Dear Ed,
I find that people don’t really know how each metal works. Granddad used to always have me look at metals and describe them to him, so that I always notice them and be aware of them.
Metals are like the blood of the earth, he taught me, and not just this earth but other earths as well. That is why we have iron for example in meteorites like “Campo El Cielo”. They are universal carriers of energy and intention, very like water, but far more concentrated.
“Metals are the blood of the Earth, crystals are the hormones of the Earth.”
He told me this over and over.
Over the years I began to observe how metals work with crystals and how that affects the human energy field and so on. I want to share my observations so that people understand exactly what the deal is.
Gold
I’ve noticed Ed that there are two kinds of gold. The gold that is carrying energy. Its energy field is like a beehive filled with honey. And there’s the gold that is NOT carrying energy. Its energy field is like an empty beehive. Gold that is melted and reworked, doesn’t lose its energy even then.
I’ve noticed in my trips to ancient temples, that huge amounts of gold and precious stones are the means by which the deities energy field was kept there in that place. However, when the soul trapped in the idol leaves (an event completely out of anyone’s control), the energy leaves the gold and it is now empty.
“Empty” gold begins to start movement in all the bloodlines coming into the physical zone and those bodies connected to those. The gold by magnetism will try to pull from the bodies around the energy to fill up the hive.
This is emotional energy, sexual energy; actual vital life force. The fake humans simply do not have enough for both themselves and their gold.
Those bloodlines that don’t let their gold go to people who have the vital force to keep the gold, will become infertile and die out. I’ve seen this happening myself. I even saw it happening in as small a time as two years.
When I was living down south, there was this scandal locally. We lived near a building called a “Choultry”. This “choultry” building is rented out for weddings. Something like a big hall, several rooms for guests coming from other places to live in, bathrooms, a big kitchen, dining hall, and so on.
The owner of this choultry was in distress because no matter how much money he was bringing in, somehow or the other he was still teetering on the brink of insolvency. The local witch (and I’m not being demeaning, there are good ones and bad ones), told him that he has to sell his choultry.
Apparently it is common knowledge there that gold can “go bad”. People were arranging the marriages of their daughters to men, and then in the custom of dowry, giving the man their “bad” gold. Soon after the wedding, the bride would disappear and fearing social humiliation the bridegroom’s family would cover it up. Many times the bride would say she was in love with someone else, or something like that. A divorce would be got, but the bride’s family wouldn’t ask for the gold back. Instead they would use the fact that their gold was with that family, to make use of them in various ways, get whatever they could out of that family in other ways.
But basically they were off-loading their empty gold to another family, who would then start to be drained.
The choultry was where a lot of this gold and dowry transfer used to happen, and it was affecting the owner bad.
The news of this spread locally, and the choultry owner couldn’t sell the property. He converted the choultry to a warehouse.
What I’m saying is, gold is not neutral. It’s not lifeless. It is the carrier of vital energy. When we inherit gold from people who lived long and loved long, it will continue to carry that for us. But when we buy gold, we should buy it when we are settled in a stable emotional and sexual life. Because the 99% of gold we buy is there for sale, because it is empty. The people who deal in gold maintain an emotional distance from it because if they didn’t they’d fall ill and their bloodline would end. Many of them will display gold without even actually touching the gold.
If you are instinctively attracted to gold it’s because you have some energy in you that wants to sit in something, be established long term in your bloodline; OR you are attracted to it, because it’s empty and its magnetism as it attempts to get filled, will turn your life inside out and put you on a path of drastic change.
But this is if you’re instinctively spiritually attracted to gold; not for if you want to buy gold as part of social pressure to show off that you’re rich.
I’ve seen people destroyed financially by buying gold just for social reasons. I did it myself. I was living in a place up north India where people were treating me bad because I’m not very fair skinned. I got fed up of being treated bad in shops, being mistaken for the servant and so on. I decided to get a big fat gold chain to make everyone behave.
Two years later my life was entirely inside out and I had to, after selling the gold chain which left me as empty as it came; because there had been no emotional connection the whole time; start all over again financially and in every way. It was a part of my destiny and I had actually invoked the destruction of my life. So it all worked for my good. But I’m just telling you.
As my friend, B, says, “Everything in the universe is born of love, wants love, operates to its potential only in the atmosphere of love.”
Gold is especially sensitive to emotional energy, as it holds it for eternity if needed.
If you’re in a good position in life where you can charge your gold, or you have inherited gold, that’s just going to carry you and your bloodline on, a long, long time.
Silver
Silver is the most “flowing” of the metals. Silver causes the energy field to be flexible, responsive, sensitive, but also resilient. It has this balance. It helps people hold the emotion just long enough to deal with it.
I have very rarely seen silver holding energy like gold, but I have seen silver holding MEMORY more than gold or any other metal.
Silver is a portal to soul memory. I have experienced this so many times. It absorbs the emotional experience of the soul it is in contact with, and it becomes a portal to soul memory. I believe that silver is a huge support to memory of all kinds, both soul and actual mental memory.
You don’t need a lot of it, but you do need to be a soul, with soul purpose, to “activate” silver.
Silver has helped me a lot to hold my passion and express it calmly and in the right way, instead of bursting and short circuiting.
If there’s a metal that can regulate the flow of the whole energy field over time, keep the body balanced, keep the soul calm; it’s silver.
It’s especially helpful for women and men who are passionate and have the tendency to be explosive.
I now wear a thin silver bangle permanently on my left wrist. It’s gotten bent out of shape over the years but I don’t ever remove it. I bathe with it on and it’s always on, no matter what else is. It has etchings of the symbol of the Yoni, the Great Mother. I don’t need to say what that means to me.
Copper
Copper is a breakthrough artist. It conducts energy so well, that often the speed of the conduction results in amplification.
Any time there’s static energy, copper will break it. You literally cannot have static energy where there is a sufficient presence of copper in the field.
Copper energizes all the movement in the body and that’s why it helps people with conditions like arthritis which is a build-up of blocked energy.
Anytime you feel sluggish, clogged up, not able to move forward in life, copper can help. The traditional use of copper as cooking vessels and water tumblers is usually enough to keep a person energetically fresh.
Too much of copper though is not recommended when you are recovering from trauma or some such circumstance where you’ve been drained and you’re trying to rebuild yourself.
If you are learning to hold your energy in, and use your energy to heal your own self; don’t wear copper. Just keep it around.
If you’re in a stuck situation, wear copper till you have a breakthrough. Then say thanks and keep it around but not ON you all the time.
It’s very powerful, you need to use it sparingly.
There are old houses with copper pipes and that’s amazing because the whole house is always buzzing with fresh energy, never going static.
Brass
I’ve found brass inspiring tenacity and stubbornness, and to my surprise, drastically increases clairaudience or the hearing equivalent of clairvoyance which is spiritual vision.
Every time I try to wear brass, my already sensitive hearing gets so bombarded I have to take it off.
Somehow brass RESISTS energy flow and causes us to PROCESS it. It doesn’t cause energy blocks but it can be overwhelming if you’re physically weak, recovering from trauma etc.
It’s something you wear when you’re all ready to conquer a project. It’s what was used a lot for armor in battle. I think that really describes it best – it is the metal for war.
If you dare to wear brass long term, it will overwhelm you, irritate you and then make you vibrationally stronger and stronger and stronger, raise your resistance to everything.
Tin and Pewter
This one really surprised me, Ed. You remember the time I found your address online and I wanted to buy you a gift? My budget was $5 and the only thing I liked was this early 1900s “pewter” eagle pendant somehow on sale in antique shop. I thought it was very unique and sent it to you. Later on I realized the eagle is one of the symbols of the US and therefore very widely worn in the US.
I regretted my choice and I was crying about how I should have sent you something else. I didn’t even know what “pewter” was, so I opened my images folder to look at the pendant again. And to my surprise I realized that it is an alloy of tin, and antimony (more about that coming up), copper.
But what REALLY surprised me was that as I tuned into its frequency, I found that it’s an eliminator of noise in the energy field.
When a person is bombarded by sound, radiation and all vibrational assault, there tends to be noise in the energy field, toxins if you will; the result of the energy field dealing with or resisting the onslaught. Something like pollution. This can block a person’s sensitivity to the environment, cause sluggishness and heaviness. I found that pewter and even tin have this purifying effect on the energy field; and because of that, it supports creative energy release, increase in psychic and spiritual sensitivity.
In Ayurveda, a tin ring called “Ranga Ring” (the common misconception is that it’s made out of lead; I bought one, it’s tin) is recommended for weight-loss. I don’t know if I lost weight or not, but I really like the energy of it.
Antique pewter, had lead, not tin, as the main ingredient, Ed, and it was nothing but good.
Lead
Now I know lead has a bad name. But in my personal experience, lead is a most wonderful, vibrant powerful aid to nervous system healing, balance, stability….. Ed, I wrote a whole article about lead ore crystals Galena, Anglesite and Cerrusite. I think I’ll just link to it for those who want to know more. The Magic of Lead Ore Galena & Anglesite for Metabolic Balance, Spiritual Vision, Brain Healing
My life and me have been thoroughly turned inside out by wearing lead and there are no words in which I could possibly express my admiration and adoration of it.
Antimony
I discovered antimony when Pluto was moving into Aquarius early 2025. I found that antimony’s vibration was very Pluto, and at the same time, Black Moon Lilith. I wrote about it in the introduction for my book on releasing sexual energy blocks – Black Moon Lilith – Honor Your Poison.
Antimony pulls in the stray and hanging about parts of us. This results in a focusing of our energy, that very simply, can be called “Power”.
I’m still on my journey to being helped by Antimony. The ancients used it to make kohl – remember Cleopatra? It is still made and worn in many parts of the world. I made my own with antimony I got off Amazon. Now and then it calls me from the shelf near where I sit to type, and I put it on, and I feel like the boss of me again.
If I had to choose ONE metal for shadow work, it’s Antimony. I wrapped a piece in a tissue paper and carried it on me for many months. It just kept calling me out of that attitude of complacency I was in the habit of falling into. Sometimes I got irritated and took it off. But it then was influencing me from the table. The connection’s been made.
If you’re in an environment with a LOT of deception, betrayal, negative energy; Antimony can help you stop being scared, start accepting your destiny as a warrior; using the poison that rage generates in you as a spiritual weapon to fight evil.
It moves a person from shame to acceptance of one’s sexuality which is one’s power. More in: Black Moon Lilith – Honor Your Poison for Spirit Vision
Titanium
The metal is a lightweight, corrosion resistant one, used to make planes and such. I got you a titanium ring as a gift, Ed, which I keep for whenever I reach you. It’s too big for any of my fingers, but I wear it on a chain now and then. The way it affects me, is it makes me not give a crap. The me before I wore that ring for a year and the me now, is that I genuinely no longer give a damn for what anyone thinks of me.
I don’t know how else to put it, Ed. I used to THINK I didn’t give a damn for others’ opinions, but actually I still did. But a year of wearing your titanium ring and I can see the difference. It’s been great for me, because I write stuff that’s on the fringes of what’s accepted in the mainstream. Since stopping giving a damn, I have written and published books like my Granddad’s life story – The Eighth of Seven Children; The Medicinal Uses of Urine and Sexual Fluids, A Conversation with Demon Balthazar – books that I’d not have ever written or published before. I consistently publish stuff like that at The Sky and The Womb .
Tungsten
This metal is what they used to use in the old light bulbs for the filament. Because it has such a high melting point that it can hold the heat that is required to create that much light, without breaking.
They have tungsten carbide rings for men.
While tungsten drastically raises energy field, and RADIATION resistance, the thing that’s quite amazing is that it has this influence where it also increases a person’s “taking space”; increases the PRESENCE of the person.
It has an “I am here,” energy.
You need to be careful with this. Some people do not want their presence to be loud and defined and there. It depends on your immediate physical environment. Tungsten is VERY physical.
There’s a reason why these rings are more popular with men than women. Not that it should be that way, but it’s more of a masculine thing to be like, “I’m here, deal with it.”
If women are in a safe place, then women would be as attracted to this metal too.
Perhaps more women should get tungsten and just face whatever, assert our physical presence.
I feel it’s a really sexy vibe for both men and women. I can’t begin to imagine how it would change a person’s life to be fearlessly physically present like that.
Mercury and Parad
Mercury or Quick silver, Ed, has to be combined with silver in an alloy called “Parad”. I love Parad. I have a 7mm bead of it, just one that I wear in anklet with other beads. They’ve all articles on the internet about it but nothing really describes it, I feel, like how I experience it.
In dreams, Ed, sometimes we experience ourselves falling into our bodies, and we wake up in a shock clutching the bed or couch. Have you experienced that?
Mercury and Silver, or Parad causes that effect with our nervous system; where we are awake and aware of what’s happening in our brain, our nerves. You’d be surprised at how unaware we are of our nervous systems, most of us.
Silver is straight out emotional awareness, but combined with Mercury you begin to see the place where emotions affect the physical nervous system. You feel the electricity, the temperature drops and rises, you can feel the dehydration in some parts of you before you’re FULLY dehydrated.
Initially this can be almost traumatic, especially if you’re coming out of years of suppressing yourself emotionally.
But as you go on, this becomes your strength, because you’re aware of your thought and emotional patterns. You know if you’re fantasizing about something because you’re hormonal and not because it’s nutrition.
I have been massively impacted by realizing how much of my cravings for food are from emotional reasons instead of “needing nutrition”. This set me free from eating stuff I don’t like and don’t need. It’s just one example of how awareness of emotions along with physical nervous system can make us understand ourselves and make moves in awareness instead of being pulled along by the nervous system into things.
The holistic awareness of Mercury + Silver, Parad is just something wonderful. It’s available online.
I feel, Ed, this is as much information as one article will hold, so that’s all about metals for now.
Apparently I completely forgot to send this out in this newsletter:
