METAPHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF MOONSTONE

Moonstone is a stone for “new beginnings”, inner growth and strength. It soothes emotional instability and stress, and stabilises the emotions, providing calmness. Moonstone enhances intuition, promotes inspiration, success and good fortune in love and business matters.

Moonstone is thought to harvest the moon’s energy, which embodies yin’s passive and relaxing energy. Moonstone occurs in the colours of off white, grey and pale shades of blue, green, yellow and brown. Color and light shift within the Moonstone’s iridescence, making it appear as if the stone is fluid or watery and glowing from within. This ethereal appearance is called adularescence, an optical phenomenon caused by its unique inner composition that refracts and scatters light.

Moonstone is the stone most associated with female fertility, and the associated menses, premenstrual syndrome and menopause. Moonstone helps the digestive and reproductive systems, assimilates nutrients, eliminates toxins and water retention. It eases degenerative conditions of skin, hair, eyes and fleshy organs such as the liver and pancreas. It is excellent for PMS, conception, pregnancy, childbirth and breastfeeding.

The positive and uplifting energies of Moonstone make it an excellent love stone. It can help you attract the right people into your life if you are looking for a new love partnership. It is a traditional ancient token of undying love, will remove anger from relationships, and will help you accept the love of others.

In addition to its emotional healing properties, Moonstone is known to be protective. In Ancient Rome, Moonstone was said to protect travelers, especially those who travel by night.
