Turquoise is an ancient gemstone associated for centuries with love, wisdom, and purification. Derived its name from the ‘Turkish soldiers’ that carried it as an amulet while setting off for war, turquoise has been associated with a sign of friendship for ages. It is believed that turquoise warns its owner of impending danger and illnesses by changing colors and holds good only when gifted by a true friend. Used then for its protective properties, now its healing properties are being recognized worldwide

Important energy balancing properties

Healing Properties

Chakras or points are the energy centers in the body. Each chakra displays a certain power with a level of consciousness. Balancing the chakras is important for allowing free flow of energy throughout the body, precisely which purpose is achieved by turquoise. Of the 7 Chakras, the 5th chakra or the Throat Chakra helps communicate your thoughts and feelings without any inhibitions. The 4th or Heart Chakra is associated with our emotions like love, joy, and compassion.

Blockage of these 2 chakras results in various illnesses like sore throat, mouth ulcers, high blood pressure, and other respiratory and breathing difficulties with a general feeling of depression and negativity. Turquoise has powerful healing properties used for effective healing of the chakras. Wearing turquoise induces calmness with stabilizing mood swings and, in general, keeping the mind in a positive state.

Turquoise is said to have analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and detoxifying effects. Wearing a turquoise bracelet of blue turquoise can help with rheumatism and gout. It purifies the lungs and soothes the throat. Stomach problems, acidity, and even viral infections are benefitted from turquoise use. Turquoise even plays a role in the immune system and heals the body with aiding in tissue regeneration.

Being deeply connected to the breath helps clear the lungs and sorts out issues with the bronchial system. It even aids in relieving panic attacks and stabilizes the mind to tranquillity. Being a healer of the throat chakra, with the physical healing properties it also helps in communication. People with problematic throat chakra have problems in expressing themselves and subsequently being heard and valued. Turquoise

In Chinese Feng Shui, turquoise is highly regarded as a lucky charm. Be it blue or green, Feng Shui regards every shade of turquoise as an attraction for wealth, harmony, and positive energy. Be it in communication or for insomnia; turquoise has a cure for all. Wear a turquoise bracelet while going out for a busy day. It will ensure that you speak your mind with courage and are surrounded by positive vibes throughout. Keep it under the pillow at night while sleeping. It will ease your worries and lead you to a peaceful night’s sleep.

In Combination with Other Gemstones

Whether you wear turquoise in your throat or wear it in your wrists, either way, it works on your body through the throat and pulse vibrations. Its healing vibes increase in magnitude when placed. While a talisman and healer through and through, turquoise can even be combined with other gemstones to add to its powers. Lapis lazuli is one such stone. Lapis and turquoise bracelets combined in the form of a seed bracelet not only protect the wearer but only bestow truth and wisdom over him.

Turquoise and Obsidian are other such combinations. Obsidian, with its dark hues, intertwines with the vibrant blues of turquoise and creates a strong barrier of protection, and the two different colored stones complement each other very well. Other combinations working well with Turquoise are Labradorite and Malachite. Not only do they look great together, but their energies also match perfectly for the wearer’s wellbeing

It is called turquoise, but actually, it’s not

While turquoise is mined extensively from mines of America and Afghanistan, countries like China and Russia have been producing synthetic turquoise for a long time. This looks like turquoise but does not have any healing or protective properties. Howlite and Magnesite are some other stones that share the matrix of turquoise and thus are passed off as light turquoise. Variscite shares even the characteristic green color of the gemstone. Nevertheless, it is not turquoise, and care should be taken of authenticity before finalizing the purchase.

Conclusion

Turquoise, for a reason, was compared by the Native Americans to the sea. It provides wisdom to the wearer of it and sends waves of energy and protective vibes around them. Not only that, it cleanses the mind of negativity and makes room for good thoughts in it. Keeping a turquoise is like making a strong and lasting friendship for life, provided you take care of it. In this regard, if you want to buy an authentic turquoise stretch bracelet only, consider New Mexico Gems as your ideal bet.
