How Magickal Pearls are Acquired Part 1

We are often inquired how mustika or magickal pearls are extracted by shamans from Nature’s realm or how some people are fortunate enough to be gifted by Her. It certainly is appropriate that collectors and those interested in the subject of animal/plant stones acquire more information in this regard. Those who are misinformed or are not properly educated on the processes of pearl-acquisition by shamans often mistakenly believe that animals fall prey to hunters of these pearls and are killed indiscriminately without compassion; generally speaking, this is not the case here in Indonesia as wanton killing is a waste of time and resources even for shamans and would put them on Nature’s black-list and cause them to lose their raison d’être. It is important to stress that one would hardly find animal-pearls through such killing.. Shamans are careful in maintaining a good relationship with Nature and Her forces as it is through working with Her rather than against Her that the magickal pearls are acquired. It would, therefore, probably be proper if we were to offer some enlightenment and remove the concerns that some individuals might harbour in their minds.

A Brief History Of Cubic Zirconia

As a general rule of thumb, gemstones can be classified into three categories; natural, synthetic and simulant. Obviously, natural gems are mined and cut from minerals. For example, diamonds come from the mineral carbon. Organic materials such as pearls, coral and ivory are also considered natural gemstones.

Synthetic gemstones are manmade but for the most part are created to give the gem the same appearance and chemical properties of their natural counterparts. Some examples of synthetic stones that are commercially produced are alexandrite, emerald, garnet, quartz, and many more. There are even some synthetic stones produced which do not have a natural partner.

A simulant gem is one that is grown in a laboratory and may look a lot like a natural stone but it will have different chemical and physical properties. Cubic zirconia is one example of a simulant gemstone, which was first grown in a lab in 1976, and is now commonly used as a fabulous diamond substitute in much of today’s jewelry designs.
