Brown - The Color of Our Earth
While there are many colors that can be derived from
mixing the natural rays in various degrees, brown is a
special mixture because it is the color of many elements
of the natural Earth. Brown is a very comfortable color to
humans. It is the color of home, Earth, and nature. It
makes us feel good. Brown is the color of the surface of
the Earth.: It is the color of grounding and connection. It
is the relaxation color, the color of being once again
"On
the ground" and at rest. It is a retreat color, a restful color.
It is the most common color on Earth. Most animals and
plants are brown in some parts.
Brown crystals are excellent aids in a wide variety of
efforts. When we want to regain our composure, relax in
our life, reconnect with the natural world, or just find the
time to be ourselves awhile, brown crystals, like the
turquoise ones, are excellent aids. Modern life seems to
disconnect us from the Earth; we get caught up in the
hustle and bustle. We forget to be human, and we ignore
our true nature.
Brown is also the color to use when it is necessary to get
down from an excited state, or from being "up in the air,"
undecided, or flighty. When you need to settle down,
regroup, and revitalize, use a brown crystal.
There are many brown minerals and crystals. Amber,
brown jade, jasper, selenite, tourmaline, fire agates, tiger's
eyes, and magnetite are just a few of the common ones.
