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.
