Moonstone: The moon represents divine femininity in feng shui and many other spiritual traditions. Moonstone energy is yin, reflective, receptive, and connected to your subconscious. As the moon cycles connect you to nature, the spiritual meaning of moonstone also reminds you that your life also ebbs and flows.
Color Play: The primary feature of rainbow moonstone is its adularescence, a glowing or shimmering effect that seems to float just beneath the surface of the stone. This effect is caused by the interference of light within the layers of the gemstone. The flashes of color can range from soft blue to milky white, and sometimes include shades of pink, green, or orange.
Transparency: Rainbow moonstone is usually translucent to transparent, and its play of color is more visible in well-cut and polished stones.
Cut: This gemstone is often cut into cabochons (smooth, rounded, and polished) to enhance its iridescent effect. Faceted cuts are less common as they can diminish the play-of-color
