Crown Chakra
The opening chakra — where the self meets what is larger than the self.
About the Crown Chakra
Function: Connection to the divine, transcendence, unity.
The crown chakra is the opening to what is beyond individual personality. When it is functional, meaning is present; life feels connected to something larger. When it is blocked, a spiritual flatness sets in — nothing matters, everything is mechanical. Its crystals are the clear and violet ones: amethyst, clear quartz, selenite, golden healer quartz, lepidolite.
Signs it may be blocked
- Nihilism or spiritual flatness
- Disconnection from any sense of meaning
- Chronic sense that 'this cannot be all'
- Difficulty in prayer, meditation, or silence

Practice
Sit upright. Place an amethyst or clear quartz on the crown of the head (it will balance there). Do nothing for twenty minutes. This chakra does not want to be manipulated. It wants to be left alone and trusted.
