Energy & Meaning

Moonstone has been valued for centuries across various cultures, particularly in South Asia, the Middle East, and Europe. Its distinctive character arises from the phenomenon of adularescence, a soft internal glow that appears to move across the stone’s surface depending on the angle of light—an identifying feature of high-quality moonstone.

In ancient India, moonstone was documented in gemmological texts and within Hindu culture as a stone associated with the moon and natural rhythms. It was often worn as jewellery symbolising emotional balance and inner awareness. In the Roman Empire, moonstone was believed to be formed from solidified moonlight and was appreciated as a gem reflecting the connection between humanity and celestial cycles.

During the late 19th and early 20th centuries, moonstone gained renewed prominence in European Art Nouveau jewellery, a movement that celebrated organic forms, natural phenomena, and gentle movement. Within this context, moonstone was used to express ideas of transition, rhythm, and refined perception.

In energetic interpretations, moonstone is commonly associated with emotional balance, sensitivity, and alignment with one’s inner rhythms. The blue shimmer seen in fine moonstone is symbolically understood as an expression of inner clarity, transparency, and stability.

For these reasons, moonstone is regarded as a gemstone that supports a connection to nature, deeper perception, and inner balance in a stable and grounded manner.
