i have a chakra balancing necklaces and bracelets and anklets. i am pretty big on the whole chakra thing. i know that when your chakras are misaligned you don't feel good and you're all off wack. depending on the specific chakra that is out of allignment.
yes, i've heard that you get a different result depending on which chakra is out of sinc.
I agree with your sweetblood although I have none for myself and would think they will have some type of spiritual healing when one wears them
Im into chaos magic n keep my used stones after rituals in a cauldron with herbs for safety as they have been part of me they need protection from what ever wishes to harm
oooooh, i've heard about that. what herbs do you use? what kind of cauldron do you use? sorry about the 21 questions, i've just always wanted to meet someone who knew what they are doing so that i could get a good account of how it is done.
I used to keep a rose quartz crystal near me, but i've become a bit of an old cynic about these things since.
I believe in accu-pressure -- or rather, the manipulation of pressure points in the human body. I believe that the right amount of pressure concentrated on any neural path can cause multiple physical reactions ranging from paralysis to death.
I also learned that the same pressure points can be used to alleviate pressure or increase the ability to strengthen thee area.
I have a bag of stones that I carry with me, and some of them correspond with the chakras. I have chakra gemstone bracelets that I wear as well that loved ones have made for me. I also like to wear citrine for my solar plexus chakra, which I sometimes have issues with. Citrine is one of my favorites because it never needs to be cleansed, so I tend to wear it often.
I know that this is very girly and has little to do with this thread, but I do mani, pedi, etc.. while doing a Facial if you push slightly ( down towards your toes) on the shoulders during the massage it will help a line the Chakras too.
i wear a big piece of Amethist with chakra balancing stones on it, also i sometimes carry a chakra balancing stone set - or a bracelet that my sister gave me. I know that they work - I try to wear one of the three at all times to help balance me out
I am a huge believer in using gems and stones, and use them in daily life.
I have a true Moonstone around my neck, that Never comes off, and it has many sacred meanings to me!
isistemple, it's true, citrine doesn't have to be cleansed as often as other stones but it would still help to cleanse it. i cleanse all my stones, just keeps them nice and charged and devoid of negativity.
I myself have yet to try this idea but I do have a friend who has carried around a black crystal for many years and I've always wondered why but have never asked. This might be why. It makes sence. I might just ask him if it helps keep his stress levels under control as well as helps him remain calm. hmmm. Thanks for the thought.
i have some stones that i like to carry with me for several reasons. i try to always have some black onyx with me for relaxation and to help in meditation. and yeah, i have a chakra balancing necklace. it always works for me.
I absolutely believe in the power they hold. I myself where an amethyst not only because it is my birthstone but because it transcends peace, I have it in 2 rings I own. I also have a pendant with 7 stones to represent each Chakra and keeps me in harmony and balance.
I know it’s not a crystal but I use a big rock of Amber if you run it with sheep wool it starts to attract negative charges.
I use it to keep dust n negativity down in the room it is in.
I also have a self made wand for such needs with occult matters with a nice piece of charged amber on it
There is one stone called a super seven or Melody stone that has crystal's that act in concert to balance all seven chackras simultaneously.
Here are URL for two sites that give more info on it and its component crystalline parts.

Whether society believes in the stones energy theory or not does not matter, since the stones actually posess a polarity within them that scientifically does give differant attributes to the physical as well as the energetic body.
Besides the functional help wich the stones can provide, a very useful information to know, if one is into bringing back his chakras in to balance wich got imbalanced thanks to who knows wich detrimental infuences wich we encounter and are exposed during our daily activities, and that is to sit under a tree, a bigger tree, in a standard meditation position, for about twenty minutes, and realign every single chakra with that process.
The gentle positive effect of the bio-field wich a tree is radiating, will bring all of your seven chakras back in to their own original position of aligment.
No wonder that people feel good, healthy, an relaxed, once they go for a visit in to nature, since we are products and a part of nature, and in our element with it.
Stones are good, and have their own function, but I personaly would always choose the Nature effect over stones.
The effect wich the nature has on us is undeniable.
Regular visits to where nature rules, is a one good way to keep one selfs healthy, and free of stress.
I as well am convinced that a tree works much better than stones, when it comes to disaligned chakras.
The tree is far more powerful for that purpouse.
The good-willed energie of a tree is precious for our organism and irreplacable.
I had never heard of chakras before but it sounds quite interesting and stones like stones they use in massages and things or im on a different planet?
I have a collection of precious and semi-precious stones which I use to give me strength, peace etc
I put them on the windowsill when a full moon is out to recharge them.
They can really work but only if you believe in it.
I bought my friedn a chakra balancing necklace to a friend of mine. She really needed something to balance her and keep her in harmony. she seems to have success with it and i guess that's what counts
http://www.crystalinks.com/gemstones.html
I have looked into them a little in the past. The only stone that has ever really tugged at my attention would be Hematite. I'm not sure why, but since childhood I have always been drawn to it. I do believe that stones can be helpful to us.
as a witch we work with stones but as for the Chakras I really don't use that I have a natural quartz crystal and black onyx,s that I use Smokey Quartz and other stones in rituals ans spells and blessings , sometimes healing,s but thats about it.
you should try to get some of the stones that correspond to the chakras, you'll be amazed how much better you feel afterwards.
i believe in chakras, i collect crystals because i do believe they have a certain energies about them, depending on my mood etc......i wear a certain crystal everyday.
Stones and placiebos, they work if in your mind you believe they do. If you don't they wont. It's all psychology.
Oh yea! I totally do :) From everything to curing headaches to balancing my mood.
Yes I have several different peices and if your out of tune you will damn well know it, ya onxy is one of my favorites. Alot of people are are unaware of of the ueses of the stones though great post !
I carry several different crystals in my pocket every day actually ,depending on what my day brings.
_I have a Crystal Egg that, when placed in water, is supposed to bring serenity and goodness into the room. I have yet to place it in water because I don't have a very good bowl, but I do believe in the power of certain things, and the power it can have over a room. I'm not quite so sure about Chakra. I don't normally wear stones and what not around my neck, I just have a 50 Yen coin, and a chinese star around my neck._
I personally meditate to clean my chakras. Feel so much better afterwards. Stones & crystals have something to them ,just touch & feel better.
_I think it has more to do with belief than with actual working. I've always been taught that, if you believe something will happen, or something inanimate or someone can have power over you, or have an influence on you, than they will. I guess, what I mean to say, was that I never really believed in the power of Chakra, or much else like that. I'm a cynic when it comes to those things._
I have had this stone massage, its supposed to draw bad energy out, is that kinda what your talking about?
I'm not sure if it has anything to do with Chakra, but I have a Jade pendant on a necklace that I wear a lot.
I get a calm sense, and a sense of safety when I wear it.
Thank you Oceanne. The website for crystallinks that you included was very helpful. Appreciate the additional information. I was also not aware that I need to clean my stones.
Oh yeah, cleansing the stones is a good thing. Keeps them pure and strong.
There used to be a witch store here in my town. And I was talking to the owner about some sort of perfume they had that was 40 dollars a bottle. She said if you spray it and walk through it it "cleanses you chakra" at the time I had no idea what she was talking about, lol.
The stones are not "precharged"; they need to be charged accordingly with the energies of the person who's going to wear them... it is a very complex work and wearing stones charged for another person might create huge problems for another one...
Great post Oceanne , you always have such great information. I have some infor on Chakras in my journal some where.
To have you chakras alligned is such an uplifting experience.
I have a huge assortment of tumbled and polished gem stones. Clear crystal has always attracted me. When I meditate I encircle myself with crystals. The results are amazing.
When I have a headache I hold a piece of crystal in the headache area and soon the headache has subsudied.
I use all of the stones in a laying position of the chakra's locations. I have found that one chakra unbalanced yes, can unblance many more.

Great post Rayne.
Chakra's are very interesting to me. I have used the tigers eye for the crown and thorat chakra's. There is a book on Chakra's that you might enjoy reading. Its called "Chakra's: Balance Your Body's Energy For Health & Harmony" by Patricia Mercier. The book is really good and gives a lot of detail that you might find helpful.
I have a large collection of gems and crystals all used for various reasons. Used for chakras, meditation, amulets, and other areas.
A pouch made for them carries a Bloodstone and a lock of hair from my boys and husband. This is something that has been used for protection and other areas.
Why thank you sister dear ! I think that for people that are just learning about how to balance them selves that this is a great place to start.
Yes that would be an excellent place to start. The book that I recommended can be found at the local library, amazon, or places like that. Its a really good book for the beginner. Oh drats where did I put my websites for chakras. Will see if I can find the ones that I have for beginners and the experienced alike.
this is containing to a bag of seven stones - mojo bag if you will
The Meanings of the colors:
Green- Love, Money
White- Peace, Protection, Tranquility
Red- Passion, Arguments
Orange- Luck
Yellow- Wisdom, Lessons
Brown- Objects, Gifts, Possessions
Black- Negative, Bad or Harmful

I try to keep my chakras in balance but Ive never used stones to do so...maybe ill check it out.
I do practice Chaos magicks,I wear some of the stones I use in my magicks. It depends on what I am doing that day. When they are not with me, they are protected.
I was wondering on how the chakra balancing necklaces and stones are working for you guys? I have been wanting to get some.
As a Reiki Master, I must say that definitely you will get ill if your chakras are all messed up. They all spin a certain way, at a certain pace. When you get hurt physically or emotionally or wounded in either in a bad way or whatever, it will stop the spinning chakras from going at their regular pace and illness can set in. And that is the spiritual reason for it......emotional wounds hurting us. In the medical field it is well known that old wounds can turn to something worse later on. And in the psychiatry field, it is known that emotional wounds can scar us on the inside and out. Out I say, because years of dis-ease will cause disease.
I dont know about the necklaces or anyhting but frequency is something that can help chakras..which leads me to belief that stones vibrating at matching hz could possibly aid in some manner.
I deal a lot with the stones. When using them with the chakras I have found to be able to keep a clear mind in a bad situation. At one time I wore a pouch with a tigers eye, quartz, and bloodstone to help protect myself against the many dangers that I was around at work. This is the one thing that helped me keep a level mind with people and myself. The one day that I didn't ware the pouch is the day that I got hurt. So I will say that keeping a balanced chakra and using the stones or anything else will help tremendously.
i practice reiki and i help others to open those chackras... as for myself, a friend of mine open mine with a crystal... he just let it move over my chackras and when they are opening, it moves like crazy in big circles...
you can feel the energy flowing...
i always say the only dumb question is one not asked and you never know till you ask so i'm asking so i will know. do you have to chant to open your chakras?
I think its more of just exposing yourself somehow to the frequency that will trigger it..so if you chant on key,then sure,why not..I have vids in my journal at different frequencies that are supposed to accomplish this.Repair dna and all that.
I believe some stones have certain qualities that could be considered special. e.g.
coal fuels fire. ;] That's special.
I have heard of this but never actually read up on the subject, I just find it hard to believe that different types of stone can affect you in a negative or positive way by targeting your chakras.

i do believe that these chakra points and the colors as well as certain sounds do help in aligning and balancing ones self.
i also do think it takes time and practice to achieve the right effect
Im going to venture a guess here,but I think by practice,it would mean learning to get your body into certain frequencies that correlate with the individual Chakras.
Not only do I believe in Chakras, but I regularly wear stone s for different purposes. It is a craft all of it's own. It is very enjoyable, and some of the stones are quite marvelous.
I have a question for you then..when you pick your stones,what are you looking for exactly? Other than what is recommended,any other reasons?
I am basically Level ! Reiki healer. I am working my way to Reiki Master, from my Mom. So yea, all this fascinates me.
Good post Oceanne. I have just started in it and find that many stones seem to be working for many things but I also feel when I am doing the wrong thing. I feel more weak and angry.
Gusion, if you are feeling weak or angry with it then maybe the stones might not work together and possibly need to change the combinations of stones or gems used with the chakra's. I have found from experience that some stones are said to work with certain chakra's but it depends on the person themself. Umm, I am venturing out here but here is a book that I have found very handy about chakra's.
Chakras: Balance Your Body's Energy For Health and Harmony by Patricia Mercer.
Thank you Cheetahcry,
I am a satanist and work with goeta so it stands a reason for some anger in some bad energy. I feed off others bad energy and it becomes my good. but I am trying something different. The things I practice works in its time, not on mine. so a little boost is what I am looking for. When I cant feed it makes me weak. I have so much to learn with it and sure it is like anything else, When one don't have details, it only makes things worse.
