Mood Rings

The Mystery Mood Rings Help To Solve

Is your girlfriend angry or sad? Happy or tense? Can't decide? Can't read what's going on in her mind? Well, can't blame you. People, and especially girls', moods are said to be very fickle. But, does this inability to read her moods land you into trouble often? If yes then buy your girlfriend nice mood rings. Said to have been invented by Marvin Wernick in the 1960s, mood rings accomplish what most men consider impossible.

Mood rings can actually tell you what mood your girl is in and warn you against mentioning anything that will upset her when she is in a bad mood. So, if you want to tell your girlfriend that you would rather watch the ball game with the guys than attend her best friend's wedding this weekend, make sure you read the signals given off by her ring before you state your preference.

Now, you may ask, "How can a ring inform one of a person's moods?" Well, mood rings are not the usual rings set with a stone. They actually house a glass-covered crystal, or perhaps many such crystals, with a thermochromic liquid. This liquid changes its color with changes in temperature and a person's emotions bring about various changes in his/her body temperature.

For instance, when you feel very happy, the blood capillaries in your body dilate, thereby increasing the blood flow in your body and hence the surface temperature of your body. Similarly, if you are feeling very low or anxious or stressed out, your blood capillaries may constrict, restricting the blood flow in your body to a certain extent and thereby decreasing your body's surface temperature.

Mood rings make use of the above-mentioned bit of information and change color according to the wearer's surface temperature. In other words, mood rings serve as a biofeedback system and inform you of the various mood changes in a person by reading the person's surface temperature and displaying a color appropriate to reflect the wearer's moods.

Since mood rings offered valuable insight into a person's mind, that is they helped one determine the wearer's moods, they became very popular in the 1970s. In fact, most people from that decade would still recollect having such a ring. It was one of the must-haves then and become an icon of the decade.

To conclude mood rings are said to have the uncanny ability to reflect the wearer's mood. Though the color codes and their interpretations vary from manufacturer to manufacturer and wearer to wearer, a little bit of good observation should tell you which color of the mood ring maps to what mood of the wearer. Therefore, if you require help with understanding your partner's moods, you finally have the solution. Gift her mood rings and ensure that she wears the ring at all times so that you can figure out what mood she is in. These mood rings work equally well for men.
