Moonstone
is mostly milky white, sometimes with clear areas, and some pieces exhibit a bluey chatoyancy or luminous reflection.
Metaphysical
properties:
The
delicate and motherly energy of moonstone promotes the use of intuition and gut feelings, rather than relying constantly on
intellectual reasoning. As such, it acts as a form of energetic reminder of how you have all the tools to guide yourself,
if only you give them a try and stop worrying too much.
Like
the moon itself, the energy also carries it with a sense of renewal and the notion that life is a continuing process with
many births and many deaths along the way. It can be used as a tool to help you accept this process more readily, and maybe
even to welcome it, because every death and resulting birth brings you greater knowledge of yourself and the world you live
in.
