All About White Coral

All about White Coral

     The moment one utters the word gemstones, we are reminded of the ancient Egyptians and the royals of India? The kind of jewelry they used to wear was not just gold and silver but was adorned with precious and semi-precious gemstones as well. Corals also formed a major part of these ethnic jewelry pieces. 
     Have you heard of the legends of mermaids existing under the sea? Well, it is said that the White Coral is magical and that it is frequently visited by the beautiful mermaids of the ocean. 
     It comes from the sea and is considered to help us with emotional healing because of its association with a watery home. Let us now unveil the secrets hidden behind this precious white Coral.

How are White Corals Formed?

     Unlike other gemstones, the corals have an interesting way of formation. This includes the white corals as well. The Corals are formed from generation after generation. They are made up of calcium carbonate and are exoskeleton growth developed by the marine polyps. 
Not all coral are converted into precious or semi-precious gemstones; it is few varieties of red and white coral that have sought attention because of their intense colours and durability. The white and red corals are found in the coral reefs across the world, especially near the coasts of Australia and the United States of America.

Know the Benefits of White Coral

     It has many benefits to offer. The powdered form of the white coral forms an important part in alternative medicine therapies. It has been said that in the form of jewelry it yields many benefits to the wearer. 
     It is known to help our mode of self-expression and to improve our communication skills to a great extent. It is believed that white coral when worn tends to promote balance and resonance to our voice. It also helps in curing backache and also helps in strengthening our body's immunity. Also, it is said to help bonding with people and improve interpersonal relationships. 
     Its powder when mixed with water has been used as a cure for ailments like stomach pain, general pain and to some extent even to treat cancer.
It also helps in bringing around marital bliss by enhancing the love between the two partners. It is also known to offer good health and bring prosperity in our lives. These are said to ward off the negativity that surrounds us and also protects us. 

White Coral and Muladhara Chakra

     Every gemstone has some relation with the important chakras of our body. These chakras of our body tend to control the vital organs of our body including the expressions, thoughts and even the attitude. White Coral is associated with the Muladhara Chakra or the root chakra of our body. The root or foundation chakra of the body supports the seven main chakras of our body. It is located near the base or the end of our spinal cord. This is primarily linked to the excretion process of our body. The Muladhara Chakra is associated with the survival and safety aspects of our body and teaches us to stand up for ourselves.
     If the Muladhara Chakra is strong, we are likely to have a strong sense of security and a strong physique. However, when this chakra is blocked, we will lose the sense of belongingness, have a weak physique, weak bones, and weight issues and have a fearful outlook in life.
With weak Muladhara Chakra, we tend to have issues with the prostate, varicose veins, obesity and arthritis.
