Chakra Necklaces

Charkra Necklace Series

Chakra NECKLACES

With the belief that rituals create a doorway to engagement and being present in the world, I have been creating these necklaces that coordinate with each of the seven chakras.

For me the necklaces serve as a ritual of intention, a meditation on the energy of our being. They are made with crocheted silk, gemstone beads, leather, Mother-of-Pearl button closures and Thai Buddha amulets.

CHAKRAS

I envision chakras as energy points on a conduit. When energy isn't flowing and connecting along this conduit, it can grow stagnant. With intention we can take notice of what energy is not in flow and nurture it back into alignment. When in alignment, the chakras create an energy line of communication that runs through us connecting all our subtle energy so that we can live powerfully grounded and in equilibrium. The necklaces are a reminder, a way to focus meditative energy where you are feeling disconnected.

The gemstone beads are selected to coordinate/represent a particular chakra. What energy needs your attention?

• Root— red, for grounding to the earth

• Sacral— orange, for creativity and flow

• Solar Plexus— yellow, for power and transformation

• Heart— green, for compassion and love

• Throat— blue, for expression and communication

• Brow— indigo, for intuition and wisdom

• Crown— violet, for spirituality and connection to the universe

Thai AMULETS

I fell in love with the culture in Thailand and the wonderful mix of Buddhist and animistic beliefs. In the countryside, almost every village has a temple. There is a long history of the temple keepers giving amulets to the people who support the them. With thousands of temples, there are many more thousands of amulets, so while not rare, they are the embodiment of a belief in rituals. Rituals which create a doorway to engagement and being present in the world.
