Sunstone & Moonstone

Happy Day, Everyone!

With the change of seasons and potential stresses of holiday times, today we are going to talk about two stones that can help us get through these trying times and nurture ourselves in the process!

Like the sun and the moon, which are ever-present in our sky, illuminating our world and providing direction, inspiration and balance, their stone namesakes, Sunstone and Moonstone carry their vibration and are here to offer you their comforting and balancing energies.

Sunstone, like the sun itself, is typically a yellow-orange color. It is a joyful stone that can be used to help you restore and nurture yourself and transforms negative into positive. Used during meditation it brings about a connection to light and the regenerative power of the sun. Sunstone has a clearing effect on the aura and chakras and can be beneficial in removing unhealthy ties with others who have a drain on your energy. Sunstone can also help remove codependency as it facilitates self-empowerment and independence.  Sunstone is a great help for seasonal affective disorder and helps lighten dark moods and lifts depression. Rheumatism and general aches and pains can be relieved with the use of Sunstone.

Moonstone is known as a stone of new beginnings. Like the moon, moonstone ranges from white to creamy-white in color, varying from milky to translucent. Additionally, as with the moon, moonstone reminds us that everything is part of a cycle of change. Moonstone is known to have a calming effect on the emotions and can help lessen overreactions, ease stress and just simply instills a general sense of emotional stability. For anyone, male or female, wishing to bring compassionate balance to their masculine/feminine energies, moonstone can be a great benefit. Moonstone may also provide relief and benefit to persons with digestive and reproductive issues.

While Sunstone holds the solar, masculine energy of the sun, Moonstone holds the feminine, lunar energy of the moon. These two stones are often used together in order to promote balance and harmony. These stones can be held during meditation, worn as jewelry or carried in your pocket. Upon request, I also have them available for use in healing sessions. It is important to note, however, that these stones and this information is not intended to replace the treatment of a licensed healthcare provider for any health condition.
