I read that chakra’s relate to energy points. What impact do they have
on the physical being?
By Gloria Bieber of Life Portraits There are seven main chakras
in our body. These energy centers are aligned in an ascending column from
the base of the spine to the top of the head. Each chakra is associated with
a certain color, function and distinguishing characteristic. Chakras are
analyzed based on the individual shape and vibrancy. Round, circular chakras
denote a balanced energy system, while non-circular or blurred chakras show
an imbalance in your aura centers. The seven chakras aligned in our bodies
provide insight on the following areas of our lives:
First Chakra: Root (Red) - This chakra is the energy of the physical
plane and material reality. It is the centre of manifestation and the place
from which passion flows; the source of power and ego development.
Second Chakra: Navel (Orange) - The colour of this chakra reflects
creativity, sociability, emotional life and sexuality. This chakra is the
position from which one reaches out, expands and relates to others.
Third Chakra: Solar Plexus (Yellow) - This chakra rules mental
activity and is the centre of your ego and personal power. It regulates the
life force in the body, giving energy to your dreams and goals, allowing you
to take action.
Fourth Chakra: Heart (Green) - This is the centre of teaching and
healing, the chakra of self respect and love, as well as the meeting place
for the mind, body and spirit. Balance and a strong connection to nature is
found here.
Fifth Chakra: Throat (Blue) - This chakra governs the ability to
express ideas and to speak your truth clearly. The throat is all about clear
communication, inspiration and artistic expression.
Sixth Chakra: Third Eye (Violet) - This centre above the eyebrow is
the seat of intuition, spiritual will, connecting ideas and developing a
“picture” of the world. It is the idealistic place representing your
imagination and desires.
Seventh Chakra: Crown (White) - Inner knowledge, enlightenment,
connection with higher planes of consciousness and spiritual truth are
seated in the crown chakra. White is the perfect merging of all colours.
