Re: "best" crown chakra stone

Amethyst is one of the best:

"Amethyst activates and balances your Crown Chakra.

Amethyst is the premier spiritual stone, providing purifying, healing, and protective energies to help clear, open, and balance the Crown Chakra. Amethyst connects the physical plane with the higher realms, pulling the high frequency vibrations into the Crown Chakra, through the Third-Eye, for processing by the rest of the chakras. Many work with Amethyst for it's protective bubble of light that is activated when one holds or wears this stone. Working with Amethyst to clear the Crown Chakra can create a sense of completeness and belonging, setting the stage for future development.

Located at the very top and center of the head, the Crown Chakra is known as the seat of higher consciousness and cosmic awareness, and is our connection to our own divinity. It is usually wide-open at birth, closing up during early childhood, to be developed during adulthood. The Crown Chakra is connected to the Ketheric layer of the aura (spiritual body), and sends energy to the pituitary gland to be distributed to the brain and nervous system. The Crown Chakra usually becomes blocked from negative experiences with organized religion, and this blockages severly stunts one's spiritual growth. Activating and balancing your Crown Chakra can help you to discover your greater purpose in this lifetime.

Amethyst's highly spiritual energies can be used with the Crown Chakra, during meditation, to gain a deeper understanding of the universe, and one's place within it. Meditating with Amethyst on the Crown Chakra can bring higher awareness and a connection to the Divine. Physically, Amethyst can help to balance out brain and nerve disorders, and to correct disorders of coordination. Amethyst's calming energies can also be felt through the Crown Chakra, bringing a sense of peace, and a knowledge of the Divine Perfection of the Universe, which can contribute to significant spiritual development."
