So gear up for moon meditation….. Today we will talk about our beautiful crystal Moon Stone Moonstone; the stone of new beginnings. It is strongly connected to the moon and to the intuition. The stone is reflective and, re- minds us that, as the moon waxes and wanes, so everything is part of a cycle of change. Its most powerful effect is that of calming the emotions. Moonstone makes conscious the unconscious and promotes intuition and empathy. It encourages lucid dreaming, especially at the time of the full moon. Moonstone calms over reactions to situations and to emotional triggers. Moonstone is filled with receptive, passive, feminine energy. It balances male-female energies and helps men who want to get in touch with their feminine side. It is the perfect antidote for the excessively macho man or overly aggressive female. Moonstone affects the female reproductive cycle and alleviates menstrual related diseases and tension. It is linked to the pineal gland and balances the hormonal system, stabilises fluid imbalances, and attunes to the biorhythm clock. It is helpful in cases of shock and can be used to calm hyperactive children. Moonstone helps the digestive and reproductive systems, assimilates nutrients, eliminates toxins and fluid retention. It eases degenerative conditions of skin, hair, eyes and fleshy organs such as the liver and pancreas. It is excellent for PMS, conception, pregnancy, childbirth and breastfeeding. Moonstone crystal water has been traditionally used for insomnia and the stone can prevent sleepwalking. Wear as a ring or place on the appropriate body part - forehead for spiritual experiences and solar plexus or heart for emotions.
