In the realm of crystal healing, Lapis Lazuli stands as a timeless ally for spiritual seekers. Known as the "Stone of Truth," this deep blue gemstone flecked with golden pyrite has been revered for millennia—once worn by pharaohs and priestesses to connect with divine wisdom. Today, Lapis Lazuli continues to guide modern practitioners through profound energetic shifts, making it an essential tool for conducting a full chakra scan and release practice.
Lapis Lazuli’s vibrations resonate most strongly with the Third Eye and Throat Chakras, making it ideal for enhancing intuition, clear communication, and emotional authenticity. Its dense blue hue carries frequencies of universal truth, while the golden flecks activate inner illumination. When used in chakra scanning—a practice of assessing and balancing energy centers—Lapis reveals blockages while gently encouraging their release through spiritual honesty.
Metaphysical Properties of Lapis Lazuli
- Emotional Healing: Dissolves repressed anger, fear, or self-doubt stored in the energy body.
- Spiritual Activation: Awakens psychic abilities and strengthens connection to spirit guides.
- Chakra Alignment: Harmonizes all seven chakras by attuning them to higher-frequency truth.
How to Perform a Chakra Scan with Lapis Lazuli
This practice combines meditation, breathwork, and crystal energy to identify and release stagnant energy. You’ll need a Lapis Lazuli stone (polished or raw) and 30-45 minutes of quiet time.
Step 1: Grounding & Intention Setting
Begin by holding your Lapis Lazuli in your dominant hand. Close your eyes and breathe deeply, visualizing roots extending from your feet into the Earth. Set an intention such as: “I invite clarity and loving release through the wisdom of Lapis Lazuli.”
Step 2: Scanning the Energy Body
Starting at the Root Chakra, slowly move the Lapis stone upward about 2 inches above your body. Pay attention to sensations—heat, coolness, tingling, or heaviness—which may indicate blockages. Lapis Lazuli often creates a “pulsing” sensation when it detects areas needing attention.
Step 3: Releasing Blocked Energy
When you identify a congested chakra, place the Lapis directly over it and recite an affirmation aligned with that center. For example:
Heart Chakra: “I release all barriers to giving and receiving love freely.”
Pair this with rhythmic belly breathing until you feel the energy shift (often experienced as warmth or lightening).
Enhancing Your Practice with Complementary Crystals
For a multi-layered healing experience, pair Lapis Lazuli with stones that amplify its effects:
1. Ignite Personal Power: Citrine
After clearing blockages, recharge your Solar Plexus Chakra with the sun-kissed energy of Citrine jewelry. This golden stone helps integrate the truth revealed by Lapis into confident action.
2. Stabilize Released Energy: Black Onyx
Ground profound shifts with a Black Onyx bracelet. Its protective vibration prevents old patterns from reattaching to your cleared energy field.
Post-Scan Ritual: Crafting a Truth Mandala
Celebrate your chakra alignment by creating a crystal grid with Lapis Lazuli at the center, surrounded by stones representing each cleared energy center. Use natural bead chips to form your mandala’s outer circle—their varied textures symbolize life’s sacred complexity.
Maintaining Chakra Clarity
Wear Lapis Lazuli jewelry daily to stay attuned to your energy body. Pair it with vibrant ceramic bead bracelets that stimulate creativity in your healing journey. Perform monthly scans to evolve with your growing awareness.
“Lapis Lazuli doesn’t just show you the truth—it teaches you to sing it into every cell of your being.”
Final Thoughts
Working with Lapis Lazuli for chakra scanning creates more than temporary balance; it initiates a soul-deep remembering of your authentic blueprint. As you repeat this practice, you’ll develop an intuitive relationship with your energy body—transforming healing from a ritual into a way of being.
