For gemstone rings or pendants to can transmit cosmic planetary rays that may enhance physical, emotional, or spiritual health or attract positive influences toward a person, they must first be natural. This means they are created through tectonic pressure within the earth over time periods up to millions of years. Synthetic gems are created in a laboratory within a matter of days to weeks and do not have the capability to absorb, reflect or transmit cosmic radiation. They are not effective as ancient gems or healing stones whatsoever.
Gems also transmit cosmic colors that are in turn absorbed by the chakra centers in the ethereal body and therefore they must be of good quality in clarity. Otherwise there may be some disturbance in the transmission of these rays that would alter the effect and sometimes even create an undesirable effect. Therefore, we choose gems that are from “eye-clean”, meaning a minimum of inclusions within the stone, to flawless, meaning no imperfections are visible to the eye at all. An expert planetary gemologist knows what types of inclusions are permissible in a gemstone and which alter the cosmic radiation emanating from the gemstone.
The more flawless a gem, and the greater saturation of color throughout, the greater its value. This amounts to the rarity and world supply of any given gemstone. Gems must not be heat-treated to enhance color or clarity, nor irradiated or treated in any way to improve their appearance. It is a fact that 98% of all sapphires and rubies are heat-treated, as well as certain other stones, and many other stones are treated in some way, such as irradiation, to improve their appearance. In some cases heat-treated gems, such as rubies or blue sapphires, may still be very expensive as in the jewelry trade it is accepted and does not reduce the value.
