An Introduction to Sunstone

The warm, radiant hues of the Sunstone crystal closely resembles the sun, hence the name. According to Greek and Egyptian stories, it is believed that Sunstone was a gift from the sun god Ra.

Sunstone is a member of the Feldspar family, which exhibits a glittery effect, much like Aventurine. This aventurescense is caused by inclusions of Hematite, Goethite or Pyrite. Tiny inclusions of these minerals cause both opaqueness and pigmentation within the translucent body of the gem, while larger inclusions create the mesmerizing light refractions. Sunstone can take on a variety of shades, ranging from orange, gold, red and brown.

Sunstone helps you feel empowered to make the decisions that are best for you. One key element of this empowering stone is its ability to help you remove emotional "hooks" from other people that drain your energy. This in turn allows you to make the best decisions for your own highest good.
