Crystals Influence on Chakras

Some crystals can help enhance and balance your specific chakras—helping you heal and grow where you need it most! If you haven’t already, please read my blog on “Beginners Guide to Chakras” to help you discover what chakras may need special attention, and what ones are fulfilled and healthy. To practice balancing your chakras with crystals, please choose a crystal(s) that is ruled by that chakra, and place it in the area that the chakra controls while laying down. For example, if you want to focus on your heart chakra, you’d place the crystal(s) on your chest. Then, imagine the crystal is growing and spreading, seeping into your body, and mending what feels broken or unbalanced.You can hold this position and practice this visualization for as long as you see fit. It is most beneficial when repeated across an extended time period, but doing it whenever you have time or energy is also perfectly fine.

Root Chakra

When looking for crystals for your root chakra, you want to find ones that focus on increasing your security, self-esteem, stability, self-doubt, strength, physical activity, self-confidence, and self-worth. For this, it’s best to use obsidian, hematite, and red jasper.

For further protection, it can also be beneficial to place said crystals in the four corners of your bedroom.

Sacral Chakra

For your sacral chakra, you should seek out crystals that work towards increasing your intuition, creativity, healing, reproduction, desire, and sexual energy. I recommend using tiger’s eye, orange calcite, and copper.

For further creativity, place said stone(s) in the center of your creative space, such as an art room or office.

Solar Plexus Chakra

The solar plexus chakra needs crystals that enhance your personal power, protection, ambition, intellect, compassion, and responsibility. Therefore, it’s best if you use crystals such as citrine, yellow calcite, and amber.

Place these crystals around your home that have access to water, such as a bathroom or laundry room, to increase your power.

Heart Chakra

For your heart chakra, you’ll want to use crystals that revolve around love, empathy, emotional balance, consciousness, and self-assurance. For this, I’d recommend using rose quartz, celestite, and rhodonite.

To increase outer or inner love, you can also place these crystals in locations that are most meaningful to you—what you may consider to be the heart of your home.

Throat Chakra

Your throat chakra is all about your voice, and therefore needs crystals that help with communication, self-expression, and honesty. The best crystals for this include sodalite, angelite, and amazonite.

For further enhancement, place these crystals in places where you often have, or want to have, meaningful, deep, and honest conversations.

Third Eye Chakra

The third eye chakra needs crystals that help in increasing spirituality, intuition, psychic abilities, and your sense of a higher consciousness. For this, I recommend lapis lazuli, azurite, and blue apatite.

To build an even higher spiritual connection, place these crystals in a room with spiritual meaning or where you practice spirituality.

Crown Chakra

Lastly, the crown chakra needs crystals that assists in enhancing your energy, consciousness, and enlightenment. The most useful crystals for this include amethyst, selenite, and clear quartz.

Much like for the third eye chakra, placing these crystals in a spiritual or meditative space can help with increasing your spiritual consciousness.
