Chakras, from the Sanskrit word meaning "wheel," are believed to be the life force energy center of the body. There are seven (7) primary Chakra centers and it is believed that each Chakra is connected to our being on a physical, emotional and spiritual level. The Chakra centers are located vertically from the base of the spine to the top of the skull and each has a main organ and color associated with it. Light, the main source of energy, consists of these seven colors:
Body Center Chakra Color Gemstone Energy Center
Crown Violet Amethyst Spiritual
Brow Indigo Lapis Intuitive Throat Blue Turquoise Communication Heart Green Aventurine Emotional Solar Plexus Yellow Yellow Jade Mental Spleen Orange Carnelian Feeling Root Red Garent Life Force
Since gemstones and minerals are energy forms as well, when worn in jewelry our Chakra centers are stimulated. We are drawn to the colors we need to create balance in out lives. Visit ourFeatured Designspage and see some of our ideas using Chakra gemstones.
