Lapis lazuli is a unique combination of darkness and light, its deep blue color sparkling with gold pyrite a symbol for a night sky alight with stars.
The ancient Egyptians considered lapis to be a royal stone. It was often pulverized and made into a poultice to be rubbed into the crown of the head. It was believed that as it dried it drew out all spiritual impurities.
Today we may be less likely to think of spiritual impurities in terms of using lapis. Its most common use is to clear the mind of elements of the past which are no longer needed. This procedure should be done with care, for when the past is released, it often carries with it emotional wounds.
It is also a great stone for developing psychism, especially when combined with its cleansing and protective properties.
