Sodalite is a member of the feldspathoid group. These minerals are chemically similar to the feldspars but have considerably less silica, forming from alkali-rich silica-poor melts. Sodalite occurs in a blue massive form which is a popular lapidary material. Sodalite also occurs as a minor constituent in the mineral aggregate lapis lazuli.

Sodalite is claimed to have the following healing properties:

Sodalite is said to increase one’s confidence and to enhance creativity, and to have a balancing effect on one’s emotions and mental state. It is claimed to alleviate fear and bring clarity of mind and is a good stone for Psychic Protection.

Sodalite is believed to strengthen the metabolism and lymphatic system. It is also said to enhance self expression and communication, to eliminate confusion, bring peace and to facilitate spiritual growth. This mineral is said -like it’s sister stone Lapis Lazuli- to benefit the higher self. In particular, sodalite is said to help prevent diabetes and is useful in the treatment of digestive system disorders.
