Re: Question about jewelry

August 31, 2004

Hello Sheila,

S> I don't wear jewelry and often wandered if there was any connection

S> between wearing gold or silver on your body and certain health

S> problems.

i can only wear real gold or silver -anything else causes a

rash

a friend gave me a garnet necklace and some amber earrings

to wear as it was supposed to help with thryoid healing but

they all broke on the same day which i took to mean that they

were now not the right thing for me to wear.

Another friend suggested lapis lazuli as a thyroid healing

stone but i haven't bought any yet

Best regards,

If you think that's a strange question then you are going to love my

answer

As far as gold, silver, etc...I have not heard a lot on it's

reactions based on medical illness. I know silver tends to turn on

some people and not others. Probably depends on the amount of a

certain chemical in your body.

Now what I can help with is jewelry in general. Not sure how many on

the list believe in " New Age " remedies but here are a few things you

can do with jewelry.

Colors and stones each have healing properties. For instance,

Citrine helps depression and anxiety, amethyst is an all around

healing stone, red stones tend to help with blood disorders, and the

list goes on. A lot of people have found relief from symptoms of

certain disorders by wearing jewelry with the appropriate stone for

the type of healing. This might sound corny to some, but this has

all been tested for years and years and a lot of these " of wives'

tales " have worked for centuries.

To take it a step forward it is believed that illness stems from

Chakras (energy centers in the body) being out of balance. This is

ancient Eastern knowldge so don't laugh yet. Since the thyroid is

located at the 5th chakra (the throat chakra)the color to help

balance is blue. Blue stones are also VERY healing. Wearing a blue

stone around your neck might be worth trying for a while I could

go on for days, but I am sure I am boring you all with my Hoodoo.

Now that is wild... I love the color blue... everything that I can possible get in blue I will.. when I bought my house the first thing that I did was paint the livingroom blue... and this disorder that I have is genetic in origin.. bad TSH receptors..... From birth.... So was I drawn to a color because it helped my poor abused thyroid being over worked????

I know that as my hyper increased I went crazy with my cravings for strawberries, soy nuts, brussel sprouts and kohlrabi.....

I strongly believe the body knows a lot more than we give it credit for.. we just have to learn to listen...

This interests me if you'd like to run with it...

This interests me too,

The following is taken from

http://www.kacha-stones.com/chakras.htm

“Chakras are subtle, dynamic energy vortexes and are

as much a part of our bodies as arms or legs. You

can't see electricity, but when you turn on the light,

you see its effect. The chakras can similarly be

understood by their effects.

Physical organs and maladies in the area of a chakra

can be treated with stones of the colour relating to

that chakra. It is not surprising that our subtle

energy centres are especially connected to the

physical body in their location. A basic example of

this would be using green stones like chlorite or

peridot to treat heart conditions. Wearing the stone

over the heart as a pendant has the advantage of being

in the most beneficial area almost continuously.

Seventh/Crown: white, violet - Amethyst

Sixth/Third Eye: indigo/dark blue - Blue

Dumortiertite

Fifth/Throat: light blue - Blue Lace Agate

Fourth/Heart: green, pink - Rose Quartz

Third/Solar Plexus: yellow - Yellow Aventurine

Second/Sacral: orange - Carnelian

First/Base: red/black - Black Obsidian

The constitutional properties of quartz including its

ability to be programmed, means it can be used on any

or all of the chakras. Programmed means nothing more

than the ability of quartz to accept the imprints of

the mind, in the same way wet sand accepts the

imprints of our feet. This is the nature of quartz -

it accepts, stores and transmits information. Native

Americans understand quartz crystals to be the

" braincells " of Grandmother Earth. One of the reasons

for this is because their shaman could perceive the

peculiar quality of quartz to interact with the human

mind naturally. “

YES! I always tought I was weird because one day I would just wake

up and want a piece of jewelry or have a new favorite color. I had a

facination with stones and realized I would go through phases on

which ones I liked the most. I would go into a shop and look at all

the stones. I would get one that " spoke " to me. Not even the

prettiest. When I took it home and researched it I always found it's

properties to be something I was going through in my life. When I

first started having libido problems I found myself attracted to

Carnelian stone. I never even liked the color orange! I bought a

ring and then some loose stones. Turns out it helps sexual

dysfunction! Too weird to be a coincidence. I don't have all my info

at work so I'll have to type up a little something when I get home

and have my books and notes in front of me.

You know how people say if you crave a food that means your body

needs whatever is in it?? I believe the same thing about colors and

stones. I have been an amethyst collector for years now....I later

learned it is excellent for healing. You are attracted to blue

because it makes you feel good or reminds you of calming waters.

Same effect as a blue stone. I just painted my apartment red, orange

and yellow (it looks great)I needed more energy and I am sure that's

why I picked those colors!
