Main properties:<\/strong> intuition, imagination, protection, relaxation, wealth, psychic sensitivity<\/p>\n Pearls are not minerals, like semi-precious gemstones, but they form inside of a shell when the mollusk living in it covers the irritant with calcium carbonate (the same substance from which the shell of the mollusk consists of) in self-defense, creating the mother of pearl that will cover the particle in many layers. In the duration of about ten years, it will become a pearl.<\/p>\n Cultured and natural pearls can be distinguished from the copies in one simple test. Take a pearl and rub it (gently!) against the edge of a tooth. Because of the natural texture of the mother of pearl, cultured and natural pearls feel slightly rough, like thin-gritted sandpaper. Imitations, however, feel as smooth as glass, because their surface has been carved or painted onto an even bead.<\/p>\n Even though pearls are not minerals, they still have their own healing properties. Pearl encourages relaxation as it lessens tensions and stress. Enhances intuition, psychic sensitivity, and imagination. By holding a pearl in your hand, you can attract wealth, protect yourself from negative influence, and transform negative energy into positive.
