Moonstones are
imbued with mystical properties of love and abundance. Moonstones, gems named for their
resemblance to the familiar glowing orb in the night sky, offer us more than
mere beauty. Their association with moon goddesses throughout the world may
explain why moonstones’ qualities seem to reach out to assist all those who
find themselves under the moon’s light, from travelers and those at sea to
lovers and dreamers. Throughout the world, moonstones have been imbued with
mystical properties that extend the fabled powers of the moon into daylight
hours. Moonstones, sometimes likened to a raindrop
or tear, have long reminded people in Asia that the moon cannot be seen
during the rain, just as it is difficult to see through our tears. In India,
they are thought to give sweet, beautiful dreams by night but have gained a
reputation for enhancing intuitive sensitivity and spiritual vision of the
“third eye” at any time of the day. This connection to the subconscious also
was recognized in the Middle Ages in Europe, where it was believed that
gazing into a moonstone would cause you to fall into a deep sleep that
allowed you to see the future. Their power is also believed to be connected
to fertility. In Arabia, women sew moonstones into their garments to enhance
their fertility. This association with fertility even extends to the
fertility of crops, which is why moonstone amulets have been seen hanging in
fruit trees before harvest. By bringing love and abundance into our
lives today and helping us to see the future, moonstones allow us to see the
hope of all good things in our lives. And to further enhance the power of
your moonstone, try putting them outside in the light of the full moon so it
absorbs its mystical power. |
