Navigate Through Life And Open Your Third-Eye-olite

Imagine a large group of hot-ass Vikings walking through a vast meadow. Long braids swaying in the breeze, men and women alike. A little dirty but their sculpted bodies are too distracting for you to give a crap.

Now imagine those Vikings without a way to navigate safely towards the next village they were going to pillage. How will they ever make it? And what the hell does smoking hot, Vikings on their way to a raid have to do with Iolite?

While there’s no guarantee that these Vikings were actually babes — that was just for fun — I can tell you something they were. Some lucky bastards.

Iolite opens your mind. Unknowing to them, just possessing this crystal must have awakened some intuitions. At some point in ancient times, Vikings figured out that they could use Iolite as a polarizing lens. This helped them determine the position of the sun so that they could easily find their direction. 

Iolite can do the same for you — sans lens. Helping you navigate your way through life. Find the direction you truly need to be heading in with this vision stone.

What Is Iolite

Iolite is not the only name for this blue beauty. Its official name is actually Cordierite. It is also known as dichroic because it can have a translucent look. And due to its color, it gained another name, Iolite, the name most of us know it as. Derived from the Greek meaning for violet, Iolite is a crystal of magnificent shade and color. And that earned it another name. Is your head spinning? I promise this is the last one.

“Water sapphire” was given to it because it can appear transparent. Though it is not a sapphire at all, just resembles one due to its blue color. Some of these gems give off the illusion you are high in the sky looking down into a crystal blue ocean. Foaming waves included. Thus water sapphire emerged. It’s no wonder it conveys the stillness and quiet strength of water energy. And you probably already guessed it but yes, you can cleanse this stone safely with water.  

Just as it has many names it also has many shades. We’re talking a shit ton of blue tones. Like all of them. It can look light blue, dark blue, indigo, violet, and any hue in between. It can even look grey. Being a trichroic gemstone it can appear in different colors from different angles. This little witch plays tricks on our eyes in fabulous ways.

The fun thing about this crystal is because it comes in so many different looks, shapes, and shades you can find a spot for it in any place. Unlike that hideous gift your mother-in-law gave you, Iolite looks good everywhere.

Place a piece by your bed to activate your thoughts while you sleep. Keep a stone near your workspace to give you the necessary intuition when working with a new client. A little water sapphire in your reading nook, while you study and get those grades up, could do you some good. Consider this the philosopher’s stone of the real world — Hermione would be proud.
