It is the basic question which will arise in any person’s mind that has little information about mood rings like what are Mood Ring Colors, what are their meaning, how does mood ring work. Mood rings are basically a unique ring which contains liquid crystal that changes the color according to our body temperatures. The mood ring was created in 1975 by two New York inventors, Josh Reynolds and Maris Ambats, who bonded liquid crystals with quartz stones set into rings. The crystals respond to changes in temperature by twisting. The twisting changes their molecular structure, which alters the wavelengths of light that are absorbed or reflected resulting in the changes of replacement in the mood ring colors. For example, if you are under stress your body direct blood toward your internal organs, with less blood reaching your fingers.
