Usage:
Lapis lazuli has been in use as a gemstone and cult object for at least 9000 years (Indus Valley). Astrology knows it as a stone that supports the dignity, self-expression and inspiration of the Sagittarius-born.

The gorgeous blue lapis lazuli has always been, and still is, a sought-after gemstone. It was used in jewelry in Mesopotamia several thousand years ago, and it was used to paint the blue eyebrows of the mummy mask of Tut-ench-amun, an Egyptian pharaoh from the 14th century BC. Even today, lapis lazuli is one of the most popular stones from which jewelry is made.
