Diamonds are a refined state of carbon. It is a wonderful natural stone. As we all know by now, carbon atoms change their form, under tremendous heat and pressure under the Earth’s surface and the crystalline beauties are created.
What we all don’t know about diamonds or “heera” are its beneficial properties.
Diamonds and its health benefits:
Wearing a heera stone not only gives you attention from others, it imparts strong vibes within our bodies. The vibes of a Heera has positive effects on our reproductive systems, circulatory system, and urinary system too. It is also said to be beneficial for several skin elements.
Diamonds and its spiritual benefits:
Those who believe in the astrological and spiritual impact of gemstones are aware of the power of heera.
These natural stones are beneficial for writers, actors and others of the creative field. They are also appreciated to ward off negativity and bring positive benefits for the wearer.
Heera is distributed almost evenly all over the Earth. They are in general found in “kimberlites”.
Kimberlites are pipe-like structures, again, created naturally by tectonic and volcanic activities under the Earth. However, Russia tops the chart in diamond excavation by producing 23,000,000 carats of heera in 2020. The next few countries down the line are Botswana, Canada, and South Africa etc.
India has produced 1000 carats of diamond in the years 2020-2021. However the value of Indian Diamonds has found its way in world history. India started diamond trading as early as in the 4th Century BC. Most of the diamonds gathered in the historical age were from the riversides. The gold miners discovered this precious stone in their pans as they sifted through the gravels in search of gold.
Eventually, the East India Company recorded the Golconda Mine to be the first Diamond mine in 1619.
In ancient days, India was the only country who found out about the mystical powers of Heera. Initially they were used for engraving metals and refracting light. The sheer strength of the white crystalline stone overwhelmed the artisans.
Gradually people started acknowledging the value of Heera stones, and thus they were used as a form of currency and symbol of royalty. But it wasn’t until 1074, when the Queen of Hungary designed her crown with diamonds, after which it became an integral part of valuable jewelry.
Although heera is a sturdy gemstone, there are certain points that one should keep in mind while taking care of the stone. Extreme heat or cold can cause damage to the stone. They are vulnerable in the areas where the carbon atoms are not tightly bound; these areas can get chipped from hard impact.
Choose a reputed jewelry store if you are considering buying heera online or offline. One can be easily duped by the fake counterfeit pieces circulating in the global market. A trusted jewelry shop can guide you in choosing the perfect heera for you.
