DECEMBER - LAPIS LAZULI



Birthstones for the month of December include the modern birthstones Turquoise, Tanzanite and blue Topaz, the traditional birthstones Lapis Lazuli and Zircon, the mystical stone Onyx and the talisman Beryl.  Also there are sun stones for Capricorn (Ruby, Agate, Garnet and Onyx) and Sagittarius (Topaz, Amethyst Ruby, Sapphire and Turquoise) as these sun signs fall within the month of December.

Today we are highlighting Lapis Lazuli which is comprised of lazurite (25% to 40%), calcite and pyrite. It has a hardness of 5 to 5.5 on the Mohs scale.

Lapis Lazuli was the favoured stone of the pharaohs.  It has always been associated with royalty and divine beings. Lapis Lazuli is believed to pass on the ancient knowledge and wisdom of Isis, the Egyptian Sky Goddess.

Lapis Lazuli is the stone of truth. It promotes inner truth, self-awareness, harmony and is an excellent choice to assist in releasing stress and in finding peace.

Lapis Lazuli is associated with good judgement and wisdom.  Its energies are said to stimulate promotion and success.

Lapis Lazuli is used for ailments of the throat and ears and is said to help with general pain and inflammation.

This stone is associated with the throat chakra as well as the third eye chakra.

Our highlighted Lapis Lazuli necklace has also been adorned with Abalone, the smaller reflective square bead.
