Moonstone — Chandrakant Mani

A calming Moon substitute — traditionally worn for emotional balance and intuition.

About this Gemstone

Moonstone is traditionally used as an accessible substitute for Pearl in Vedic astrology when strengthening the Moon is called for — its soft sheen (adularescence) has long been associated with calm, reflective energy. It is popular with those seeking Pearl's emotional-balance qualities at a lower price point.

Traditionally recommended as a gentler, more affordable substitute for Pearl when the Moon in the birth chart benefits from strengthening, particularly for emotional steadiness and intuition.
