Lunar Influence on the Electrochemical Production of Colloidal Silver

 

by Michael Theroux

 

It is well known that the quality of homemade electrochemical

colloidal silver varies with every batch made. While some of this

variance can occur due to mechanical and/or operator malfunction, such

as improper voltage due to low batteries, the use of impure waters

(other than distilled), incorrect duration of electrode contact, etc.,

there are other factors which play an important role in producing high

quality electrochemical silver colloids.

 

The research work of Eugen and Lily Kolisko in the 1920s and 30s

introduced the idea that certain celestial events had a profound

effect on metals, and that the ancient traditional relationships

between specific metals and planets could be demonstrated via

laboratory experiment. The process of these experiments involved

placing cylinders of special filter paper into dishes which held

measured amounts of the various metal salts. Then, the capillary

patterns which subsequently emerged, could be studied with reference

to specific solar system events (a complete detailed description of

the experimental process is contained in the book, ‘The Metal-Planet

Relationship’ by Nick Kollerstrom, available from BSRF). Early on, the

Koliskos observed the effects that the moon’s phases had on solutions

of silver chloride, and that profound effects could be viewed during

lunar eclipses.

 

This information prompted the idea that lunar influence could produce

exceptional differences in the quality of electrochemically produced

colloidal silver. We immediately began preparing the necessary

experimental equipment for the upcoming lunar eclipse (March 23, 1997,

8:45PM PST). Two CS-300 colloidal silver generators were used for the

electrochemical process and a digital countdown timer would ensure

that each batch ran for the exact prescribed time of 20 minutes. The

first and second of four batches were initiated just prior to, and

during the eclipse, and the last two just after the eclipse. The

electrodes were checked and cleaned before each batch was run to

assure a consistent voltage throughout the experimental run. The water

used was distilled and was provided from the same bottle, and then

pre-measured into 8 oz. glasses of identical size and make. Normal

batches of colloidal silver produced in this way yield a count of

about 6000 to 8000 ppb (parts per billion) of silver.

 

It had been noted with earlier batches of colloidal silver that a

simple taste test easily detected differences in quality. Some batches

would produce a heavy metallic taste, while others had no

distinguishing differences from plain distilled water. After the

eclipse experiment was completed, an initial taste test was conducted

on the four batches. The first batches run just before and during the

eclipse were perceptually absent of the characteristic metallic taste

usually associated with a strong batch of colloidal silver. The two

batches after the eclipse proved very metallic in taste. These samples

along with a control were then taken to a local lab for analysis. The

results shown in Figure 1 indicate that the amount of silver began to

decrease nearing the eclipse, with a reduction to 1900 ppb during the

eclipse. The last batch revealed a rise toward normal levels.

 

This data strongly suggests a lunar influence on the electrochemical

production of colloidal silver. But, the lunar influece presides over

other factors which are a part of the experimental test setup. Most

are familiar with the lunar effect on tides, and going back into the

distant past, many understood that the moon exerts a powerful

influence on water itself. Folklore and fact abound with tales of

lunar influence upon water, moisture, and other liquids. Plutarch

instructed that the full moon caused such an increase in moisture that

it made timber, wheat, and other grains which were cut at this time

more likely to become decayed and rotten. If cut at the new moon, they

would be dry and brittle.

 

The medieval medical practice of bleeding was to be governed according

to lunar phases and their attendant proportions of moisture. Dr. E. J.

Andrews, in 1960, confirmed that bleeding is worse around full moons

than at any other time. Thousands of post-op records were compared to

the dates of lunar phases showing a remarkable 82 percent of post-op

bleeding episodes occurred on or around the full moon. Several other

researchers and doctors would confirm his findings.

 

The medicinal effects of many folk remedies were also governed by the

phases of the moon due to fluctuating moisture content. Bread was said

to rise and leaven better during a full moon, owing to a better

retention of moisture. There is a vast catalog of such correspondences

between the moon and water, and more still with recent scientific

investigations. G. Piccardi, a pioneer on water structure and water

activation, demonstrated that cosmic energy forces are important

factors in the modification of standardized laboratory chemical and

phase-change experiments. He also discovered a dynamic and energetic

movement to the Earth’s path in orbit that corresponds to seasonal

changes.

 

The moon is not without its effects on electricity and electrical

conductivity. Variations have been recorded in the electrostatic

strength of the atmosphere caused by lunar-phase influenced

fluctuations in ionization. H.S. Burr discovered that the electrical

potential of trees climaxed during full moons, and was unrelated to

fluctuations in barometric pressure, humidity, or the weather. The

only outside influence the tree’s electrical potential fluctuation

kept pace with was that of the changing phases of the moon. L. Ravitz

found that people also possessed peaks of potential difference in

accord with full and new moons. E.K. Bigg observed over an 81 year

period that magnetic storms peaked in intensity just after full moons,

and were lightest around new moons. Disturbances in the earth’s

magnetic field have been found to follow lunar cycles.

 

It is obvious that these associations indicate that the entire process

of the electrochemical production of colloidal silver is ruled by

lunar influence. For that matter, all chemical processes are

inextricably directed by celestial authority. It is essential to

understand then, when the most propitious times occur to conceive

these suspensions. With respect to the production of colloidal silver,

lunar influence tables must be consulted. We know that tides are a

direct manifestation of lunar forces, but there are also atmospheric

tides which play an important role in the understanding of how the

moon affects chemical reactions. D’Alembert, in 1746, was the first to

discover lunar tides in the earth’s atmosphere. Atmospheric tides

attend daily and monthly lunar cycles similar to ocean tides. High

tide is observed when the moon is directly overhead or on the exact

opposite side of the earth. This is called upper and lower transit

respectively, or " souths " and " norths " .

The highest atmospheric tide can be measured as air pressure, and

occurs at lower transit every day. These daily high tides peak twice a

month at new and full moons. The highest tides occur when the full or

new moon is at perigee (closest approach to the earth), and higher

still when the new or full moon at perigee crosses the ecliptic, or

geometrical plane formed by the path of the earth?s orbit.

 

From a quantitative viewpoint, these tides are extremely small causing

the barometer to rise only .001 inches in a day. This influence is

location dependant, and may be as much as three times higher near he

equator as it is in middle latitudes. This still seems too

quantitatively minuscule to have any effect on silver electrodes in an

8 oz. glass of water.

 

Here we must turn to the work of John Alden Knight. In the mid 1920s,

while fishing with a friend, he was told about the folkloric

" moon-up/moon-down " theory. The basic premise is that fish feed only

at certain times of the day, and that the best times could be found

when the moon was either " southing " or " northing " . Knight went on to

develop this theory over the next few decades into what is now known

as the " Solunar " (combining Sun and Moon) theory. Of course, this

theory didn’t just apply to fish, and he would discover that animals,

including humans, would become more active and have more energy at

these times than at all other times of the day. One might wonder why

they wake up in the middle of the night full of energy only to consult

the tables Knight created, and find that a Solunar period was in

progress. These periods last anywhere from 1½ to 3 hours dependant on

the moon’s relationship to other celestial processes. Minor Solunar

periods are indicated during the rising and setting times of the moon,

and Major periods are indicated during the two transits. These periods

are, of course, location dependant, and Knight has created tables

which are available for every major fishing location in the country

(see references). The easiest way to roughly calculate this for

yourself is to add 6 hours to the rise and set times for the moon. If

you are connected to the Internet, you can obtain moon rise and set

times for your local area for the entire year by going to the Naval

Observatory?s website at

http://riemann.usno.navy.mil/aa/data/docs/RS_OneYear.html.

Once you have these, simply add 6 hours to the daily rise or set time

to find the major periods.

 

These appear to be the best times for the production of colloidal

silver. If on a new or full moon, even better. Although we haven’t had

lab tests done on every batch (the cost is $40 per sample), taste

tests and light yellow color confirm a fairly good batch every time

they have been made during major Solunar periods. Minor periods

produce a somewhat fair batch, and in-between times have consistently

yielded a poor quality colloid.

 

Other moon factors to consider are high and low runs/rides, and the

traditional full moon names. When the moon " Runs High " , or " Rides Low "

on the equator, this refers to how high the moon is in the sky that day.

The moon is always highest for that day when it souths, but its height

above the southern horizon at southing varies during the month. It’s

at its highest above the horizon when it souths on a " Runs High " day.

It’s at its lowest on a " Rides Low " day, which happens about two weeks

later.

On the celestial equator, the moon is about halfway between these

extremes and this occurs twice during the month. This is caused by the

interaction of the moon’s phases and the seasons. For the Northern

hemisphere the midsummer full moon is always low in the sky, whereas

the midwinter full moon is nearly overhead.

 

The traditional names of the full moons for each month of the year

represent the qualities possessed by each individual moon. For

example, " Harvest Moon " in September was said to be responsible for

the ripening of produce. To the Romans, Diana’s day fell at the time

of the Harvest Full Moon, and offerings were made to her at this time

to ensure the ripening of their fruits. Some of the names associated

with each month’s full moon are derived from the traditional Algonquin

Native American or Colonial Full Moon Names as follows:

 

*January* Wolf Moon, Old Moon, Winter Moon, Yule Moon.

*February* Snow Moon, Hunger Moon, Trapper’s Moon.

*March* Worm Moon, Crow Moon, Crust Moon, Sap Moon.

*April* Pink Moon, Sprouting Grass Moon, Fish Moon, Egg oon, Planter’s

Moon.

*May* Flower Moon, Corn Plant Moon, Milk Moon.

*June* Strawberry Moon, Rose Moon, Honey Moon, Hot Moon.

*July* Buck Moon, Thunder Moon, Summer Moon, Hay Moon.

*August* Sturgeon Moon, Red Moon, Green Corn Moon, Dog Days Moon, Wood

Cutter’s Moon.

*September* Harvest Moon, Fruit Moon, Dying Grass Moon.

*October* Hunter’s Moon.

*November* Beaver Moon, Frosty Moon.

*December* Cold Moon, Long Nights Moon.

 

While this is fascinating from the standpoint of folklore, no

correlations have yet been made between these full moon names and

their respective qualitative influences. The Solunar theory seems to

hold true at all times of the year, but can be slightly altered by

these other factors, and delicate adjustments to your tables (plus or

minus a maximum of 45 minutes) would then be in order.

 

As you become familiar with these Solunar periods, you will also begin

to notice how many other daily events are directed by the moon’s

influence. Once the connection has been made, there is no turning

back, and many new discoveries concerning celestial influences will

surely appear in time. The practical benefits of these correspondences

are starting to reveal themselves to us in many ways, and hopefully

will point us in the direction of a greater quality of scientific

endeavors.
