Mademoiselle Grimaldi from the 18th Century Unlocks the Power of Gold Nanoparticles (AuNPs) in Essential Oils
Mademoiselle Grimaldi is credited with popularising the use of her "Aurum Potable" in Parisien Pharmacies sometime during the late 17th to early 18th century. Whether she existed or not for real is questionable but she and her process are mentioned in the book "Cours de chymie" (1675) by Nicolas Lemery.
Essential oils have long been cherished for their medicinal, therapeutic, and energetic properties. From promoting physical health to uplifting the spirit, these natural remedies have found their place in traditional and modern practices alike. But what if we could enhance their power even further?
Enter gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) – a groundbreaking innovation in the field of natural wellness.
Gold nanoparticles under 100 nm in size are microscopic particles of gold that offer unique medicinal and energetic benefits due to their exceptional ability to penetrate biological barriers, enhance the bioavailability of active compounds, and amplify therapeutic effects. By combining these particles with carefully selected essential oils, we can create synergistic blends that amplify the healing and spiritual potential of both.
To create these powerful blends, the gold must first be “opened,” meaning it is converted into water-soluble tetrachloroauric acid. This is accomplished using Aqua Regia, known by alchemists as “The King’s Bath,” a combination of nitric and hydrochloric acid.
According to the ancient recipe the finely divided and dissolved gold is then extracted using the essential oil of Rosemary which has a solar correspondance as does Gold. When poured upon the gold in solution, nanoparticles of the metal are drawn into the oil through a process we refer to as a liquid-liquid extraction. As the oil fraction changes color from initially clear to a light green, then as heat assists the reaction to a deep red, indicating nanoparticles of gold under 100 nm in size.
The colloidal suspension of NanoGold is shown using the Tyndall effect by shining a laser through the essential oil. The nano particles cause fluorescence of the laserbeam as it passes through the oil.
But why we ask should this technique be reserved to just rosemary essential oil? Here’s how this revolutionary technique can transform some of your favorite oils.
The Benefits of Gold Nanoparticles in Essential Oils
-
Enhanced Bioavailability: Gold nanoparticles improve the delivery of essential oil compounds to target tissues, making them more effective in addressing health concerns.
-
Amplified Antimicrobial Properties: Many essential oils are naturally antimicrobial. When paired with AuNPs, their ability to combat bacteria, fungi, and viruses is significantly enhanced.
-
Targeted Therapy: Gold nanoparticles allow essential oil compounds to target specific cells or tissues, making them ideal for conditions like inflammation, chronic pain, or even neurological health.
-
Controlled Release: Gold nanoparticles act as carriers, providing a sustained release of essential oils’ therapeutic compounds, which is perfect for long-term treatment.
-
Energetic Amplification: Gold, associated with the Sun, amplifies the spiritual and energetic properties of essential oils, making them more powerful in rituals and holistic practices.
How Gold-Enhanced Essential Oils Work
Now that we understand the general benefits of gold nanoparticles, let’s explore how this innovative technology can be applied to specific oils and the benefits you might expect:

Its connection to the Earth element makes it ideal for stabilizing emotions and fostering a sense of security, while its association with prosperity enhances manifestation practices.
Peppermint (Mentha × piperita)
-
Medicinal Benefits: Enhanced digestive support, amplified pain relief, and improved respiratory health.
-
Energetic Properties: Peppermint’s refreshing energy combines with gold to revitalize and cleanse both body and spirit.
Why Choose Gold-Enhanced Essential Oils?
This innovative technique offers the best of both worlds: cutting-edge science and ancient wisdom, drawing on the time-honored use of gold as a symbol of vitality, spiritual illumination, and healing across ancient cultures, as well as the traditional therapeutic applications of essential oils in herbal medicine. Whether you’re seeking relief from physical ailments or looking to deepen your spiritual practices, gold-enhanced essential oils provide a powerful and versatile solution.
Why did I choose these oils specifically?
Each of these particular oils represents a planetary correspondance or archetype that encompass the seven planets as do the seven metals but in purely vegetable form. So imagine a planetary conjunction as strong as a solar eclipse but instead of the Moon it’s Mars, Venus, Saturn, Jupiter or Mercury that passes in-front of the sun. these unique preparations are representations of such a conjunction.
This process works with any essential oil so the possibility for further research and experimentation is endless......
From a medicinal standpoint, these blends deliver targeted, potent effects that address a range of health concerns. On an energetic level, the solar properties of gold amplify the oils’ planetary correspondences, creating unique tools for balance, vitality, and transformation.
