Sodalite is typically a deep blue mineral that gets its name from its sodium content.
It was first discovered in Greenland in 1806 and it was later used as an ornamental stone in 1891, when large deposits of gem quality material were found in Ontario, Canada.
Apart from blue, Sodalite can be grey, yellow, orange or pink. However, for Gemstone use, Sodalite is typically blue , and often has white veins running through it.
It is said to bring logic, inner peace, and calming energy.
It is also believed to protect its wearer from negative energy and to help those who wear it to see the positive sides of others.
In traditional Hindu belief systems, Sodalite is associated with Vishuddha, or the throat chakra. This chakra relates to creation and self-expression. Physically, Vishuddha is linked to the thyroid gland.
Sodalite is a non-traditional birthstone for those born in December or under the sign of Sagittarius.
In feng shui, Sodalite possesses water energy and is thought to benefit occupational domains.
Sodalite is said to assist athletes by improving endurance and motivation to achieve goals.
Additionally, Sodalite sometimes referred to as a “poet’s stone” because it is thought to be conducive to writers.
