The seventh chakra is the starting point for the manifestations of the energies of all other chakras. It is the place where our journey through life began, we will return here at the end of our development. As the seventh chakra develops, the last blockages in the other chakras are also released and their energies begin to oscillate at the highest frequencies possible for them.

Colors - chakras - stones

Each chakra is assigned stones and minerals in a given color . It will probably not surprise us that a grenade is intended for Muladhara, for example citrine is intended for Manipur, for example aventurine for Anahata ...

You can choose minerals not only according to the color of the chakra, but also according to the signs of the Zodiac.
