Sugilite is a beautiful natural purple stone whose soothing qualities and alluring colors attract many. It is known to be extremely useful in times of trauma and shock, easing the emotions and creating space for identifying them and healing. Sugilite promotes compassion and forgiveness towards others and is a premier love stone. Sugilite can even create an energetic "field of light", a powerful protective barrier against negative energy and disharmony from others (perfect for the empath who absorbs everyone else's energy!). This rare stone has become increasingly hard to get and more expensive as mining has become difficult in its few available locations.
