Energy
Most of us have heard how gemstones have
"energy." This is NOT myth. However, how effective and to what degree
these energies can be defined, that's another story. But, there are no
doubts as to conductivity...and humans, like all living things, are really
a bunch of atoms bouncing around and responding to other energies around
it.
Suffice it to say, for example, that silver
has the highest conductivity of all metals. It draws energy (negative
and positive fields indiscriminately) and, unlike gems, does little to
convert (refract that energy). Tourmaline, on the other hand, becomes
"pyroelectric" when heated. If you're wearing it, and you get excited
or stressed, it literally takes your energy and draws heat out of the
body, some say creating a little field around you. Quartz varieties, such
as Amethyst and Citrine, do this as well. Amber will also produce a slight
field, but it will not draw heat away from the body. (Imagine that, before
science could prove data, ancient peoples actually felt the properties
of certain gemstones, and, so, the myths born actually have some scientific
foundation.) |
