HISTORY & LORE
Lapis Lazuli gets its name from both Latin and Persian, translating to “blue stone”. While its name may not relay its magical properties, Lapis Lazuli has a long and rich history that has proven its cultural importance.
As one of the most highly-prized crystals in Ancient Egypt, Lapis Lazuli had a wide variety of uses from adorning royal jewelry to acting as a pigment in cosmetics (with many saying that Cleopatra herself favored the rich blues of this stone). It is even said that the sarcophagus of King Tut was inlaid with Lapis—used as a symbol of both royalty and a deep connection to the spirit realm.
In Ancient Persia, some say that this crystal was a popular choice for warding off the evil eye. While in Medieval Europe, Lapis Lazuli was ground into a pigment and selected as a popular color among some of the world’s greatest renaissance painters like Michelangelo and Masaccio.
Today, Lapis Lazuli is used by many modern mystics in a similar manner to the mystics of old—as a deeply protective force and a strong connective energy to the spirit realms. Its cosmic properties are as revered by spiritualists today as they were centuries ago.
