Larvikite, often mistaken for Labradorite due to its mesmerizing blue and silver flash, is a striking variety of monzonite primarily found in Larvik, Norway. Its shimmer comes from plagioclase and alkali feldspar inclusions, and the stone often contains titanium, olivine, and apatite.

This stone has been used since the 1800s in architectural detailing and is now recognized as a Global Heritage Stone Resource. While sometimes called Blue Moonstone or Blue Pearl Granite, its accurate name is Larvikite.

Larvikite is loved for its grounding and stabilizing energy. It’s especially useful during times of transition, offering support for adaptability, emotional balance, and inner strength. Many people turn to this stone when they're navigating change or trying to remain centered amid stress.

Sometimes called a “worry stone,” Larvikite is believed to help neutralize intense emotional responses such as anxiety. It works by gently realigning your energy toward peace, calm, and positivity. Rather than suppressing emotion, it helps you observe it more clearly so you can respond instead of react.


Its grounding energy also forms a protective barrier against negative influences, shielding your energetic field and helping you maintain a sense of harmony in emotionally charged or chaotic environments.

Larvikite is thought to be especially helpful when processing past experiences or trauma. It offers support whether or not closure is possible, encouraging acceptance, emotional release, and inner calm. Many find it useful in moments of deep reflection or healing work.


Larvikite’s frequency is also associated with cognitive support. It’s believed to improve mental clarity, learning, and focus—making it an excellent choice for students, professionals, or anyone absorbing new information.

Whether you're working through emotional heaviness or simply want a stone that keeps you clear, grounded, and focused, Larvikite offers a balanced, stabilizing presence.
