Labradorite comes from the Labrador region of Canada. This is a Canadian region where about a third of the population is indigenous people (Innu, Inuit and Métis). This incredible stone was discovered in 1770 by a group of missionaries from Central Europe who were tasked with evangelizing the local population.
The suffix "ite" comes from the Greek and means "mineral". Labradorite literally means "mineral from Labrador". It was not until 1780 that the geologist Mr. Foster named this stone labradorite.
This stone is sometimes called "rainbow moonstone". On the other hand, there is spectrolite which is a variety of labradorite, showing all the nuances of the light spectrum. Discovered during World War II in Finland, this mineral is somewhat reminiscent of the inside of mussel shells. Although the colors are similar, labradorite should not be confused with opal or moonstone.
There are several legends associated with labradorite. The most famous is that of the Scandinavian peoples. This legend says that labradorite has its magnificent iridescent reflections thanks to the northern lights.
At the same time, the Inuit explains that a young warrior broke an immense labradorite with his spear in order to release the celestial light. Shards burst from the stone and rose to the sky, forming the northern lights. Others spread across the earth, freezing eternally in the rock, creating these labradorite stones with splendid reflections.
Some natives were convinced that this stone was the link between the earthly world and the invisible world. They said that the rock contained the souls of their ancestors.
However, during archaeological excavations in Maine, various objects carved in labradorite were found. They date back to the year 1000 and were made by the Algonquin Native Americans.
A belief says that people who are attracted to labradorite are descendants of the sunken continent of Atlantis. For the record, Atlantis was a huge island, attributed to the god of the sea Poseidon during the division of the world. This island suddenly disappeared during a cataclysm caused by Zeus.
According to the ancients, labradorite has powerful healing properties. They say that by grinding it and reducing it to powder, it would cure many ailments. In the second half of the 19th century, many jewelers made fabulous jewelry in various styles from labradorite. They made cameos or notches in particular. Labradorites, of lesser quality, were used as facing stone on building facades or as ornamental objects for decoration.
Labradorite belongs to the plagioclase feldspar family, which includes silicates and tectosilicates. It mainly contains sodium, calcium, iron and magnesium. It diffuses magnificent blue, yellow or green metallic reflections caused by adularescence, a kind of shimmering due to the interference of the different internal layers, also called the Schiller effect. It forms in metamorphic or magmatic rocks. It has a hardness of 6 to 6.5 on the Mohs scale.
The main deposits are located in Madagascar, Algeria, Australia, China, France, etc.

In Lithotherapy, labradorite is a real protective stone with a sponge function. Indeed, it absorbs all the surrounding negative energies. Freed from these polluting energies, the mind becomes positive and psychologically balanced.
This stone is recommended for caregivers and people with empathy. It allows them not to get too emotionally involved in their pain and to provide them with understanding.
Labradorite effectively fights against anxieties, irrational fears and anxiety. It soothes its wearer and gives them serenity. It diffuses a feeling of well-being and calm. The mind can escape into peaceful dreams. Its energy, both radiant and warm, develops feelings of happiness, joy and peace.
This fabulous stone is said to be a stone of openness to others. It is ideal for people suffering from complexes and shyness. It generates a certain assurance and better self-confidence. It encourages compassion, understanding and love for others. It also helps lonely people to feel better.
It is a stone of inspiration that is perfectly suited to creative professions. It stimulates the mind and imagination. The creator can finally concentrate and fix his mind on the present. It effectively fights against procrastination.
