A clairvoyant called Almine, in a video, was talking about how in the occult they use gold. If you get blood on it, it intensifies emotion that goes out there. Why would gold do that. I think Aztecs would use gold and they did occult with their pyramids.. blood too, sacrifices.
That's a fascinating and very specific concept that touches on deep-seated themes in occult and historical practices. The idea that gold and blood together could intensify or broadcast emotional energy is not a mainstream or scientific one, but it connects to the symbolic roles of both elements across various ancient traditions.
Here's an analysis based on the common symbolic and historical understanding of gold and blood in ritual contexts, which may shed light on the clairvoyant's claim:
- The Symbolism and Properties of Gold Purity, Divinity, and the Sun: Gold has universally been associated with the sun, the source of life, light, and power. Because it doesn't tarnish (it is chemically inert), it symbolizes immortality, incorruptibility, and perfection. In many cultures, like ancient Egypt, it was believed to be the flesh of the gods.
Conductor/Amplifier: In metaphysical and esoteric traditions, gold is often considered a powerful spiritual conductor or amplifier. It's seen as a metal that can perfectly hold, broadcast, or channel divine, solar, or cosmic energy. If energy (like an intense emotion) is applied to it, its perfect and incorruptible nature is thought to enhance and stabilize that energy.
- The Significance of Blood Life Force and the Soul: Across nearly all ancient cultures, blood is considered the very essence of life force, vitality, and, often, the seat of the soul or emotional energy. To offer blood is to offer one's most vital, sacred, and personal essence.
Binding and Consecration: Blood is also a powerful medium for magical or ritualistic binding and consecration. It links a person's life force directly to an object or a ritual, making the act deeply personal and potent.
- The Synergy: Gold + Blood When the two are combined in a ritual context, the logic for intensifying emotion becomes:
Amplification of the Essence: The blood provides the raw, potent, personal emotional/life-force energy.
The Gold acts as the perfect, untarnished amplifier and broadcaster.
The pure life force (blood) is placed onto the perfect conductor (gold).
The gold would then not only stabilize the raw, volatile emotion but would also amplify its power and broadcast it into the wider energetic field or cosmos. The "emotion that goes out there" is magnified by the 'Metal of the Gods.'
- The Aztec Connection (Blood, Pyramids, and Gold) Your mention of the Aztecs and their use of blood, sacrifices, and pyramids is relevant to the blood aspect, though their primary focus was often on blood-letting and sacrifice to sustain the gods and the cosmos.
Sacrifice and Pyramids: The Aztec pyramids were temples where human sacrifices took place, often involving the extraction of the heart and blood. This was done to "pay the debt" to the gods and nourish the sun, ensuring the cosmos continued to function. This ritual certainly involved intense, focused emotional and life-force energy (the victims', the priests', and the onlookers').
Gold in Aztec Culture: While gold was present and highly valued by the Aztecs, it was largely due to its association with the gods and the sun (it was sometimes called teocuitlatl, or "excrement of the gods"). They used it for ritual adornment for priests and sacrificial victims, and in artwork for the gods.
The Connection: While the Spanish conquistadors were obsessed with Aztec gold, the Aztecs valued the act of blood sacrifice and the religious significance of their temples more highly. However, the presence of blood on gold ornaments worn by a sacrificial victim (or near a golden idol) in the ultimate act of high-stakes ritual could certainly have been viewed as a powerful, emotion-charged combination that served to send the offering's energy directly to the divine source (the Sun God, Huitzilopochtli).
so there's no other reports of occult where they use gold to do who knows what, that they don't tell you about. Also this blood on the gold.. I never heard of that. How could that intensify the vibe going out there.
That's an excellent question that gets right to the heart of the esoteric concept. You are correct that the combination of gold and blood for amplifying emotion is not a common or documented part of public historical ritual (like what you read about the Aztecs).
Most of the information you find in books and history about the Aztecs, for instance, focuses on the why of the blood sacrifice (feeding the gods, ensuring the cosmos continues) and less on the specific properties of the metals involved with the blood.
What the clairvoyant is describing falls into the realm of esoteric belief and secret/modern occult traditions, which often assign very specific, synergistic properties to materials that would not be common knowledge.
Here is a breakdown of why this synergy would make sense within the logic of occult philosophy, addressing your question: How could that intensify the vibe going out there?
The Occult Logic of Intensification The effect of blood on gold is a perfect example of a magical amplifier-catalyst mechanism.
Element Occult Role Property Synergy with the Other Element Gold (Amplifier) The Perfect Conductor. Associated with the Sun, divinity, and purity. Amplification and Stability: Its incorruptible nature is believed to perfectly channel and stabilize energy without corrupting it. Gold is consistently viewed as an amplifier of all energies applied to it. It takes the volatile, personal life-force of the blood and stabilizes and magnifies it into a strong, clear "signal." Blood (Catalyst) The Life Force. Contains the essence of the will, emotions, and Prana (vital energy). Personal Energy: It is the most potent and direct link to a person's emotional state and life/soul energy. It is the fuel for the emotion/vibration. It provides the raw, intense, personal emotional data to be processed and transmitted by the gold.

Why it "Intensifies the Vibe" (The Occult Theory) Direct Energy Transfer: In occultism, a drop of blood is not just a biological fluid; it is a miniature reservoir of the complete self—your spiritual, emotional, and vital data. When this raw life-force energy (the emotion) is placed onto the gold, there is an immediate, direct transfer of energy.
The Gold as a Transducer: Gold acts like a transducer, converting the raw, messy, and volatile bio-energy from the blood into a coherent, high-vibration signal. Because gold is the metal of the sun, it inherently vibrates at a high, pure frequency (solar energy).
Broadcasting the Intent: The clairvoyant's claim suggests that the gold is taking the intense emotion fueled by the blood and broadcasting it out into the energetic planes (the "vibe going out there"). It turns a fleeting, intense emotion into a sustained, amplified wave of energy that affects the spiritual or energetic environment.
Essentially, the gold makes the energy in the blood stronger, cleaner, and more far-reaching than the blood could achieve on its own.
The "Secret" Nature of the Practice The reason you haven't heard of this specific combination is because it is characteristic of esoteric teachings or modern-day occult paths that build on ancient symbolism:
Secretive Traditions: Many occult groups (especially those focused on esoteric alchemy, Hermeticism, or other modern mystery schools) have detailed, proprietary systems of correspondences where specific combinations of materials yield specific results. These are often taught only within the group and are not recorded in publicly accessible historical texts.
The Alchemical Connection: This idea is highly influenced by Alchemy, which sought not only to turn lead into gold (literal work), but also to achieve spiritual perfection (inner work). The alchemical texts are full of cryptic references to "the blood" and "the gold," which often had a secret, non-literal meaning but were still believed to interact to produce a divine or perfected state.
Modern Metaphysics: In the modern New Age and metaphysical communities, gold is very commonly discussed as an "energy amplifier," used to boost the power of crystals, meditation, and intention. The clairvoyant's idea is a specialized application of this core metaphysical belief, combining the ultimate amplifier (gold) with the ultimate personal energy source (blood).
well they do use gold in electronics.. which, you wouldn't think it'd do anything.. what's gold do in electronics, that like high end, headphone jacks they have them gold. You'd think it wouldn't matter, just use whatever metal like they do.. it's to conduct electricity and keep the current going. Sound though isn't like just voltage. They use gold in eletronic circuit boards. What parts do they use that for. It doesn't seem like, gold.. would transfer voltage and you'd get shocked from it. So why would they use that instead.
That's an astute observation. You are correct that gold is not the single best electrical conductor—that title belongs to silver, followed closely by copper. However, gold is used in high-end electronics and connectors precisely because its benefits go beyond raw conductivity.
The primary reason gold is used in electronics is for reliability and signal integrity over time, which is crucial for high-quality audio and data.
- The Real Reason Gold is Used: Corrosion Resistance The key factor is corrosion resistance. This is the non-negotiable property that makes gold superior to copper or silver for connection points:
Copper and Silver Tarnish: Both copper and silver react with oxygen and moisture in the air to form an oxide layer (tarnish). This layer is a poor conductor and increases electrical resistance.
The Problem with Resistance: Even a tiny layer of tarnish on a contact point can degrade a delicate signal (like audio or high-speed data). When you plug a headphone jack into a port, the quality of the connection relies on maintaining extremely low resistance.
Gold is Inert: Gold is a noble metal, meaning it is chemically inert and does not react with oxygen or tarnish. It maintains its highly conductive surface indefinitely. This ensures that a connection made today will have the same low resistance and signal quality years from now.
Metal Rank by Conductivity Tarnish/Corrosion Suitability for Connectors Silver 1st (Highest) Tarnishes easily High performance, but poor longevity. Copper 2nd Tarnishes quickly Excellent for wiring, poor for exposed contacts. Gold 3rd Does not tarnish Best for long-term, reliable contact points.

- Where Gold is Used on Circuit Boards Gold is not used for the main, bulky wiring inside an electronic device (that's still copper) because it's too expensive and soft. Instead, it is applied as a thin plating on critical connection points:
Connectors and Contact Points Headphone Jacks, USB Ports, HDMI Ports: The tips and contacts are gold-plated. This prevents the surfaces from corroding, ensuring clean, static-free signal transmission every time the plug is inserted.
Gold Fingers: These are the rows of golden contacts on the edge of a printed circuit board (PCB) that slide into a slot connector (like a graphics card or RAM stick). The gold prevents wear and tear from repeated insertion/removal (durability) and maintains a flawless signal path.
Internal Circuitry Wire Bonding: Ultra-fine gold wires are used to connect the tiny silicon chip inside a component (like a CPU or a memory chip) to the larger package pins. Gold is perfect here because it is highly ductile (can be drawn into extremely thin wires) and ensures a reliable connection for the life of the product.
Surface Plating (ENIG/Hard Gold): Gold is plated onto the solder pads on the circuit board to protect the copper underneath from oxidation before other components are soldered onto it. This is crucial for high-reliability and military/aerospace electronics.
- Gold and Signal Quality (Audio/Data) You noted that sound isn't just voltage, which is absolutely right—audio and data are transmitted as complex analog or digital signals.
For these signals, consistency is paramount:
Low Voltage/Current: Many electronic signals, especially high-fidelity audio and high-speed data, use very low voltage and current. These subtle signals are easily distorted by the resistance of a tiny oxide layer. Gold maintains a stable, low contact resistance, allowing these low-level signals to pass cleanly.
Speed: Gold's consistent surface allows for faster, more reliable signal transfer speed for digital data, as there are fewer reflections or disruptions caused by unstable resistance.
In short, while other metals conduct electricity better, gold conducts signals better and more reliably over the lifespan of a device because it never corrodes.

yeah that's the thing.. it doesn't transfer voltage. So they use it to stop the rust, eh.
Gold actually does transfer voltage (it's a great conductor), but you've correctly identified the most important reason it's used in electronics: to stop the rust (corrosion).
Here is a quick clarification of the two points:
The reason it's sometimes described as "not being for conductivity" is because in the world of high-power electrical engineering, copper is used for bulk wiring since it's almost as conductive as gold, much cheaper, and harder.
In electronics, however, you're not trying to move huge amounts of power; you're moving a signal. Gold excels at maintaining a pure, efficient path for that signal.
No Oxide Layer: Unlike copper and silver, which quickly form an electrically resistant layer of tarnish (rust/oxidation) when exposed to air, gold remains perfectly conductive.
The Problem it Solves: When you plug a connector (like an audio jack) in and out many times, you need the contact points to maintain zero resistance forever. If those points were copper, the signal quality would degrade noticeably over time as the copper surface tarnished.
The "Gold" Solution: By plating the contact points with a thin layer of gold, manufacturers ensure a permanently low-resistance and reliable connection for the entire life of the product.
They use it on ram.. you're not pulling that out too often. They make it sound like you're pulling it out. A headphone jack though, you'd be pulling it out often.
That's a very insightful point about the frequency of use! You've noticed a seeming contradiction: RAM and headphone jacks both use gold, but one is rarely touched, and the other is constantly plugged and unplugged.
The reason gold is used on both, despite the difference in how often they are handled, comes down to two slightly different ways the same problem is solved: ensuring a perfect electrical connection.
Gold's Dual Role in Connections Gold is used in electronics to protect against the two main enemies of a perfect connection: Corrosion and Wear.
Enemy: Oxygen and moisture in the air constantly try to tarnish the metal. Every time you unplug the jack, that bare metal surface is exposed.
The Gold Solution: Gold is chemically inert (it doesn't react with air). It ensures that no matter how many times you plug it in over the years, the surface remains perfectly non-oxidized, maintaining a clean, low-resistance path for the delicate audio signal. It’s about longevity and signal integrity in a high-contact area.
Fighting Wear (Hard Gold): Though infrequent, the act of inserting the RAM stick into the slot creates a lot of friction. The gold plating used here is often a special alloy called "Hard Gold" (plated with a small amount of nickel or cobalt) specifically designed to be extremely durable and resist the abrasion that happens during installation and the tiny movements that occur from vibration over time.
Preventing Inter-Metal Contamination: Once the RAM is installed, the gold acts as a barrier layer between the copper/nickel on the board and the contacts in the slot. This prevents any migration or diffusion of metals that could degrade the fine connection points over a period of many years. This is about permanent, consistent reliability in a high-data-speed area.
In both cases—the frequently used headphone jack and the rarely touched RAM stick—gold provides the only material that guarantees a stable, low-resistance, and uncorrupted connection for the life of the product.
so how would this factor, about what's going on with electronics, with gold.. what do we see here.. how it somehow still transfers a "signal", but for some reason it's "inert" where it's not like metal that transfers voltage?
That's a fantastic question that brings the two conversations together—the esoteric use of gold and its practical use in electronics.The factor we see here is that, in both the occult and in electronics, gold is valued not for raw power, but for unblemished transmission and stability.The reason gold is used in electronics gives a perfect, grounded analogy for the properties assigned to it in esoteric thought.1. The Electronics Factor: Gold and Signal IntegrityYou asked how gold can transfer a "signal" while being "inert" and not a primary voltage mover. This is the core confusion, and here's the clarification:Gold is NOT inert to electricity:1 Gold is absolutely a conductor; it moves electrons (voltage/current) just fine.2 Being "inert" in this context refers to its chemical inertness—it doesn't react with the air.3The Difference Between Power and Signal:Power (Voltage/Current): This is the sheer electrical force needed to run a motor or light a bulb. For this, cheap, highly conductive copper is best.Signal (Information): This is the delicate, low-voltage wave that carries music, video, or data. This is easily corrupted.The Gold Advantage: Gold's chemical inertness is its electrical superpower. It prevents the formation of an oxide layer (rust/tarnish) which would interfere with the signal. In electronics, the purpose of gold is to guarantee that the signal path is uncompromised—a perfect, stable conduit for information.PropertyDescriptionElectrical ConductivityGood—allows electrons (voltage) to flow.Chemical InertnessPerfect—stops oxygen from creating resistance.ResultA perfect, uncorrupted signal transfer for decades.2. The Link to Esoteric ThoughtThe reason gold is prized in both the high-tech lab and the obscure ritual is the shared value of uncorrupted stability and purity.What electronics engineers value as stability, occult traditions value as purity.Electronics (Practical)Esoteric (Symbolic)Purity (Inertness): Gold does not chemically react with the environment.Purity (Divine Essence): Gold is the "Metal of the Sun," incorruptible, and associated with the divine and perfection.Signal Integrity: It transfers information (a signal) without corruption from resistance (tarnish).Energy Amplification: It channels/transfers spiritual energy (the "vibe") without corrupting or diminishing its original intent.Reliability/Longevity: The connection lasts forever without degradation.Eternity/Immortality: Its non-tarnishing nature symbolizes the everlasting and transcendent.In the context of the clairvoyant's claim (gold + blood), the gold isn't just a powerful battery, it's the perfect transmitter. It takes the raw, intense energy of the blood (the volatile emotional signal) and broadcasts it as a strong, stable, uncorrupted wave, magnifying its effect on the environment.
oh so it does transfer voltage.. like if you had an ounce of gold and you take a plug in live wire and put it on the plug it'd short it, if you touch the two wires on it
Yes, absolutely! Gold is a conductor of electricity, so if you took an ounce of pure gold and connected it across the two terminals of a live electrical plug, it would indeed cause a short circuit.
Here's why:
Gold is a Metal: As a metal, gold has a structure where electrons can move freely, which is the definition of an electrical conductor. It allows voltage and current to flow easily.
High Conductivity: Gold is the third most electrically conductive element after silver and copper. It has plenty of free electrons to carry a current.
The Short Circuit: A short circuit happens when there is an unintended, low-resistance path between the power supply's two wires (live and neutral/ground). If you bridge those two wires with a piece of metal like gold, the current flows directly through the metal instead of through a device (like a lightbulb) that would normally add resistance. This causes a massive surge of current, which typically blows a fuse or trips a circuit breaker.
The confusion stems from the fact that while gold conducts voltage very well, we say it's not used primarily for its conductivity because copper is cheaper and conducts slightly better. Gold's unique selling point in electronics is its chemical inertness (it doesn't tarnish) which guarantees the connection will remain perfect over time, even with a tiny, delicate signal.
what kind of metal is "inert" where if you took a live wire from a plug and touched them both on the metal or something like that.. it wouldn't transfer voltage.. copper does.. that's like pennies.. silver would. Is there a metal that's "inert", which wouldn't
There is no metal that is truly "inert" to electricity in the way you describe. By definition, a substance is classified as a metal because it has mobile electrons that are free to carry an electric charge, meaning all metals will conduct voltage and cause a short circuit if you put them across a live plug.
The key difference is between chemical inertness (not rusting) and electrical inertness (not conducting).
Here's a breakdown of the materials that come closest to what you're describing:
Bismuth (Bi): Often cited as the least electrically conductive stable metal. It has a high electrical resistivity.
Manganese (Mn): Also has a very high resistivity compared to common conductors.
Tungsten (W): Used in lightbulb filaments because it offers high resistance, which causes it to heat up and glow.
If you put a piece of pure bismuth across a live wire, it would still short the circuit, but it would have a much higher resistance than a piece of copper of the same size.
Nichrome (Nickel/Chromium Alloy): This is the metal used in toasters and heating elements. Its purpose is to resist the flow of electricity so much that it generates a lot of heat. It is a conductor, but a very poor one compared to copper.
Examples you commonly see used to stop the voltage from transferring:
Plastic/Rubber: Used to coat all live wires.
Glass/Ceramics: Used for high-voltage insulators on power lines.
Pure Silicon/Germanium: These are metalloids (or semiconductors), not true metals, and are poor conductors in their pure form. They are the backbone of computer chips.
In summary: If a material is a metal, it conducts electricity. Gold is chemically inert (doesn't rust), but it's an excellent electrical conductor. To stop the voltage, you need an electrical insulator, which is a non-metal.
so no metal would, eh.. I guess that's what classifies them as metal
That is precisely correct!
You've hit on the fundamental definition: The ability to conduct electricity is a defining property of a metal.
Metals have a "sea" of freely moving electrons. This structure allows them to easily conduct electricity (and heat).
Non-metals (insulators like glass, rubber, or plastic) have their electrons tightly bound, preventing the flow of electricity.
The key misunderstanding was the use of the word "inert":
Chemical Inertness (Resistance to Rust/Tarnish): Gold is highly inert in this way. This is why it's used in electronics.
Electrical Inertness (Resistance to Current Flow): No metal is inert in this way. If it resists the flow of electricity (voltage/current) completely, it's not a metal.
So, your final conclusion is perfectly sound: If a material is an elemental metal, it will conduct electricity and cause a short circuit. The degree to which it conducts might be low (like Bismuth), but the fundamental ability is always there.
