A feldspar mineral exhibiting adularescence – a shimmering, milky appearance caused by light scattering within its layered structure. Often pearly white or bluish-white, moonstones are valued as gemstones and historically believed to possess lunar energies.

Moonstone is derived from the Old English 'mōna' meaning 'moon'.

Moonstone is a special rock that looks like it has moonlight inside because of how light shines through it.
