The stone is great to look at, fits perfectly in your hand when meditating, or used for relaxation or anxiety relief.
Since the earliest of times, lapis lazuli has been associated with strength and courage, royalty and wisdom, intellect and truth. From antiquity, lapis lazuli has been worn in the belief that it will ward off evil.
