Using Crystal Grids For A Chakra Alignment

What Is A Chakra Crystal Grid

Using Crystal Grids For A Chakra Alignment, A chakra crystal grid, is a grid set up with stones associated to each of the 7 major chakra points. One grid will be setup up for each chakra point, with the associated stones for each of those chakra points. Using these chakra crystal grids is a powerful way to balance and clear your chakras.

Basics Of A Crystal Grid

There are really no hard and fast rules when it comes to crystal grids, it’s best to use your own intuition and work with what you feel guided to do with the crystals. There may be many different guides on how best to do them, but for me personally, I find the most powerful healing and manifesting comes when you go with your gut feelings and what feels right for you as an individual. This blog is a guide only and you can feel free to add your own variations. You might like to include a crystal grid of part of a more complex ritual or you may keep it super simple. Some people like to do them on a cloth, board or piece of paper with Sacred Geometry on them, as they believe this increases the power of the grid. Others like to include pieces of nature, like leaves, shells or flowers in their grid. In fact, this is how I started out when I didn’t have alot of crystals, I would incorporate elements of nature into my grids. So please don’t let a lack of crystals stop you!

Many people pick the stones they use based on the properties of the individual crystals that are aligned with what they would like to manifest. Others will intuitively choose what stones to work with and later look into the crystals’ properties. If you don’t have a lot to choose from, don’t worry. You can still work with what you’ve got, it’s the setting of your own intentions that is most powerful here. The crystals work with your own inner magic & power, as well as their own metaphysical properties. They can be even more powerful when people come together to create them. It can be a wonderful group activity that can bring in positive energy at workshops, events or celebrations.

Crystal grids, like many crystal rituals, amplify your intentions. Intentions are the most important aspect of creating the grid since the goal of the grid is to manifest said intention. Choose something clear, positive, and felt deep within your heart. It should be about you, not others. Many people choose to write down multiple goals related to the intention since a crystal grid is a spectacular moment for focused health and manifestation.

Crystal grids are incredibly magical and powerful ways to manifest your dreams and intentions.

A crystal grid is powerful because of the combined energies of the crystals that you use, the way you lay them out, and the intentions that you set. In simple terms, a crystal grid is a special arrangement of crystals, stones and other nature elements laid out with intention to manifest a specific desire.

There are no real hard rules when it comes to creating your Crystal grid. It’s best to let your intuition guide you and work with what your heart feels called to. Some people like to use cloth or wood with sacred geometry and mystical designs on them, others like to include elements from nature like flowers and leaves and twigs and herbs, some people choose their stones based on the specific properties of the individual crystals and how they relate to each other, but again there is no wrong way to put together your Crystal grid.

If you have some manifesting to do and goals to work on, it’s certainly worth exploring the supernatural universe of a crystal grid. By consolidating your intentions with the power of sacred geometry and precious crystals, you can turn the energy behind your desire up!

Crystal grids can be channeled to make good vibes ideal for your sacred space, alter area, a study space, or a workplace. Regardless of whether your intentions are centered around wealth and achievement, living your best life, discovering harmony and tranquility, or keeping up protection and security, the crystals can help you align your energy.

What is a Crystal Grid?

Crystal grids are communities of crystals living together to amplify each other. They strengthen themselves by evoking the mantra of, power in numbers.

Sacred geometric patterns house crystals to create a unique synergy through a specific vibrational blueprint. Each grid has its own energetic footprint and charges a harmonic resonance in its orbit.

Patterns are energetic visuals that can be absorbed and emulated. We look to natures designs, sacred geometry and forms to model our energy and behavior. Beautiful patterns with crystals release a palpable frequency and energetic vibration we can absorb. Changing the pattern of your environment and energy field can have the power to transform you and your space.

Cleansing Your Crystals

Due to their energetic nature, crystals hold on to energy patterns with which they come in contact. By the time your crystals have made their way to you, they have been in many hands and places. This is why it is important to cleanse your crystals. I recommend cleansing them as soon as you bring them home, and then cleansing them at least weekly, or more frequently for those you use daily. There are several methods for cleansing crystals:

Smoke

Light a bundle of dragons blood, cedar, lavender, or sweetgrass, and blow out the flame. Then hold the crystals in the stream of smoke to cleanse them. (I use a combination of these four herbs.) You can also cleanse them in the smoke from incense, such as Nag Champa sticks.

Quartz Cluster Or Geode

If you have a large cluster or geode made of a quartz stone, such as amethyst or clear quartz, you can place your smaller crystals in the cavity for 24 hours to cleanse them.

Selenite

Selenite helps to cleanse and charge your crystals, so putting your crystals on a selenite slab or in a selenite bowl will help to cleanse your crystal of any unwanted energy.

Energy

If you have some type of energy healing ability (such as Reiki), you can cleanse the crystals using that energy. As a Reiki master, I do this by holding the crystals in my giving (dominant) hand and sending Reiki energy to them.

Charging & Programming Your Crystals

After cleansing, you need to charge your crystals. Charging puts energy back into the crystals so they can continue to function at their highest level. You should charge your crystals every time you cleanse them. Programming your
crystals involves placing intention into them for the specific task you’d like them to complete. This can help the crystal work more effectively, so do this every time you cleanse and charge them.

You can use several methods for these purposes. Consider the following ideas.

To charge your crystals in nature, you can place them outside in the sunlight or moonlight for 6 to 12
hours. You can also charge your crystals with visualization. Hold the crystal or crystals in your giving (dominant) hand. Close your eyes and visualize white light coming down from the universe, entering through your crown chakra, traveling down through each of your chakras, then into your arm and hand, and then from your hand into the crystal. Do this for about 10 minutes. Or you can place them on a selenite slab or in a selenite bowl to charge up your crystals.

To program the crystal once it has been charged, repeat the visualization process described, but this time, focus on the type of energy you’d like the crystal to have. And visualize your intentions being absorbed by the crystal.

What Are The Chakras

The word chakra is a Sanskrit word meaning wheel. It is a wheel-like spinning vortex that interpenetrates the physical body, with the outer ends of each vortex forming a specific layer of the auric field. The whirling circular motion forms a cavity or vacuum in the center that draws in anything it encounters on its particular vibrational level. It is then processed and returned to the auric field. The major chakras of the human body are the seven chakras that are aligned along the spinal column. Secondary chakras of importance are located in the palms of the hands, the soles of the feet, and at major joints in the arms and legs.
For the people of antiquity – Egyptians, Chinese, Hindus, Greeks, Romans, and aboriginals of many lands – the chakras were an integrated part of daily lives. As these ancient civilizations were conquered, vast libraries of knowledge were destroyed. Only a few remnants of their information on the chakra system have survived – either through the preservation of ancient texts by sacred priesthoods, or orally from generation to generation, as in the traditions of many aboriginal peoples.

In any study of the anatomy of the aura it is important to understand the significance of the chakra system. The chakras exist on all levels of the aura and serve as linking mechanisms between the auric field and the physical body as well as linking mechanisms between the different levels of the auric field itself.

It is usually believed that the three lower chakras correlate to basic primary needs – those of survival, procreation, and will – whereas the four higher chakras are concerned with our psychological makeup -defining love, communication, and knowledge, and connection with the spiritual realms.
