Moonstone has captivated the hearts of jewelry lovers for centuries. The stone's seemingly bland appearance is made spectacular with the presence of light and movement. The glowing sheen and soft color are luring. Learn about common and not so common moonstone facts and uncover the unique history and meaning of the stone. Moonstone is a mineral of the orthoclase feldspar group and is composed of potassium aluminum silicate. It is distinguished from other similar stones by the presence of adularescence. Though the stone has optical qualities similar to some labradorite stones, labradorite is a plagioclase feldspar whereas moonstone is orthoclase feldspar. Plagioclase feldspar is composed of calcium and sodium and orthoclase Adularescence is the optical phenomenon that causes the extraordinary glow on the surface of moonstone. The light moves across the stone much like moonlight would glide across a large body of calm water. This happens when light reflects off of the thin layers of different feldspar minerals within the moonstone. The layers act as a diffuser, softening the light and allowing it to bounce around the stone. Moonstone is a healing stone that has been connected with water Zodiac signs.
