Lapis lazuli, or lapis for short, is a deep blue metamorphic rock used as a semi-precious stone with intense color. Prized since Neolithic times as a color pigment and semi-precious stone, Lapis has been used in many ancient civilizations as sculptures, jewelry and even adorns the funeral mask of the famous pharaoh Tutankhamen.
The most important mineral component of lapis lazuli is lazurite a feldspathoid silicate mineral. Most lapis lazuli also contains calcite (white), sodalite (blue), and pyrite (metallic yellow).

Lapis activates the psychic centers at the third eye, facilitating enhanced intuition and access to spiritual guidance. It is a stone of visionary awareness, bringing new information to the mind in images rather than words. It enhances intellectual ability, making one a better learner and teacher. It is a stone of truth and a stimulating influence to the throat chakra.
Lapis is a stone of initiation as well, a catalyst for a mystical journey to higher awareness. Lapis is often particularly attractive to individuals with past-life connections to ancient Egypt, and meditating with the stone can assist them in recovering memories of those past lives, aiding evolution in the current incarnation.
