Dark blue Afghan Lapis handmade pendant
 Lapis lazuli is one of the stones with the longest tradition of being considered a gem, with a history stretching back to 5000 BC and is a stone traditionally reserved for royalty.  It is an opaque medium to dark blue with Pyrite infusions.

Metaphysical Properties:
 Intuitive sources say that Lapis can assist in the opening of the third eye and the attainment of wisdom. It is associated with the 'royal' virtues of courage, insight, strength, clarity and compassion, and with their attainment.
 

 In meditation, opens brow chakra: higher guidance, intuition, and connection to higher self, overview, and decisions for good of all. Organizes, quiets mind.

Lapis brings truthfulness, openness, inner power, intuition, virility and manifestation. It strengthens the mind and body as well as increasing awareness and spiritual evolution. It can help  contact guardian spirits. Lapis also helps build self-confidence, bring spiritual love and is also known for enhancing love and fidelity within marriage.
