Lapis Lazuli Merkaba Star from India
These are beautifully cut and polished Lapis Lazuli Merkaba (or Merkabah) Stars from India. Lapis Lazuli is made from a combination of minerals including Lazurite, Calcite, and Pyrite. It is said to have been in existence since the birth of time, and was used by ancient Hebrews on ceremonial robes. It was also a very popular stone for the ancient Egyptians who knew it as the "stone of heaven" and would use it in amulets, cylinder seals, scarabs and funerary masks.
In ancient Egypt, the literal translation of Merkaba is broken down by syllable to mean Mer-rotating fields of light, Ka-spirit, and Ba-soul. One of the Sacred Geometry forms, The Merkaba is believed to achieve transformation on all levels of existence. In Hebrew, Merkaba literally means "Chariot". The Merkaba literally becomes a vehicle for ascension. Merkabas are tetrahedrons, made by the intersection of two, three-sided pyramids. The Merkaba is the geometric shape of the human energy field (or aura) and it is good for spiritual transformation as well as helping to connect with our Higher Selves. These shapes are believed to form a spiritual shield around the holder and are very useful for healing the chakras and during meditation.
Good for balancing the Throat Chakra, Lapis Lazuli reminds us of the power of the spoken word, fosters full verbal expression, and clears problems caused by "swallowing your tongue." Lapis Lazuli encourages clear expression when sharing information with others, including easier communication of anger.
A Third Eye Chakra opener, Lapis Lazuli connects the physical and celestial kingdoms. Deeply peaceful, Lapis provides wisdom into mystical realms and connection with spiritual guardians. Lapis Lazuli can be a key to spiritual attainment. Lapis Lazuli will enhance dream work and spiritual journeying.
Lapis Lazuli also protects against psychic attack, shielding negative energy and returning any negative vibrations to their source.
Physically, Lapis Lazuli helps with the immune system, thyroid and nervous system. It can alleviate headaches, migraines, fevers and pain.
