It works through the Crown chakra (Sahasrara), the seat of the bridge between individual consciousness and the wider field of awareness. Under Sun (Surya)'s influence, orients the power of focused intention, supports the illumination of hidden patterns, and amplifies both vitality and the clarity of purpose. Reach for it when navigating clarity, abundance, vitality.
