This lovely blue-and-white stone is also known by the more lyrical term "poor man's lapis." At first sight, lapis lazuli and sodalite are similar, but closer inspection reveals that lapis has pyrite specks that set it apart from sodalite. Lapis lazuli, officially a rock, can occasionally include sodalite, which furthers the situation (which is a mineral in itself). Azurite, dumortierite, and lazulite are occasionally mistaken for sodalite. Sodalite is also known as "Princess Blue" in Canada since it was discovered in Ontario in 1891 while two members of the British Royal Family were visiting. However, the stone was well-known across the Americas before it was formally accepted into Western mineralogy: approximately 2, 600 BC, the Caral peoples in what is now Peru and the inhabitants of Tiwanaku in present-day Bolivia traded for sodalite. Don't let the unimaginative name fool you; sodalite is a gorgeous gemstone with some interesting--even humorous--history and inspiring design possibilities. Sodalite Metaphysical Properties Some people believe that sodalite protects heroes and heroines, especially those who speak truth to power. It is said to have the power to bring logic and intuition together, as well as the desire for truth and the growth of idealism. Because sodalite is supposed to encourage rational cognition, objectivity, and observation, practitioners have employed it to organise the mind. It is occasionally believed to purge lymph nodes and strengthen the immune system. Because of all these balancing properties, sodalite is frequently used alongside other stones and by numerous people at once. Sodalite is associated with the throat chakra and the Sagittarius sign in western astrology. According to feng shui, it has water vitality.
