About Rainbow Moonstone

Rainbow Moonstone: Feldspar with a Flash of Magic

Rainbow moonstone is a luminous variety of feldspar, the most abundant mineral in Earth’s continental crust. While it shares some characteristics with labradorite—another feldspar—it is distinct in structure and formation, often forming in stacked layers that create its signature blue and rainbow flash (also known as schiller or adularescence).

Sometimes referred to as “white labradorite,” rainbow moonstone is technically a plagioclase feldspar, not a true orthoclase moonstone—but it still captures the same dreamy glow and remains a staple in metaphysical and jewelry circles alike.

Quick Facts:

• Mohs Hardness: 6–6.5 – Tough enough for daily wear, but treat with care

• Cleavage: Perfect in one direction, so handle gently to avoid splitting

• Birthstone for June – A glowing, ethereal alternative to traditional pearls

• Cultural Lore: Considered a protective stone for travelers and those seeking new paths

Whether you're drawn to its shimmer or its symbolism, rainbow moonstone is a stone that seems to hold light inside it—a perfect companion for those walking unknown roads.
