Moonstone is a stone of new beginnings, strongly connected to the moon and the quality of intuition, often called the visionary's stone. Once named the traveler's stone, moonstone was used for protection against the perils of travel and often serves as a talisman of good fortune, said to keep closer that which is dear to one. Its energy is balancing, introspective, reflective, and lunar. Moonstone is a stone of hoping and wishing, allowing one to absorb that which is needed from the universal energies, not necessarily that which is wanted. Use moonstone for success, inspiration, introspection, and the calming of emotions.
In India moonstone has long been regarded as the perfect gemstone for women. The moving spirit-light inside the stone evokes the essence of the waxing and waning of the moon and reminds us that everything is part of a cycle of change. Moonstone is well-known for easing menstrual cramps, offers excellent help for PMS, conception, pregnancy, childbirth, and breast-feeding. Filled with receptive, passive, feminine energy, moonstone balances male-female energies and enhances the feminine side of one’s nature, aiding men who wish to get in touch with their feminine side.

Moonstone provides spiritual nourishment and sustenance along with loving compassion to further assist one through all changes. This stone is also known to stimulate confidence and composure, as well as arouse tenderness within the self. Moonstone brings happiness to the environment within which it resides. For healing, it aligns the vertebra, aids digestion, assimilates nutrients, and eliminates toxins.
