💙 The Meaning of Lapis Lazuli: The Royal Stone
For thousands of years, **Lapis Lazuli** has been a symbol of royalty, power, and spirit. From the funeral mask of Tutankhamun to the eyeshadow of Cleopatra, this deep celestial blue stone has always been associated with the gods.
It bridges the gap between the physical world and the spiritual realm, stimulating the Third Eye Chakra to expand intuition and the Throat Chakra to allow for honest self-expression.
🔍 Real vs. Fake Lapis Lazuli: The Acetone Test
Lapis is frequently faked using dyed Howlite or Sodalite. Here is how to identify genuine Buddha Bodhis Lapis:
- Gold Flecks (Pyrite): Real Lapis often contains tiny specks of golden Pyrite (Fool’s Gold). If the stone is completely solid blue with no “stars,” it might be synthetic or dyed.
- The Acetone Test: Wipe the stone with a cotton pad dipped in nail polish remover (Acetone). If the cotton turns blue, it is dyed fake. Real Lapis will not transfer color.
- Imperfections: Natural stones may have small white streaks (Calcite). Fakes usually look “too perfect.”
