Larvikite gets its name from Norway’s Larvik Municipality, the islet-spotted coastal community where it was first discovered. It’s a form of feldspar closely related to both Moonstone and Labradorite, which is why some refer to it as Black Moonstone or Black Labradorite. Like Labradorite, this smoky gray-black gem displays a mesmerizing labradorescence — a glittery flash of color caused by light diffracting off its thin internal layers.
This shimmering stone vibrates at a frequency similar to Labradorite, inspiring a sense of magic and possibility with its brilliant flashes of color. It’s a gem of intuition that illuminates your inner wisdom and helps you swiftly download whatever lessons need to be learned so you can move forward with grace.
Also like Labradorite, Larvikite holds a strong grounding and protective energy that repels negative vibrations and removes dark magic and hexes. It clears the body and auric field of any energy that no longer serves, including old emotional wounds and trauma from past lives.
