Natural Organic Red Coral

Precious coral is captivating gemstone – with its smooth surface and robust color, the gemstone is absolute imagery of vitality and symbolizes youthful vigor.

One has to be still more careful if the objective is planetary gem therapy. So how does one identify a precious coral? Here is a quick guide to a foolproof purchase –

– Nothing can replace lab certification. A good vendor will give you a certified gem that lists the verified properties of the specimen.

– Precious red coral measures 3.5 on Moh’s scale and has a specific gravity of 2.65- 2.68 which will be clearly stated on the certificate helping in identification. Precious red coral is an opaque gemstone, it has a refractive index of 1.48.

Available Easily Taiwan plastic coral – How do you distinguish?- Bamboo coral, which is also a coral found growing in the sea, but not precious coral is dyed and palmed off to unsuspecting buyers. Make sure you ask the right questions and do a minimum homework before making a valuable purchase.

Bamboo Coral- Precious red coral will display a wood grain texture under magnification, which may not show in case of resin filled, wax treated coral, as it would give a texture too good to be true.

A variety of techniques can be use to determine if the color of a piece of coral is dyed or is a fake. However, these techniques like acetone exposure or heating will destroy the specimen being tested! A lab report and a trusted source always hold the key to a good buy.

Comments	The fifth day of the navratri is one that celebrates Goddess Durga in the form of Mother Skandmata, her name literally meaning ‘mother of Skanda’. Skanda is another name of Shiva and Parvati’s son Kartikeya, who leads the armies.

Singashangata Nityam PadmashritKardwaya !
Shubhdaastu Sada Devi SkandMata Yashashwini !!

Skandmata is depicted as one with softness and vatsalya ( mother’s love for her child) radiating from her face. She has a lion as her mount. She has four hands – she carries lotus flowers in two, holds Kartikeya in her lap with one and blesses the devotees with the other.

Vishuddha Chakra

On this day, the meditation is focussed on the Vishuddha chakra or the throat chakra. The throat chakra is the centre of the maha karan sharir or the para causal body/ sheath. It is connected to the akash tattva or ether. The Vishuddha chakra is believed to be the centre of communication and creativity and that the blueprint of destiny lies hidden here. Â It is represented by a 16 petalled lotus. The individual with a healthy vibrating Vishuddha chakra is able to handle one’s worldly interactions adeptly without falling into the trap of illusions and attachment.

Featured today is an exceptional talisman that is in consonance with the energies of Mother Skandmata– a natural and organic Italian red coral necklace talisman. The natural red coral mala has 53+1 round beads totalling to a weight of 38.6 carats, of similar dimensions strung together. The coral beads have the coveted Mediterranean ox blood color. The coral beads are interspersed by floral beads cast in sterling silver.

Natural Organic Red Coral bead necklace of 38.6 carats Gemstoneuniverse

With jyotish quality red coral becoming scarce, this talisman took lots of time and search effort to put together. It is a customized talisman that has been made to order for the patron upon request and specifications. The number of beads have been especially kept so as they add up to 9 representing the planetary energy of Mars!

Natural red coral or moonga stone is the gem of planet Mars/ Mangal/ Kujan. Red Coral can be worn by individuals with Mesh lagna or Vrishchika lagna. In other words, it can be worn by individuals with Aries or Scorpio ascendant in the natal chart.

Red coral is an organic gemstone, which is actually the skeletal structure created by the secretion of calcium carbonate by the Coral polyps. Precious coral is increasingly hard to procure as indiscriminate harvesting of coral has endangered the existence of these reef builders. To appreciate how valuable a coral is and how difficult replenishing by nature is, it is vital to know that corals require a very specific habitat to thrive. Any distortion in the required conditions or imbalance in the typical ecosystem threatens their existence. Even in the optimum conditions, the coral grows quarter of an inch annually!

A well-placed Mars in an individuals birth chart can help one in achieveing the most difficult of feats in life. A talisman made of natural and organic red coral can help harness the energies of this planet.

Natural Red coral has been a favourite with the ancients, be it any civilization, for adornment as well as for healing and protective amulets. The knowledge of metaphysical properties of red coral can be traced quite far back in time. This might just give a clue as to why many Renaissance paintings have cherubs as infants who wear necklaces made of beads and a sprig of coral.

In Christian symbolism, the coral represented the blood of Christ, His passion and resurrection, and therefore its dual nature, human and divine. It is often found nestled in reliquaries and paintings of religious subjects that date back to five or six centuries.

The Romans were the first to practice the technique of engraving, a rather tedious task. They focused more on making coral olives and grains, called “paternoster” used for the production of rosaries.

If you are a natural Red Coral aficionado, there is a treasure house â€“ a real treat that awaits you at the Conte Agostino Pepoli Regional Museum, in Italy where Red art of Trapani’s “mastri curaddari” is celebrated. The creators of this art remained largely anonymous, but were adept in their skill as they brought out the best in coral by using alabaster, shells and mother of pearl. The works of Coral include nativity scenes, cultural artifacts and a crucifix by Brother Matthew (Matteo) Trapani Bavera carved from a single block of coral.
