Wonderful, Magickal, Mustika-pearls Part 2

Some of the characteristics and virtues of mustika-pearls are intensely curious and interesting. Below we present just a few of these :

The pearl from the dugong (called “Ikan-duyung” in Indonesian) for instance, floats in salt water, but sinks in fresh water; this and the crystallized pearl from its tear are good for love-spells. The otter-pearl attracts lots of fishes during fishing trips; the fossilized egg of a crocodile increases one’s sexual prowess; the dew-pearl beautifies one’s aura–the smaller sizes of these pearls when moisten with one’s finger, coheres to it as it is dragged across a smooth surface; the golden carp and bamboo (symbols of wealth, business advantage, and longevity in Chinese lore) -pearls attracts lots of luck and increases prosperity; the centipede pearl helps one to choose the right numbers during gambling; the owl-pearl helps to improve one’s psychic senses; the Galih Kelor seed-pearl wards-off negative energies in the form of black magick and psychic attack; the boar-pearl makes one invulnerable to sharp weapons. Almost all of the pearls have unusual powers and virtues. If one finds an object embedded in a pearl it usually has extra virtues. Generally speaking, the higher nature, power, abilities, virtues of animals/plants are to be found in the pearls. Mustika-pearls, unlike ordinary gem stones and crystals, possesses the combined spiritual blueprints, matrixes and forces of the spirit-animal-mineral or the spirit-plant-mineral kingdoms.

The real pearl and fake pearl

Real Pearls vs Fake Pearls 
Both real pearls and fake pearls can be beautiful, but sometimes it’s important to know which type you have. If you are buying pearls, you may be able to identify fake pearls by their name: fake, simulated, faux, glass, plastic, synthetic, resin, artificial, manmade. There are several different types of genuine pearls. There are natural pearls and cultured pearls. Real pearls may come from fresh water (rivers, lakes, ponds) or saltwater (sea or saltmarsh) and from a variety of mollusks. To confuse matters, there are pearls which are partly natural and partly manmade. There are shell pearls and genuine pearls which have had treatments applied to them, such as coatings or faceting.
