- Grounding — brings steadiness during difficult periods.
- Inner clarity — linked to clear thinking and self-awareness.

These are traditional astrological beliefs, not medical claims. We recommend consulting a qualified astrologer before wearing any gemstone.
For those following traditional practice, Lapis Lazuli is typically worn as follows:

- Finger: middle finger of the working hand.
- Day & time: Saturday morning.
- Weight: typically 5–8 carats, guided by horoscope.
Always confirm suitability and weight with an astrologer, as saturn placement varies by individual chart.
