Astrologer and spiritual guide, Sameer Joshi says, "If you wear silver accessories that are a minimum of 0.10% of your body weight, you will attract the positive energy of the moon which is stronger during a leap year."
Combining silver with semi-precious stones like emeralds and pearls is great too, especially if the moon is the yogyakaryaka planet in your astrological chart. From getting rid of depression and anxiety to hormonal imbalances, silver could work wonders for you.
Get Trendy with Silver!
With the spring-summer season on, silver jewellery has taken on a chunkier look.

"This season we will see a lot of large coloured gemstones being embedded in silver," says Geetanjali Somkuwar, jewellery designer, Silver Maya.
Chokers, pendants, bracelets and rings are big for 2008. Earrings were in all of last season but will take a backseat now. You can expect to pay anywhere from Rs.3000 onwards for a pair of earrings, bracelets and rings. Neckpieces start at about Rs.5000.
Look out for silver with brushed or grainy finish. You could also try chipped and chiselled silver with engraved designs. Geometric detailing like spirals, squares, diamonds and ovals are what you should look out for, Geetanjali adds.
