Now that you know what
Moonstones
Cure, let's continue with what Moonstones are associated with...
Associations
Moonstone's Mother Earth Qualities have been associated with Gardening, Watering and Planting. Some even go so far as to bury the Moonstone in the dirt! Nature, Cycles and Fertilization are not the only thing linked to Moonstones...
Inner Psyche
The Inner Psyche uses the powers of the Moonstone also. Intuitive people use them as Divine Tools and keep them with Tarot Cards, Crystal Balls and Runes. (A lot of Runes are actually carved out of Moonstones!) The stones are strong with the Earth and linked to the Moon which heightens awareness and allows protection at night and on sea. (Wear it on Cruises!)
Popular Gifts
These reasons have made this stone a popular gift for Lovers, Sailors, Swimmers, Coast Guards, Pregnant Women, People that want Natural Healing, People with Birthdays in June, (Since Moonstone is an alternate for the June Birthstone!) People with a Green Thumb (Gardeners, Farmers) Psychics, Fortune Tellers, People who like to Meditate, Massage Therapists. (Moonstones are great for Rock Massages!)

Moonstone Hardness
Moonstones
are rated a 6-6.5 on the MOH's Scale of Hardness. Which means it's about the same hardness and durability as Pyrite. (Or Fool's Gold!) This hardness means that Moonstones can be scratched easily. Everyday use will show signs of wear and tear. The good thing is, when your Moonstone begins to dull up and lose its beautiful shine, you can always have a Jeweler repolish it again to make it look brand new! (Always a cool feature!)
A lot of Moonstones are kept in the pocket and used as Worry Stones or Worry Rocks. These are stones that you can gently rub with your thumb to relieve stress or tension throughout the day.
So now that you know what a Moonstone is, and what it's used for, the big question still remains:
Will Moonstones Cure Aches and Body Pains?
If you listen to my customers, I'd say yes. But then again, people will always believe what they want to believe. There's no proof or evidence in their cures. No one knows if any of these stones really work. But there's also no science that says they don't either... It's just one of those things you'll have to test for yourself.
If it works and gives you Divine Intervention, then who am I to say you're nuts?
No matter what, it'll always make for some beautiful Jewelry, Pendants, Rings and Earrings!
Maybe the Moonshine Glimmer and intense color will make you Happy and Fortunate too...
And then again, maybe it won't!
