Guide to basic crystals for chakra cleansing and balance

    There are many ways to heal, cleanse and balance your energy and your chakras. You need to allow the pure light to come in each of your spinning energy wheels, so you can achieve good health, balanced emotions, joy, happiness, awareness. We all suffer from one or another form of imbalance and there are not so many people in absolute state of purity or harmony all the time. We go through different times, hard periods, work stress, over thinking, lack of sleep, negative emotions. One of the worst effects on our aura and chakras have polluted” negative atmosphere, surroundings and emotions spread by others. For this reason we need to practice energy cleansing daily, which we access with meditation.

    There are several ways to open our chakras and allow the light to expand in them. Most of these ways are connected with the basic five senses that people are given from god. With the sense of hearing we can heal and balance our energy using tools like Tibetan bowls, pure crystal bowls, wind chimes, bells, sounds of Theta waves; all these sounds need also concentrated and calm mind and listening for between 20 min and 60 min. We can also heal our chakras with different instruments sounds, but I`ll write about that in a separate article. Another amazing way to open the chakras is with the sense of smell; it is used by aromatherapy to heal and balance mind; Essential oils have unique properties in that respect providing also sense of calmness, curing many illnesses on emotional, spiritual and physical level. Our sense of taste can be used in effective healing the organs and energy by eating fruits, vegetables, drinking combination of juices and drinks; Balancing chakras can be done also with concentration on looking and observing objects- like flowers, trees, nature objects, coloring or drawing mandalas. One of the best possible way is of course physical activities, yoga exercises connected with each chakra.
You can see there are so many amazing ways, all of them include the beautiful nature we already have! One of my personally favorite ways is using crystals. Crystals, minerals and stones (as well as shells, pebbles, sand) contain so powerful energy flow, that anyone who works with them closely will admit that. They are tools connected with the Cosmic universal vibration and energy, awaken with our sense of “touch” and inner sensitivity. They are connected also with the endless divine love of god and angels to us. That`s why they are given as a healing tool and medicine to humans. Even so we are just now awakening to the amazing properties of earth crystals. Many people still think by “scientific way” and approach, that all about healing with crystals is just a fantasy, empty talk or nice fairy tales. If you never experienced that effect, its never too late to do so! Maybe your sense of touch and inner sensation is not so developed in higher levels. That does not mean it doesn’t exist with other humans. So take time, observe and study the crystals, you `ll find the truth, when you search and re-search. I encourage you for that.

   Concerning my personal experiences with crystals and stones I can say I m really into their energy. I have relatively big collection of crystals, some of them natural rocks, another polished in beautiful shapes of balls or eggs. Opposite of the common believe that only the “natural crystals” (means not polished one) possess high vibration, I`ll say, no. All crystals, cut, shaped and polished in forms, have high energy. The clue is in how you connect with them with your own inner light, and how open you are to receive the information inside them. Not all people are highly sensitive, and that’s quite normal. But once you accept, love and connect with one crystal, it will become like your friend, and always there to help you cleanse your energy and heal you. Crystals will love you back.

I turn attention here on chakras and related crystals for energy work. I present in my list most common, well known crystals, you can always add some more, if you want. Make your own favorite list and enjoy healing meditation! * receiving crystals energy can be done by various ways. When you meditate just hold the crystal in your left hand, close your eyes and feel. Another way is to lay down and place crystals on exact points of your body –usually chakra centers. For example for working on opening sacral chakra place carnelian stone little below your stomach, fire agate (or any orange stone) on your heart, and clear quartz on the third eye. These are the basic positions for healing – the chakra that needs work, heart and third eye. You can also hold crystal in your left hand.

I. Root  (Muladhara)  * red garnet, Ruby, red Jasper (all kind of jasper), bloodstone, red agate, fire agate, red calcite, hematite, black obsidian, mokaite, petrified wood, shungite, red, black tourmaline, black onyx, smoky quartz.

II. Sacral (Svadhishtana)  * Carnelian, orange calcite, orange agate, amber, orange moonstone, orange aventurine, cherry quartz, sunstone, crocoaite, citrine, sardonyx, milky quartz.

III. Solar Plexus (Manipura) * amber, yellow calcite, yellow jade, yellow fluorite, yellow aventurine, heliodor, golden topaz, mokaite, sunstone, yellow opal.

IV. Heart (Anahata)  * emerald, green jade, Indian agate, green moss agate, lime green jade, green calcite, green quartz, malachite, prehnite, peridot, Chrysocola, Chrysoprase, green aventurine, rose quartz, pink opal, rhodochrosite, rhodonite, pink selenite, pink moonstone, green fluorite; watermelon tourmaline, kunzite, morganite;

VII. Crown (Sahasrara) * Diamond, Herkimer diamond, clear quartz, moonstone, white opal, purple, white fluorite, selenite, lepidolite, kunzite, morganite, danburite.

These are the basic crystals on each chakra. Some of them can be used for clearing the entire aura, and balancing all chakras: amethyst, clear quartz, fluorite, selenite, diamond, white opal. Some kind of stones are used mostly for grounding and cleansing the energies like all jaspers, and obsidians.

Guide to basic aroma oils and chakra balancing

    Essential oils are the basic alphabet of spiritual awakening and motivation for energy work. They are so important in our life, as they not only work on a higher level, uplifting and cleansing the aura, balancing chakras, but help also to boost immune system and fight many illnesses on a physical level. They are gift from nature and god to enhance, recover and heal, so they are pure natural medicine. Essential oils are wide spread and used in different ways – for massage on the body, in aroma lamp for meditation, in bath and water for relaxing, for making aroma spray. Take time and use them every 2 days for achieving best result.

Aromatherapy is used to cleanse our body from toxins, clear the blockages from our energy, so we can feel more alive and happy. All kind of oils we can use also for cleansing the energy of home, with aroma-lamp and spray. We need to have basic knowledge about what essential oils to use for chakra opening and balancing. Here I suggest list with most common scents for each energy wheel; I`ll add also information what other actions you can make in order to assure balance in your chakra. If you use the powerful natural gift regularly you wont need any other additional medicine and you`ll enjoy strong health and joyful mind.

I. How to use essential oils?
Most people are aware now of the ways aromatherapy works, but I would like to add this for some, who are just in the beginning of their interest with oils. There are some easy common ways. Have in mind that essential oils are highly concentrated and you have to put just one to few drops.
a)     relaxing and cleansing ~ take a bath, putting inside your favorite aroma oils mixing 3-5 drops from each (better use not more than 3 different oils) Add also little sea salt and enjoy the full relax.
b)     Meditation & room cleansing ~ put 2 drops of oil in aroma lamp and close your eyes and enjoy beautiful meditation, while focusing on the chakras related with this aroma. This works perfect for cleansing the space energy.
c)      Detoxifying, recovering from illness ~ put 2 drops of oil in a boiling water with little sea salt. Take a towel and cover your head so that to be above the steam, and to be fully covered; leave distance between the steam and your face and breath for 5-10 min the steam. This is used for softening the face-skin, for problematic skin or acne (with tea-tree oil) for cough and common cold –with chamomile and peppermint oil.
d)     Detoxifying body in the end of the day ~ in a plastic basin with warm water drop 3 drops of essential oil of any kind. You can add also sea salt and enjoy absolute relax and detoxification of you body. You`ll feel the energy flowing from down to up.
e)     Aroma spray ~ use a glass bottle and mix distilled water and 5 drops of one oil (25 ml) for stronger effect you can use three different oils, mix each of them with 5-6 drops and shake the bottle before use. Leave it for at least 5 hours so it become good composition. Then use for room spray, or on yourself (make sure to not spray on sensitive places –face or eyes). You can use this on arms, underarms, neck.

* Here I present my list with basic essential oils for chakra opening and chakra meditations. In many aromatherapy sites they differ, also they are mixed and combined in different ways. That is because each person have personal preferences and favorite aroma, but there are some constant oils effective specially for determined chakra.
