Archangel Michael lovingly reminds us of the night, when the moon moves through her phases. The phase of the new moon leaves us in the darkness of the sky or the void, when the night comes alive. The moon can also represent our shadow selves or the parts of ourselves we deemed unlovable. Or maybe the moon for you can represent the fear of the unknown. But Sunstone and Archangel Michael remind us of the light at the end of the tunnel, the sun. The sun never fails to rise much like the light within us will never let us down. Sunstone can give you the confidence to love and move through the night by focusing on the joy of your heart and the light you possess within.

Sunstone reminds you to love, enjoy, and embrace the darkness.
