Known as the ‘Queen of Gems,’ the Opal Gemstone is a beauty worthy of the title. Its incredible pearly white lustre paired with the auroral display of the vibrant ‘play of colours’ across its surface, makes it one of the most unique gemstones around the world.
Similar to other Vedic gemstones, the Opal gemstone is ruled by a celestial body, namely, the planet Venus or Shukra. This planet symbolizes the human desire and its effects bring to its wearer all that their heart desires.

Significance of Opal Stone
Interestingly, one of the many myths attached to the Opal stone calls it the ‘Patronus Forum,’ which translates to ‘patron of thieves.’ People erroneously believed the Opal granted invisibility to the wearer.
The true meaning here is that the Opal stone acts as an ‘invisible shield’ for the wearer against negative agents and influences. A natural Opal stone makes for a perfect gift for pregnant mothers as it helps calm the turbulent mind, eases depression, protects from nightmares, and vibrates with the energy of the Mother Goddess.
- It connects the wearer to their spiritual side while bestowing universal awareness upon them. This stone picks up the wearer’s thoughts, desires, feelings, emotions, and amplifies them, thereby making the wearer more in tune and aware of themselves and others.
- It helps clear the mind and opens it towards rational, critical, and logical decision-making while promoting the free flow of thoughts.
- The Opal stone assists the wearer through negativity and provides reflection and clarity to the wearer’s mind about the unpleasant emotions or reactions they deliver or receive.
