Geological and Mineral Characteristics of Sodalite
From a mineralogical perspective, sodalite is rich in sodium and silica. Featuring a Mohs hardness rating between 5.5 and 6, it belongs to medium-hard minerals that provide excellent durability for everyday handling. The characteristic white veining or patches within the deep blue matrix stem from calcite inclusions. Being natural specimens, each polished stone carries a completely unique pattern of natural lines.

It assists in soothing excessive stress, balances emotions, and enhances self-worth and self-acceptance. Governed by the elements of water and air and planetary energies of the Moon and Jupiter, it provides great support for those born under the zodiac signs Virgo and Sagittarius.
