There are eighteen different gems in Pokemon, as they were incorporated to the eighteen different types. Also, these gems have corresponding colors with them. Orange for fire gem, blue for water gem, yellow for electric gem, green for grass gem, light blue for ice gem, brown for fighting gem, lavender for poison gem, gold for ground gem, silver for flying gem, pink for psychic gem, light green for bug gem, light brown for rock gem, dark purple for ghost gem, a mix of silver and red for dragon gem, charcoal for dark gem, grey for steel gem and peach for fairy gem. What do they mean?
Have you seen the new Pokemon Diancie?
According to Patti Wigington, gems possess magic because every stone had a connection to some aspect of human life. In her article entitled Magical Crystals and Gems, she discusses about the different properties and meanings of gems.
The article just enumerates the names of the gems and what they do. The article states that "There are literally hundreds of stones out there to choose from, but which ones you opt to use will depend on your intent."
If I were a girl I would totally dig this.
The orange gem, or called carnelian, is used to prevent impotency and fires up passion for fertility. It is used as a shield to prevent psychic attacks. The blue gem, or sapphire, is said to relieve respiratory problems. It is used in rituals such as prophecy and spirit guides. The yellow gem, or amber, has thought to aide memory loss. It is thought to have stress relieving and calming properties. The light blue gem, or turquoise brings upon wisdom, intuition and clarification, much like how ice is clear and how you see yourself in it. The brown gem is called the Tiger's eye and it enhances overall energy and general physical health, much like how fighting Pokemon are equipped with enhanced fighting skills.
The lavender gem is referred to as an amethyst and is believed to clear and cleanse sacred space. The gold gem or the agate is used to bring the truth. The silver gem is referred to as itself, meaning it has sensitivity and kindness. The pink refers to as quartz and it relieves us of pain and emotional disturbances. Light green would be peridot and it promotes abundance and prosperity. Light brown would be jasper, it relieves us of pain and cures us of debilitating diseases. The dark purple is the amethyst, and it aids us by reducing insomnia. The silver and red gem would be zircon, and it promotes beauty and elegance. The dark gem would be onyx and it promotes control over emotions. The grey gem is obsidian and it helps in pulling toxins downwards. The peach colored gem would be rose and it affects us by relating us to love and friendship.
But what do these things mean? Are gems really that specific to those kinds of things? Can gems really heal? An article talking about Crystal Healing was written by Kyle Hill and I think it was a good read.
The article tells us about an experiment that was given to test crystals on 80 volunteers, 40 crystals were given and were New Age genuine crystals, while the other half was plastic and fake. They were all made to believe that all were giving them spiritual energy and the effects were from magical vibrations, auras and frequencies.
""I'm definitely going to be protected by this piece of plastic around me!"
Dr. Christopher French was the one leading the study. He used control and blinding to make the volunteers believe that all of these were true and used the suggestion of experiencing the number of benefits into tinkering their minds to believing that these actually work. The volunteers were then asked to report sensations that they would feel when wearing the crystals.
He found no difference in the sensations reported by those holding a real crystal and a fake one. If the fake produces the same results as per the real one being used in the experiment, then there is no effect coming from the one being studied. People have also been primed prior to the experiment. They were altered into a mindset where they would anticipate an outcome. The conclusion was the expectation of the effect, and not the crystals, were the source of any reported effects.
"I wasted 500 dollars for this?"
He says that "The fact that the same effects were found with both genuine and fake crystals undermines any claims that crystals have the mysterious powers which they are claimed to have."
In conclusion, crystals are pseudoscience. Crystal sellers are just making these things sell for them to gain money. It is really disgusting and morally reprehensible that these crystals were supposed to cure your sickness with no scientific proof or plausibility. It is just trickery and it's all in your head.
