Discussing the cultural connotation and benefits of wearing jadeite

People who love jade must wear jade. In order to make the beautiful jade closer to its collectors, carefully crafted jade jewelry can be worn directly, such as jade necklaces, rings, bracelets, pendants, jade pendants, etc., which are all familiar types of jewelry. People love to wear jade not only because it can make the wearer look more graceful and beautiful, but also because wearing jade has many benefits and is beneficial to the human body.

The Cultural Connotation of Jade

Since ancient times, jade has been regarded as the most precious gem for its deep and crystal texture, which contains the spiritual spirit of mysterious oriental culture. It is known as the "Oriental Emerald" and is regarded as the most precious gem. Xu Shen of the Han Dynasty explained in "Shuowen Jiezi" that "fei means red-feathered bird; cui means green-feathered bird".

The ancients named a gem after two beautiful birds. What a touching sentiment it must have been, which invisibly added a long-lasting cultural atmosphere to this gem.

It is surprising that such a beautiful gem is actually an imported product. More than 95% of the world's true jade is produced in Myanmar, especially high-quality jade, which almost all comes from Myanmar. Jade's connection with China began in the Ming Dynasty and flourished in the Qing Dynasty.

"A gentleman is modest and gentle like jade." It is precisely with its elegant, luxurious, profound and steady character, which is in line with the spiritual connotation of traditional Chinese jade culture, that jadeite has conquered the hearts of the Chinese people and is revered as the "king of jade."

Appreciation of jade is an art. Everyone should not only understand and appreciate jade from a cultural level, but also learn more about material things, such as jade materials, jade colors, and some common terms about jade, such as water, type, ground, reflection, etc., to grasp jade from all aspects. When people collect jade, they are not collecting the raw stone, but the objects after they are carved into shape. The process of artists processing jade is the process of giving jade a soul and spirit. Only after this does the jade truly have artistic value. Just like the Heshi Bi, its value is revealed only after it is cut and carved, and art is priceless.

The level of appreciation of jade is formed by learning from the strengths of many others. Anyone who collects jade must have a variety of knowledge and must understand the entire history of Chinese jade, including its varieties, shapes, origins and craftsmanship. You must also understand Chinese bronzes, Chinese ceramics, and Chinese calligraphy and painting. Because in ancient culture, various cultures influenced and penetrated each other under certain conditions. In addition, you must also have knowledge about gold and silver articles, because jade exists in combination with them in the jewelry category. You also need to master knowledge about ethnic groups, folk customs, etc.

Benefits of Wearing Jade

Ancient medical books state: "Jade is the most beautiful stone, sweet in taste, mild in nature and non-toxic." It is believed that sucking jade, with the help of saliva and its synergistic effect, "can produce fluid to quench thirst, remove heat from the stomach, calm irritability, nourish the heart and lungs, moisten the voice and throat, and nourish the hair." Modern technology shows that jade contains trace elements that are beneficial to the human body, such as zinc, magnesium, copper, selenium, chromium, manganese, and cobalt. Regularly wearing jade can allow the trace elements in them to be absorbed by human skin, which helps to coordinate and balance the physiological functions of various organs in the human body. Some jades have the physical property of absorbing light during the day and emitting light at night. When the light spot of the jade is aimed at a certain acupuncture point on the human body, it can stimulate the meridians, dredge the internal organs and marrow, and has obvious health care functions. There is a "Yanglao Point" on the back of the elderly's wrist. Wearing a jade bracelet can have the effect of massage and health care, and can improve the elderly's blurred vision. Holding jade in the mouth can, with the help of the synergistic effect of the nutrients contained in saliva and lysozyme, produce fluid to quench thirst, remove stomach heat, relieve irritability, nourish the voice and throat, nourish the hair, store vitality, and nourish the spirit.

At the same time, some jades have the wonderful physical property of absorbing light during the day and emitting light at night. When the light spot is aimed at a certain acupuncture point on the human body, it stimulates the meridians like acupuncture. If you wear a jade bracelet and have a long-term benign massage, it can not only eliminate the blurred vision of the elderly, but also store vitality and nourish the spirit.

Jade also has a special "photoelectric effect". During the process of slight application, cutting and finishing, this effect will focus and store energy to form an "electromagnetic field", and emit a far-infrared wave that can be absorbed by the human body, thereby inducing a strong resonance of water molecules in cells in the human body, causing a slight massage, improving the microcirculation system, thereby accelerating blood circulation and metabolism, activating cells, regulating the precise operation of qi and blood in the meridians, enhancing rapid response, and improving the body's immune function. Therefore, Chinese medicine practitioners say: "Some diseases cannot be cured by taking medicine, but can be cured by wearing jade jewelry regularly." This is the reason.
