~ Lapis Lazuli ~
Truth ~ Integrity ~ Divine Alignment
I have come to know Lapis Lazuli as The Great
Stone of Truth. Its intense blue Light reveals the truth to us in every aspect
of our lives, especially the truths we don’t want to accept or believe. If you
are seeking the truth, and you are willing to face it when you find it, then
you are ready to work with Lapis.
Often, we don’t want to know the truth,
especially about other people. No one wants to be wrong or made a fool
of. No one wants to be disappointed. No one wants to feel the sting
of betrayal or to know what other people really think of them. Most of
all we just don’t want things to change. We don’t want foundational
beliefs in our life to be called into question. If you find out that you
are wrong, you may feel humiliated, embarrassed or ashamed, and you may be
required to take right action. For example, if you discover betrayal, you may
have to face facts and make changes in your life. You may be so reluctant
to do this that you are willing to live with the lies, and turn away from the
truth. We can be so afraid that the truth will crush us, that we lie to
each other and ourselves. We don’t ask the questions that we should, and
we remain misinformed and disempowered.
Lapis encourages honesty in speech and
deed. Every time we practice dishonesty in any form, we loose power and
become false. We move more and more into ego states and become less and
less of our true selves. We also disempower the people we lie to because
they have now become manipulated by deception. They cannot act in truth
and integrity because they have not been told the truth.
A recent survey, found that the people poled
told a lie more than thirty times per day. Lying is a part of daily
life. Often we know people are lying to us and we say nothing. We
don’t call them on their lies and we hope that they won’t call us on
ours. We think that little white lies are harmless, but all the while we
are losing power and the opportunity to create in alignment with the Divine.
There is an ancient yogic teaching that says, if one can speak only the truth
for 7 full years, all that one says will come to pass – so powerful is the
truth.
Lapis may show you truths beyond your current
model of reality. It may shake your foundations of belief and cause you
to question who you have become. It will definitely show you where you have
become rigid or have lost your way. Lapis helps to cultivate our inner vision
so that hidden truths may be revealed. It also helps us to communicate
truthfully. It promotes honesty in ourselves and from those around
us. It is an excellent stone for clearing and balancing the throat and
third eye chakras.
Ultimately Lapis is a stone of great
empowerment, for when we are ready to open ourselves to the truth and the
lessons it brings, we are free.
Lapis blessings to All,
Karen
Did
you see yourself in that article at all? To some degree or another we all
have challenges with truth. Becoming aware, and choosing to focus more on
living as truthfully as you can will create wonderful changes in your life.
For
myself, I find it nearly impossible to try and tell a lie. This is
because my spirit, my conscience and my body work together to let me know I'm
not being authentic. As I form the thought, my facial muscles
change. It's as if the smile is trying to fall off of my face. This
would likely give away my discomfort anyway.
Lying
to myself, on the other hand… ;) I, as most everyone else, have been
conditioned to think the internal feelings and resulting physical, mental,
emotional and/or spiritual dis-ease are normal. Humans can adapt to
anything, and what once may have seemed terrible suddenly becomes the norm and
we no longer even notice it.
If
we were completely laid bare to ourselves, viewed ourselves (and others) with
compassion and love, and followed our truth, I don't think we'd need healers of
any kind.
Meanwhile....
lol!
It's
a journey for everyone. Luckily there are lots of resources to help you
ferret out the internal lies that are hindering you.
