Charoite is associated with encouraging inner strength, assertiveness, creativity, and self-esteem.
 
Charoite s a rock, similar to lapis lazuli.  It is a soft stone, vulnerable to scratches and dings.  Charoite has an unusual swirling, fibrous appearance,  and along with its intense color, can mislead many to believe that it's synthetic or enhanced artificially.
