Medium Laura.. the way I was trained there are no "root stones"; there are stones that are multidimensional that can work in many ways and all are right for all chakras under specific circumstances.

Triner... I don't look at charts. Sometimes I may look up in a book after I have dowsed to see why that stone may have come up. But I choose purely using my intuition... no mind, no ego, just 3 spirits communicating (the client, me and the stone spirit) to co-create healing.
