I didn’t really know where to post this so I’m going with good old AIBU question.

Basically all my life I loved silver jewellery, always been a silver girl, don’t like gold, not for a particular reason just don’t feel like it’s “mine”
Even for accessories like handbags and wallets I always look for things with silver hardware.

Also - I’ve never been an astrology fan. I don’t really read or believe them. I never really cared about star signs and what they represent or what should they wear etc. I’m a Leo btw.

Until recently I decided to upgrade my jewellery and go for more dainty and classic pieces. So when researching I also found that Leo’s shouldn’t wear silver ( shock! Horror! ) because it basically attracts negative energy, losses etc.
Also pearls, which is in my search history shouldn’t we worn by Leo’s.

And for some unknown reasons it got stuck in my head, like I must wear only gold now, I must look only for gold pieces. Last 3ish years has been rough and ( this even makes me laugh tbh ) , what if I stopped wearing my silver jewellery, because somehow all the negative things are from the there!
I don’t know what happened to me like I said I’ve never been a believer of these kind of things!
I wear jewellery every day. I have a silver bracelet which I never take off, a few rings.
And the more I read different articles about lucky stones and what should Leo’s wear and what to avoid the more I’m somehow convinced maybe it’s worth a try to switch!

AIBU - try to switch it to gold or Hell nah, wear what you like, want and feel comfortable in!

There really isn't any truth in all of that astrology stuff. Wear what you like to wear.

One thing about x shouldn't do this or it brings bad luck is that... Everyone hasrought timesand somehow horoscoles fit because they are usually just enough general to apply to life situations ...
Wear your silver

wear what makes you feel good, I used to wear gold when much younger, but then just liked the look of silver better, and now quite like some bits in rose gold. You could buy some cheaper gold coloured items, thinking like accessorize or similar if you want to see how it looks against your skin tone without the expence of real gold

Sounds like nonsense to me, but it's only jewellery at the end of the day so do what you want!
If the thought of silver bothers you, you could go for white gold or platinum or something - similar colour but not "silver".

Definitely wouldn't worry about your handbags etc - they're very unlikely to have real silver fittings, and I'm sure if there is any basis at all to your worries it won't extend to silver-coloured things.

But really, I wouldn't worry about it

Astrology is a pile of claptrap. What's happened to your powers of rational thought?

Utter nonsense!

I am Leo (and a semi-professional astrologer ) and am not a fan of gold jewellery.

It all depends on the make-up of your astrological chart.

You could be a sun Leo, but if you have Venus (which shows your tastes) in Cancer you will prefer silver .

Go with what you like and trust your intuition.

What a load of codswallop. Wear silver if you want to.

Batshit

I am a Leo and 90% of my jewellery is silver coloured - because that's what I prefer and astrology is a crock!

Is it the colour or the metal? Can you wear platinum, stainless steel etc without worrying!

Im a Leo, I wear white gold
