The Chakras – An Introduction
Liz McCaughey asked:
This new world which is now visible is not just the world of the astral or emotional plane, with its many denizens of elementals, ETs and thought forms, but the world of the chakras. And the chakras reveal, to the deepest level, the truth of the person they are the extension of – thus showing the faculties that have developed within that person through many life-times and, most importantly, the present incarnation.
Instead of looking at a person through only the physical eyes and seeing the mere physical attributes of that being, the newly developed man sees things that have previously been hidden from him or her. Emotions expressed as colour, health as seen through colour and the incessant movement of the chakras clearly indicate the spiritual development of the human.
This inner sight that enables a person to see the chakras is not imaginary nor restricted to certain people, it is available to every human as we already have the faculty to do this. We just need to develop the skill and one of the ways to attain this is through awareness. The more you can learn theoretically about these ancient wheels of light, the more you can begin to imagine what they look like. And, if you can imagine what they look like, then you can start to see their true essence.
Of course, there are many people in this world who deny the existence of such things as chakras and auras or even that a human has an energy body. However, just because something is not in plain sight does not necessarily mean that it doesn’t exist – just think of the billions of bacteria that inhabit your skin! It behoves us to keep an open mind and to look more closely and deeply into the world that we inhabit.

Authenticating Of Jewelry
Victor Epand asked:
You see, to give money value to an item of jewelry is 90% or more of the work needed for an appraisal. The printed part is easy and often done with forms from a computer, with values from the previous inspection and evaluation typed in. If you want a value, this will mean appraisal. No store able to accurately valuate jewelry is going to guess and risk their reputation on a guess. A customer may leave the store with a “guess” and tell other that “the store” said the item was worth so much money. See what I am getting at?
This is a suggested approach which might help. Many jewelry stores will check the karat of metals for a reasonable fee. This is not an appraisal and no statement of value comes with it. I do not know of those who will grade diamonds and gemstones unless it is an appraisal since the grading is the largest part of appraisal work!
Still, it might be worth your time to call a few jewelers and simply ask if they will check the metal and how much is the fee. Ask if they will determine the weight, clarity and color of the stones, with no written appraisal. Tell them you do not want a dollar value, only the information mentioned. Some will be surprised to hear this question. Ask if they will do that and if the service will cost less than regular appraisal services. You might also explain the reasons, for the family essentially.
I suspect they will only provide appraisal services for the stones but should provide inexpensive service in telling the karats of metal items. The only way to know is to call and ask.
Have you examined the jewelry for stamps or marks showing karat? If the jewelry is from the Middle East then the marks will be unknown to most jewelers in the USA and the jewelry should be tested. If from European countries, most show karats by number marks. British jewelry uses symbols in many cases and numbers on more recent items with the added symbols from the regional assay offices.
10k gold is marked as shown or with the number 417. 14k is also shown as 585 18k is also shown as 700
Heavy electroplate, meaning the metal is not gold but has a heavy gold cladding contains the letters HGE.
Gold Filled, meaning there is a bonded layer of gold on a base (not precious) metal is marked in various numbers but always with a fraction and a GF. For instance, if the layer of gold is 12karat and is 1/12 by weight of the total piece, the mark is 1/12, 12k GF.
Sterling silver is marked “sterling” or 925, showing the silver content in the item.
Marks are often on clasps of bracelets and chains. On rings, the marks are on the inside. Sometimes magnification is needed to read the marks. If the jewelry has been worn a long, long time or a ring resized, the mark may be gone.
BUW, a greenish discoloration on a chain or on a ring generally means the ring is NOT gold. Copper and brass corrode with a green color. Gold will darken but does not show any green color. The metal testing should be inexpensive. Stone grading might require an appraisal charge; that is up to the jeweler.

Spiritual Wifery
Robert Baird asked:
NIEBAUR, MORMONS AND ‘SPIRITUAL WIFERY’:
One of the most important people that the esoteric societies used to control the likes of Hitler, Napoleon, Nixon and others is the personal physician. In this context we find Napoleon was later poisoned by his physician after one from Ireland refused to do what he was directed to do and we find the egis of something even more far-reaching. The religions of this world are all tools of the elite and their social engineers as Francis Fukayama proudly proclaims in his late 20th Century book The End of History and The Last Man. He does not tell us who created these religions or what their secret rituals are; if he even knows. The primary purpose of this book is to explore the esoterics of Josephine and Napoleon with a view to garnering more insight into who managed them and how it was done. With that in mind we look to a Kabalist who institutionalized the less-than-egalitarian treatment of women by Joseph Smith and the Mormons. This man’s father was the physician of Napoleon and his father wanted him to be a rabbi so I am sure his father knew the Kaballah to some extent too.
“The Council of Fifty in Nauvoo manifest a distinctly Masonic character, and Masonic ceremonial elements were incorporated in the council’s meetings. A similar tenor emerged in Strang’s Order of the Illuminati. It was only a few months after the claimed revelation commissioning him to organize the “Illuminati” at Nauvoo that Bennett initiated efforts to form the Masonic lodge. But Mormon historians have yet to specifically explored implications of another fact: both the name given by Bennett for the organization, “Order of the Illuminati,” and the political concept embodied by the organization had a clear Masonic heritage. The parallel is so close that one wonders whether Bennett might have brought this and other more esoteric Masonic concepts with him into Nauvoo. At about this same time the practice of “Spiritual wifery” or plural marriage was also introduced. Bennett made several exaggerated claims in his later expos

Designer Wire Wrapped Jewelry
Robert Grazian asked:
Nothing says it better than jewelry. Wire wrapped jewelry is an unusual technique whereby the artisans intricately wrap the gemstones with a help of the wire. The wire needs to be of strong and high quality to hold the gemstone. The artisans create the designs by twisting and turning the wires and thereby creating unique and exclusive designs.
Rings, pendants, necklaces, bracelets, earrings can be created using this technique. The minimal detailing given to such jewelry makes it look incredible. The designer designs the jewelry in such a way that the designs blend with the gemstones. Wire wrapping techniques work well and are extremely popular since irregular and uncommon shapes can be given making it look matchless. The stones are set in such jewelry without any adhesive or machine.
Designer wire wrapped jewelry gives you the freedom to explore contemporary designs in jewelry to a match your wardrobe. The type of wire used varies from artist to artist since everyone has their own preferences. Copper coated wires which are available in a variety of colors and thickness are extensively used in making fashion jewelry. Such jewelry is sold at affordable prices. Using wires made from precious metal like gold and silver add sheen and luster to the final product.
Silver is widely used in making wire wrapped jewelry because it is affordably priced and attractive. Teaming simple silhouettes with statement-making jewelry pieces make maximum impact. Precious colored stones wrapped around in beautifully woven wires will go with any skin tone beautifully.
Gold plated wire must however be avoided since its coating wears off easily revealing the base of the metal. Thus making it look damaged.
Wire wrapped jewelry designers are more than happy to take individual orders since they are glad to put their skill and ability to test.
Designer wire wrapped jewelry give you a complete look and do the talking. The elegance of such jewelry can sway any woman. What satisfies the designers of wire wrapped jewelry is achieving the desired color result. Designer wire wrapped jewelry allows the designer and artisans to express their creativity and achieve precisely the result that they wanted. The glamour and sophistication that accompanies every piece of jewelry gives a sense of satisfaction to the designers when he sees the smile on the clients face.
Wire wrapped jewelry makes you stand out from the crowd. The gemstones color with precious metal embellishment will spruce up your style value and bring make you look elegant.
