History Of Rainbow Moonstone
The stone’s connection to human history dates back over 2,000 years. Some of the earliest references appear in Hindu culture. According to Hindu lore, this stone came to be when moonbeams fell to Earth and solidified.
It later became a symbol of prophecy and good fortune. Indian cultures thought that holding a piece in your mouth during a full moon induced visions of your future.
In Ancient Rome, its meaning represented all things lunar. From romance to fertility, Romans thought that the stone had a significant influence on anything moon-related. They also believed its properties granted protection to travelers.
Metaphysical Properties
Moonstone is often called the visionarys stone. It helps us see things more clearly. Rainbow moonstone is thought to bring balance, harmony and hope while enhancing creativity, compassion, endurance and inner confidence. Rainbow moonstone is believed to help strengthen intuition and psychic perception, especially offering us visions of things that arent immediately obvious. Because it helps us avoid tunnel vision, we are able to see other possibilities. Its like a flash of inspiration that comes when we are open and quiet. When we wear rainbow moonstone, life-changing inspirations can happen more and more often.
Geological Properties
Moonstone is a feldspar with a pearly and opalescent schiller. Moonstone is composed of the feldspar species, orthoclase and albite. After the two species are intermingled the newly formed mineral cools and the two species separate into layers. When light falls between these thin, flat layers, it scatters in many directions, producing the phenomenon called adularescence, named after adularia, the historical name once used to refer to moonstone.
Deposits of moonstone occur in Armenia, Australia, the Alps in Austria, Mexico, Madagascar, Myanmar, Norway, Poland, India, Sri Lanka and the United States.
A type of feldspar, it shares many of the same properties as traditional Moonstone.
Despite the similarities, geologists typically group this stone alongside Labradorite. Its similarities more closely align with iridescent minerals, earning it the alternate name of White Labradorite.
Caring for Rainbow Moonstone
Rainbow moonstone is sensitive to chemicals, abrasives, heat, acids and ammonia. Never use a steamer, hot water or ultrasonic cleaners with this gemstone. Use mild soap and room temperature tap water with a soft cloth to retain the luster of the gemstone.

Common questions
- For pendants pictured without a bail (the piece that goes into the drill hole so you can slide a chain through), I will make a wire bail. I will need to be able to reach you to see what color bail you want the wire in.
Please keep dry. Some crystals will dissolve if they get wet. A little sweat against the skin or a little rain (if you are out and about) will be fine, but please do not shower or swim with the pieces.
