Chakra means Wheel in Sanskrit. The
body has spinning energy centers that
look like spinning wheels and are called,
Chakras. As with all things in our reality,
they are linked to sound, light and color.
To heal, is to bring the chakras into
alignment and balance. The following is a
description of the seven traditional
chakras:

Base: Kundalini: Root Chakra:

Located at the base of the spine. Contains
the primary 8 cells that have all of the
knowledge of creation and remain the only
cells in your body that do not change in
your lifetime. It grounds us in the physical
world. The Color is RED.

Spleen: Located just beneath the navel,

and related to our sexual and reproductive
capacity. Blockage manifests as emotional
problems or sexual guilt. The color is
ORANGE.

Solar Plexis: Seat of Emotions. Gives

us a sense of personal power in the world.
Blockage manifests as anger or a sense of
victimization. The color is YELLOW.

2
Heart Chakra: Blockage can manifest as
immune system or heart problems, or a lack of
compassion. The Color is GREEN.

Throat: Tied to creativity and

communication. Feels pressure when you are
not communicating your emotions properly.
The color is BLUE.

Third Eye: Pineal Gland: Is a physical eye

with the capabilities of looking upward. The
color is INDIGO.

Crown: Connects you with message from

higher realms. Can be experienced as a
pressure on the top of the head. The color is
PURPLE or VIOLET.

 Sound and the Chakras
Ancient Indian philosophy regards sound, namely Om, as the essence of the universe.
These basic vibrations are used in chanting, and can be studied in their relevance to
chakras. According to the diagram, a chakra corresponds with a musical note on a scale.
These frequencies have an effect on our feelings that can alter chemical reactions in the
body.
A listener's experience is unique, and in turn interpretations vary. This is what makes art
and creation so wonderful.

Kundalini Energy

Stretching back into the corridors of time, Asian

religions have spoken of a mystical force called
the 'Kundalini'.

The rise of the kundalini is linked with a warm

liquidly magnetic energy when it rises up the
spine.

Releasing the Kundalini energy too quickly can

have serious emotional effects on a person. One
should not attempt to open this thrust of energy
if one is not in a balanced psychologically. This is
not for those with manic depression or bi-polar
disorder.

Kundalini is described as a coiled serpent at the

base of the spine. The coiled and dormant
'feminine' energy, refers to the vast potential of
psychic energy contained within us all.

Kundalini can be described as a great reservoir of

creative energy at the base of the spine.
