'''Silver''' is a metal strongly associated with the moon. As such, it's closely linked to [[emotion]]s and the [[unconscious]] mind, as well as receptivity, reaction and reflection. It's a magically neutral, high level conductor, carrying all things both ways. Silver absorbs energy but doesn't store it, which makes it into a very good metal for [[magic]]al [[charm]]s that need to flow and work on a continuous basis and without needing to be [[cleansing|cleaned]].<ref>{{cite|url=https://magic-spells-and-potions.com/magical_properties_of_metal.htm|title=Magical Properties Of Metals|first=Silvia|last=Hartmann|date=April 11, 2006}}</ref>

Silver is [[psychic]]-inducing, used for [[scrying]], improves fertility, and can attract wealth. As a protective [[charm]], silver [[reflection|reflects]] negativity and guards travelers, especially at sea. Wearing silver on the [[Moon#full moon|full moon]] may make some people feel [[emotion]]ally overwhelmed. At other times in the moon's cycle, silver can calm and help keep thoughts and emotions in line.<ref>{{cite|url=http://www.thewhitegoddess.co.uk/the_elements/the_metals.asp|title=The Seven Noble Metals Of The Ancients}}</ref>
