Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around the concept of gem vibrations, specifically questioning at what levels gems vibrate and the implications of these vibrations. Participants explore various interpretations of the question, touching on both scientific and alternative perspectives.

Discussion Character

  • Debate/contested
  • Exploratory
  • Conceptual clarification

Main Points Raised

  • Some participants express skepticism about the notion of gems vibrating, suggesting that they only vibrate when physically struck.
  • One participant notes that the frequency of vibrations can vary widely based on factors such as the type of crystal, its cut, and size, and questions whether the inquiry pertains to amplitude instead.
  • Another participant lists various levels at which gems might be considered to vibrate, ranging from atomic to cosmic scales.
  • There is a mention of alternative medicine beliefs regarding the "frequencies" of crystals and their supposed effects on the human body, which some participants view as unsubstantiated.
  • A participant references quartz clocks as an example of a crystal that oscillates at a specific frequency, indicating that the frequency is dependent on the crystal's characteristics.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants do not reach a consensus; there are multiple competing views regarding the nature of gem vibrations, with some expressing skepticism and others exploring various interpretations of the concept.

Contextual Notes

There are unresolved assumptions about what is meant by "vibration" in the context of gems, and the discussion includes references to both scientific and pseudoscientific claims without clear definitions or boundaries.

Please explain what you are asking for.
 


A quick google search of "gem vibrations" leads me to believe that this is nonsense. Gems do not vibrate unless you make them vibrate. Like when you strike them with a hammer or something.
 


The range of frequencies can be extremely large and depend on the type of crystal, cut, size etc. Are you instead inquiring about the amplitude?

Whatever the case, this might help for starters: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_oscillator.
 


I think they were at psychics forums.

  • atomic
  • molecular
  • crystal lattice
  • whole gem at once
  • together with the mount
  • together with the owner
  • together with the room
  • together with the house
  • together with the Earth
  • together with the Solar System
  • together with our Galaxy
  • together with the local Galaxy Group
  • together with the Universe

I hope I have not missed anything important.

Hi gems. You're going to have to be more specific - we aren't sure what you're asking.

Yes, you missed "together with the owner's cat (or cats the owner is cat sitting :smile:)"

How are the gems being vibrated?

This sounds suspiciously like the nonsense alternative medicine notion that crystals have some sort of "frequency" (what they're doing at that frequency is never explained) that may or may not "harmonize" with the "frequency" of the Human body.

Not so crazy. For example the quart clock relies on an oscillating crystal.

The frequency depends on the size and shape of the crystal as well as the plane on which the crystal is cut. In quartz clocks and watches the frequency of the vibration is usually 32,768 Hz.

It is well known that woowoo sites claim healing properties based of "healing frequencies" of gems. Let's let the OP tell us what he's looking for as opposed to trying to retrofit something rational.
