Cause of Adularescence in Blue MoonstoneBlue Moonstone is  a  gem from the feldspar group and is  composed of   layers  of albite – potassium rich aluminium silicate and orthoclase – sodium rich aluminum silicate. The schiller is produced because of light interference caused by the light having to weave its way through the layers with slightly different optical properties. The adularescence is caused by scattered light passing through the exsolution lamellae that act as scattering centres, creating a bluish hue/ lustre.What is Blue Moonstone used forThe Blue Moonstone has many   benefits   . Primarily in Vedic Astrology it is a superior alternative/ Upratna to be used instead ofNatural Pearl for harnessing the energies of the moon.© Gemstoneuniverse.com, All rights reserved.
