Cosmic Gems for Menstrual Disorders

Menstruation takes place from the time of puberty until menopause. Except few lucky ones, women in general suffer silently from one or another type of menstrual disorders. A medical practitioner, on examination, would inform you the specific type of menstrual disorder you are undergoing. When this piece of information is ready then, check with this blog post to spot the right cosmic gems with apt cosmics for healing.

Amenorrhea: Relates to absence or delay in menstrual flow; if it is due to anaemia use Red coral with Opal; if caused by Ill health then settle for Rhodonite. Ametrine is recommended if you suffer from serious infection or illness.

Hypomenorrhea: Relates to scanty discharge; if it is due to anaemia use Red coral with Moonstone; if caused by Ill health then take Magnetite. Blue Chalcedony is prescribed if you suffer from serious infection or illness.

Dysmenorrhoea: Relates to difficult and painful menses with symptoms including prostration, vomiting and pain in the groins spreading to waist and/or thigh areas; if this is caused by, inflammation of internal organs uterus, ovaries and fallopian tubes use Rose tint pearl or Rose quartz. Use Tiger eye if you experience nervous issues along with spasmodic pains.

Menorrhagia: Relates to excessive bleeding during the period with symptoms including headache, giddiness, anxiety and pain in the calves. Menstrual flow begins with severe pain in the lower abdomen, back, or hip or sometimes in all three places, leading to weak and anaemic condition. Chief cause is imbalance in hormones that can be countered by Chrysolite or Moonstone. If you have abnormal growth in internal organs use Brown agate plus Bloodstone. General anaemia requires just a Jasper.

Metrorragia: Relates to excessive bleeding accompanied with change in the menstrual cycle with symptoms as in the case of Menorrhagia along with menstrual cramps. In addition to the cosmic gems recommended as above use either Chrysocolla or Serpentine.

Oligomenorrhea: Relates to extended menstrual cycle. If the frequency is 35 days, it may not be a matter of concern; however, occurrence after 42 to 84 days requires medical attention; if you are with thin-frame body or over-active in gym work and sports, you can use Olivine as gem & jewellery.

Polymenorrhea: Relates to a shortened menstrual cycle of less than 21 days. If you are clung to heavy alcohol use, night activity or stress, use Pyrope in gem & jewellery

Leucorrhoea: Relates to abnormal white discharge during menses with symptoms including pain in calves, lumbar region, nervousness, burning sensation, irritation and sometimes constipation or urinary problems. There are a number of situations giving rise to Leucorrhoea, for which cosmic gems with relevant cosmics are listed below:

Infection with foul smelling discharge - Lapis lazuli or Aquamarine

Metabolic disorders - Topaz or Amazonite

Hormonal disorders - Moon stone

Inflammation of womb after child=birth - Pearl (rose tint) + Quartz

Displacement of uterus - Orange tourmaline

Worm troubles - Rock crystal

Cosmic Gems for Treating Hypersomnia

Hypersomnia arises when a person sleeps more than it is necessary. Generally, an adult requires about 6 to 7 hours of sleep to maintain restfulness. Contrarily, long sleeping hours could affect the rhythm and balance in a person. During your consultation with a medical practitioner, you would be informed of the type and causes of hypersomnia you are diagnosed with. At this point, you must take little time to consider using cosmic gems to supplement medical treatment.

There are three most important types of hypersomnia, which are listed below along with the appropriate cosmic gems for you to use or wear as gem & jewellery. Suggested gems have relevant cosmics to enable you to respond to treatment effectively. Furthermore, these cosmic gems help you to maintain state of harmony within you.

Sleep Apnea

A condition where the flow of air to the lungs via nose or throat is disturbed, usually triggering snore. At some point, the breathing is halted with a sudden attempt made to revive breathing. Generally, it affects seniors past 50 years of age. This would make them sleep more. I recommend cosmic gems White zircon or White onyx to be worn as gem & jewellery.

Restless Legs Syndrome

A neurological disorder triggering un-pleasant sensation in one or both legs with an urge to move legs while at sleep. Causes include nervousness, kidney problems, pregnancy, aging factor, deficiency of iron. I recommend cosmic gems Chrysolite (yellowish peridot) or Sugilite to be worn as gem & jewellery.

Narcolepsy

This neurological disorder prompts you to fall asleep suddenly in the daytime. It affects students and seniors alike; it is due to the brain taking a rest something similar to heart attack but with a benign motive, because you sleep for about 15 to 20 minutes at maximum. When this interrupts your work schedule or become malignant, it needs attention. I recommend cosmic gems Verdalite (Green tourmaline) be worn as gem & jewellery.

The recommended cosmic gems are for general treatment. Having said that, instructions regarding use and wear, as cosmic jewellery requires further counselling.

Call me for value-added advice!

Cosmic Gems for Insomnia

Insomnia is defined as inability to fall sleep and while at sleep inability to maintain sleep for a reasonable time. When you have insomnia related symptoms, it would be better for you to counsel medical practitioner who would diagnose the causes and prescribe required medication. Thereafter you must think of perching on cosmic gems.

Insomnia symptoms include, waking-up frequently, arising in early hours and no sleep thereafter, sleep not giving you feeling of freshness in the morning, feeling tired and exhausted, painful eyes, giddiness, head-ache, nervous break-down etc. Insomnia accounts for nearly 70 % of the sleeping disorders. The incidence is much pronounced in the case of seniors over 40 years of age and those who suffer from chronic ailments such arthritis and diabetes.

Factors that cause insomnia include fear, anxiety, stress, medication, excessive caffeine, pain. Life-style changes such as longer nightlife, over-stimulation of mind by watching films and erotic scenes, physical exertion such as gym work or walking in the late evenings, taking after-noon siesta are specific causes for sleeping ailments.

Treatment must incorporate medical attention supplemented with the use of cosmic gems. Depending on the type of insomnia you are diagnosed with, different cosmic gems with relevant cosmics are recommended below for relief.

1) General Insomnia: Keep under pillow Clear quartz for adults and Amethyst for those children under 14 years of age. Alternatively wear Sodalite (pure blue) or Zircon (blue or colourless)

2) Delayed Sleep Phased Syndrome (DSPS): A syndrome making you sleep best in the wee hours rather than in the nightfall. Wear Unakite or Labradorite as gem & jewellery

3) Psychological issues: Use either Green Jasper or Opalite Jasper (also known as ice-cream opal – with a combination of purple, lavender and white colours)

4) Physiological issues: Use either Deep-green malachite or Turquoise

5) Medical issues arising from non-response to sedatives (sleeping pills) and stimulants: Wear either Azurite or Lapis lazuli (also known as Lazurite) as gem & jewellery

6) Nervous issues: Place either Smokey quartz or Hematite under the pillow

7) Negative cosmics pervading when you are exposed to unfriendly environment: Wear Hessonite, a brownish – orange garnet or Black obsidian as gem & jewellery.

Before deciding on the preferred gemstone, it would be better for you to assess your personal comics to ensure that, the chosen cosmic gems would work best for you.

Stress Management using Cosmic Jewellery

Stress is a silent killer in the modern society. Amongst the many types, work related stress is the chief culprit. Most of the people who are subject to stress often use ad-hoc measures without having long-term view. My suggestion is that in addition to whatever you are advised to do by specialist practitioners, think of wearing right cosmic jewellery. Here are few snippets:

Stress arises when you are unable to cope up with the steady flow of activities; it can arise in many situations including family, work, and education or even in social interactions. Generally, the symptoms of stress are less evident in the initial phase but becomes so harrowing in later stages. Some of these include irritation, anxiety, depression, lack of focus, sleeping disorders, mental and physical fatigue, loss of libido and tendency to brood and live in isolation.

In coping with stress, many of you want to be away from action as each piece of activity adds strain to your already burdened mental and physical condition. Prevarication and dilly-dallying is the common measure used in managing stress. Heavy drinking and smoking are also resorted to as an escape clutch. Some take it out on others by lashing out, making outburst of emotion and at times using physical violence. Quite a number slouch in front of TV pretend to be watching but not really. Retiring to bed at the wisp of the wind or getting hooked on drugs are few of the extremes measures adopted.

Preferred approach in dealing with stress dictates that you follow advice of the specialist practitioners such as doctors and psychologists along with opting for the use of gem & jewellery. Cosmic gems such as citrine, garnets, hematite, quartz, jasper, howlite and many others have vibration and sensation in calming your nerves and chasing away the blues. A host of metals are there for this purpose such as silver, titanium and space metal zirconium.

Combing the right cosmic gems and the relevant metals, you can make cosmic jewellery. To do so you need to do an appraisal of your personal cosmics arising from your background, environment, personality and finally your unique characteristics. Thereafter you can study the real causes of your stress and fashion out a cosmic jewellery in the type/style that is most useful and convenient. It can be a ring or a bracelet or can be a choker too. The shape of the jewellery is another issue; square pendant, round ring are some of the common shapes. Any symbols that can harness your cosmics such as flower, leaves and stars could also be selected.

Keep Talking to me!

Could Multiple Magnets Increase Overall Strength?

Magnetic jewellery articles are sold with either single magnet or with more than one magnets. Vendors of gem & jewellery often claim that these multiple magnets add-up to the overall strength. Assume there are three magnets of 1,500 Gauss each in your bracelet. It is claimed that the total magnetic strength is 4,500 Gauss. Is this correct? Read more for answer:

No, multiple magnets in gem & jewellery pieces do not add-up. The incremental value of adding one or more magnets is too marginal and can be ignored. In the above case may be the total magnetic flux is about 1,550 and not more. The real reason behind stacking multiple magnets is to ensure that magnetic flux strength touching the skin remains fairly constant. Let us assume you are wearing a magnetic bracelet. When you move your hand the magnet that was touching your skin moves away; the magnetic flux the skin obtained so far comes to nought. At this point another magnet touches the skin, consequently you tend to receive the same magnetic flux. Generally magnetic jewellery pieces are crafted in such a manner to ensure steady flow of magnetic energy.

Users of magnetic jewellery might experience higher or lower magnetic strength than that is advertised by the vendors. There are two plausible reasons for this phenomenon. One is that, amongst the magnets one may be much stronger than the rest generating higher magnetic flux. Lower strength is caused due to improper alignment of magnets that are stacked within magnetic jewellery article.

There are exceptions to this theory. In the case of bracelets made with more than one strands magnetic strength produced and sustained by magnets in each strand could add-up provided that these magnets are carefully arranged in multiple strands to cover a fairly wide area of the skin. Similarly, magnetic strength adds-up if you wear different types of articles such as bracelet, necklace, amulet, waist chain and anklet at one and the same time. This is because magnetic strength is felt in different parts of the body simultaneously.

Core and Surface Strength of Magnets

Fabricators and vendors of magnetic jewellery just state the Gauss rating of the magnets embedded in their article without specifying whether it is core or surface strength. Some of these magnetic jewellery articles boast and boost the Gauss strength often as high as 15, 000. There is a catch. Read to find out…

Magnets have two types of strength: core strength and surface strength. What is relevant for users of gem & jewellery containing magnets is to check out the surface strength as this s the one that penetrates the skin. Only few magnetic jewellery fabricators are willing to disclose both ratings. Many would not attempt to do so, lest it confuses the buyers.

Core strength: This is the nominal strength of a magnet. Different terminology is used to indicate core strength. Manufactured rate, Material value, Central gauss, Face value and Internal strength are some of the alternatives used by manufacturers to denote core strength.

Surface strength: This is the real strength of a magnet. Terminology used to refer real strength of magnet includes Actual reading and External strength.

You as a buyer and user have every right to ask from the sellers of magnetic jewellery the surface strength of magnets placed within the articles. If nothing is forthcoming or specified as surface strength then take the given Gauss rating by the seller and divide it by 4. For example if the magnetic jewellery piece is stated to possess 12,000 Gauss then you can easily find out that the surface strength as 3,000 Gauss.

However, original manufacturers of magnets, who are not jewellers, generally give a range value for both core and surface strength. For example, Neodymium magnet is marketed with a core strength between 10,000 to 12,500 Gauss and surface strength with a range of 1,700 and 2,500 Gauss.

Indicators of Magnetic Strength

Most of you buy and use magnetic jewellery. Well and good. You must also know how magnets used by gem & Jewellery industry fare in terms of magnetic strength. Here are five indicators that tell you the level of magnetic power.

1. Coercive Power: This is a shortened form of ‘coercive magnetic field strength”. Often abbreviated as “ Hc”, it indicates the point where a magnet loses its relative power vis-à-vis another external magnetic source. Alternatively we can say the point where the magnet gets de-magnetized by the presence of another magnet. This indicator is given as Mega Gauss Oersted (MGOe or simply as Oersted). The higher the Oersted the higher the coercive power. Neodymium demonstrates the highest coercive power for all magnets at 12,300 Oersted whereas Alnico has the lowest Oersted of 640.

2. Magnetic Flux Density: Also known as “Residual Magnetic Flux Density” and abbreviated as “Br” this indicates the maximum magnetic field strength that can be produced and sustained by a magnet. It is given in Gauss rating. Higher is better. Neodymium records the highest maximum flux density of 12,800 Gauss while Ceramic Ferrite ticks the lowest at 3,900.

3. Overall Energy Density: Related to the above two indicators, the overall energy density is given as an integer. It is often abbreviated as “Bmax”. Highest overall energy density is shown by the most robust one. Neodymium has the highest overall energy density of 40. Lowest Bmax of 3.5 is associated with Ceramic Ferrite.

4. Operating Temperature: Abbreviated as “Tmax”, this shows the maximum operating temperature up to which the magnet can function without losing its magnetic field. When this point is exceeded the magnet loses its strength and after cooling down it regains the magnetic field. Alnico has the highest Tmax of 540 degree Celsius. Contrarily the all-powerful Neodymium can be operated only up to 150 degree Celsius.

5. Curie Temperature: Abbreviated as “Tcurie” this indicates the temperature point where a magnet becomes permanently disabled and demagnetized. Once again Alnico shows the highest Curie temperature of 860 degree Celsius and once again Neodymium can be permanently disabled at 310 degree Celsius.

Cheers!

Why Use Alnico Magnetic Jewellery?

Alnico is an acronym referring to aluminium, nickel and cobalt alloy that was made into magnet. Its use in magnetic jewellery has never been explored. This blog post simply does that.

Discovered by Metallurgist Tokushichi Mishima of Japan in 1931 and developed over the years by many others, Alnico magnet remained as the strongest magnet on Earth till rare earth magnets were found in 1970s. Today rare earth magnets made from Neodymium and Samarium have eclipsed the use of Alnico in industry. But gem & jewellery industry is slowly waking up to find its usefulness in the field of magnetic jewellery. One key reason for this new-found awareness is the distinct alloy of elements that go into the production of Alnico magnet. In addition to aluminium, nickel and cobalt as main base, copper, titanium and iron are also added to make a formidable fortress of magnetic energy.

Alnico is fabricated using two processes casting and sintering. Significantly the sintered Alnico is packed with more power and can be produced in various shapes including disc, ring and rectangle. It is the only magnet that has a unique feature of conducting electricity resulting in the generation of electromagnetic energy badly needed by many users of magnetic jewellery.

Positive features galore in Alnico magnet. It can operate under adverse conditions and high operating temperature rising as much as 540 degree Celsius, highest known for any type of magnets. Similarly melting point known as Curie temperature is 860 degree Celsius which is once again the highest recorded for a magnet so far.

Magnetic Flux Density which is the measure that tracks the continuous production of magnetic power is ticked at 12,500 Gauss slightly below the Neodymium magnet. Alnico has several other plus points. High resistance to corrosion and high mechanical strength make it an ideal one for magnetic jewellery that uses main metals as diverse as silver, gold and titanium.

On the flip side, Alnico has low power of resistance to external magnetizing field. This we call as Coercive Magnetic Field Strength. At 640 MGOe (Mega Gauss Oersted). Alnico ranks lowest amongst the different types of magnets. As a result Alnico suffers from demagnetization when exposed to highly magnetized environment. Moreover, it can also suffer from demagnetization due to massive shock.

Despite these negatives, Alnico magnetic jewellery is ideal for bracelets, amulets and anklets with Gauss strength less than 3000 and where production of strong magnetic flux density in closed magnetic circuit is mandated. Children and invalids requiring intense but less magnetic power can safely use Alnico magnetic jewellery.

Alnico magnetic jewellery gives you positive cosmics in treating insomnia, neurosis, hypertension and relief of pain in bones and joints. It also provides you with a feeling of strength and sense of balance.

Samarium Cobalt Magnetic Jewellery

Rare earth element Samarium mixed with Cobalt is an excellent magnet that found its way to magnetic jewellery decades ago. Gem & jewellery industry has pounced on it for its dual function: its magnetic capability and anti-rusting feature. Read more…

Samarium Cobalt magnet is referred to by its short form name as “SmCo Magnet” or in much more user friendly term of “Samco”. Introduced in 1970 Samco is the second powerful man- made magnet after Neodymium. It is bio-compatible despite the scare over its constituent alloy of Cobalt. The mixture of Samarium with Cobalt has all the pluses the gem & jewellery industry is looking for: Samarium is hard and brittle Cobalt is lustrous and shatter-proof. Both are hypoallergenic and have excellent anti-corrosive capability. The finished product can fit in many types of jewellery wear including bracelet, amulet, choker and anklet.

Price and performance wise Samco ranks second to Neodymium. Yet in terms usability Samco scores well over its competitors in the magnet fraternity. It is the only magnet that can balance size, performance and price at even keel. May be for this reason Samco is used in aerospace industry where performance, size and price are parts of an equation. Added feature of Samco is that it can function under adverse conditions and high operating temperature rising as much as 350 degree Celsius.

Magnetic Flux Density which is the measure that tracks the continuous production of magnetic power is ticked at 10,500 Gauss. Due to this higher performance even quarter inch thick Samco magnetic strip would be more than sufficient for a bracelet.

Naturally Samco does not lose magnetism over the years and has higher resistance to external magnetizing fields. This we call as Coercive Magnetic Field Strength. For Samco this magnetic field strength is slated high. Consequently even if Samco is exposed to other magnets it would stay intact without losing its magnetic quality. You can test this hypothesis by walking through a magnetised environment. You would be elated to observe that your Samco magnetic jewellery does not suffer any loss of magnetism.

There are few disadvantages of Samco magnet though. Due to its brittle nature it is prone to chipping on edges; however it does not fracture unless you hit with a hammer. Samco magnetic jewellery gives you positive cosmics in the form heightened awareness, increased metabolism and relief of pain in bones and joints. A major negative is that for some users it can increase toxicity. Those who suffer from eye and skin irritation are advised to wear it after consulting with a health professional.

Strontium Magnetic Jewellery

One of the popular magnets used in magnetic jewellery is Ceramic Ferrite mixed with Strontium Carbonate. Most manufacturers of magnetic jewellery do not disclose what kind of Ceramic Ferrite mixture they are using. It is your watch out to find out this part of the story. Read for more details…

Ceramic Ferrite is simply mixture of ceramic clay along with Iron powder and either of Barium Carbonate or Strontium Carbonate. In this blog I am talking about Ceramic Ferrite made with Strontium Carbonate as a constituent alloy. The technical script for this Strontium mixed magnet is given as Sr Fe 12 O 19. Here are major salients of Ceramic Ferrite mixed with Strontium Carbonate:

1. Ceramic Ferrite with Strontium is easy to manufacture in various shapes and different sizes. Some of the shapes include round, square, rectangle, arc, triangle, horseshoe and so on. It can be subjected to multi type production processes including sintering, pressing and injection moulding. In gem & jewellery industry sintered one is very popular.

2. Gem & jewellery industry chooses this magnet as it can be mounted easily on jewellery wears such as bracelet, wrist band and wrap where it snugs in even the minute jewellery.

3. Although this magnet is brittle it is the choice of many for its inherent hardness which is measured in Mohs scale at 7 point and for the excellent anti-corrosion capability. Consequently no coating or plating is required. A major negative is the lower mechanical strength that forbids filigree type designs. In any case such designs are not needed in magnetic jewellery.

4. Price wise Ceramic Ferrite with Strontium is inexpensive due to several factors. Easy manufacturing process apart, the major raw material Strontium is cheap, abundant and a non-strategic material helping keep the prices tag within reach of many buyers.

5. As Ceramic Ferrite with Strontium has lowest magnetic flux density among the type of magnets its use is fairly restricted to magnetic jewellery where the required Gauss strength is 1,500 or less.

6. Ceramic Ferrite with Strontium is a permanent magnet with longevity. Moreover, it has fairly higher resistance to external magnetizing fields. This we call as Coercive Magnetic Field Strength. There is an option to have this magnet as soft and hard ones. The soft Ferrite has somewhat lower Coercive magnetic field Strength than the hard one. If you walk through highly magnetised environment your magnetic jewellery made of Ceramic Ferrite with Strontium might suffer loss of magnetism depending on whether it is soft or hard ferrite and the level of ambient magnetic force surrounding you.

7. This magnet variety has higher operating temperature capability. Maximum operating temperature of 300 degree Celsius means this magnet can be easily used in various types of jewellery. However, at operating temperature of 460 degree Celsius it would lose magnetic strength altogether.

8. One of the key pull factors of strontium mixed Ceramic Ferrite is that it stops pain signals travelling towards the brain. As a bio-compatible magnet it is harmless to plants, animals and human being. Another pull factor is that it resists weather and invasive chemicals and solvents. When you use Strontium mixed Ceramic Ferrite you get refinement, iridescence and luminous aura around you. You get physical strength reverberating in your bones and muscles; mental alertness cascading in your thoughts and actions. Lot depends on your personal cosmics and equally your liking of the Strontium mixed magnetic jewellery. Wise geek must do an assessment of personal cosmics before selecting magnetic jewellery decked with Strontium mixed Ceramic Ferrite.

Keep track!

Neodymium Magnetic Jewellery

Compact and powerful, Neodymium has become the heavily used magnet in many kinds of magnetic jewellery in spite of its relatively higher price. None the less, the price you pay is economical when compared with the magnetic strength that has been packed within Neodymium products. Find more details below...

Neodymium or “Neo Magnet” as it is popularly known was introduced in 1984 but came into everyday use very recently. It is one of the few big magnets that have been considered safe to be worn over the skin. It is made from rare earth metal Neodymium mixed with Iron and Boron. Technically it is notated as “Nd Fe B” where Neodymium is around 75%. The price of Neo magnet is high due to companies registering proprietary rights over the production process.

Used as bracelet, amulet, choker and anklet in magnetic jewellery Neo magnet has several features that make it the most desired magnet in the world:

1. Light in weight but projects higher magnetic flux density at 12, 800 Gauss which is the recorded highest for any type of magnets so far. Hence a small size neo magnet is sufficient when we are looking for Gauss strength of 3,000 or below. Today, most magnetic jewellery is made around this figure in the gem & jewellery industry

2. It does not lose magnetism over the years and has higher resistance to external magnetizing fields. This we call as Coercive Magnetic Field Strength. Consequently that Neo magnet can be exposed to other magnets without ever losing its magnetic quality. If you walk through highly magnetised environment your magnetic jewellery made of Neo magnet does not suffer loss of magnetism

3. Though Neo magnet has less resistance to corrosion this can be offset by coating Gold , Nickel and Zinc layer over it. Of late, Epoxy resin coating is also used to add anti-corrosion capability

4. Neo magnet is somewhat brittle and has lower mechanical strength yet for purposes of magnetic jewellery making this does not pose much of a challenge

5. This magnet variety has fairly low operating temperature capability. Any operating temperature over 150 degree Celsius demands extra caution.

6. Cosmics of using neo magnet is the key plus point. Unlike other type of magnets the moment you touch Neo magnet you get the feel of it running through your veins. You get so elated and float with strength of power within you. Recommended by analyst as the best magnet to balance your energy flow Neo magnet is useful in many ways in health and wellness.

7. Before opting for Neo magnet, you have to assess your personal cosmics and then determine the necessary gauss strength along with the type of wear such as bracelet.

Ceramic Ferrite Magnetic Jewellery

Moderate price and equally moderate magnetic strength are the twin features of Ceramic Ferrite magnet. Both factors combined together have placed this magnet as the key bastion on which tons of magnetic jewellery is made globally.

Ceramic Ferrite is simply mixture of ceramic clay along with Iron powder and either of Barium Carbonate or Strontium Carbonate. In this blog I am talking about Ceramic Ferrite made with Barium Carbonate as a constituent alloy. Let me explain my point of view. Although the typology Ceramic Ferrite is used to refer to either of these two elements Barium or Strontium it would be better if we restrict Ceramic Ferrite to Barium Carbonate mixture only. The technical script for this Barium mixed magnet is given as Ba Fe 12 O19. Here are salient points of Ceramic Ferrite mixed with Barium for your reading:

1. Ceramic Ferrite is easily manufactured in various sizes and forms: round, square, rectangle, arc, triangle, horseshoe and much more. It can be subjected to multi type production processes including sintering, pressing and injection moulding. In gem & jewellery industry sintered one is very popular. Historically sintered Ceramic Ferrite was the precursor of modern magnets as it was introduced in 1960s as cheap and convenient alternative to metallic magnets that were too heavy.

2. This type of magnet is sought after by the gem & jewellery industry to mount magnets of different sizes and shapes. Widely used in several types of jewellery wear including bracelet, wrist band and wraps Ceramic Ferrite snugs in even minute jewellery.

3. Though the magnet has hardness of 7 at Mohs scale in its favour it is very brittle. As a result its mechanical strength is low. Never the less this does not create snags while fabricating magnetic jewellery.

4. Ceramic Ferrite has excellent anti-corrosion resistance. Therefore, no coating or plating is required.

5. As Ceramic Ferrite has lowest magnetic flux density among the type of magnets its use is fairly restricted to magnetic jewellery where the required Gauss strength averages around 1,500 Gauss.

6. It does not lose magnetism over the years and considered as the most popular permanent magnet sold at an affordable price. Moreover, it has fairly higher resistance to external magnetizing fields. This we call as Coercive Magnetic Field Strength. Ceramic Ferrite is ranked third after Neo magnets and Samarium Cobalt in this regard. At the time of production the resistance to external magnetizing capability can be tweaked to soft ferrite or hard ferrite. Soft Ferrite has relatively lesser Coercive magnetic field strength than hard ferrite. If you walk through highly magnetised environment your magnetic jewellery made of Ceramic Ferrite might suffer loss of magnetism depending on whether it is soft or hard ferrite and the level of ambient magnetic force surrounding you.

7. This magnet variety has higher operating temperature capability. Maximum operating temperature of 300 degree Celsius means Ceramic Ferrite can be easily fixed in various types of jewellery. However, at operating temperature of 460 degree Celsius it would lose magnetic strength altogether.

8. When you use Ceramic Ferrite you get positive cosmics in the form of balancing between and amongst competing forces within you. Outside this magnet can place you in a stronger position to resist pressure and deflect negative energy. As a cautionary remark I must say, selecting Ceramic Ferrite dictates that you do a thorough assessment of your personal cosmics and then decide what type of magnetic wear you should choose and the relative magnetic strength.

Keep talking!

Magnetic has Double Meaning

We talk about a magnetic personality when we refer to someone who is so charming, charismatic and who captivates your attention not to forget of being so irresistible. In general you are drawn towards a magnetic person. However, in gem & jewellery the word magnetic is used to imply mutually opposite ideas. Read on……

The word magnetic is used in gem & jewellery industry in two sets of meaning. One is to imply that gems & metals can be attracted to any other external force such as a real magnet. For example, several types of Garnets including Almandine, Pyrope and Demantoid when placed within a magnetic field would be easily get attracted to this field. Similarly metals such as Iron, Nickel and Cobalt possess what we call magnetic properties that push these metals into the folds of any magnetic field.

This property of being drawn into a magnet is dubbed as “magnetic susceptibility”. In simple language we call this “being attracted to magnets”. The degree of being attracted to magnet differs from metal to metal and gem to gem. Some exhibit strong inclination to be picked up by magnet. Epidote and Magnetite are gemstones that possess strong magnetic properties. Iron is a metal that can be quickly grabbed by a magnet. These are classified as “Ferromagnetic”. Others carry fairly weak magnetic properties. Classified as “Paramagnetic” these metals including Platinum and Titanium show little enthusiasm in getting attached to a magnetic force. Hessonite and Grossular are couple of gemstones displaying weak magnetic ability.

Then there are gems & metals that are diamagnetic. This means magnetic force cannot draw these matters but instead expel them from the area of magnetic force. Bismuth, Cadmium, Carbon and Copper are the main minerals in this group; Sapphire and Zircon are notable gemstones in the diamagnetic category.

To add a twist in the meaning gem & jewellery industry, has introduced items that is magnetic in true sense of the word. A good example is magnetic jewellery made with real magnets. As you are aware a magnet carries magnetic force within itself enabling it to draw into its fold any matters that are susceptible to magnetic force. Needless to say, this magnetic jewellery attracts any matter that has magnetism within it. Most if not all these magnets are man-made from an alloy of two or more minerals. Ceramic Ferrite, Strontium Ferrite, Samarium Cobalt, Neodymium and Alnico are varieties of magnets used in the industry.

Do we have natural magnets in the world? Yes, Earth is embellished with a natural magnet in the form of Lodestone. It is the only mineral that acts as a natural magnet amidst all artificial magnets.

Gem and Jewellery for Neutral Skin Ton

Identification of neutral skin tone is a very recent phenomenon. Earlier it was understood that there were two broad divisions of skin tone into warm and cool categories. As research and analysis unearthed the new segment of neutral skin tone, it has also led to the search for appropriate gem & jewellery that could enhance glamour of those who have such neutral skin tone. This blog post is just about that.

By now you are well aware that skin colour is the external overtone and skin tone is the internal tone lying underneath. For this reason skin tone is alternatively referred to as “under tone”. You can do a small test to check whether you have got neutral skin tone. Look at the vein in your wrist, if it is neither exactly green nor blue then you have neutral skin tone. Consequently, neutral skin tone is further tweaked into leaning either towards warm segment or cool segment. Hence, it is surmised that, neutral skin tone is best accentuated with lighter tint of both warm and cool colours. Rose colour is the key test for you to confirm whether you have neutral skin tone or not. Just hold a piece of rose gold jewellery close to the wrist. If the wrist glows unexceptionally bright then you definitely have neutral skin tone.

Metals for jewellery: Apart from rose gold, presumably any alloy of gold with silver is a better choice for you. Gold finished, gold plated, rolled gold and gold filled silver jewellery is next in importance. Jewellery made from space age metals such as Niobium, Tantalum and Zirconium are recommended for that bright, polished and shiny look for you.

Gems: Colourless gemstone and diamonds are friends for you forever. Cosmic gems of blue-green combination such as Turquoise give fascinating glow to your neutral skin tone often enhancing your beauty and appearance. Opal, Moonstone, Topaz and Zircon are next in line. Ametrine, Alexandrite, Azurite and Agate are also flagged for your attention in the multi-coloured segment of gems & crystals. An interesting gemstone that cannot be ignored is brilliantly hued Spectoralite.

When you combine the above gems & metals you are ready to generate groundswell of cosmics, a kind of energy keeping you rejuvenated day and night. Undoubtedly for a neutral skin tone person this cosmics have two roles: one is to act as supply source of energy, the other, as you rightly guessed is to bring out the best in you in terms of smoother skin and remarkable and enticing aura. Of course, it begs the question as to how to choose the right gems & metals combination for you.

Gem and Jewellery for Cool Skin Tone

Skin tones are broadly divided into three types: warm tone, cold tone and neutral tone. Matching the right gem & jewellery with your each skin tone is an art itself. Let me give you a broad brush stroke about cool skin tone and how to match it by selecting right gems & metals.

You know skin colour is the external overtone and skin tone refers to the under laying colour. Generally skin tone is stated as “under tone”. You can do a small test to check whether you have cool skin tone. Look at the vein in your wrist, if it is blue then you have cool skin tone. The theory behind is simple. Cold spectrum begins from green colour and extends to blue and beyond. In order to confirm finding you just hold a silver jewellery piece close to the wrist. If the wrist glows in brightness then the matter is sealed: you have cool skin tone.

Metals for jewellery: Silver works best for cool skin tone followed by White gold, Stainless steel and most of the white or silvery metals such as Titanium, Niobium, Tantalum and Zirconium. Pride of place, however, goes to the platinum group of metals such as Platinum and Palladium.

Gems: White and bright gems are most suited for cool skin tone. Diamonds top the rating while gemstones including Pearls, White sapphire, Topaz, Zircon, Beryl (Goshenite) and Quartz are key cosmic gems that accentuate cool skin tone excellently well. Blue Sapphire, Topaz, Agate, Opal and Lapis Lazuli and purple colour Amethyst and Tanzanite are some of the other gems & crystals known to enhance cool skin tone. At the middle point it is the pink colour that acts as most promising one. By the way, the bench mark colour for cool skin tone is also pink. Ostensibly, Pink sapphire is the one that leads the selection from this segment that includes other fancy stones such as Garnet and Tourmaline.

As you are aware gems & metals when combined together generate whale of a lot of cosmics. For a cool skin tone person this cosmics form a key energy supply source. Proper selection of gem & jewellery is vital in receiving the energy cosmics from gems & metals to be transferred into your skin.

Gem and Jewellery for Warm Skin Tone

Matching the right gem & jewellery with your skin tone is indeed vital. Skin tones are broadly divided into three types: Warm tone, cold tone and neutral tone. In this blog post let me give you few ideas about warm skin tone.

First thing you should note is that skin tone is under laying colour of your skin often referred to as “under tone”. You can do a small test to check whether you have warm tone. Look at the vein in your wrist, if it is green then you have warm skin tone. The theory behind is simple. Warm spectrum consists of red, orange and yellow colours and green terminates the warm spectrum. To confirm the finding you just hold a gold jewellery piece close to the wrist. If the wrist glows in brightness there it is you have warm skin tone.

Metals for jewellery: Yellow gold is primary metal for you; jewellery from red gold, copper, pewter or brass is also apt.

Gems: Red, orange and yellow colour gemstones enhance your skin glow, beauty and appearance. Ruby, garnet, coral, chalcedony, amber and hessonite are good stones for you. Yellow gemstones such as citrine, yellow sapphire are well adapted to warm undertone. Moreover, cosmic gems that add more colour and credence to your skin tone could be selected from amongst golden topaz, golden pearl, champagne coloured stone and fire opals.

Gems & metals generate streams of sensation and particular tingling. Proper selection of gem & jewellery is vital in receiving the energy cosmics of these to be transferred into your warm skin tone.

Jewellery Matching: Skin Colour or Skin Tone

Before buying gem & jewellery, you have to decide whether you are going to match your exterior skin colour or interior skin tone. Majority of ladies look at their skin colour as a criterion to buy expensive items that eventually fail to bring out the best in them in terms of beauty and appearance. A good piece of advice is to look into both as dovetailed in this blog post.

Skin Colour: It is also known as overtone, surface tone, actual colour or exterior colour and denotes to the overall appearance of skin. The skin colour is determined by several substances most important amongst these is Melanin. Varying from dark to white human pigmentation gives a range of colours including dark, light, medium, tan, black, brown, white and yellow skin colours. There are several factors influencing the evolution of colour of skin. Geography, climate, environment and nature are chief amongst these factors. Skin colour undergoes changes over a period of life in a single generation, if the factors mentioned above are altered.

Skin Tone: It is also known as undertone, under-laying colour, or interior colour and denotes to the glow of skin. This skin tone personalizes the skin colour and projects an individual look. There are three types of undertone: warm undertone flashing yellow or golden colour and cool undertone signalling pink and blue colours. Neutral undertone has mixture of warm and cool colours. Undertone in generally subject to genetics and ethnicity and rarely changes. Perhaps, it might undergo slight change after few generations.

Selecting jewellery: While skin colour is useful in giving you general directions in buying gem & jewellery it is the skin tone that can accentuate your beauty and elegance in a big way. For example, if you have warm undertone, then buy gems & metals that are of warm colours. Gold is the primary warm metal. When the skin tone is matched properly it brings out best of not only the skin tone but the skin colour as well. You generate bright and polished look. More than that your cosmics start working positively and you appear so alluring to become overnight a darling.

Understanding Colour Dynamics of Gemstones

Cosmic gems come in a variety of colours. In order to understand the dynamics of colour in gemstones you must distinguish several terms used in the gem & jewellery market place. Here is a primer on the different terms used in describing colour of cosmic gems.

1. Colour: Refers generally to the wavelength comparison of the sunlight. There are three primary colours: red, yellow and blue. Secondary colours are orange, green and purple. Tertiary colours are: yellow-orange, red-orange, red-purple, blue-purple, blue-green, yellow-green.

2. Hue: A quality of colour that modifies the basic colour visible to the naked eye by another. Pea-cock hue is made of dominant green colour with associated blue colour

3. Tone: A quality of colour with reference to the degree of absorption of light. It can range from light to dark. The gradations of tone are: very dark, dark, medium, light and very light

4. Shade: A gradation or variety of colour in reference to the degree of darkness

5. Tint: A gradation or variety of colour in reference to the degree of lightness

6. Intensity: The degree of purity of colour. Gem & jewellery industry uses alternate terms such as strength, saturation, purity and Chroma in place of intensity. The gradations of intensity are: strong, medium, fair and weak. A gemstone that has strong intensity reflects a pure colour without any brown/grey hues.

Red, Rose and Pink Gold Jewellery

In gem & jewellery market, red rose and pink gold articles are paraded as unique products in terms of their tone of colour ranging from lightness to darkness. But critics dismiss this as a marketing ploy and declare all these jewellery articles mean one and the same thing. Yet on investigation we find that there are in fact differences between red, rose and pink gold jewellery as shown in this blog post.

Red Gold Jewellery: You are aware red is one of the three primary colours, others being yellow and blue. To fabricate red gold piece of 18 K you have to use gold 75% and copper 25% with zinc as trace element. Reflecting hard and deep overtone, red gold has fabulous cosmics in projecting high degree of masculine quality. Red gold grants you physical strength, mental power, dedication, focus and heightened resonance.

Rose Gold Jewellery: Rose colour perks half way between red and magenta as per the colour wheel. Rose gold 18 K jewellery is made by using an alloy of 75% gold 22.25% copper and 2.75% silver with trace element. Rose gold snugs well between white and yellow gold articles. For example, rings, bangles and bracelets made in tricolour are considered more fashionable in elitist circles. In contrast to red gold, rose gold minimizes the warmth of red colour and provides a softer overtone that in turn gives the wearer a sense of elation, calmness, togetherness not to forget a tinge of fad or to use the mild word a kind of overwhelming fashion.

Pink Gold Jewellery: Combining two vital qualities of both red and rose gold, pink gold article projects a harder look yet radiating softer shine. What is more, it gives an antique look as the jewellery starts aging, a process whose pace is quickened due to its copper content. Mostly, due to copper’s inherent tarnishing effect pink gold gives a fabulous antique appeal making the jewellery piece more pricier. An 18 K pink gold article is fabricated using gold 75%, Copper 20 % and Silver 5%. The chief plus point of pink gold is that it can easily bridge two colour combination such as yellow and white or yellow and red. Most importantly, pink gold can be worn as unisex jewellery. Equally fashionable as in the case of rose gold, pink gold goes one step forward by granting you high positive cosmics. It raises your level of consciousness and for an active and busy person it is a must wear item.

Gems & metals are storehouses of vibration, more so in the case of red, rose and pink gold jewellery. Selecting the right tone of colour requires understanding your needs and personality.

Benefits of Titanium jewellery

Significant benefits arise when you don one or more Titanium jewellery pieces. Health, cosmics, user-friendliness are key advantages. On the down side you have few drawbacks. But, overall titanium jewellery proves to be more valuable as this blog post explains.

Advantages

Health is the key plus of Titanium. As hypoallergenic metal Titanium is a store of magnetic energy fields, stimulating flow of oxygen into blood stream thereby flushing out toxicity and up building the body’s energy in healing wounds and fractures. Moreover, stimulation of nerves connected to the wound is carried out by corralling iron into blood cells. As a result oxygenated blood flow assists in quick healing of wounds and injuries that recur repeatedly; those who are engaged in sports and physical work stand to receive much of this bonanza.

Cosmics is the next plus point where Titanium acts in channelling vital energy and stamina into your body and mind. Mere touch of Titanium gives you feeling of strength and elation. Wearing Titanium jewellery in different parts of body enhances balancing yourself, your central nervous system and your zing.

Next in line is the user-friendliness of Titanium jewellery. Strong and resistant to scratch, tarnish and stress, this metal is low at maintenance cost. You can just clean with soapy water and dry it with a soft cloth. As a robust metal, Titanium can last for generations. Technically, Titanium can be blackened with a proprietary process developed by Spectore Corporation under the patent name “ Black-Ti” which is trademarked as such. Anodizing in fabulous colours is yet another feature available for gem & jewellery industry. Exotic hues of blue, yellow, violet , green , pink and others are noticed in the market place. Types of wear includes rings & bands, earrings, bangles & bracelets, chains & pendants and necklaces.

Downside

Titanium jewellery is quite expensive due to specialized process applied in fabricating. Premium prices are charged for anodized pieces. Black Titanium rings are certainly out of reach for many of you because of high price quotes. As Titanium cannot be soldered or annealed, exquisite designs are not possible while making pendants and necklaces. Even in the case of rings & bands it must be mentioned that once made these cannot be re-sized or re-soldered. A heavy negative is that in emergency these rings cannot be cut-off.

Against the backdrop of these drawbacks one should not lose heart in wearing Titanium jewellery. The pluses in health, cosmics and not to forget technical feasibility overweigh all these snags. Surely, gems & metals have vibrations, resonation, sensation and electromagnetic pulse. Predictably, when the turn comes to Titanium jewellery the sense of wellbeing is simply doubled.

Stay tuned!
