Crown Chakra Crystals, Affirmations & Yoga Poses

crown chakra crystals

There are seven chakras that emanate subtle energy in your body and make up your overall vibration. These chakras are energy centers and are susceptible to the environments we surround ourselves in as well as our internal world – our thoughts and feelings. 

Sometimes, our chakras become blocked and require spiritual cleaning. In these circumstances, we can visit energy healers, reiki practitioners, or do specific yoga poses to help open them back up. Additionally, crystals are another way we can recalibrate our vibration. 

Below is an in-depth guide to the crown chakra and crystals that can be used to help bring you back into alignment and tap into universal energy.

Crown Chakra Meaning 

The crown chakra is the seventh chakra located at the top of the head and is associated with the element of thought. This energy center connects us with the divine and gives us access to higher states of consciousness. When our crown chakra is healthy and balanced, we can see beyond ourselves and have a deep understanding of how everything is connected. 

Its Sanskrit name “Sahasrara” is translated as “thousand petals”. The complete opening of all the petals represents the balance between body, mind, and spirit.

Crown Chakra Color

The crown chakra is commonly symbolized by the color, white. In some cases, it can be represented as shades of violet. The auric color of crown chakra energy can also be seen as glowing white, clear light, or gold. It develops when a person has tapped into higher consciousness, beyond the mastery of the sixth chakra, the third eye chakra.

Crown Chakra Opening Symptoms

When the crown chakra is open and balanced, the self is no longer ruled by the ego, and we have a more positive outlook on life. There is a deep knowing that everything will work out because the person fully understands that they are in control of their own destiny. An open crown chakra can control thoughts and feelings – it has the power to eradicate self-limiting beliefs.

Symptoms of a blocked crown chakra can include: 

  • Confusion
  • Apathy and disassociation from the world
  • Desire to oversleep
  • Inability to focus
  • Hyper spiritualization (heavily focused on being “spiritual”, clinging to spirituality for identity)
  • Poor mental functioning or brain fog
  • Fatigue
  • Chronic headaches
  • Depression
  • Poor coordination
  • Sensitivity to light and sound
  • Emotional instability

Since the crown chakra represents the highest level of spiritual awareness and enlightenment, it is usually the last to open, although it can spontaneously be ignited. You may feel tingling or electric shocks in the head accompanied by dizziness, drowsiness, and nausea. 

Symptoms that your crown chakra is opening include:

  • Drastic changes in sleep patterns
  • Vivid dreams
  • Higher sense of intuition
  • Psychic abilities such as clairaudience, clairvoyance, clairsentience. 
  • Being hyper-aware of yourself and your place in the universal flow. 
  • Being able to separate your energy from others and holding your vibration in all external environments.

Crown Chakra Affirmations & Yoga Poses

Ultimately, aligning your crown chakra is an inside job. Doing your inner work of reflecting on your thoughts and feelings and becoming aware of when you are operating in ego can help open this chakra. Crown chakra affirmations that encourage you to think and speak more positively can work effectively to open your crown chakra along with meditation and yoga.
