The themes of Lepidolite in stone healing are delimitation, inner peace and concentration on the essential.
The Jesuit Nicolaus Poda von Neuhaus (1723 - 1798) discovered the mineral Lepidolite and initially named it Lilalith (Lila stone). This designation was criticized in the technical world as too little scientifically, so that the mineral received 1795 the designation Lepidolite, which is still in use today. This name derives from the Greek words "lepidion" (scaly) and lithos (stone) and means translated "scaly stone" or "scaly stone". Spellings like leipolite, lepitolite, lepitolite or lepidolite are therefore not correct.
Synonyms are lithium mica, lilathite, hydropolylithionite, lithium mica and rhomium mica.
