The birthstone

Modern & Traditional

Moonstone

Tilt a Moonstone in the light and watch its adularescence, that ethereal blue glow that seems to come from somewhere deep within. This is the stone of new beginnings, sacred to lunar goddesses across cultures. June's birthstone carries the cyclical wisdom of the moon: everything waxes and wanes, and there's beauty in every phase. For June-born souls, Moonstone enhances intuition, balances emotions, and supports the natural adaptability that comes with being born at the turning point of the year. Citrine makes a luminous alternative for those who want to carry summer's warmth with them, bringing abundance and optimism to complement Moonstone's reflective depth.
