Alexandrite is a beryllium, Aluminium Oxide. It is actually a Chrysoberyl which belongs to the Oxide Class of minerals. Alexandrite is named for the former czar of Russia, Alexander II, and was first discovered in the Ural Mountains of Russia, supposedly on the day of his birth. Alexandrite has since been found in Russia, Australia, Brazil, India, Madagascar and Myanmar. Synthetic corundum spiked with trace elements that yield an alexandrite-like colour change are sold as alexandrite on the gemstone market. These stones have a red-violet, near-amethyst colour in incandescent light and a blue-violet colour in daylight. They are far cheaper than natural alexandrites, some of the rarest and most expensive gemstones in the world.
Chromium gives alexandrite its colour, and while in most minerals, a trace element like chromium would provide only one colour to the mineral, in alexandrite, it gives it two. Colouring agents depend on the wavelength of light and the chemical bonds in the crystal to determine the colour they will cause. An element like copper, in normal light, can cause a green colour in malachite and blue colour in azurite; it all depends on the character of the chemical bonding. In a single specimen of alexandrite, the chromium is in such a balanced situation that the specimen's colour depends on the nature of light that hits the crystal. If the light is natural sunlight or fluorescent light, the crystal will be green; however, if the light is incandescent from a standard indoor light bulb, then the crystal will appear red.

The chakras are the body's internal energy centres, and are aligned vertically near the spine. Energy enters the body through the head (heaven) and the base (earth). The seven chakras are vortex points where these forces mingle, with each producing a distinctive energy pattern. The purpose of these chakras is to absorb, transform and distribute the body's internal energy, known by terms such as prana, life force or chi. Specific organs and body parts are associated with each chakra, as well as corresponding behavioural, emotional and personality patterns. It is important to note that the chakras are in constant interplay, and cannot really be separated.
There have two extra chakras discovered recently; the Earth Star Chakra and the Soul Star Chakra, I have included a brief description of these in the page.
Human beings are not just the physical body. You have seven auric bodies. These seven unseen bodies are known as energy bodies, energy layers or auras. The seven non physical bodies aren't separate from the physical body, they are all interconnected with each other. The health of any of these bodies contributes toward the overall physical, mental, emotional and spiritual wellbeing of a person.
These energy bodies are affected by all aspects of your lifestyle. The energy that feeds them comes from outside and inside. Everything in your life influences these bodies. The health of these energy bodies depends on the amount and quality of prana or chi flowing through them which is generated in the Kundalini Line and Chakras.
When any one of the auric bodies is not working properly, it affects the other bodies and the physical body, as each body relies on the others to gather and distribute energy. read more
