Sodalite Worry Stone

Among the books, decks, and stones on 14th Street is this crystal: Sodalite Worry Stone (shop SKU HO513).

Sodalite is a royal-blue tectosilicate, often with white veins, and is sometimes confused with lapis lazuli but usually lacks golden pyrite. In crystal traditions, sodalite is associated with clear thinking. Those ideas belong to folklore and personal practice, not to any medical claim.

Natural stones vary in color, clarity, and shape, so the piece you receive will have its own character even when the weight, grade, or size is listed.
