The human body is comprised of multiple intricate layers, including the physical, astral, and spiritual bodies. Within the astral body lies a sophisticated network of energy centers known as chakras.

Bloodstone is an intense healing stone used to cleanse and realign the lower chakras with the heart. It is conducive to balancing the total body in order to overcome any distress or anxiety associated with the re-alignment of these energies. Bloodstone is particularly stimulating to the Heart Chakra and the Root Chakra (see below heart chakra meaning for root chakra meaning)

Green stimulates The Heart Chakra (Anahata) which means in Sanskrit: Unhurt, Unstruck and Unbeaten.  It is our (4th chakra) located in the center of our chest, close to our physical heart and is considered the most crucial. The Heart Chakra symbol has 12 petals, signifying the 12 sounds that are produced by its rotation. Its color is green, reminiscent of the combination of fire from below and sky from above, and features two triangles (six-pointed star or hexagram) encased in a circle, representing the dualities of preferences and aversions. It represents love, self-love, and governs our relationships.

(1st Chakra) Red and Brown stimulate the Root - Base Chakra (Muladhara), which means base, foundation, and root support. Located at the base of the spine or groin area, it is the link between the physical world and our internal energetic system. Its symbol is a four red petal lotus flower, with a square and a down-facing triangle. It provides the foundation on which we build our life - representing safety, security, and stability. (see below heart chakra meaning for root chakra meaning).

 The Heart Chakra is our ‘Center Chakra’, with three chakras above and three below. It is the bridge between the lower and upper chakras, balancing the material and spiritual worlds and facilitating our emotional and physical well-being. Pure love opens the Heart Chakra, allowing us to receive, forgive and give love unconditionally.  This chakra is an essential component of our overall health, as it helps us to balance our emotions, cultivate a deeper sense of self-awareness, and build meaningful relationships with others.

 The Heart Chakra, is responsible for regulating our interactions with the external world, providing us with the ability to maintain a healthy balance between detachment and involvement. By fostering our decision-making processes, it allows us to determine what we accept or reject, and harmonizes our inner self with our surroundings. This chakra is responsible for the storage and distribution of Prana, the life force energy that flows through our bodies, and for maintaining the air element in our system, which is key to our ability to stay alive and thrive.

 

 

 

T H E   R O O T  -  B A S E   C H A K R A

The Base or Root Chakra is the most vital energy center in the human body. It is the foundation on which the physical chakra system is based. Balancing the Root - Base Chakra creates a solid starting point for opening the chakras above. In order to fully balance the other chakras in the body, you must heal the root chakra first. Our chakra system is always seeking harmony, if the root chakra is out of balance, then it will be difficult to address any of the other chakras and their potential imbalances. Yes, you can isolate and work with each chakra individually but it’s important to work with the seven main chakras as a whole system, along with the individual chakra..

 

The Root Chakra contains the Kundalini “serpent” and its powerful energy. While difficult to activate, when awakened, this energy manifests as a warm and electrifying spiral, uncoiling upwards, through and around the spine and stimulating each chakra along its path. It then emerges from the crown chakra at the top of the head. Although unattainable for most and definitely not for novices; this experience if ever achieved, brings about a profound awakening and a heightened understanding of the world we live in and beyond.  For those of us that do get to experience this, it is a life-changing step on the path to spiritual growth and self-discovery.

 

P U R P O S E

 The Root - Base Chakra keeps our Chakra system rooted to the earth and is the gateway for ‘Life Force’ energy to enter our body.  It is the core for all Chakra Centers and their proper functions, giving us strength and vitality as well as our physical and emotional needs of survival and self-preservation. The Root - Base Chakra acts as a stabilizing force and is essential for maintaining our overall well-being. It governs crucial aspects such as safety, survival, sex, and stability, providing a solid foundation for your physical and emotional state.

The historian, Pliny the Elder, declared the sun could be viewed in a Bloodstone as in a mirror, and that solar eclipses became visible within one. The legends of Heliotrope grew to include the stone’s ability to turn the sun itself blood-red and to cause thunder, lightning, rain, and tempest. The Roman magician, Damigeron, in the 2nd century, reiterated these properties, adding that it could also predict future events by producing rain and "audible oracles." 

H I S T O R Y

Bloodstone was known in antiquity as Heliotrope, the Sun Stone. From the Greek helios, meaning "sun," and trepein, "to attract," Heliotrope signified “sun-turning,” and legends were attributed to this stone for the belief that when placed in the rays of the setting sun, or immersed in water, it turned the reflection of the sun to blood-red.

Bloodstone was treasured not only as a talisman of good health and long life but was reputed to bring its owner respect, good fortune, riches, and fame.

Its use for healing, and its connection to blood and detoxification of the organs, date back five thousand years to Mesopotamia. In many cultures, Heliotrope was dipped in cold water and placed on the body to aid circulation and transfer the power of the sun to prevent injury or disease, stop the flow of blood, or cure any wound. Its coagulant effect was renowned, and for this reason, ancient warriors often carried Heliotrope as an amulet of protection and courage, as well as its practical applications. Simply looking at a Bloodstone was believed to prevent eye diseases.

 

C L E A N S I N G   &   C H A R G I N G :

Cleanse = Eliminates Stagnant Energy.

Charging = Crystals need to be Charged in order to Replenish their Energy, just like a battery! 

Crystals & Gemstones function similarly to batteries, emitting positive energy at a specific frequency into our bodies, resulting sometimes in a tingling sensation. Crystals absorb and convert negative energy, but they have to use their own energy to create a protective shield, which is necessary for deflecting or repelling negativity. When we use a crystal, it will eventually run out of energy and need to be recharged, just like a battery. In its depleted state, the crystal may have also absorbed negative energy, necessitating cleansing and then recharging it.

 

C L E A N S E

Cleanse by running under Spring water, using Sage Smoke, Intention or place on a bowl of Earth mixed with light salt. Sunlight and Moonlight can be used as well. Always follow your intuition.

 C H A R G E

Charge by placing on or near Selenite, Quartz Crystal or Smokey Quartz. You can also charge by placing your crystals in Sunlight for 1 - 3 hours or Overnight during a Full Moon - place your crystals on a table by a window or on a windowsill.

 

P R O G R A M M I N G

Programming your Crystals & Gemstones involves setting your intentions and infusing the Crystal with your desired energy. To program your Crystal, find a quiet space, hold the Crystal in your hand, and visualize your intentions. Focus on the qualities you wish to enhance or the goals you want to manifest. Feel the Crystal’s energy merging with your purposes, and state your affirmations or intentions aloud. The vibrational energy emitted by spoken words holds great power, as do our thoughts, our crystals are tools that amplify and direct our desires and wishes.
