This chakra crystal grid arranges the stones linked to the seven main chakras on a carved wooden base, completed by six clear quartz points at the centre and edges. The layout is clean and decorative, ready to use at once in a meditation corner, on a desk or on a shelf.
The seven chakra stones
The grid's stones — amethyst, sodalite, howlite, green aventurine, yellow aventurine, carnelian and red jasper — are, in tradition, linked to the seven main chakras. The six clear quartz points take the role of the master crystal: tradition holds that they gather and strengthen the picture the grid forms.
What are the chakras?
In yoga and crystal tradition the chakras are seen as subtle energy centres along the midline of the body, following the spine. Each of the seven main chakras is associated with a colour and a theme. Importantly, this is a spiritual outlook and tradition, not a medical or proven fact.
What it is good for
The crystal grid is a popular focal point for meditation and quiet reflection, and a lovely piece of décor in itself. The carved wooden base holds the stones securely, so it is easy to move.
Care
Dusting it with a soft, dry cloth is all it needs. Because the stones are natural, each grid varies a little in shade; strong, prolonged sunlight is best avoided.
