Labradorite Meaning and Metaphysical Properties
Labradorite is known as a gemstone of awakening, sparking positive change, and personal evolution. Since it is associated with the Higher Chakras-- Throat Chakra, Third Eye Chakra, and Crown Chakra-- Labradorite is typically used for creativity, spiritual growth, and seeking metaphysical wisdom. Labradorite is thought of as a gem for strengthening psychic abilities such as prophetic visions, telepathic power, clairvoyance, and clairaudience, allowing us to be more receptive to inspiration, intuition, messages from the universe, and the well of our own magic. Labradorite is also believed to encourage the growth of new skills and ideas so that we can express ourselves openly and authentically. This makes Labradorite a wonderful crystal for new beginnings, since it is very much a stone for being yourself and finding the wonder within. It is also extremely helpful for anyone engaging in creative or supernatural pursuits, since this gem promotes looking at the world from new perspectives and opening the mind to new ideas.

Labradorite is a natural gemstone variety of Anorite, a Calcium rich type of plagioclase Feldspar in the Albite-Anorthite series. Because of the lamellar structure of Labradorite, it can exhibit a schiller effect, more commonly referred to as "flash" or "labradorescence." This is caused by the way light plays over lattice distortions within the stone's structure. Not all Labradorites exhibit this brilliant shine, even if they have the right composition, since it is not visible from all angles after polishing. However, Labradorite has been found with a schiller effect exhibiting many different shades, resulting in various colors: Blue, Green, Golden, Pink, Purple, orange, and Red. When multiple shades appear on the same stone, it is sometimes referred to as rainbow labradorite. Labradorites that exhibit a particularly strong labradorescence due to natural exsolution of K-Feldspar (Potassium dominant Feldspar) are sometimes called Spectrolites and are highly prized for their use in making natural stone cabochons for crystal jewelry.
