Lapiz Lazuli has a long history of use as a protective stone, most notably with the Egyptians, to whom it symbolized power and protection.
Lapiz Lazuli – Numerology and Homeopathic Gemstone Remedies
By Giovanna Franklin
The karma of this day is 5, which is about communication, like the number 4, but in this case, it is about communication that is destined to last for a long time. In other words, fame.
If you are starting something that you want to be remembered, do it in a day with karma 5.
Mercury is the planet linked to the number 5: Hermes flies fast to bring news and spread the word.
Lapiz Lazuli has a long history of use as a protective stone. This deep blue stone is actually the formation of many different materials, including sodalite, grains of pyrite, calcite, and white dolomite. Its name is derived from the Latin word for stone, lapis, and the Arabic word azul which means blue.
The history behind this stone can be traced back to many different civilizations, most notably the Egyptians, who used the stone to symbolize a sense of power and protection. They used it to decorate temples and royal vestments, in jewelry for courage and protection, and it was often thought that this stone helped the dead go safely on into the journey of the afterlife.
Many other cultures around the world considered this stone as the link between heaven and earth.
The blue of the stone is linked to the throat chakra, which is the chakra for communication and voicing your true feelings. Lapis Lazuli particularly affects the throat area, regenerates the thyroid gland, is indicated for an underactive thyroid, and helps with irritations of the vocal cords, coughs, and sore throat. It improves one’s voice. Lapis stabilizes the blood pressure and reduces high blood pressure. In women, it balances hormones and lengthens the menstrual cycle.
Main theme: motherhood
Everything around the theme of mother: grief about losing a mother, troubled relationship with one’s mother, motherly instinct, but also connecting to our inner child and reconciling ourselves with our past and our childhood.
For this reason, Lapis Lazuli reminds me of Natrum Muriaticum: Nat Mur also has an affinity with mother-child relationships. Particularly the feeling of “abandonment” or “neglect” that teaches the child to be independent from very early on. Nat Mur is often given to children with speech delay when the sensation is that the child does not feel the need to communicate. Lapis has both themes of feeling disconnected from the mother and difficulty communicating deep feelings.
