Rainbow Moonstone Standing Point

Moonstone is one of the beloved feldspar minerals that is a potassium aluminum silicate. Its crystal system is prismatic and it has a lamellar structure. It appears in many types and colors but is generally opalescent, clear, white, grey, or peach. Moonstones of all varieties and colors show off a breathtaking blue-white sheen which is a unique characteristic of the stone. Its classic feldspar opalescence is what physically links this stone to the glowing mother in the sky. This is where it gets its name, derived from its similar resemblance to the Moon’s auric lunar glow. Just looking at this stone allows one to tap into the receptive feminine force.

Moonstone is very deeply connected to the Moon, and has important uses during each of the Moon’s cycles. It is said that its energies are more potent during the waxing than waning cycles. During the waxing phases, the Moon expands and becomes brighter up until the full Moon - the time in which its energies radiate most vibrantly. Try using Moonstone for more projective purposes during this time. After the full Moon begins to wane, it retracts and becomes darker up until the new Moon - the time in which its energies are most receptive and deeply felt. It is generally most powerful to use Moonstone for internal and divinitory purposes during this time.

These beautiful polished points measure 2.5" - 3". Each one will be unique. The photo gives an example, and yours will look similar. No two crystals are ever the same.
