Chakra - the seven energy centres, one stone at a time

For a body that feels out of sync somewhere, even if you can't quite say where.

Chakra comes from the Sanskrit word for wheel, referring to seven energy centres believed to run along the spine, from the base to the crown of the head. Each one is associated with a different part of physical, emotional and spiritual life - the root with security, the sacral with creativity, the solar plexus with confidence, the heart with love, the throat with communication, the third eye with intuition, and the crown with connection to something larger than yourself.

The tradition is old, tracing back through Hindu and Buddhist texts written well over two thousand years ago, long before crystal work adopted it as a framework. Pairing a specific stone with each centre is a more recent practice, built on the idea that a crystal's colour and properties can support the energy that chakra governs - amethyst's violet for the crown, citrine's gold for the solar plexus, and so on down the spine.

This collection covers both: full seven-stone sets for working through all seven centres in order, and individual crystals for anyone who wants to focus on just the one that feels most relevant right now.

Sheri chooses every piece by hand, cleanses it, and charges it before it's packed here on the Gold Coast.

Orgonite — Crystal and metal

Not a stone, and we won't pretend otherwise.

Orgonite is a made object: crystals and metal shavings suspended in cured resin. It's based on the work of Wilhelm Reich, an Austrian psychoanalyst who in the 1930s and 40s theorised a form of energy he called orgone, and built devices layering organic and inorganic material to interact with it. The modern craft version dates to the 1990s.

There's no scientific consensus behind it, and we'd rather say so than imply one. What's true is that each piece is cast individually, so the internal pattern of metal and crystal is never quite repeated, and people keep them near electronics or in workspaces.

If you're drawn to it, it's worth having. If you want a natural mineral, look at black tourmaline or shungite instead.
