Gemstones have colours and it is a fact that colour play an
important part in our lives. They affect our health, moods, our living style,
happiness, etc. The foremost need is to find out what colour suits a person
according to this his/her chart. And once that has been known, one can chose the
colour of his clothes, curtains, sofa, walls, etc.
It is generally experienced
in life that bright colours produce happiness and enthusiasm in a person while
dull colours cause negative effect and make him dull and morose. They suit only
serious - minded persons who are indifferent to luxuries of life and comforts of
living.
Colours react in different ways on different persons. Some particular colours
may cause tension to some but the same colour may give relief to the other
person. But some colours give pleasure and happiness or encouragement to almost
everybody. They enthuse gaiety, warmth, joy, love and affection, harmony and
encouragement to struggle in life and reach a place of comfort and luxury.
Each colour is associated symbolically with something. Take the example of
white colour. It stands for peace, purity, nobility and innocence. Black colour
denotes sympathy for the aggrieved. Yellow stands for warmth and light blue and
green for repose and peace. Red colour signifies vigour, energy, youthfulness
and dash.
Even in ancient times it was believed that colours have a close relationship
with human ailments and their curves. Today science and psychology acknowledge
that colour does affect our mental state. What more, more than fifty per cent of
the physical ailments find their roots in one's mental state. On the very basis
astrologers recommend various gem stones to cure ailments based on their
colours.
Colours are linked to our emotional, physical, mental and even spiritual
side. Specific reactions to different colours have an abstract power to
influence and govern our destiny as every colour gets a certain response from an
individual. To be successful in life, to acquire name and fame, power and
wealth, these colours have to be in tune with or in the same wavelength with the
nature of the individual.
Astrology tells us that the sun signs are divided into four categories -
fiery (fire), earthy (earth), Airy (air) and Watery (water). All of the four
signs have their own characteristics and they are influenced by the planets and
their movements in different manners. Their ill effect can be removed or
neutralised through proper use of astral method, one of them being the correct
use of colours and gems.
This practice of treatment of diseases is now universal. In the Capital
itself of this country there existed a very well-known hospital where patients of
even Cancer were being treated with the use of colour and light.
In modern times colour therapy is being widely used. Given below are a few
examples of its use :
There have been instances when premature children used to get afflicted with
jaundice. In such cases their blood had got to be replaced by a fresh one. The
latest therapy is to penetrate blue light into the body.
In the state-of-the-art operation theaters ultraviolet rays of the sun are
used to clean the air.
The colour therapy has proved quite useful in skin diseases. Blue and purple
colour of skin indicates lack of oxygen in blood or diseases of hearts or lung.
The yellow colour of the skin indicates lack of B12 vitamin.
Similarly, dark red skin shows the presence of too much carbon mono-oxide in the
body.
The famous scientists Samyon and Valentine Kirliyan have already proved that
there exists a universal energy force around us and that there is one more body
close to our physical body which can be seen with efforts. Our saints and seers
were very well aware of the existence of that body.
It was the Theosophical Society of India that attached greatest importance to
colours. According to the society that astral body is surrounded by a bright
cover which displays different colours. Those colours, if one can see them,
reveal the attributes of the physical body. |
