An outline of a person sitting in the yoga Lotus Pose is the setting for seven colorful cubic zirconia gemstones. The stones represent the seven chakras and like the chakras are aligned vertically up and down the figure's spine, from the root chakra at the base to the crown chakra at the top of your head. The stones are set in the order of the spectrum with red being the root chakra.
The Lotus Pose, also called Padmasana, positions the feet and legs such that they represent the petals of a lotus flower. This pose is thought to both strengthen the muscles, prevent disease, and aid in one's focus and clarity of mind.
Chakras are seen as energy "gateways" in the body and are points where the astral body connects to the physical body. Energy enters through the crown chakra, flowing freely through the other energy centers. Each chakra has a unique function and energy, and each is said to possess its own aura. Some traditions of Wicca and Witchcraft have adopted chakras into their practice, incorporating the opening and closing of the chakras into their rituals.
