Chakras are points of great energy for one’s aura.
The word chakra itself is Sanskrit for wheel or disk. According to East Indian philosophy, man possesses seven major Chakras or psychic centers on his body. Through our Chakras, we transmit and receive physical, emotional, and spiritual energy.
These are the seven main chakras, the colors assciated with each one of them, and their energy focus:

Single Chakra Therapy
When you want to work on a specific Chakra, place a gemstone or strand of gemstones on it and keep them there from 3-20 minutes. You may use clear optical quality quartz for all of your chakras; however, here are the stones that others recommend on each chakra.
1. Root/Base Chakra: Black Onyx/Obsidian
2. Sex/Navel Chakra: Carnelian
3. Stomach/Solar Plexus Chakra: Citrine
4. Heart Chakra: Rose Quartz/Ruby
5. Throat Chakra: Indigo (translucent Sodalight)/Purple Rainbow Fluorite
6. Brow/Third Eye Chakra: Amethyst/Aquamarine/Lapis Lazuli/Clear Quartz
7. Crown Chakra: Amethyst/Clear Quartz
If a stone ever feels uncomfortable, remove it immediately and replace it with a stone that fits you better.
