial appearance and deep connection to wisdom and truth.

Ancient Egyptians ground lapis into powder to create ultramarine pigment and used it to adorn the funeral mask of Tutankhamun. In Mesopotamia, it was considered the stone of the gods. The Renaissance painter Michelangelo used lapis-derived pigment in the Sistine Chapel. In Buddhist tradition, it is one of the seven treasures.

Lapis Lazuli promotes self-expression and communication, enhancing intellectual ability and stimulating self-awareness. It has been prized as a stone of truth, wisdom, and royalty since ancient times. It opens the Third Eye, enhances dream work, and encourages taking charge of life while revealing inner truth.
