COPPER
As a colour and a metal, copper represents wealth. In the metal form, copper has high electrical and thermal conductivity. It moves and enhances energy and amplifies thoughts and vibrational frequencies. To connect with higher dimensions and to increase psychic abilities, copper is a powerful tool.
In ancient cultures, copper was regarded as a source of healing. We now know that copper is the third most abundant trace mineral in our bodies and is required for various physiological functions.
Copper is known as the “love metal” as it helps us to open up to the energy of love. When your relationship or love life is ailing, copper zeros in and helps you find the best solution.
Copper can disperse negative energies in any room and helps to attract positive energy. Negative energy can be absorbed by copper therefore it needs to be charged regularly to keep it vibrant.
To cleanse copper jewelry, put it in a solution of warm water, lemon juice and salt. Leave it for a few minutes and rinse thoroughly with water. Ketchup and a soft bristle toothbrush can be used to remove tarnish on delicate pieces.
