Lapis lazuli is a stone that vibrates especially with the third eye chakra: it develops intuition by amplifying and expanding psychic and clairvoyant abilities.

It activates the pineal gland and opens communication with one's spiritual world, promoting the development of imagination.

Bead size: 0.4 cm - 0.6 cm

Bracelet size: 19 cm

Material: Lapis lazuli, semi-precious stone

The meaning of the word “lapis lazuli” dates back to the Persian word “lazur”, which means “blue stone”. Generally, lapis lazuli comes from Afghanistan, but it is also found in Italy, Egypt, Chile, Russia, and the United States.

These are very shiny and beautiful stones to look at, but they can take on different colors depending on the traces present inside them. Normally, it is found in the blue variety and contains inclusions of white calcite and golden pyrite.

History

Lapis lazuli has been known for thousands of years: it dates back to the time of the pharaohs. It has always been highly appreciated by the Egyptians both as an amulet and for creating jewelry, and specimens have also been found in the tomb of Pharaoh Tutankhamun.

According to the Bible, one of the stones in the breastplate of the High Priest of Jerusalem was lapis lazuli. Part of the Book of the Dead was written on a slab of this mineral, while classical texts document how ancient peoples recognized great value in these splendid blue crystals. They were indeed considered sacred stones, connected to spirituality, wisdom, enlightenment, and harmony.

Why use lapis lazuli

Lapis lazuli is a stone that vibrates especially with the third eye chakra: it develops intuition by amplifying and expanding psychic and clairvoyant abilities. It activates the pineal gland and opens communication with one's spiritual world, promoting the development of imagination. Like most blue stones, lapis lazuli also stimulates and activates the throat chakra.

Being a highly spiritual stone, it also vibrates with the fifth chakra, improving creativity, creating clarity in communication, and depth of thought. It is considered a crystal connected to truth, as it allows one to speak without betraying one's heart.

Precisely because lapis lazuli helps develop depth of faith and great conviction, it increases self-confidence and the understanding of one's spirituality, leading one toward the right decision. From this comes what is called “enlightenment”, that is, an instantaneous and surprising understanding of one's spiritual path.

Regarding health, lapis lazuli is connected to the well-being of the thyroid, throat, immune system, respiratory system, and nervous system. It seems that wearing the mineral can relieve migraines and help those who feel anxious or depressed.

Usually, lapis lazuli is quite easy to find, precisely because they are very beautiful stones that make splendid jewelry, such as pendants and necklaces if you want to keep them close to the throat chakra, or in the form of earrings if you want to keep them in the third eye area.

Black Onyx Stretch Bracelet

Like all stones of this color, Black Onyx absorbs negative energy to transform it into positive energy.

In Persia, it was used to ward off the evil eye. It is undoubtedly a stone that leads to a state of introspection, forcing us to face our Shadow and our inner demons.

Bead size: variable (0.4 cm - 1 cm)

Physical benefits

As passed down by popular wisdom, black onyx seems to possess certain properties when it comes to the body. It is considered the stone of hearing and, consequently, supports therapies aimed at curing ear ailments. It also strengthens the immune system, helping to combat infections.

Psychological and mental benefits

By wearing black onyx, we open ourselves to getting in tune with other people, allowing us to better understand their desires and aspirations. However, this interaction with others also helps us better understand ourselves and our inner world.

It is therefore perfect for situations where clarity is needed, whether in achieving goals, bringing order to our feelings and thoughts, or finding our own path. All of this is viewed through the lens of our true needs, rather than the behaviors we have adopted to satisfy someone else's wishes.

Spiritual benefits

Black onyx also has several very interesting properties on a spiritual level. First, it protects us from negative influences by shielding us. This is actually a role that belongs somewhat to all black stones, such as tourmaline, which protects against radiation emitted by technological devices.

Black onyx also allows us to focus our attention on what is truly useful, helping us better evaluate which judgments are constructive and which are intended to tear us down.

Thanks to this mineral, we can work much more consciously on the first chakra, which is linked to our survival instinct, the need to take root, and the need to find our place in the world. It also strengthens our connection with Mother Earth.

1 elasticated bracelet in Apatite

Apatite is known as the gem of manifestation because it helps you see things more clearly.

It helps you recognize problems, identify the obstacles you need to overcome, or the issues that are holding you back.

Thanks to this, you can move forward and achieve your goals.

Bead size: 0.4 - 0.8 cm

Bracelet size: 18 cm

Material: Apatite

Country of origin of the stone: Brazil

Apatite (from the Greek apatao, to deceive) is a stone with a hexagonal crystal system and is formed through the primary and secondary lithogenetic process.

The most common form found in nature is blue, but it can also be found in yellow, green, and gray. Transparent apatite is very rare, because it is usually opaque. It has been used to replace, but at other times due to an involuntary confusion, beryl. Its recognition, however, occurred several years ago, we are talking about 1786.

However, in crystal therapy, it has only recently been rediscovered.

Apatite is connected to the third chakra given its crystal structure. It is suitable for all those people who never forget the goal and try to achieve it, intelligently overcoming every difficulty.

Properties of apatite

Apatite is a stone with many properties. If you choose to work with this mineral, you can use it in crystal therapy sessions. Depending on the color, you place it on the corresponding chakra. Blue apatite goes on the fifth chakra, green on the fourth, yellow on the third, and gray on the first chakra.

Benefits for the body

According to some studies carried out by more or less famous crystal therapists, apatite works on the physical plane by stimulating cell regeneration. It works a lot on the bones, teeth, and cartilage. It is also useful in case of joint pain. However, those of you who have been following me for a while know well that I prefer to work on the spiritual and mental plane rather than the physical one when it comes to stones and crystals.

Benefits for the spirit

From a spiritual point of view, apatite promotes openness towards others. If you are people who have difficulty socializing, wear a blue apatite in contact with the throat chakra, it stimulates extroversion. It does so delicately, based on your inclinations that have not yet emerged.

Benefits for the mind

In moments of uncertainty, where the temptation is to remain still and endure events instead of living them, apatite is just what you need. It gives us vitality and is helpful in cases of depression caused by a period of hyperactivity that has exhausted you. It can also be useful for maintaining calm in situations that make you lose your patience.

History

Howlite is a fairly common white stone. It is characterized by gray inclusions that make it look banded; at other times, these inclusions are black or bluish.

Sometimes it can also be found colorless. It is often used as an imitation of the much more expensive turquoise and is therefore dyed blue. Howlite is used because its white color and porous nature make it suitable for imitations. Sometimes it is dyed red as a substitute for coral.

Howlite belongs to the borate class and was first described by Henry How in 1868. Transparent crystals are very rare. It was discovered in Canada, but today the main sources are found in Los Angeles and California. The sources in Marmara and Turkey are also very important.

Properties of howlite

Howlite is a fairly commonly used stone in crystal therapy, although it has not achieved the fame of other crystals. It is particularly appreciated in jewelry for imitating the more precious turquoise and coral. This does not, however, mean that it lacks properties.

Psychological benefits

Psychologically, however, it is used to overcome past wounds and traumas, to process anger, and to renew oneself. It is used for anxiety, shock, and panic. It instills a new sense of self-confidence and helps one find the strength to move forward.

Wear it as a pendant at heart level if you need to open up a little more to your feelings. It is a stone that amplifies vibrations, increases love for oneself and others.

1 elasticated bracelet in Garnet

This stone gives courage, optimism, and hope. Garnet stimulates self-healing abilities, strengthens the immune system, and improves blood circulation and blood quality. It is a truly revitalizing stone.

Bead size: 0.4 cm

Bracelet size: 19 cm

Material: Garnet, semi-precious stone

Garnet is still considered a powerful symbol of transformation today. Although aesthetically “insignificant” in its raw state, once worked it becomes a wonderful stone. This is why it is recommended for those who have to face a difficult moment involving transformation or change.

Benefits for the body

It has a great regenerative energy. Physically, it harmonizes fluids, especially the blood. It stimulates metabolism and strengthens our immune system, making us stronger in fighting and preventing diseases. It is also recommended for those who have difficulty absorbing nutrients at the intestinal level. When applied locally to a bleeding wound, garnet helps it heal.

Benefits for the mind

Garnet gives greater self-confidence and therefore increases self-esteem. It is a beacon in the dark, bringing joy of life and great optimistic willpower to overcome all challenges. It makes one highly persevering, freeing the person from fixed patterns and inhibitions. Precisely for this reason, it is sometimes considered and used as an aphrodisiac. Garnet is useful for men and women who are afraid to express their sexuality, often caused by some negative past experiences. Finally, on a mental level, it is recommended when you want to give birth to new ideas and bring projects to life, because it offers the strength necessary to emerge without fear and leave behind limiting, obsolete ideas.

Benefits for the spirit

As I said at the beginning, garnet is a stone that illuminates, helping to emerge from dark periods and depression. Use it if you are in a situation that seems to have no way out. If we are experiencing such a strong moment of crisis that all our hopes and values have collapsed.

It strengthens the desire to emerge and releases light within the person wearing it. It leads to a great state of harmony not only with oneself but also with everyone close by.

Jade Description

Jade is an ornamental stone and not strictly a mineral, but rather a collection of particular silicate minerals (jadeite and nephrite) distributed in a structure made of very fine granules and interwoven fibers.

The color is rarely uniform: on a white or off-white background, slight shades of pink, lavender, violet, or more often emerald green or light green appear due to the presence of chromium.

Today, other minerals are sold under the name of jade, such as serpentine, which not only has the same appearance, but is also extracted from the same deposits as jadeite and nephrite, although it is more malleable and less resistant.
