Sanskrit translation: Sahasrara means thousand-petaled.
Sahasrara, is the most common Sanskrit name for the Crown chakra.
Color: Violet - reflects the Crown chakra’s link to spirituality and enlightenment.
Location: At the top of the head, or slightly above – like a crown, radiating upward.
This energetic centre controls our connection to spirit, and our sense of universal consciousness, wisdom, unity, and self-knowledge.
This chakra is the top of the chakra ladder and is thought to be where our spirits enter our bodies at birth and leave when we die.
Sahasrara means thousands in Sanskrit and gets its name from the lotus flower with a thousand petals. Each of these petals represents a different part of our being, for example our thoughts emotions, and actions – when the flower petals are open it connects us to the divine consciousness, universal balance of the body, mind, and spirit.
When your crown chakra is balanced, you will feel as if everything is connected, and able to look beyond yourself and act selflessly.
