Labradorite PyramidWith its mesmerising iridescence, Labradorite is a gem that holds a wealth of mystique and enchantment. Named after the Labrador Peninsula in Canada where it was first discovered in the late 1700’s, this captivating stone has been revered for centuries. This gem is also known as the “Temple of the Stars” by the indigenous Inuit people believing it to be from the frozen fire of the Aurora Borealis.

Labradorescence, the iridescence found in Labradorite, is created through a process called diffraction. This occurs as light waves interact with the distinct layers of various feldspar minerals within the stone, causing the light to scatter and interfere. These interactions lead to the separation of the visible spectrum into vibrant colours. As Labradorite is moved or observed from different angles, the colours shift, creating a dynamic and enchanting visual effect.

The Spiritual Vibes

Throughout history, Labradorite has been valued as a powerful tool for awakening one’s inner magic and intuitive abilities. Its iridescent flashes are thought to reveal hidden truths and unveil the unseen realms. This stone acts as a protective barrier, shielding the aura from negative energies and promoting a sense of balance and harmony.

Labradorite resonates deeply with the Third Eye and Crown Chakras, making it a conduit for heightened intuition and spiritual insights. It aligns with the watery energies of the Moon, inviting you to explore the depths of your subconscious and connect with the divine feminine energy.

Labradorite's Favourite Pairing Crystals Labradorite Sphere
