Iolite examines the inner path of the deep self. It assists in letting go of the belief that one needs to control inner experiences, and dissolves fear of the unknown or suppressed parts of the psyche. It increases the capacity to move forward, and allows for the understanding that the examination of one’s wounds is the most direct path to healing. It is a stone of inner treasure, helping to uncover the lost parts of oneself, and in receiving the peace one’s spiritual journey brings. [Simmons, 206]
When in the midst of adversity, Iolite helps to provide solutions to seemingly insurmountable problems. It promotes a calm, positive state of mind, instills hope, and assists in decisions on how to proceed. It gives the emotional distance needed for a clearer perspective. [Ahsian, 207]
Iolite balances the male/female aspects of one’s character and brings harmony within the self. By taking responsibility for one’s own life and happiness, it releases discord from relationships and helps overcome codependency within close partnerships. [Melody, 335][Hall, 148]
