Moonstone
meaning & properties

The stone of the feminine and of cycles.

Milky and pearlescent, moonstone is tied to the feminine, to cycles and to intuition. It’s said to soothe shifting emotions and carry renewal, like the phases of the moon. It’s a tender stone, one that accompanies rather than pushes.

Element: Water
Chakra: Sacral & third eye

Moonstone properties

It follows your inner rhythm — the one of tides and moons, not of clocks.

History & origin

Its floating bluish sheen (“adularescence”) looked, to the Romans, like a frozen moonbeam. In India it is sacred and given to lovers as a stone of tenderness.

Who it's for

For welcoming your emotions, honouring your cycles, or moving through change gently.

Using it day to day

Keep it close in times of transition, hold it on full-moon nights as you set an intention, or slip it under your pillow for gentle dreams. What matters isn't the stone itself, but the attention it invites you to bring to yourself: a crystal is an intention you hold in your hand.

Cleansing & recharging

Cleanse it under running water for a few minutes or with smoke (sage, palo santo), then recharge it overnight under the full moon or on a quartz cluster.
