Moonstone – The stone of intuition and inner peace
With its characteristic milky, iridescent sheen, moonstone seems to capture the moon’s light within it. Since ancient times, it has been regarded as a symbol of intuition, emotional balance and a connection with our inner world.
This particular bead is faceted to reflect light even more effectively and bring out its unique iridescence.

Mythology and symbolism
In mythology, moonstone was believed to have been formed from solidified moonbeams. In ancient Rome, it was associated with the goddess of the Moon and was worn as an amulet for protection, fertility and to enhance intuition.
There are also reports that even gladiators wore it before battles, believing that it helped them to remain calm, focused and clear-headed rather than being carried away by anger.
Energy equivalence
In crystal therapy, moonstone is associated with the Moon, the element of water and, symbolically, with the energy of the zodiac signs Cancer and Pisces. Many practitioners use it in practices relating to the healing of inner wounds, feminine energy, security and reconnection with one’s authentic self.
Depending on the school of thought, it is primarily associated with the Third Eye chakra, whilst many also associate it with the Heart chakra, due to its connection with intuition, love, emotional expression and inner harmony.
Important note: The properties attributed to natural stones are derived from traditional beliefs, historical accounts and the experiences of those practising crystal therapy.
