DESCRIPTION

Moonstone from India is a captivating gemstone known for its ethereal beauty and adularescent sheen. Geologically, Moonstone is a type of feldspar mineral called orthoclase, with a unique structure that scatters light and creates the phenomenon known as adularescence. It is formed through a combination of volcanic activity and geological processes involving the crystallization of molten rock. As the lava cools and solidifies, the intergrowth of orthoclase and albite minerals within the rock gives Moonstone its distinctive shimmering appearance.

Historically and culturally, Moonstone holds a significant place in various cultures and traditions. In India, it has been revered for centuries and is considered a sacred stone. Moonstone is closely associated with the Moon and is believed to embody the energy of the divine feminine and lunar cycles. In ancient times, Moonstone was highly valued as a talisman for fertility, love, and protection. It was used in jewelry, amulets, and religious artifacts. In Hindu mythology, Moonstone is associated with the Moon god Chandra and is believed to bring blessings, intuition, and emotional balance.

Care Instructions

To properly care for Moonstone and prevent physical damage, it is important to handle it with care and avoid exposing it to harsh chemicals or extreme temperatures. Moonstone should be stored separately from other gemstones or jewelry to prevent scratching. It is recommended to clean Moonstone using a soft, dry cloth or with lukewarm water and mild soap if necessary. Avoid using ultrasonic cleaners or steam cleaning methods as they may damage the stone or affect its adularescent effect. Moonstone can be energetically cleansed and recharged by placing it under moonlight or using other crystal-clearing methods such as smudging with sage or using sound vibrations.
