Sacral Chakra Activation: Crystals to Enhance Creativity and Passion

Orange Calcite is a solar plexus and sacral stone that revitalizes and energizes the body. It is one of the few stones in the mineral world that help circulate energies. So not only does it channel to two chakras, but it can help generate movement into the other five as well. 

This citrus-colored stone unites the heart and sacral for sexual empowerment. Its sacral healing allows you to feel comfortable in your own skin, love your uniqueness, and reconnect in intimate relationships. It can also foster inspiration, creativity, and the pursuit of purpose through the solar plexus. This is a stone to meditate with when you are feeling stuck, unmotivated, or depressed. 

Practice: If you’re feeling lethargic or uncertain about what to do next, meditate on Orange Calcite asking for its guidance and wisdom. Allow your mind to flow with ideas of tasks that need to be accomplished, creative projects that wish to be birthed, self-care practices needing to be implemented. 

Allow the energy of the Orange Calcite to help ignite your intuition to the most urgent need. Remember, resting is also a necessity so don’t be surprised if Orange Calcite urges you to rest in order to increase vital energy.

Sunstone sheds light on sulking spirits. Sunstone teaches us to say “No” without guilt, detaching ourselves from dependent relationships, and encouraging optimism and independence. Reflecting the nature of the Sun, this is a light and inspiring stone. Particularly useful for those dealing with depression or seasonal affective disorder. Its vibrant color serves as a reminder that magic exists to those who are open to seeing it. Find inspiration, joy, and the willingness to step out of your routine with Sunstone. 

Through the sacral and solar plexus chakras, Sunstone shatters the stubbornness of your mind and empowers your physical nature. It stimulates creative and passionate energies promoting freedom and expansion. Sunstone encourages you to be exactly who you are and radiate your personal source of power.

Practice: Set Sunstone bedside or in a sunny spot in your home you see every day. Just like the sun, Sunstone can act as a reason for why you wake up every morning. What person do you strive to be? What are you passionate about? Any statement about passion, potential, movement, or achievement can be set within Sunstone. Simply say your intention out loud every time you wake up to see Sunstone. Let it be the reminder of your purpose and personal meaning.

Carnelian embodies the fiery nature of our being; the passion, motivation, and desire we often stifle. This stone ignites the hearth of your soul, also known as the solar plexus, to create sparks of curiosity and ambition. It also opens the root chakra, backing up inspiration with the physical energy to pursue it.

Beyond passions, Carnelian overall brings life-force energy into the body. Any negative energy held within will be burned away to make space for the vitality of life to flow through. Carnelian is like the physical trainer of stones, giving you a boost and letting you know that you can do it.

Practice: New moon rituals hold a great space for Carnelian. Its igniting power symbolizes the ability to start anew at any time. On nights of a New Moon (if the sky is clear, the moon will appear to be completely dark), write down your intentions for the next month. Any desires, goals, or mantras that deal with creativity, new projects, or physical changes can be part of your list. 

Set Carnelian next to a non-flammable bowl. Read out loud the list, feel the power in your words, and set the pages on fire in the bowl. Carnelian will infuse into your ignited intentions and release them into new energy through the cleansing fire. (Please note, research appropriate materials to make sure your ritual is safe for you and any others involved.)

Mahogany Obsidian is a stone of strength, it fuels creative passion and sexuality. Removes limitations and negative blocks, allowing creativity to flow easily like the molten lava it’s born from. Mahogany Obsidian encourages us to embody our truest, most authentic selves. This incredible natural glass aids in decision-making by bolstering your inner confidence, this helps us communicate our deepest needs with ease. A wonderful companion stone for anyone who feels too timid, or needs to balance their over-aggression.

Mahogany Obsidian is tied to the lower 3 Chakras, and is especially beneficial for grounding the Root Chakra. It brings us closer to not only the earth, but our own physical body which can be so often neglected on the path of crystal healing. Feeling more present in our physical form will lead to a natural enhancement in not only our perceived confidence but also our ability to interact positively with the physical world around us!

Practice: An excellent way to be intentional with your crystals is to match your cleansing and charging to the energy of the crystal itself. Though some crystals may not be safe to cleanse on the Earth, Mahogany Obsidian is the perfect candidate for some Earth cleansing TLC. 

Before burial, meditate with your crystal while holding it in your right hand, envisioning its energy like deep roots reaching to the center of Earth itself. It is most traditional to bury your desired crystal directly in the soil, particularly in soil which is blossoming with plant life. If you’re concerned you may not be able to recover your stones, burying them fully in a jar or pot of dirt will work as well. Be sure to mark the location where you’ve planted your Mahogany Obsidian, and return to it after allowing it to absorb the Earth’s energy overnight. Rinse with water and soap to remove excess soil, and take time to bask in the refreshed energy of both you and your crystal.
