'Sacred Alliances' ~ Lapis Lazuli Beaded Necklace Unisex
Lapis Lazuli has always been prized for its beautiful blue colour.
The sheer beauty of lapis lazuli allowed the Ancient Egyptians to see the potential of the existence of outer realms – worlds outside of our worlds, a higher power within the universe. Within its dark blue colouration, Egyptians saw the night skies filled with imperishable stars represented by the sparkling gold pyrite flecks – in essence, an image of the heavens. The Ancient Egyptians used it for jewellery and in burial ritual. It is one of the oldest spiritual stones known to humanity, used by healers, Shamans and royalty for power, wisdom and to stimulate psychic abilities and inner vision. It represents universal truth.
As a stone of heaven, it is only natural that the Egyptians would use lapis lazuli to honour the Egyptian Sky Goddess Isis, who is considered to be omniscient, all-knowing, and all-seeing. The conviction that lapis lazuli holds her soul is though to give the possessor of such a stone a connection with her knowledge, insight, and magical powers.
Rich with Pyrite, which is a feminine energy full of fire and brilliance of intuition and strength.
A gorgeous creation for someone seeking to tap into ancient wisdom and alchemise the base into pure magic. Lapis quickly releases stress, allowing for peace and serenity.

Mineralogy & Crystallography Lapis Lazuli
Unlike most other gem materials, Lapis Lazuli is not a mineral. Instead, it is a rock composed of multiple minerals. It is composed mostly of lazurite, a blue silicate mineral of the sodalite group, typically at levels of 30-40%. In addition to lazurite, specimens of lapis lazuli usually contain calcite and pyrite. Sometimes, it also contains one or more of the following: diopside, amphibole, feldspar, and mica.
