Discovered in Japan in the mid-20th century, sugilite is named after the geologist Ken-ichi Sugi who first identified it.

In metaphysical traditions, it has been regarded as a 'new age' stone, symbolizing the dawning of heightened spiritual awareness and unity.

Some believe it carries the energy of universal healing and the promise of collective enlightenment.

Sugilite may be placed on the crown or third-eye chakra during meditation to facilitate spiritual alignment and intuitive insights.

It can also be held during prayer to amplify intentions of love and divine connection or placed on an altar to invoke higher spiritual energies.

Carrying it in a pocket or wearing it as jewelry keeps its protective and uplifting energy close to the body.

Sugilite's energy properties are said to promote emotional balance and feelings of inner peace.

Its soothing vibration is thought to dissolve negative thought patterns and enhance spiritual harmony.

This crystal is frequently used in energy work and spiritual practices to guard against psychic disturbances.
