One of the crystals
which intrigue me is Moonstone. Its name is
derived from a visual effect, or sheen, caused by light reflecting internally
in the moonstone. It really is beautiful
to look at and my photography below does not do this gorgeous crystal
justice.
Moonstone has been used as jewelry for centuries, including ancient
civilizations. The Romans admired moonstone, as they believed it was born from
solidified rays of the moon. Both the
Romans and Greeks associated Moonstone with their lunar gods and goddesses.
Moonstone
is said to be the ‘stone of new beginnings’ and like the moon cycles, reminds
us that we are part of a cycle. This is
a calming stone and can be very effective in soothing the emotions. Moonstone is believed to enhance femininity, gentleness
and intuition. It is ideal for the
excessively macho man or excessively aggressive female.
Moonstone
is said to help the female reproductive system and be excellent for PMS,
conception, pregnancy, menopause and childbirth.
Please
do not make a gem elixir with Moonstone directly as it contains aluminum.
