Sunstone is an oligioclase feldspar mineral with a hardness of 6 to 6.5. It has a triclinic crystal system and derives its name from its warm orange colour and sparkling inclusions. It can be found in Canada, USA, Norway, Greece and India. This particular material is from India. This mineral was first reported back in 1837 by J.D. Dana and was named for its shining colors being very similar to those of the Sun.
Sunstone is usually coloured from orange to brown red with sparkling inclusions of Hematite. Sunstone has been known as a stone of good luck because it brings light to all situations. Sunstone has been used to remove energy draining cords from other people to you. Sunstone was used by the Canadian Indians in medicine wheel rituals, and to the ancient Greeks it represented the Sun Gods. It was used in ancient India as protection against dark forces from other realms.
It’s rich reddish-orange facets contain all the healing power as the star, which shines high in our sky. It is the representation of Ra in Egyptian mythology and Helios in Greek mythology, both representations of sun gods.
Even further back, indigenous peoples believed that this crystal fell during solar eclipses, a part of our sun fallen from heaven. Sunstone has also been used in spiritual ceremonies and rituals throughout the ages. First Nations in Canada incorporated Sunstone into their medicine wheel healing ceremonies.
By placing Sunstone in the medicine wheel’s centre, they were able to show their patients the healing power of the sun. When contacted by a spirit guide, the stone would change different colours and shine.
Other cultures refer to it as a “phenomenal stone” for its way in which the light changed off its many angles during the day, with some even only wearing it on Sunday.
Sunstone allows you to find ways to make your dreams manifest. It enhances your ability to step forward in difficult situations with courage and enthusiasm. It makes work into fun through zest for action. Sunstone is very effective for lifting dark moods and increasing feelings of self worth. It instils confidence, motivation and optimism which enables our personal power to shine.
