Moonstone is considered by some to be a sacred and magical gemstone, with the power to bring about pleasant and beautiful dreams. With its ghostly glow, this feldspar gem is indeed magical. Moonstone jewellery is an inspirational gift for your friend or loved-one for many events: At a Wedding for example (or Engagement), for the bride or bridesmaids – or as a lucky gift for a relative or colleague who is having a Confirmation or whose son or daughter is having their First Communion. (Or even as an inspirational good luck gift at a Baby Shower to celebrate the arrival of a new baby.)
To look at Moonstone is to see a truly magical gemstone. The Europeans of the Middle Ages thought that by looking into a moonstone, one could fall into a deep sleep and see the future, and so gifts of Moonstone jewellery were thought to be ideal for people who had dreams of a better life – whether in love, in their work / job or even in business. It can be associated as a birthstone for June.
Presents made from Moonstone are ideal for special events or occasions where a calm thoughtfulness is required, like First Communion or Confirmation. It is also suitable for guests at a Wedding who might be dreaming about their own future and happiness:
- 1st Communion – moonstone or other jewellery gifts of faith – like these gemstone necklaces
- Moonstone or other jewellery gifts of faith for a Confirmation – like this faith jewellery
- Wedding Day Gifts – moonstone or other wedding day jewellery

Charm stones were used by Native Americans for spiritual ceremonies, healing rituals, and to secure a productive harvest. And many a famous person has possessed one (and put their faith in it). In a letter to her brother-in-law, Henry III of France, Mary Queen of Scots wrote, "I send you two stones valuable for your health which I hope will be good, with a happy and long life. I ask you to receive them as a gift from your very affectionate sister-in law in a token of my true love towards you." Barack Obama, ex-US President, has been known to carry good luck charms, along with many hundreds of other well-known people: Napoleon carried one as did Franklin D. Roosevelt. They are also seen in many of the world's major religions such as Hinduism, Buddhism, and with some of the Australian Aborigines.
