A Sunstone cabochon is a gemstone that has been shaped and polished to be a dome shape on the top and is usually flat on the bottom. These sunstone gemstone cabochons are a distant cousin of moonstone, this pretty gem is filled with warm, golden glitter, available in a range of shapes.

Cabochons are great to use in healing sessions and to carry around in a pocket and these will make wonderful jewelry pendants. Sunstone was used by the Canadian Indians in medicine wheel rituals, by the ancient Greeks to represent the Sun Gods, and in ancient India for protection from dark forces from other realms.

Metaphysically, Sunstone is known for its powerful connection to the light and power of the sun. Sunstone brings light to all situations, and carrying a piece around with you can help your personal power to "shine."

Once known as a stone of good luck, Sunstone has a bright, joyful energy that increases vitality and lightens dark moods. Sunstone helps empower those who feel persecuted or abandoned by others instilling confidence, optimism, encouraging motivation, and positive action.
