Sodalite
Mental Clarity and Intuition in Harmony
Sodalite is a semi-precious stone recognizable by its deep blue color streaked with white veins, sometimes marbled with gray or black. It is mainly found in Canada, Brazil, Namibia, and India. Often mistaken for lapis lazuli, it can be distinguished by the absence of golden pyrite and its more uniform blue tones. Belonging to the feldspathoid group, sodalite gets its name from its high sodium content.
