With its ethereal glow and mesmerizing sheen, Moonstone has long been cherished as a symbol of intuition and new beginnings. Its soft, luminous shimmer – known as adularescence – gives it a mystical allure, making it a favorite for both collectors and jewelry lovers alike.
The allure of adularescence
Moonstone’s signature glow is caused by light scattering within its layered structure, producing the mysterious bluish or silvery shimmer that has fascinated jewelry lovers for centuries.
Symbolism and meaning
Moonstone has been treasured for centuries as a stone of intuition, femininity, and emotional balance. Often associated with new beginnings, it is believed to support inner growth, harmony, and trust in life’s natural cycles.
Moonstone in jewelry
Although Moonstone is moderately soft (Mohs hardness ~6–6.5) and best worn with care, it remains a timeless choice for rings, pendants, and earrings. Jewelry designs often protect the stone in secure settings to allow its glow to shine while minimizing wear.
