What is moonstone good for?

In traditional crystal practice, moonstone is most commonly worked with for intuition, clarity, and psychic. It's not medicine, and no stone will fix anything on its own. Think of it as a physical cue for a practice you're already building. The stone holds the attention, the practice does the work.

Where does your moonstone come from?

Every piece of moonstone in the catalog has its country of origin noted on the product page. Where we can name the region or the mine, we do. If we can't verify it, we say so rather than guess.

How do I know your moonstone is real and not dyed?

Every piece of moonstone we sell is hand-graded and checked against known treatment patterns before it's listed. If a stone has been dyed, heated, irradiated, or coated in any way, we disclose it on the product page. Our sourcing goes through the Beyond Ethical supply network, which means we know who handled the rough before us. No mystery lots, no filler, no dyed stones passed off as natural.

How do I cleanse and care for moonstone?

Most people cleanse moonstone with sound (a bell or a singing bowl), smoke (sage, palo santo, cedar), moonlight overnight, or by placing it on a piece of selenite. Moonstone is moderately soft at 6-6.5 on the Mohs scale, so short water rinses are fine but avoid long soaks. How often is up to you. A weekly reset is a common rhythm, but there's no rule. The practice matters more than the schedule.

Moonstone is an orthoclase feldspar prized for adularescence, the floating inner glow that seems to move beneath the surface when you tilt the stone. The optical effect comes from alternating thin layers of orthoclase and albite that scatter light like a natural holograph. The family covers classic white-blue Moonstone from Sri Lanka and India, Peach and Yellow Moonstone from Madagascar, Black Moonstone, Earth (grey) Moonstone from Brazil, and the so-called Rainbow Moonstone (actually labradorite). Traditionally associated with lunar cycles, intuition, feminine energy, and new beginnings, the stone that lets you see in low light.
