Lapis Lazuli Meaning and Metaphysical Properties
Lapis Lazuli has traditionally been known as a gemstone of power, prosperity, confidence, and truth. Resonating with the Throat Chakra and Third Eye Chakra, Lapis Lazuli encourages us to look beyond our limits and seek a life of achievement, wisdom, and honesty. Lapis Lazuli is used for memory recall, drawing opportunities, and inspiring candor in oneself and others. Because of its associations with wealth, Lapis Lazuli has a reputation as a "diva stone" and is sometimes carried as a reminder not to settle for less, since it promotes confidence and elevation in status. It's not surprising that Lapis Lazuli is used in manifestation, particularly when one is seeking the better things in life, looking for career advancement, or connections with people who move as authentically as they do.

Memento Mori Meaning
A memento mori is very simply a reminder that life is finite. Often featuring imagery connected to death, such as skulls or skeletons, scythes, or wilted flowers, memento mori are keepsakes that are intended to encourage appreciation for life's fleeting hours. Memento mori, meaning "Remember that you must die" is often considered a similar sentiment to carpe diem ("Seize the day") or the more modern YOLO ("You only live once"), in that the emphasis should be on enjoying every minute. The essence of memento mori is to be grateful for the time we're given, to find happiness in every way we can, to cherish those we love, and not allow our impermanence to prevent us from reaching for our dreams.

Bee's Advice 🐝
Our stretch bracelets are made using multiple strands of elastic for durability, but sadly they are not indestructible. Stretching gemstone bracelets excessively, or beyond their capacity, will result in damage to the elastic cord and breakage over time so these are not suggested as a fidget item. Gemstone bracelets should not be submerged in water or worn during bathing/swimming, as this will also degrade the elastic.
