Once called the travelers stone, moonstone was used for protection against the dangers of travel. It was also a talisman of good fortune and was said to keep that which was dear to us closer. According to legend, the brightness of moonstone increases as the new moon becomes full and Indians consider it sacred as it is believed that one can see into the future if the stone is held in the mouth when the moon is full. It is a "feeling" stone, enhancing understanding via intuition and emotion rather than via intellectual reasoning. It can be helpful in alleviating emotional tension and enhancing creativity and self-expression. It is said to promote ease in pregnancy and childbirth, to relieve the symptoms of pre-menstrual stress and change of life and to eliminate insomnia (an ancient remedy). Moonstone is one of the birthstones for June, symbolizing health and longevity and is Monday's gemstone.
