Our bodies are made up of seven chakras, which are energy points. The healing vibrations of crystals can be used to shift these blocks and shake out any stagnant energy. These spinning discs of energy have the potential to become blocked. Different crystals are associated with various chakras, and since each chakra is associated with a particular colour, you can usually determine which chakra a stone is energetically associated with based on the stone’s colour. The seven chakras are listed below
The 7th chakra
Crown-Sahaswara
The 7th chakra is the Crown or Sahaswara, which translates to “thousand petaled.” This chakra is pure consciousness energy. Location: The crown chakra’s center is at the top of your head. It radiates down to between your eyes and then extends infinitely upward and outward, connecting you to the energy of the rest of the universe.
COLOUR VIOLET
The 6th chakra
The Third Eye – Ajna
The 6th chakra is the Third Eye Chakra Ajna which translates to “beyond wisdom.” This chakra opens up your mind to information beyond the material world and the 5 senses. Location: The third eye’s center is in between your eyebrows. It radiates down to your mouth and up to the top of your head. What balanced feels like: A balanced third eye is a beautiful thing, and it’s really what you are trying to achieve when you start on a path to spiritual development.
COLOUR INDIGO
The 5th chakra
Throat – Vishuddha
The 5th chakra is the Throat chakra or Vishuddha which translates to “very pure.” This chakra gives a voice to your personal truths.
So, where does your voice come from? What provides the energy for you to speak? On a physical level, of course, the answer is the throat, but on an energetic level, this energy actually comes from your 5th chakra. This chakra lets you speak your truth with clarity. Resting right above the heart, the throat chakra is connected to the compassion and love you have for yourself and others.
COLOUR BLUE
The 4th chakra
Heart – Anahata
The 4th chakra is the Heart or Anahata chakra, which translates to “unhurt.” This chakra is where your love, compassion, and kindness are empowered.
It’s not hard to understand this chakra. We all associate our hearts with love, and that’s exactly what the 4th chakra is all about. And this includes love for others and love for yourself, which is why this chakra is also associated with health and healing. Location: The heart chakra’s center is located right over your heart and it radiates down to your breastbone and up to your throat. It is the middle one of the 7 chakras and it’s connecting the higher chakras (the heaven) with the lower chakras (the physical world).
COLOUR GREEN
The 3rd chakra
Solar Plexus – Manipura
The 3rd chakra is the Solar Plexus or Manipura which translates to “lustrous gem.” This chakra is where your self-confidence, identity, and personal power are born.
Have you ever been in a situation that you just knew wasn’t right for you? Where did you feel those cues in your body? Location: The solar plexus starts in the center of the belly button and extends up to the breastbone or where your two sets of ribs connect in the center of your chest.
COLOUR YELLOW
The 2nd chakra
Sacral Chakra – Svadhishana
The 2nd chakra is the sacral chakra or svadhishana which translates to “the place of the self.” This chakra is all about your identity as a human and what you do with it. From of all 7 chakras, this chakra is responsible for bringing you creative energy to help enrich your life. Your sacral chakra is the home of the creative life force energy that helps you enjoy your life here on Earth. It’s the energy that motivates you to enjoy the fruits of your labour, including indulging in pleasurable activities like sex and intimacy. This chakra’s location can be best described as being situated in the lower abdomen, four fingerbreadths below the navel.
COLOUR ORANGE
The 1st chakra
Root Chakra – Muladhara
The official name of this chakra, Muladhara, comes from the words Mula, which means root and Dhara, which means support. So, this chakra’s role is to connect all of your energy with the Earth, which is called grounding. When you think of your Root Chakra, think of your day-to-day survival here on earth. This energy center’s role is to give you everything you need to survive. For us in this modern age, that typically translates to financial and emotional security.
