Silver Properties
Silver is a very resistant mineral and can be found pure, but it’s also usually mixed with gold, antimony, arsenic and other metals in order to make it malleable.
Its optical reflective quality is the highest in comparison with any other metal, which makes it very useful for solar energy and also in making mirrors.
In addition to being receptive and a good conductor of heat and electricity, silver has a markedly pleasing resonance. This resonance is exemplified in the lives of those who expand parental love to embrace some larger section of the human race.
These beneficent individuals respond to and vibrate in unison with pulsations emanating from the spiritual plane.
Silver Symbolism
Silver whose primary value is related to moral purity, unworthiness and holiness. These values have also contributed to the properties of silver to have extraordinary whiteness and the ability to prevent decomposition and decay processes. Probably because of this last trait, silver has always been attributed magical properties, and the power to deflect evil forces.
The first and basic value of silver is that we perceive it as a light, and we can call it the “absolute metaphor of light”. This symbolism is not related solely to Christianity, but it can also be found in ancient Greeks and Old Slavic cultures, for which “silver is a fire that shines in the night”.
Besides, the light in Christianity is the symbol of the divine: “… that God is light, and there is no darkness in him.” (I John 1:1). Accordingly, silver as an “absolute metaphor of light” represents the “absolute metaphor of God,” and it can be said that light is not the essence of God, but its energy.
Silver is known to carry the energies of the moon, especially during new moons and full moons. As Silver is reflective, the moon reflects light coming from the sun, and it does the same for whoever wears it.
Silver will reflect negativity away from you, which makes it a stone of magical protection and security.
