  Understanding The 7 Body Chakras.
 

The chakras are the amazing metaphysical power houses of the human body. You can learn to locate them, heal them and use them for psychic power, better health and happiness. The mystical powers of the Third Eye can help you with ESP, telepathy and astral travelling. The Kundalini or coiled serpent chakra can help you with immense physical energy and the Solar plexus chakra can help you with manifesting your desired objects.

The chakras are the energy centres of the body. You can imagine them as small rotating vortices of energy which can be observed as circles or cones. These cones draw in Pranic or Chi energy from air around you and send this, as light energy, to the body centres. The frequency or speed of the vibration of these chakras, can be observed as various colours. This has been proven by scientific means, using Radionics equipment.

Each of your seven chakras within the body is indicated by a different colour. It also represents an area of the body and an auric field beyond the body. The chakras respond to and react to your emotions, mental attitudes, physical and spiritual well being.

Those of you who have been to an Acupuncturist will know that the human body is made up of many energy lines. Where energy lines in the body cross each other 21 times, a major chakra is formed. The chakra system is normally divided into three sections the Upper; crown, third eye, throat, the Mid; heart, the Lower; solar plexus, pelvic and base.

All chakras need to be working equally efficiently for you to have true spiritual, mental, emotional and physical good health. There are seven basic chakras or major chakras within the physical body these are.

 
 

7th. Base chakra at perineum (felt at spine base) also known as the Kundalini or sleeping serpent. Colour red. Affects the adrenal system, the spine, the kidneys and represents your individual life force and energy.

6th. Pelvic chakra at pelvis area Colour orange. Affects the gonads, reproductive system, influences your sexuality, artistry and creativity.

5th. Solar Plexus chakra at stomach area Colour yellow. Affects the nervous system, emotions, influences your will power issues, (can make you overly submissive or overly dominant).

4th. Heart chakra at chest area Colours green and pink. Affects heart, lungs, circulation, thymus gland, influences your personal love and unconditional love issues.

3rd. Throat chakra at throat area Colour Blue. Affects thyroid gland, vocal and bronchial areas, influences your communication issues.

2nd. Third eye chakra at brow area colour purple, affects pituitary gland, eyes, ears, brain, influences your psychic abilities.

1st. Crown chakra at top of head. Colour white. Affects pineal gland, upper brain, influences your connection with Higher Spiritual aspects and God.

 

In the Eastern religions, each chakra may be represented by a flowering lotus with varied numbers of petals. The Crown is often referred to as the Thousand Petalled Lotus.

  7 Major Chakras.
 
 

Locations and colours of front and rear chakra openings.

1. Crown-White
2. Third Eye-Purple
3. Throat-Sky Blue
4. Heart Green/Pink
5. Solar Plexus -Yellow
6. Pelvic-Orange
7. Base-Red

 

Most of these chakras have a front and rear entrance/exit. The front opening of the chakra represents your intent to fulfil an action, eg; at the front of the throat, a wish to communicate lovingly to others. While the rear chakra entrance/exit at the back of the neck, represents your will to do this action, eg; to actually have the courage to speak openly about your feelings for others.

Often the front chakra is open and warm while the rear chakra may be closed and cool, through underuse. The crown and Kundalini/base chakras have only one opening/exit, but these may be semi closed or damaged, resulting in low life energy at the Base Chakra or limited communication with the God force at the Crown Chakra.

Your chakras are normally felt with the minor chakras in the hands (the fingertips and the secondary chakras in the centre of the palms of your hands), as being hot, warm or cold.

 
 

A comfortably hot/warm chakra usually indicates an opened or relatively unblocked chakra. A cold or cool chakra usually indicates an underused chakra or blocked chakra. An over heated chakra, may indicate an unhealthy overuse of the chakra. Some people do not feel either heat or cold, but instead feel the chakra as being weak, average or overly strong in vibration.

When a chakra is blocked or damaged from emotional, mental or physical interference, sickness can develop over a period of time, in that corresponding part of the body. This is sometimes observed in meditation as a grey area around the chakra or a deformed chakra outline eg. a coldness and deformity in the heart chakra (located at the centre of your chest area) may represent Emotional loss, such as divorce from a partner, which may result in physical heart disease in middle or old age, if not dealt with appropriately, when younger.

When someone injures you, whether it is done physically (by striking you), emotionally (by hurting your feelings) or mentally (by frightening you) cracks, breaks, shrinkage or deformity can occur in the chakras.

Some of this damage may even be carried over from past life incidents, such as being speared by an enemy through the solar plexus chakra, in battle and result in stomach ulcers in this current life.

 
  An Exercise To Feel Hand Chakra Points.
 

You may like to pre-record this exercise and then replay it when relaxed.

Meditate for ten minutes.

1. Mentally ask your Spiritual Guides to help you in this exercise.

2. Ask for your palm chakras and fingertip chakras to become activated and feel a corresponding warmth in the centre of the palms of your hands and tingling in your fingertips.

3. Place your palms close together, without actually touching them and feel the magnetic pull of the palm chakras, and the warmth of the chakras.

4. Draw your palms slowly away a few centimetres and feel the energy from your hands, like a light glue-like membrane being stretched. Now bring your palms in again and feel the membrane contracting. (Some people describe it as being similar to pulling toffee).

5. Now concentrate on your right hand fingertips and again without actually touching your left hand, feel the chakra energy from your palms, as warmth, coolness or tingling.

6. Draw circles in the air with your right index finger, close to your left palm and fingertips and see if you can feel the movement, with your eyes closed. Now change hands and see if your right palm is more sensitive than your left. Practice this exercise with other people, if you have the chance to do so. Some will feel the energies, some will not.

7. Thank Spirit for helping you.

Note* Some students will have a stronger energy in these chakras than others.

By practicing this exercise regularly, your hands will become more energised and more sensitive to other's vibrations.

An Exercise To Feel The 7 Chakra Centres

 

You may like to pre-record this exercise on a cassette tape and then replay it when relaxed.

Take note which chakras are open, closed, or overly heated. (Use the following chart to record your results).

Meditate for ten minutes.

1. Stand in front of a full-length mirror. Ask Spirit to help you with this exercise. Remember you do not actually touch your body. Allow your fingertips and palm chakras to feel the vibration of your chakras, just a few centimetres away from your body.

2. Firstly locate the crown chakra. It is a warm/energised spot at the very top of the head. If it feels cold/weak it may be blocked, unopened or damaged. This will need to be cleansed for greater contact with Higher Spiritual Forces. Remember this area has only one chakra opening.

3. Now locate the chakra between the eyebrows, the Third Eye Chakra. Again feel the strength and warmth of this chakra. If it is weak and needs cleansing, your Psychic abilities may be impaired. This area also has a rear chakra at the immediate back of the head, in line with this front chakra. If the front is warm and the back cool, this indicates a desire (intent) to experience psychic abilities such as seeing auras, spirit contact etc but your will or energy to do so is weak. So the rear chakra will need to be cleansed and opened gently to align it with the front chakra, to overcome this problem.

4. Then locate the chakra at the mid throat area which represents your communication abilities.

Again feel the strength and warmth of this chakra. If it is weak and needs cleansing, your communication abilities may be impaired. This area also has a rear chakra at the immediate back of the neck, in line with this front chakra. If the front is warm and the back cool, this indicates a desire (intent) to speak the truth and express your opinions, but your will to do so is weak. So the rear chakra will need to be cleansed and opened gently to align it with the front chakra, to overcome this problem.

5. Now locate the Heart chakra, between your breasts or centre of your chest region.

Again feel the strength and warmth of this chakra. If it is weak and needs cleansing, your loving abilities may be impaired. This area also has a rear chakra at the immediate back of the body, in line with this front chakra. If the front is warm and the back cool, this indicates a desire (intent) to conditionally and unconditionally love others, but your will to do so is weak. So the rear chakra will need to be cleansed and opened gently to align it with the front chakra, to overcome this problem.

6. Then locate the chakra at the Solar Plexus region, just above the navel.

Again feel the strength and warmth of this chakra. If it is weak and needs cleansing, your personal power may be impaired. This area also has a rear chakra at your immediate back of the body, in line with this front chakra. If the front is warm and the back cool, this indicates a desire (intent) to have your own autonomy and make your own decisions, but your will to do so is weak. So the rear chakra will need to be cleansed and opened gently to align it with the front chakra, to overcome this problem.

Note. If the rear Solar Plexus chakra is very warm this also indicates a good potential healer. The Solar Plexus chakra is known as the Healer's Chakra.

7. Now locate the chakras in the Pelvic and lower back areas. These Chakras represent creativity, both sexually and artistically.

Again feel the strength and warmth of this chakra. If it is weak and needs cleansing, your personal creativity or sexuality may be impaired. This area also has a rear chakra at the immediate back of the body, in line with this front chakra. If the front is warm and the back cool, this indicates a desire (intent) to be creative or sexually expressive, but your will to do so is weak. So the rear chakra will need to be cleansed and opened gently to align it with the front chakra, to overcome this problem.

8. Finally locate the Kundalini or Base Chakra (actually one chakra opening at the perineum, but you can also feel it at the Base of the spine). Again feel the strength and warmth of this chakra. If it is weak and needs cleansing, your personal life energy may be impaired. The Kundalini also represents the coiled serpent in Eastern tradition. Spiritual power can rise from this region to the crown. Always raise this energy slowly and gently, as it can be disorienting to raise it too quickly or strongly.

Practice this exercise on other people if possible, you will feel different vibrations in each person's chakras, no two are identical.

Note: If the Kundalini energy is awakened too quickly, you will most likely experience a Spontaneous Spiritual Awakening.

  Gems To Use For Chakra Work
 

Certain gems and crystals can partly assist in cleansing and clearing blocked or damaged chakras, as their vibration is similar to the chakra area they work upon. These gems can be placed gently upon the corresponding physical part of the body, front and rear, to increase your will and intent.

Visualise the corresponding colour also entering this area, cleaning and purifying. eg. Place a rose quartz on the heart region front and rear and visualise pink light entering your heart region, helping to heal emotional problems of conditional and unconditional love. Conditional Love being the love and affection you have for your family and friends who you know, interact with and who return your Love and Unconditional Love being the love you have for Humanity as a whole, expecting no return of Love.

Any of the following gems can be used to aid in the healing of chakras. When choosing gemstones for healing work, relax and think of the tasks that you will use them for and allow your intuitive skills to lead you to the right stones. You can also run your palm chakras and fingertip chakras lightly over a tray of stones and feel which gem has the strongest vibration and seems most right for your purpose.

It is important to cleanse your stones before using them for healing. They can be placed in a container of dry sea salt for several days, to eliminate any negative energies that may have been accumulated by them in transit. Similarly, some people place the gems for a day in salty water (be careful of the type of stone used, as the water and salt may have a corrosive effect). Others place their gems out in the moonlight at full moon to be cleansed overnight.

Cleanse your stones regularly, (weekly or monthly) as your stones will accumulate much negativity, if used for healing purposes. For serious illnesses, cleanse your stones each time they are used.

To program a gemstone. After cleansing the stone, hold it in your right hand (left, if predominantly left-handed), ask your Spiritual Guides and the Divine Source to 'Infuse this stone with Healing light'. Also, promise that you will always use it for the Highest intent.

 
  Suggested Gemstones For Chakra Cleansing And Healing
 

Base chakra: ruby, red garnet, red carnelian or red jasper.

Pelvic chakra: orange carnelian, orange topaz or orange jasper.

Solar Plexus chakra: Citrine, yellow topaz.

Heart chakra: emerald, Aventurine, jade, rose quartz. The heart chakra is both green for Conditional Love, and pink for Unconditional Love.

Throat chakra: sapphire, lapis lazuli.

Third Eye chakra: amethyst.

Crown chakra: clear quartz crystal, diamond.

  A Musical Exercise
 

Musical notes can also affect healing and opening of the chakra system. The musical note C represents the Base chakra; D note represents the Pelvic chakra; E note represents the Solar Plexus chakra; F note represents the Heart chakra; G note represents the Throat chakra; A note represents the Third Eye chakra and B note represents the Crown chakra. If you have a piano or other musical instrument play these notes and see if your chakras begins to vibrate in sympathy with its corresponding musical note.

Chanting also helps to open up and cleanse the chakras. eg. Lower Chakras (Base to Pelvic) respond to HO, HO, HO. Mid chakras (Solar Plexus and Heart) to EE, EE, A. Upper Chakras (Throat to Crown) to AH, AH, WA. This is an North American Indian Chant. OM the universal word, is also often chanted to help open up and cleanse all the seven major chakras.

There are now music tapes and discs available at your music store, that can be played and meditated to, in order to aid with chakra cleansing, opening and healing.

Recite sounds above, three times and feel and note the areas in the body, affected by the sounds. If you have a CD/tape of chakra music, play it and recognise where in the chakra system and physical body, you are most affected by its sound and vibration. You might like to experiment with your favourite music and discover where in your body it affects you.

 
 

Earth Chakras

 

Spiritually it is important to believe that the Earth (Gaia) is a living entity in her own right and that we have a symbiotic (interdependent) relationship with her. What affects her, affects us and vice versa.

There are a number of chakra or energy centres upon the Earth which also correspond to the seven major chakras in the human body. These are :

  Crown: Mt. Shasta, North America.
  Third Eye: Macchu Picchu, Peru.
  Throat: Uluru (Ayres Rock), Australia.
  Heart: Glastonbury and Avebury, United Kingdom.
  Solar Plexus: Great Pyramid, Egypt.
  Pelvic: Gobi Desert, Mongolia.
  Base Chakra: Mt. Cook, New Zealand.
 

Many people make pilgrimages to these special spiritual centres, to experience the heightened vibrations and to meditate. If you live close to one of these chakra centres we would encourage you to visit this area and note your responses.

  Summary Of Lesson One
 

There are seven major chakras that affect your connection with Spirit, Psychic Powers, Communication, Feelings of Love, Willpower Issues, Sexual and Artistic Abilities and Life Force. When they are underused, damaged or overused they can cause physical, mental and emotional problems within the body and disconnection from your psychic abilities and the God force. By becoming aware of these blocks and using a cleansing meditation, while working with gemstones, you can alleviate many of these problems from your life.
