Red Moonstone

Red Moonstone is a rare and interesting variety of feldspar, known for its warm reddish tones and subtle internal glow. Like other moonstones, it forms through the intergrowth of orthoclase and albite feldspar layers, which scatter light to produce a soft shimmer known as adularescence. In red moonstone, trace minerals such as iron or hematite give the stone its distinctive peach to reddish-brown hue, adding warmth and depth to its natural iridescence. While most commonly associated with pale colors like cream or blue, this variety offers a richer, earthier expression of classic moonstone beauty.

Metaphysically, Red Moonstone is connected to emotional healing, intuition, and feminine energy. It is believed to support the heart and sacral chakras, helping to balance emotions, strengthen intuition, and spark creative flow. Its gentle energy is said to encourage self-love, ease anxiety, and promote nurturing connections with others. Red Moonstone is especially valued for inspiring emotional strength and resilience, offering a calming yet empowering presence during times of transition or inner reflection.
