PHYSICAL: Iolite, or cordierite, is an indigo blue mineral. Once known as water sapphire, it is a unique mineral known for its strong pleochroism (violet/indigo from one direction, and brown/colorless from the other.) Iolite is found in India and other select localities, but is an uncommon mineral. It may contain sparkling hematite platelets, which is sometimes known as "bloodshot" Iolite or Iolite-Sunstone (a bit of a misnomer as it is not true Sunstone). 

METAPHYSICAL/CULTURAL: Iolite is associated with shamanic journeys, intuition and inner work.
