Eastern astrology believes that planets rule the zodiac signs.
Each planet emits cosmic radiations that affect the lives of people. Gemstones
have their own vibrations that can balance the radiations of the planets. Thus wearing the correct birthstone
can help better ones life.
The
source of all energy in this world is sun light. This white light breaks into a spectrum of seven
colors when it goes through a crystal
pyramid or prism. There are seven chakras in the human
body. Seven colors of the spectrum each correspond to one of the chakras in the body. This is the principle on which Color Healing is based.
Crystal and
Gemstones absorb certain colors and let only some colors to pass through when light falls on them. Thus crystals can be used in color healing or chakra healing. Amethyst
is recommended for the Crown Chakra; Sodalite or Lapis
Lazuli for the Third Eye Chakra; Turquoise
or Amazonite
for the Throat Chakra; Jade
or green Aventurine for the Heart Chakra;
Citrine,
yellow Sapphire
or Topaz for
the Solar Plexus Chakra; Hessonite
or Carnelian
for the Sacral Chakra; and Garnet
or Ruby
for the Root Chakra.
Crystal
Jewellery has been a symbol of power and status through out the ages and
across civilizations. Religious priests in all ancient societies have been known to wear crowns embellished with mystic stones like Opal,
Moonstone,
Lapis
Lazuli, Topaz
etc. Not just the diamonds but even
Ruby,
Sapphire,
Emerald
have adorned the crowns of the Kings and Monarchs. The very widespread use of
Jade
as a healing
stone has been well documented through the long history of Chinese
Civilization. It is believed that to maintain her legendry beauty Cleopatra used to take bath in water charged with
Amethyst
and Quartz
Crystal. Various sects and societies have been known to use Bloodstone
to heal blood related disorders; Kidney
stone or Malachite
as a cure against stones; and Hematite
and Amethyst
for pains of the bones and backaches. Red
Coral is believed to help against the pain of arthritis whereas White
Coral keeps the skin healthy.
Crystal Jewelry can be worn in the form of Crystal Necklaces,
Crystal Pendants,
Bracelets or
Ear rings.
Not only is it enchanting to look at but also has a healing affect on the human
body.
Sterling Silver makes these
Semi-Precious Stones into dazzling, regal
jewelry pieces.
Nature seems to create its own artistic masterpieces sometimes in the form of beautifully
shaded Jasper, mystic
Agate
in various laced agate formations, multi-shaded
Tourmalines and
Fluorites, families of
crystal clusters, dazzling
Tiger Eye and
Iron Pyrite
which is also called Fool’s Gold for obvious reasons.
Agate is also found in formations that look like a
Cat Face and sometimes like the
Human Eye.
Seer’s and Clairvoyants also make use of crystals
to do scrying and
dowsing. Fortune tellers do
crystal gazing using
Crystal Balls and dowsers use
Crystal Pendulums that can answer all kinds of questions.
There are scientific evidence of
the energy
associated with crystals. Scientists like
Marcel Vogel spent
years doing research on crystals.
Vogel shaped a quartz
crystal into a Double terminator, which he found resonates at the same frequency as water, the
principle ingredient of the human body. That is why it is now a huge world wide trend to keep crystal
figurines and statues
as decorative
pieces on your living room mantle piece. Decorative
Quartz Clusters are kept in the lobbies of hotels and reception areas in offices not only for their dazzle but also because of the
positive energy that they emanate.
