Do you know which chakra balancing crystal colours to choose when doing a chakra cleanse, balance or healing?
The simplest methods of crystal healing and chakra balancing combine the colour of stones with the appropriate chakra. The colour of the crystal will always indicate its main energy function, so it is useful to learn the basic properties of the crystal colours and their names…
And it is fun!
Chakra Balancing Crystal Colours And Names
RED (Base Chakra)
Garnets
This colour stimulates, activates and energizes, but also grounds and focuses. Associated crystals are garnet, jasper and ruby.
ORANGE (Sacral Chakra)
Calcite
A mix of red and yellow – orange combines their activating and organising roles in boosting energy flows or treating blockages. Related crystals include dark citrine, orange calcite, carnelian, topaz and copper.
YELLOW (Solar Plexus)
Amber
The vibrant colour yellow is concerned with strengthening and preserving the body’s systems (e.g. nervous, digestive and immune). The crystals to choose from include amber, ritulated quartz, tiger’s eye, citrine quartz and iron pyrites.
GREEN (Throat Chakra)
Malachite
As the mid-spectrum colour, green acts to balance our emotions and relationships, encouraging growth in all areas of life. Heart stones include bloodstone, green aventurine, malachite, amazonite, moss agate, peridot and emerald.
BLUE (Throat Chakra)
Aquamarine

PINK
Rose Quartz
A blend of both red and white, pink is associated with the base and heart chakras, and works to restore underlying balance. Choose from pink stones like rose quartz, rhodonite and rhodocrosite.

Ametrine
These are various, and their actions reflect their colour combinations. Rainbow inclusions can be found in many transparent crystals including quartz. Other stones are azurite-malachite, hawk’s eye, opal, labradorite and ametrine.
