Since the earliest of times, lapis lazuli has been associated with strength and courage, royalty and wisdom, intellect and truth.
 
Lapis lazuli has a lot of medical benefits. It boosts immune system, lowers blood pressure, purifies blood and soothes inflammation, if any, in the body. It is also said to alleviate insomnia, depression, throat and thyroid related problems. It benefits the nervous system and respiratory system.
 
Lapis lazuli is astrologically suitable for Taurus, Libra, Sagittarius and Capricorn. Anyone seeking to come out of a depression can wear this gemstone but after analyzing the horoscope from a Vedic or learned pundit.
