The stone was also used to promote fertility, marital happiness, and financial prosperity.

In the Middle East, women have been wearing moonstone jewelry for fertility and devoted love for centuries. It was not until the end of the eighteenth century that Moonstone was used in Europe as a gemstone and healing stone. This was mainly due to the book The Moonstone by Wilkie Collins from 1868. In India and Sri Lanka they see Moonstone as the gemstone for the third eye. Wearing the stone would increase spirituality and insight.
