Crystals to work with in combination with the Chakras

Amber Amber is not really a crystal but a fossilized resin that is usually golden to yellow-brown in color. It is a stone for connection of the conscious self to universal perfection. It helps in the art of manifestation. It stimulates the intellect and opens the crown chakra. It also transmutes the energy of physical vitality toward the activation of unconditional love.	Pyrite This super-protector against negative energies also helps to inspire the universal energies to activate the nourishing energies of the body, assisting one in the attainment of the ultimate state of physical perfection. It symbolizes the warmth and lasting presence of the sun and promotes the recall of beautiful memories of love and friendship, but also assists one in seeing behind facades, promoting understanding of that which lies beneath words and actions.	Citrine Among its many benefits (too many to list here), it is one of the two crystals that does not need cleansing. it activates, opens, and energizes the navel and solar plexus chakras, directing, via personal power, creativity, and intelligent decisiveness, the energy necessary to enhance the physical body. It stimulates both mental focus and endurance.
