The dynamic geometry that is at the heart of the seventh chakra symbol is the inspiration for this attractive pendant.
The symbol is a many-petaled lotus flower - which itself is a symbol of purity, renewal and beauty. The distinctive pointed petals overlap each other, in turn creating smaller and smaller leaves all radiating outward from the flower's center. The cut-out technique beautifully complements the ordered complexity of the pattern.
The design is a true interpretation of the chakra symbol, without modifying it or embellishing it, pure and simple in polished sterling silver.
The chakras are seen as energy "gateways" in the body, points along the spine where the physical body connects to the astral body. For this reason, some Wiccans use the chakras to bring more energy and depth to their rituals and rites.
During meditation, a yogi or practitioner will concentrate on each of the seven chakras, progressing from the lowest to the uppermost. The uppermost, the Crown as it is known, is the seventh and is located at the top of the head. It enables a very high level of consciousness beyond our own personal human experience and connects us to the universal and Divine. The Sanskrit name for the seventh chakra is Sahasrara, which means 'thousand petaled'.
