FEATURED HEALING STONE: Chakra Stones
by Maryann Sanfilipp, Crystal Writer Extraordinaire

 
If you have been following Sandra’s Gentle Restorative Classes for the past few weeks, you have been learning about yoga poses and some crystals for each of the different chakras.  I thought that October would be the perfect time to discuss a little about stones for each Chakra and some steps you can take to balance them.
 
The first step is to choose a crystal or crystals for each of your seven chakras.  The crystals you choose will coincide with the color associated with each of the chakras.  Here are just some suggestions for each chakra:
  • Root chakra uses red or black stones:  garnet, ruby, black tourmaline, red Jasper, red tiger eye, obsidian, smoky quartz and bloodstone to mention a few.
  • Sacral chakra utilized orange stones:  orange garnet, orange calcite, carnelian, amber, sunstone, orange moonstone, tangerine quartz, peach moonstone, and orange calcite.
  • Solar Plexus associated with yellow stones: citrine, tiger’s eye, yellow calcite, topaz, agate, pyrite and rutilated quartz.
  • Heart chakra and green or pink stones:  rose quartz, green aventurine, rhodochrosite, rhodonite, amazonite, malachite, unakite, green jade and emerald.
  • Throat chakra utilizing blue stones:  lapis lazuli, blue lace agate, blue topaz, apatite, aquamarine, sodalite, larimar, celestine, kyanite and turquoise.
  • Third Eye chakra associated with purple: amethyst, labradorite, moldavite, sodalite, moonstone and iolite.
  • Crown chakra and clear or lilac colors:  selenite, clear quartz, amethyst, apophyllite, clear calcite, moonstone and moonstone tourmaline.
As you may notice, some of these crystals can be used for more than once chakra!
 
When you begin to work with your crystals, the first step is to cleanse them.  You can use Reiki to do the cleansing and, if you are not a practitioner, you can simply cleanse them by running cold water over them for several minutes.  Sometimes you can purchase sprays at a metaphysical store with which to spray them.  You can also pass them through incense or sage smoke and set your intention to cleanse them as you begin.
 
You can use your crystals in many ways. Meditation is a great way to use them to clear your chakras.  Place the stones on the different chakra points on your body and begin your meditation with the intent to bring the vibrations of the stones to each chakra to clear it. Stones can be placed on individual chakras if you feel that any particular one is blocked.   You can carry your stones in your pocket or in a pouch in your pocket or as a necklace around your neck.  You can place your pouch under your pillow to assist with balancing while you sleep.  Wearing crystal jewelry is another way to utilize the stones to help clear blockages.
 
With the full moon coming on October 1st, this provides a great opportunity to cleanse and recharge your crystals.  Simply place them outside in the moonlight or on a windowsill where the moonlight can stream in.  Again, it is important to set you intention when setting the stones out. Just ask for the ways you want the stones to support you with their vibrations.  Namaste!
