✨ Crystals to Support the Chakras: Major and Minor Energy Centers

Crystals have been used for thousands of years as energetic allies to support healing, clarity, and spiritual growth. Each crystal carries its own vibrational frequency, which can help align, open, or balance the energy centers of the body—commonly known as chakras.
