Moonstone: Meaning, Properties, and Which Piece of Jewelry to Choose?

At Atelier Calésia, if there's one stone that has always captivated me, it's the moonstone.

First of all, because of its softness. When you hold it, it feels like you’re holding a little piece of heaven between your fingers.

For its milky, pearlescent color, which changes with the light, as if it were breathing.

For its soothing qualities, which calm the mind and bring us back to the heart.

And above all, because it reminds me of a star. A star you could wear against your skin, right next to your soul.

If you've made it this far, it's no coincidence. It's because she called you, too.

What is the meaning of the Moonstone?

It is called the stone of new beginnings. For centuries, it has been the stone of the Sacred Feminine. Not the feminine on the surface—no. The deep, intuitive feminine—the one that feels before it understands.

It is the Moonstone itself. It holds within it the cycles, the inner tides. It does not judge. It welcomes. When I work with a Moonstone in my Signes studio, I always picture a star that has gently fallen into mother-of-pearl.

What are the three virtues of moonstone?

1. It soothes emotions and relieves stress. It calms the thoughts that keep going round and round in your head at night and helps you get a restful night's sleep.

2. It fosters intuition and creativity. It helps you listen to that little inner voice that we all too often ignore.

3. It supports femininity and menstrual cycles. It is THE stone for women. It brings gentleness and comfort.

How do you cleanse and recharge your moonstone?

To clean it: simply rinse it under a steady stream of clean water for a few seconds. No salt.

To recharge it: place it in the moonlight, on a windowsill, overnight. Be sure to avoid direct sunlight. I always purify each piece of jewelry before sending it to you from my studio.

Which moonstone piece of jewelry is right for you?

If you're looking for a subtle piece of jewelry to wear every day—something that accompanies you like a little secret star—I recommend a moonstone bracelet.

If you need to feel more grounded and protected, a necklace with a beautiful moonstone resting against your neck will be perfect.

Every stone is unique, just like every woman. All of my jewelry is handcrafted with love in my studio in the South of France.
