CHAKRA & STONE RELATIONSHIPS

Chakras are energy vortices located within and without the body. In Sanskrit, the word "chakra" means "disk" or "wheel" of spinning energy. Most of us are aware of the seven chakras most commonly dealt with, but there are thousands.  Here we'll concentrate on the major seven.

The ultimate goal is to have energy pulsing freely up and down the chakra system so we use crystals and stones on an individual chakra that may blocked and in need of clearing and/or healing to facilitate the free flow of energy.  

For instance, the Heart chakra, shown above as green, has a secondary color of pink and is often visualized as a pink daisy with an emerald green center.  In this chakra we hold our self-worth and self-love.  This chakra gets blocked easily  as we get bombarded with messages that we're not good enough, wealthy enough, good looking enough, etc.  It harbors the hurt left after a break up with a boyfriend/girlfriend/spouse where we question whether we were worth enough to keep them. This is where we store trauma. Using Rose Quartz, Morganite, Watermelon Tourmaline, Pink Calcite, etc. will clear and strengthen this chakra.  Since this chakra is so important to our feeliings of self-worth, self-love and self esteem, look forward to a blog post solely devoted to the heart chakra.

When working with chakras, first know the colors.  From bottom to top they follow the colors of the rainbow.  Red, Orange, Yellow, Green/Pink, Blue, Indigo, and Violet.  Each chakra has a name and is responsible for certain energies.

The Root chakra at the base of the spine vibrates to the color red and is responsible for the physical body and its connection to the earth and all life.  These include issues of survival (food, shelter, warmth, etc.)  This chakra is also represented by a coiled snake and referred to as kundalini energy, which involves passion.  This is why red roses symbolize love and passion for another.  

To work with the Root chakra, choose red stones.  Garnet, Sphalerite, Red Jasper, and Red Aventurine are good choices.  These stones strengthen the rRoot chakra.  To clear a blockage from the Root chakra select a red clearing stone, such as Red Calcite.  The calcite will absorb any random energies which are creating blockages in this chakra.

Our Throat chakra often gets blocked as well.  First, check out the color.  It resonates with the color blue.  Remember what the Throat chakra is for: communication.  So you would reach for blue frequency stones such as Blue Calcite, Blue Fluorite, Blue Topaz and Aquamarine to open and strengthen this chakra. 

In my years of doing crystal therapy, I've discovered that besides the Heart chakra, our Solar Splexus chakra gets the most bogged down.  You'll  know when it's energy is blocked.  The Solar Plexus chakra vibrates to the color yellow and is responsible for manifestation.  If you realize your life is not working as you desire or things you truly need and want are not manifesting for you, your Solar Plexus chakra is out of balance.  Since it uses the yellow frequency, reach for your yellow crystals and stones...Yellow Calcite, Yellow Sapphire, Yellow Sunstone, Citrine, etc.  These will vibrate with the correct frequency to clear, cleanse and strengthen the solar plexus chakra.

Now that you know the seven major chakras in the human vibrational system, you can be aware if something feels 'off.'  When you feel this, reach for a stone or crystal of the correct color and place it on the chakra (or just hold it) and the compatible frequencies will realign that specific chakra.  

Remember that Clear Quartz crystal is an all-purpose cleanser and amplifier so if you are in doubt,  find your clear quartz until you an narrow down the issue at hand and find the correct stone for the correct chakra.
