This meditatiin works with colour and crystal through the seven major chakra system. Each chakra gives off its own unique colour signature, when a person is healthy and strong, the chakra will radiate a strong and vibrant colour in to the aura. If there is a serious physical, emotional, mental or spiritual imbalance some of the chakra colours will look impure, dim, or dirty and in some extreme cases the colour would be hardly visible at all.
This meditation works on re-balancing the colour and energy of the seven chakras, and so can be very energising especially if done reasonably often.
At this point make sure all your phones are switched off, and you are not going to be disturbed, because for about an hour you are able to put the rest of the world to one side and concentrate only upon your self!!!
Sit in a comfortable position, either on the floor or in a straight back chair, make sure the spine and neck are erect but not tense. When the base of the spine is higher than the knees it is better, as it tilts the pelvis forward which means that the spine stays naturally upright even when it is relaxed. In this way it is said that the psychic current is able to flow unimpeded from the base of the spine to the top of the head.
But I always feel that as long as you are comfortable , means you will get more pleasure from your meditation, its meant to enjoyed not endured.
Place the crystal you are going to work with on the floor in front of you in their correct order, begining from the left, ( I always follow this direction in everything I do, as I am a student of the shamanic path, and everything follows the direction of the sun across the sky) So from left to right, 1. first crystal/s to connect with base of spine, 'examples are' Red Jasper - Hematite - Black Obsidian, one or more of these work with the base chakra. 2. Sacral Chakra, situated just over the pubic bone at the base of the abdomen, Carnelian - Orange Citrine - Orange Calcite. 3. Solar Plexus chakra, situated over the navel, Amber - Tiger's Eye - Yellow Calcite. 4. Heart Chakra, I use two colours for the heart, ( Pink and Green) as it has two beats, each one diferent so each must give off a diferent colour, Rose Quartz - Pink Tourmaline - Rhodochrosite - Malachite - Peridot - Green Aventurine. 5. Throat Chakra, Aquamarine - Blue Lace Agate - Kyanite. 6. Brow Chakra (third eye) Lapis Lazuli - Sodalite - Blue Saphire. 7. Crown Chakra, situated at the top of the head, Amethyst - Rutile Quartz - Moonstone.
So now you are sitting comfortably with you crystal layout in front of you, remember you need only one or a combination of these stones, and these are just a few examples of the crystals you can use, there are many others.
Allow your eyes to close gently and of their own free will, this hapens naturally as you begin to relax, if you find it difficult at first, take two or three deep breaths and exhale slowly, and gently allow your breathing to return to a normal gentle rhythm, being aware of the sound as you breathe in and breathe out, send a comand to your mind to become quiet for an hour if possible. Just be aware of the inward and out ward breath of life, as you breathe in you take in energy, as you breathe out you release your own energy to be shared with all life.
In you minds eye, focus your thoughts on the chakra at the base of your spine, see it turning like a wheel, drawing in energy. See that energy as a vibrant red light, consciously draw upon that red light energy, and take the energy of your base chakra, also draw in the energy of the crystals, take it into that centre, use the breath to do it, as you breathe in the red ray and crystal energy are pulled into the base energy centre, filling your body with lifeforce energy, awakening your zest for life, your passion and enthusiasm, assisting you to live life to its fullest potential, to be healthy and strong so that you can apreciate all that life offers you. The red enrgy fills every cell of you body with vitality, it flows with the blood through your body to fill you with physical stamina. Spend five mins or so here on this chakra.
Now move your attention to the Sacral Chakra, now the energy you breathe turns to a vibrant Orange, pull the Orange ray and the energy of your Sacral Chakra Crystals, into this energy centre, again see in your mind a turning wheel of energy, glowing and pulsating with the orange ray. Feel the energy of the crystals and their colour vibration filling this centre with energy. The orange ray crystals will restore your courage and determination, bring equlibrium into your energy, balancing and rejuvenating your whole body system, ( it is especially good for women who have problems with periods or any other of the female conditions) but for males also it is energising and strengthening, as this chakra governs our whole re-productive area, our sexual passion is a vital part of our earhtly life, when it is active and healthy we enjoy life more. Spend about five mins on this chakra.
Now move your attention to the Solar Plexus Chakra, and see the colour change from Orange to Yellow, a bright vibrant sun yellow, as you breathe it in, sense the warmth of the sun, filling your abdomen with energy and vitality. This colour and the crystal energy has the power to be cleansing and protecting, giving you clarity of thought, to make decisions to accept challenges, and to succeed in all your endevours, to become the best you can be. Feel your whole body filling with light and crystal energy as you continue to berath in the colour and energy of the life giving sun yellow. Stay with this chakra for about five mins.
Now let your mind move to the Heart Chakra, Visualise a beautiful Pink Rose, an place in the heart centre, see the delicate pink petals opening filling your heart centre with love and apreciation, look at the long green stem that has two or three green leaves, allow the two colours and the crystal energy to dance like lovers through the heart centre, bringing healing and balance, and allowing you to open your sensitivity to express all the love that is within you. Love for those around you, love for your lifes work, and your life's pathway, and most of all love and apreciation for yourself. Continue to pull in the the two colours of green and pink, and the powerful crystal energy, so that your emotions may be healed and strengthened.
Spend about five mins on this chakra.
Now let us focus upon the Throat Chakra, and see the colour change to a beautiful sky blue, as you breathe in the colour blue and the crystal energy, visualise a blue mist circling your neck, and as you continue to breathe in and out, see the blue mist entering into the mouth covering your tongue, your teeth, your throat and glands, giving healing to the voice, the eyes, ears, nose. Try to sense the calming tranquil energy of both colour and crystal, this healing will help you to speak your truth and feelings, so many problems occur because we hold back the words we really want to say, maybe you hav ebeen afraid of rejectiin in the past, or maybe you believe that you have nothing to offer or that you are simply not worthy, well you are wrong, you are a very individual and unique person, your being here makes a difference, your contribution to life matters, allow yourself to believe in you! keep working on this chakra for about five mins.
Now as we move to the Brow Chakra, we see the colour and energy change from paler blue to deep indigo, imagine the colour of the night sky, as the stars just become visible, breathe in that universal colour and energy, open your inner vision so that your perception expands from this world to the unseen world, connecting your soul energy to its spiritual home. The colour and crystal energy will bring insight and intuition, and allow your mind to access a greater awareness of all things. We need clarity and guidance in this life, it is all there waiting for our inner vision to see clearly the path that lies ahead. Keep breathing the Indigo light and the crystal energy for about five mins.
Finally our attention moves to the Crown Chakra, sitting on top of the head. Here the colour changes to a beautiful violet flame, that protrudes upward from the crown, pointing towards the open universe. Breathe in the colour and crystal energy and see that flame expande and intensify, at its edge it turns to a white light, a symbolic representation of you as a spiritual being, experiencing material life for the greater expansion of the souls energy. The violet light and crystal energy brings Visualisation, purification and wisdom. See the colour flowing around you as the gentle integration of colour and crystal energy work to heal you on all levels of your being. Stay with this chakra, and continue to breath in the colour and crystal for about five mins.
Now visualise that your auric energy field is full of radiant white light, the light is strong enough to illuminate the darkest space. You are a beacon of light and colour, a living rainbow of energy. As you breathe in and out affirm to yourself, The light is within me, The light surrounds me, I am one with the light. Stay in this calm peaceful state for about another ten mins or more and allow yourself to accept the healing and the light energy that is around you.
When you are ready allow yourself time to drift gently back to full conscious awareness of your body and your surroundings.
Feel energised and ready to continue with life !!
