  • Comparison with Argentum Metallicum: Most of the symptoms of Aurum resemble those of Argentum Metallicum. But there are certain differences.

    • ▲ MODALITIES ETC

    Authoritative Homeopathic Materia Medica profile detailing clinical symptom indications, modalities, and constitutional therapeutic actions.

  • Mental Aptitude: Illnesses are secondary to mental strains and stresses; repeated mental trauma leads to physical illnesses.
  • Self-confidence Loss: The patient loses self-confidence; he constantly scolds himself and considers himself to be a totally useless person and a burden on society.
  • Suicidal Tendencies: Becomes suicidal and in fact attempts to commit suicide.
  • Hidden Violence: The patient is apparently calm, quiet, depressed, and withdrawn, but when provoked, may rather jump to kill somebody else (against his usual suicidal tendency).
  • Introversion & Explosions: The constant self-denial, indifference to others, and others mistreating him, all make him introverted. He may suddenly explode violently, often to harm himself.
  • Dangerous Anger: If bothered too much, he may prove extremely dangerous and avenge his anger on others. One should better avoid bothering the Aurum Metallicum patient or indulging him in argument.
  • Origin of Madness: The madness is born out of prolonged emotional suppression.
  • Hopelessness: When the patient’s self-prestige is very low, hopelessness prevails around him and he considers himself to be a total failure.
  • Mental Anguish: His mental anguish and emotional torment can drive him mad permanently.
  • Cognitive Clarity (Early Stage): In the early stage, however, he can think and comprehend clearly.

  • Photophobia: The eyes are extremely sensitive to light. Strong light of gas lamps is very troublesome. Flashing light perturbs the patient.
  • Moonlight Effect: The moonlight, however, is soothing to the eye (though this is not the leading feature of Aurum Metallicum).
  • Visual Illusion: The patient eludes the stars as falling downwards, while in Calcaria the illusion is upwards. This sign is typical of Aurum Metallicum.
  • Exophthalmos (Protruding Eyes): Sometimes, the eyes swell and protrude out.

  • Ear Wounds: Very useful against the deep wounds of the ears, in which the bony structure of the ear becomes rotten, resulting in discharge of extremely putrid material.
  • Nasal Catarrh: The nasal cold of Aurum Metallicum patient is of chronic type. The cause is not the inflammation of the mucosal lining, but the involvement of the cartilaginous bones of the nose.

    Comparison: The nasal catarrh of Natrum Mur is related to the inflammation of the lining of the nose and not the bones. Administration of Natrum Mur first aggravates the symptoms resulting in copious secretions, and then makes them disappear.

  • Cardiac Inflammation: There is inflammation of the inner lining of the heart, causing chest pain.
  • Cardiac Dilation: The heart dilates leading to accumulation of water in the lungs.
  • Vascular Issues: The veins become dilated and the blood starts clotting within them. The arteries pulsate and feel warm.

    • Modalities & Relationships

    In Argentum Metallicum, the symptoms are relieved through rest and slow movement.

  • In Aurum Metallicum, the symptoms worsen on walking fast especially, which also raises the blood pressure and causes tightness of the chest and suffocation. In Argentum Metallicum, the situation is just the opposite.

    💡 Key Clinical Indication: Aurum Metallicum is primarily indicated for deep mental affections arising from mental strain and trauma, leading to severe loss of self-confidence, self-reproach, and suicidal tendencies.
