As we dive into the month of March, it's time to focus on the throat chakra – the center of communication, self-expression, and authenticity.
The throat chakra (Vishudda) is the fifth chakra and it is located in the region of the throat, jaw, neck, and mouth. It is responsible for the thyroid gland, hormone flow and the function of all matters of the throat and head. It controls the flow of energy between the lower parts of the body and the head. This chakra's color is blue and its element is ether or space.
When our throat chakra is in balance we speak openly, expressing ourselves authentically. An overactive throat chakra can lead to over-stimulation, arrogance and a tendency to dominate conversations, speaking before thinking. When this chakra is deficient, it can lead to us having difficulty expressing our thoughts, experiencing social anxiety and hiding our opinions and desires from others.
What better way to awaken and align our throat chakra than with the help of Aquamarine, Amazonite, Blue Apatite, and Labradorite? Let's explore how these powerful crystals can support our journey of speaking our truth and finding our voice.
