Here are some more information for Emerald Green:

An area rug serves many purposes in home decor. Not only do they warm the floors, they add color and style to a boring look. The traditional area rug basically served the purpose of keeping the floors warm but today there are so many different colors, shapes, and styles to choose from that you will have no trouble finding a rug but you may have trouble narrowing down your search and choosing only one.

When choosing area rugs, there are some important tips to help you find the right rug for your room.

The color of the rug says a lot about the color you like. If you don't like emerald green you don't want to add it to your decor because you will need to look at it every day. However, if emerald green is your favorite color, you can add it to your room by choosing green rugs in the shade that you like the most. There are so many different colors to choose from. When choosing an area rug, you have two options; make the area rug your focal point or use the area rug to enhance the look of your decor. If you use the area rug as your focal point, you want the colors to stand out. Don't be afraid to go bold with the colors because the focal point has the primary colors in them while the rest of the decor accents. If you want the area rug to enhance the look, consider using a softer tone or a neutral color to coordinate with the rest of your room decor.

Next, you want to make sure it is made from the right material. There is machine-made material and natural material. The most common and probably the most preferred material used to make an area rug is wool. That is because wool can last longer than other rugs, it can be very sophisticated and designed in so many different ways. Silk is another natural material used to make rugs however, it is very expensive when you find real silk. Machine-made material is obviously cheaper but doesn't last very long before it pulls apart. It does however, provide warmth when placed on the floor.

How much do you want to pay for your area rug? Price is a big issue because they can be very expensive. Because they are a huge expense, you want to take the time to shop around and find the right rug. You can do a lot of your shopping online because there are so many different styles colors, and designs to choose from. Before you make your purchase you will want to check with the local stores to see what they have to offer as well.

The quality of the area rug speaks for itself. For example, a long time ago, an oriental rug would take a year or so to complete. Today, an oriental rug doesn't take as long if it is made by a machine. Although the machine made rug may be available soon and it seems like it is made from good quality, it actually won't last as long as the hand made one that took a long time to create.

You also want to consider the size of the rug. There are so any different sizes to choose from so before you buy your rug you need to see what size you are going to need. Measure the space that you will be placing the rug and determine if you want a rectangular, square, oval, or circular rug. The shape of the rug will play an important part in finding the balance of your room.

The Metaphysical Properties of Emerald: One of the True Birthstones for Taurus

The Late Spring Sign

By the end of April the Northern Hemisphere is free of its winter snows and it is time to attend to caring for the Earth and planting crops. Taurus people are very much in tune with the Earth. Due to the influence of Venus, they have a great love for beauty found in things such as art, jewelry, and the natural landscape. They are loyal, patient, and deliberate in working toward their goals, just as farmers must be in tending their crops from planting through harvest. When a Taurus person undertakes a project, it most likely will be completed! Grounded in reality and the physical world, they excel at professions such as artist, farmer, the financial sector, and politics.

How Gemstones Can Enhance Your Taurus Experience

Taurus is a feminine earth sign. What better way to celebrate the Taurus love of beauty and the Earth than with beautiful gemstones, the hidden treasures of the Earth?

Gemstones have both physical and metaphysical qualities that can enhance all aspects of your well-being. The perfectly aligned crystal structure of gemstones creates an energy field that interacts with our own when you hold it or wear it on your body. In this way, the gemstone can be used to calm you, bring you mental clarity, increase your energy, enhance your creativity, and much more.

Astrology and Gemstones

Astrological principles manifest at all levels of creation, from the largest bodies in the cosmos to the tiniest particles of atoms—all are part of the same network of universal energy. Based on the hermetic principle “As above, so below,” those universal principles allow us to read relations among the planets and extrapolate those principles to things here on Earth, to events in our lives, as well as to our natural environment. The universal principles that govern the planets are also seen on the much smaller level of gemstones, crystals, and metals.

The Signature of Gemstones

Each gemstone is associated with specific planets. You are already aware that each planet has its own personality in astrology. And each gemstone has a personal “signature”—specific metaphysical qualities, different for each stone, that arise from the stone’s association with its planets.

How to Make Gemstones Work for You

By considering the individual signature of gemstones, you can select the right gems for very specific purposes, according to their astrological qualities.

Gemstones can be used in three different ways:

1. They are precious objects of beauty that may hold a special meaning for us. We enjoy their beauty by giving them a special place on a shelf, desk, or altar.
2. They can be used in meditation by tuning into their frequency for the purpose of balancing our energy field.
3. They can be made into jewelry pieces for our pleasure, enhancing our individual expression of beauty and sense of empowerment.

You can learn more about the metaphysical properties of gemstones through my book Jewelry and Gems for Self-Discovery at http://www.JewelryandGemsforSelfdiscovery.com . In my book I teach you how to find your true birthstones based on your horoscope. Below you will find a description of Emerald, one of the true astrological birthstones for Taurus.

Emerald: Queen and High Priestess[1]

The name of the Emerald comes from the Greek word smaragdos, meaning “green stone.” In ancient times the word probably referred not only to Emeralds but to most green stones. Its color is so special that the color emerald green is named after it.

Emerald, along with Aquamarine, is the most fashionable, precious, and popular of the Beryls. The most important deposits are in Columbia, especially the Muzo Mine west of Bogota. This stone was already highly valued by the Mayas, whose mines were rediscovered in the seventeenth century.

The Emerald crystallizes in hexagonal prisms which grow in small veins or on the walls of cavities in the stone. It has a Mohs’ hardness of 7 ½ to 8, making it a relatively

hard stone. But it is a very brittle stone, sensitive to striking and pressure, and so it needs to be treated with care.

The Emerald is associated with the Moon, Mercury, Venus, Jupiter, and Chiron.

It is the queen and high priestess of the Beryl group, wielding both worldly and spiritual power. Being a queen and somewhat fragile, it needs to be treated with respect, but will return to you its manifold gifts.

Emerald shares with you abundant energy, both physical and spiritual. It helps you to expand beyond your fear into higher wisdom, praising and enjoying life. It represents infinite consciousness expressing itself through wisdom and eternal unconditional love.

Emerald is a powerful healer, connecting us with the omnipotent healing strength of God. It provides regeneration in times of convalescence. It helps to connect with our spirit in times of psychic or emotional drain, recharging us with energy and hope. In the Emerald we might find all the nourishment, empowerment, wisdom, and soothing energy we need in difficult times. It centers and calms the mind by balancing the right and the left hemispheres of the brain, raising us up into a higher meditative state of mind.

The Emerald is one of the most feminine representatives of the mineral kingdom:  the Shakti, the divine mother, and the goddess. Thus the Emerald is able to teach us what it means to be a powerful woman, how to come into ourselves in all our roles and challenges as women: mother, passionate tantric lover, caring wife, and creative, successful, and fulfilled professional.

In jewelry I like to combine the Emerald and the Diamond. They are like Shiva and Shakti, Yin and Yang balancing the highest manifestations of the feminine and masculine principles in the mineral kingdom. Together they carry everything we need to support our growth.

I hope you enjoyed this new perspective onto Queen Emerald. Please let me know if you have any comments or questions and I am happy to connect.

Looking for a Wedding Theme for an emerald green and Off white colour theme.?

Hi,
I am planning for a May Wedding, the colours are emerald green and off white.

I am looking for some wedding themes, in a very prelim stage of planning my wedding so Any ideas that revolve around the colour theme would be appreciated.
The decoration, favors, flower girl, bridesmaid dress, the wedding song, the centre piece ..... n everything

just want it to have a very classy touch and still not expensive.

Waiting.....

the colors are your theme...don't do a "themed" wedding!! Save that for your kids birthday parties!!
As far as decorations, you could have some sort of bamboo centerpiece and make it all very natural. bridesmaid dresses, i would do an off white dress w/ a green sash/accent to it... i wouldn't do a green dress, it's too much!
good luck!!
