Copper Healing Properties: Meanings, Powers, & Uses

What is Copper?

Copper is a soft metal with high conductivity. Copper is a transition metal of alloy and tin that is bright and shiny and comes in shades of reddish brown. It is used widely because of its thermal and electrical charge. Copper’s meaning is to conduct energy, clear out negativity, and to help balance the chakras.

The Ancient Healing Metal

With its singing brightness and its brassy coloring, Copper is one of the prettiest metals in the pack. While often synonymous with all things industry – from electrical wires to pennies in your pocket, Copper actually comes with a wide spectrum of healing properties. One of the most fascinating things about Copper is the fact that it is the third most common trace mineral within our bodies – linking us deeply with the soft shimmering ore.

Copper has a long history with the world at large. Tracing the lineage back, Copper first made its appearance in the known world in 77 AD under the Greek name Cyprium, a reference to the land in which the malleable metal was mostly mined. The name was changed later to Cuprum and then finally to the name we know – Copper. From folklore to finance, Copper has accompanied us on quite the journey. In ancient times it was linked to the Goddess of Love (Aphrodite) and Venus. It was polished until it shone and then used as mirrors. In Rome, heady lumps of Copper were used as currency and the Egyptians would use Copper to purify water and keep wounds clean.

Even with its ancient links to tending the wounded and being smelted in India to create surgical tools, it was only in the 1970’s that the United States started to recognize the healing elements of Copper. An amazing amplifier and conductor of energy, this warming mineral is ripe for helping you release excess charge and conduct positive vibrations. Copper can be found in many gemstones from Malachite to Turquoise and Chrysocolla.

Metaphysical Properties 

Bringing more than just the healing touch in the physical sense, Copper is rife with spiritual healing and metaphysical properties.

This is especially true when you have used Copper for clearing negative energies as you don’t want that energy to get stuck. Cleansing Copper is super easy, simply make a solution of warm water and a couple drops of lemon juice and salt and dip your copper into the solution. Leave for a moment or two and then rinse thoroughly. If your bright Copper has become tarnished you can also use a soft bristled toothbrush to gently rub the markings away.
