Silver and Gold

topic posted Sun, April 27, 2008 - 10:10 AM by 
I'm wondering about the Silver and the Gold in this tradtion. Wondering if Silver (being the metal of Diana) is better for the Aradian Witch to wear.....or if Gold has a purpose in wearing it (other than to look beautiful!). ;-)

    well Gold has been used as a symbol of the Sun
    so all cults based upon a Solar Deity have a strong association with Gold
    (Maya's Egyptian for instance ... do )

    it would seem therefore that a Lunar tradition must have a connection to Silver

    personally I wear Silver

    .t Gold however has healing properties as well ..so it is for other metals of course

      Yes, I have days when I feel more comfortable with gold and other days, with silver. I do noticed that Silver magnifies my receptivity. Sometimes that's difficult, especially when I am at work all day.

      I'm wondering if the Gold would be Lucifer's metal, as Silver is Diana's......hey, why not, eh?

      When I wear Gold, I feel quite "rich", whether I have much money or not. I recall hearing a Gypsy legend of wearing "golden earrings."

      I have a friend who is a Leo Sun who is allergic to Gold!

      I am reading about a kind of "red gold" that was special to the Taino/Arawak Indians in the Caribbean......it sounds lovely.

      Sometimes I like to wear Gold and Silver AT THE SAME TIME....isn't that weird??? ;-)

        no.... not weird I do it .....rarely .... but I do .. wear both metals that is

        interesting ....... Lucifer the Light- bringer .. hummm
        for some reasons I see him as Platinum ... a cooler kind of Gold
        this may be weird : I simply don't know from where the connection to Platinum came from ...!

          I like your intuition about Platinum! I've never really given it much thought before, and don't have any Platinum jewelry.

          Here's something I found from: shelleyheller.com/_wsn/page4.html

          I think they are speaking of INGESTING these metals, but I really don't believe in that....I believe it's too intense on the physical system. We ingest enough metals in our food and drink, I believe! But I don't see why these effects couldn't be generated (in a more gentle way) by wearing of the metals in contact with the skin or hair.......

          PLATINUM

          Platinum is helpful in relieving headaches, PMS, cold feet, circulatory problems, and conditions of over sensitivity. Platinum generates a general feeling of well being and longevity. Platinum, like gold, produces periods of deep sleep and vivid dreams in technicolor, but unlike gold, Platinum greatly increases energy levels, so one can alternate the two to fulfill your needs. For instance, if you are lacking energy take Platinum. If you have insomnia take Gold.


          GOLD

          Gold is a mystical platinum-group mineral. It has the highest frequency of the platinum-group elements. Researchers are just beginning to understand the role of angstrom-sized gold in nutrition. It seems to have a wide-range of properties, including: calming the nervous system, increasing lucid dreaming, balancing the endocrine and glandular system, protecting the DNA from free radicals, cancer, and viral damage, increasing the strength of the immune system, and improving intelligence.


          SILVER

          Silver destroys every virus known on contact. Destroys harmful fungus and bacteria while keeping healthy tissue and good bacteria intact. Protects the nervous system from viruses and bacteria. Much has been written, discovered, and experienced about colloidal silver being the world's most powerful antibiotic. Angstrom silver is a million times smaller than colloidal silver and thus is more effective without side effects (colloidal silver can get gummed up in the tissues and skin).
