Lapis Lazuli is one of the most sought after stones in use since man's history began and now it's available in colloidal form. Its deep, celestial blue remains the symbol of royalty and honor, gods and power, spirit and vision.
 
During the Renaissance, the most expensive pigment an artist could use was blue which was made of crushed Lapis-Lazuli. Out of respect for "God's Mother", the people who commissioned representations of Mary wanted to give her the best and most expensive robe. Michelangelo loved using the color
 
It has been used medicinally in treating: fevers, headaches and migraines, alleviates pain, depression and melancholy, anxiety, insomnia, vision and hearing problems, disorders of the throat, lungs, and the immune system.
 
Metaphysically, it awakens the intuition, enhances insight and awareness, brings knowledge and wisdom, increases vibrational level, connects to spirit, helps in meditations and dream work, promotes peace, harmonizes and balances, protective, and blocks psychic attack.
