Определение и Значение "moonstone"

What is "moonstone"?

Moonstone is a type of feldspar mineral known for its unique visual effect known as adularescence. This effect occurs due to the scattering of light that creates a glow-like sheen across the surface of the stone. The stone is typically semi-transparent with a milky-white color, but can also have hues of blue, green, or peach. Moonstone is considered a gemstone and is often used in jewelry, especially in pieces with a bohemian or ethereal aesthetic. It is also believed to possess various metaphysical properties such as enhancing intuition, promoting creativity, and calming emotions.
