Crazy about kaleidoscopes
Kaleidoscope comes from the Greek kalos meaning “beautiful,” eidos meaning “image,” and skopeo meaning “to see”. So a direct translation says “beautiful – image to see.”
Sir David Brewster, the inventor of the Kaleidoscope way back in 1816 formed this crazy word “kaleidoscope”— to describe an interesting phenomena about light and the way in which the brain interprets light and the effects it has on the mind. He goes on to say that all artists and artisans of craft should use kaleidoscopes to inspire their art. So looking a fresh with this understanding at these obscure little toys, the crazy patterns take on new meaning. Since seeing beauty is harmonious and helpful to the mind, every time you look through your kaleidoscope you will become more relaxed, focused and creative. So why not start using one of our kaleidoscopes today with this information in mind begin to see what happens. It’s worth a try. Get one!
Become a little crazy and begin to engage your mind thoroughly through the beneficial use of reflected symmetry. These inherent symetrical principles of reflection are well known in the scientific study of light, but how can one show this principle of reflection easily as a fun science of light experiment? By using a kaleidoscope.
These principles of light state that optimal reflection is needed to interpreate acurate information from light. Well make kaleidoscopes such as our very own Gemstone Liquid Motion kaleidoscopes have a very clear and bright imaget reflection describing the optical instrument that presents a variety of beautiful symmetrical images that unexpectedly change from one graceful form to another.
Releasing Stress through engaging the mind with formations of awe, while linking both left and right hemisphere’s.
Noticeably relaxing and uplifting one immediately!
Kaleidoscope of colour
How colours influence our choices when looking through a kaleidoscope
As you pick up a kaleidoscope, two things happen. One its beauty astounds you mind’s eye and two its beauty and colours effect you emotional and physiologically. When looking at a different scope the effect is “not the same”, some move you more than others and then again others move you so much more deeply, more profound leaving you feeling almost breathless, even close to tears. Many believe that you know when you engage your soul, when you have a sense of sadness. An inner sadness not of regret or remorse but of been vulnerable.
I have found that this is how the soul seed of light is touched within each one of us. I have personally experienced this for myself on countless occasions, yet the first time I felt it feels like moments ago. Also having personally witnessed countless individuals on there own or in group gatherings respond to certain colour frequencies differently, who are brought to tears by looking through one. What I feel happens is that they connect with you on a deeper level, the colours and vibrational qualities of the crystals influences your choice…
Kaleidoscopes used in Stress Management
Patterns of light affect you in two noticeable ways. When looking into the kaleidoscope, the brain is activated by each eye, as each eye is linked to the brain. Left eye connects the right side of the brain, while the right eye connects the left side of the brain. Normally our brain functions in both, but often noticeably more on one side. In that we are either left or right brain dominant. Left dominance in individuals, like to analyze everything, control situations, in fact control everything, everything has its place and space. Right dominate individuals, enjoy music, art, been creative and are more open to moments of feeling at peace with where they are, ‘in the now’. When we learn to balance these two halves of our brains, we operate from a calm, clear and centered place, when the brain is in harmony with its self. We experience cohesiveness and find solutions to projects or problems lowering stress levels.
While looking at kaleidoscope images, one becomes more relaxed and remarkably inspired while at the same time the imagination is stimulated. These beautiful patterns inspire! With its soothing quality on the mind, this open eye meditation helps you entertain your thoughts giving you time to dream new dreams with joyful Wows! Over time the left brain stimulation manifests as recognition of the sacred pattern of creation. From its microscopic impressions, geometrical shapes, logical mathematical processes reminding us of our body’s own matrix. Unity in Diversity. Right brain is stimulated through your senses of beauty, symmetry and rhythm, images that stir the imagination and activates positive day dreaming.
What is now proved was once only imagined’ – William Blake
“Imagination is what makes our sensory experience meaningful, enabling us to interpret and make sense of it, whether from a conventional perspective or from a fresh, original, individual one. It is what makes perception more than the mere physical stimulation of sense organs. It also produces mental imagery, visual and otherwise, which is what makes it possible for us to think outside the confines of our present perceptual reality, to consider memories of the past and possibilities for the future, and to weigh alternatives against one another. Thus, imagination makes possible all our thinking about what is, what has been, and, perhaps most important, what might be.” – Nigel J.T. Thomas, – N.J.T.T. (November 10, 2004)
Ultimately you affect this internal chemical reality into becoming a more positive physical being. Kick back! Watch the beautiful images explode like fireworks in your Scope!

Kaleidoscope is a Greek word meaning “to view beautiful forms”. Its said the ancients “Greece had colour” and in ancient Egypt they had “granite prisms”, add the two, you have a giant kaleidoscope! But officially of Scottish descent patented as an “optical instrument” in 1863. Sir David Brewster was one of the pioneers behind the lighthouse lens design later made popular by the French. Natural scientists know it as ‘reflective symmetry’. Kaleidoscopes are normally made up by using two or more reflective surfaces facing towards each other, forming a triangle or prism. Their original intention was to inspire the brain to be creative. Artists would observe the formation of various art forms within the mind, or ‘imagination’. Gaudy and Ether were magically mesmerized by these ‘images’. As seen in their creations. Jewelers, architect’s, artists, crafters, designers, weavers, teachers, Persian rug designers, dentists, chiropractor, musicians, performers have all been inspired with these interesting forms.
Known at the turn of the century as “The Palor Scope”, “the most philosophical toy ever” .Today the kaleidoscope is used as a stress reliever mind focusing tool to expand the mind and ignite the imagination. Inspiring Creation.

Healing with Light
“Even in the sciences, you only begin to see the phenomenon in the sky or under the microscope if someone first describes what you are looking for. We need instructions in the art of seeing. Then the invisible becomes suddenly visible, right in your squinting eye. – The Souls Code, James Hillman
Colour has the beautiful and purposeful mission of alleviating environmental and emotional damage. Not with patchwork substitutes, but with the pristine power of Light, which works on all levels of our being.

Transform your life with colour!
Colour’s play an important role in our lives. Both macro and microscopically and our moods are effected by the colours we are exposed to. Organs and glands vibrate at different frequencies which correspond to different colour’s vibrations, this allows colour to rejuvenate body and mind.
Colour illumination, which is the type of light experienced when looking through a kaleidoscope, has an instantaneous effect on the body and mind. This, combined with the rhythmical changing patterns creates a unique form of meditation.
Modern science is now beginning to look at the eyes as gateways into the mind. Most of us are not aware that eye sight is merely a small aspect of the dynamic process called vision.
