Toxic Metals and Emotions

The following is direct information from Nutritional Balancing And Hair Mineral Analysis book by Dr. Lawerence Wilson with understanding and awareness one can make desirable shifts in consciousness.

Toxic Metals and Personality

LEAD

Lead is an extremely heavy, dense, acid-forming, soft, dull grey, and very poisonous element. It is widely used in industry, unfortunately, because it is an excellent lubricant for machinery and it mixes well with other metals. Lead was discovered thousands of years ago. It was used to make water pipes in the Roman empire, for example, where it poisoned the people who drank the water. This probably contributed to the downfall of the empire.

Psychological qualities. Lead is a dense, stupid, dull, older ‘male’ element. It can make one hyperactive, nasty, anti-social and even violent. Think of a rhinoceros, a rather dull, cantankerous and quite a deadly animal.

Symptoms. In babies and children, symptoms may include ADD, ADHD, mental retardation, a nasty temperament, bad behavior, and many types of developmental delays. Lead in adults tends to cause violence, mental dullness, adult ADD and many other mental disorders. Lead is associated with a very ill and troubled person.

Personality. This is not common today, fortunately. They are murderers and psychopaths. In olden times, there were many roaming the earth. Today, they are mostly seen on the evening television news when one commits a horrible crime. Otherwise, they are mainly seen in the horror movies about ax murderers and similar stories.

MERCURY

Mercury is a very heavy, shiny, very acid-forming and extremely toxic metal that is liquid or flowing at room temperature. It conducts electricity extremely well and kills many germs on contact. It is also extremely poisonous for human beings. It is widely used in industry as a fungicide, in making paper, in gold mining, as a lubricant, for treating seeds to prevent root rot, in dental amalgams and elsewhere. It mixes well with other elements. In the body, it has a particular affinity for the brain and the kidneys. 472 Psychological qualities. These include flowing, quick thinking, unstable, emotional, quirky, whacky, kooky, ‘mad’ or unusual, devious, underhanded, and is an older ‘female’ type of element. Mercury toxicity caused the affliction of the ‘mad hatters’ described in Alice in Wonderland and in other books. Think of a mad or rabid dog. Symptoms. Irritability, anxieties, shyness, fright, timidity, a strange look and personality, and ultimately violence and other problems.

Copper and Mercury

Mercury and copper are related, both in terms of personality and in other ways. Both are ‘female’ elements, although copper is a lot more advanced. Both metals have an affinity for the brain, and both are excellent electrical conductors. Interestingly, both kill many germs, parasites and fungi. Their psychological symptoms are also somewhat similar

Personality. Mercury is ‘all over the place’. Mercury personalities are often very intelligent, but not logical, and often dishonest and corrupt. Most are unhappy and devious in their effort to get what they secretly want. Many have a good sense of humor, but are quite serious underneath and cannot really laugh at themselves. They are usually uncentered, ungrounded, and often inconsistent and conflicted. They often have hidden agendas and often attempt to corrupt others to make themselves feel better about their own corruption.

CADMIUM

Cadmium is a heavy, very hard, tough, very acid-forming and very toxic metal. Unfortunately, it is widely used in industry for plating because it protects other softer metals that are underneath it like copper, brass or aluminum. It is used in batteries for its electrical properties, and in yellow dyes, among other uses. In the body, it has a strong affinity for the adrenal glands, where it is a powerful stimulant. It also is extremely neurotoxic. Cadmium is found in cigarette papers and tobacco, making cigarettes a potent source of this toxin. Marijuana and coffee contain some as well. Cadmium may give a false feeling of strength to those who smoke it or ingest it in some form. It appears to do this by powerfully stimulating the adrenals. Cadmium may allow the military and police to push themselves to take risks and do things they otherwise would be frightened to do. According to Dr. Eck, a possible mechanism for this is that cadmium sequesters copper, hiding the sensitive side of a person. The weak and brittle nature of cadmium, however, may be related to an increase in post-traumatic stress disorder in those who risk their lives on a daily basis such as police and the military.

Psychological qualities. Hard, tough in every way, inflexible, perhaps violent, and ‘macho’ (even the women). Cadmium is the lowest ‘male’ element today. It appears strong, but is really weak and brittle underneath. This is why Dr. Eck called it the pseudo-male element. It hardens the personality, as well as the arteries, kidneys and other tissues of the body. Think of a raging tiger who is ill underneath and just trying to protect itself. Higher cadmium women. Cadmium toughens women and helps them survive for a while in a ‘man’s world’ such as certain scary or difficult jobs. It is somewhat illusory, however. They are sometimes called ‘tough cookies’. This is beneficial for their careers, though they often suffer physically with more heart disease, high blood pressure and cancer due to cadmium toxicity.

Symptoms. These include fatigue, irritability, a ‘hardened’ quality to the personality, and violence when extreme. Many children today are born with some cadmium toxicity from their mothers. The more toxic ones are often hard to manage, angry and aggressive. Disorders such as ADD, ADHD, autism, learning problems, infections, delayed development and aggression often involve cadmium toxicity to some degree

Personality. The cadmium type of person is rare. Most are men who are violent, psychopathic, mentally unbalanced, unstable and murderous if provoked

ALUMINUM

Aluminum is a very lightweight, soft, shiny and toxic metal. Aluminum is neutral in terms of being acid or alkaline-reacting. It is used widely in structural material such as aircraft parts for its good strength, flexibility and light weight. In the body, it is a neurotoxin that mainly affects memory and cognition.

Psychological qualities. Mentally weak, ‘soft in the head’, a ‘light weight’ toxic metal.

Symptoms. Forgetfulness and if extreme, it is associated with all the dementias, Alzheimer’s disease, foggy thinking or brain fog, and symptoms of confusion, memory loss and at times delusions.

Personality. The aluminum personality type is basically a foggy-headed person who is not grounded or centered. These are common today because aluminum poisoning is so common. The person may be forgetful as well, and often spacey.
