Sodalite jewelry captivates with its deep blue veined with white, a matte and intimate blue unlike any other stone. More discreet than lapis lazuli, warmer than blue agate, the blue of sodalite has a unique character that gains depth with light. Its name comes from the sodium it contains in abundance, and it is primarily found in Brazil, Canada, and Namibia. It is a stone that has long been overshadowed by lapis lazuli but has carved out its own niche thanks to its unique properties in lithotherapy.
In lithotherapy, sodalite is the stone of communication and mental clarity. It works on the throat chakra (5th chakra) and the third eye (6th chakra), helping to find the right words, structure thoughts, and express oneself with confidence. It is recommended for shy people, artists seeking inspiration, students during exam periods, or anyone who feels blocked in their expression. It also calms excessive emotions and encourages taking a step back.
Sodalite naturally pairs well with lapis lazuli (enhanced expression), amethyst (calm and clarity), or rock crystal (amplification). For maintenance, rinsing with clear water and recharging under moonlight once or twice a month is sufficient. With a hardness of 5.5 to 6 on the Mohs scale, it only requires a little care against shocks.
