It is one of the gentlest, yet most direct gemstone tools for inner healing. It is useful in piercing the walls we have built around our feelings. Moonstone softly illuminates that which we often do not want to look at in life.
Moonstone is the gemstone of feeling and emotion.
In many ancient cultures, it was believed to actually harness the power of the moon. Many ancient travelers carried talismans made from Moonstone. They consecrated them with the intention of providing a safe and peaceful energy for their travels. Moonstone's energy is enhanced at the time of the full moon. In ancient India, Moonstones were placed over the 3rd eye area of the forehead, during the light of the full moon.
