Energetic Jewels and Colors
Energetic Jewels and Colors
I have always been greatly influenced by color..and I think that is one of the main reasons that I paint and create jewelry. I can revel in the colors and experiment with their mixtures and nuances…its a joy, in a word!
I, like many people these days, am getting very interested in alternative healing and vital in general.
And I do know that color does affect one’s feelings, moods, and emotions, although often in a subconscious manner..
As you may already know, colors are certain wavelengths of electro-magnetic energy seen through our eyes. The color we see is the part of the visible spectrum that is reflected back by a certain object, and every color has an energy property and vibratory rate.
Colors have a symbolic meaning which is immediately recognized by our subconsciousness. It must be said that not all colors mean the same to all persons and all cultures.
They influence the flow and amount of energy in our bodies.
When designing the jewelry and putting colors together for instance, in my Harmony Collection, I have used several color pallets for specific energetic purposes: some of this information comes from Color Therapy – Chromotherapy
Each color group effects certain energies:
Green:
Healing properties: Green is the color of Nature and the earth. It is balance and harmony in essence and possesses a soothing influence upon both mind and body.
Blue:
Healing properties: Blue is cooling, electric, astringent. Dr. Edwin Babbitt, in his classic, “The Principles of Light and Color,” states that “The Blue Ray is one of the greatest antiseptics in the world.”
Indigo:
Healing properties: Indigo is a great purifier of the bloodstream and also benefits mental problems. It is a freeing and purifying agent.
Indigo combines the deep blue of devotion with a trace of stabilizing and objective red. Indigo is cool, electric, and astringent.
Violet / Purple:
Healing properties: These are colors of transformation. They heal melancholy, hysteria, delusions and alcohol addiction and bring spiritual insights and renewal. These colors slow down an over-active heart; stimulate the spleen and the white blood cells (immunity). Bring sleep. Soothe mental and emotional stress. Decrease sexual activity. Decrease sensitivity to pain. They help in detoxification.
Leonardo da Vinci proclaimed that you can increase the power of meditation ten-fold by meditating under the gentle rays of Violet, as found in Church windows.
Orange
Healing properties: Orange is warm, cheering, non-constricting. Orange has a freeing action upon the body and mind, relieving repressions. Orange shows new possibilities and other options in life. Stimulates creative thinking and enthusiasm, and helps assimilate new ideas.
Taking color a step further and adding the properties of gems and crystals , I believe you have a very interesting and powerful means of changing the energies.Here are some of the metaphysical properties according to Beadage
Aquamarines
Metaphysical Properties
Aquamarine is said to do many things metaphysically; it is often thought of as a universal sign of hope, health, and youth
This beautiful stone is supposed to help with anxiety, fear, and restlessness by creating a peaceful stillness like the flow of a forest stream.
Wearing Aquamarine earrings is said to bring love and affection
Amethyst
Metaphysical Properties
Amethyst – increases vivid dreams, relieves depression, promotes calm, serenity, and spirituality. Helps with addiction and stress.
Fluorite
Metaphysical Properties
Fluorite (multicolor) – enhances spiritual energy work, focuses the will and balances the psyche.
Topaz
Metaphysical Properties
Topaz – soothes physical pain, promotes peace and calms emotions, as well as promoting forgiveness. Promotes individuality, self-confidence, and creativity. Counteracts negative emotions.
I mentioned only a few of the properties I have found, and think that by combining the colors and the stones together, I believe you can have a powerful assistance in changing your energies. Of course theres the added plus of a beautiful jewel to wear as well! Or the other way around if one prefers!
