CHAKRAS
The word ‘chakra‘ is Sanskrit for ‘wheel‘ or ‘disk‘ and signifies one of seven basic energy centers in the body. Each of these centers correlates to major nerves branching forth from the spinal column.
Chakras also correlate to levels of consciousness, archetypal elements, developmental stages of life, colors, sounds, body functions, and more.

1. BASE CHAKRA:
Physical identity, oriented to self-preservation
Located at the base of the spine, this chakra forms our foundation. It represents the element “earth“, and is therefore related to our survival instincts, and to our sense of grounding and connection to our bodies and the physical plane. Ideally this chakra brings us health, prosperity, security, and dynamic presence.
2. HARA CHAKRA:
Emotional identity, oriented to self-gratification
The second chakra, located in the abdomen, lower back, and sexual organs, is related to the element “water“, and to emotions and sexuality. It connects us to others through feeling, desire, sensation, and movement. Ideally this chakra brings us fluidity and grace, depth of feeling, sexual fulfillment, and the ability to accept change.
3. SOLAR PLEXUS CHAKRA:
Ego identity, oriented to self-definition
4. HEART CHAKRA:
Social identity, oriented to self-acceptance
This chakra is called the heart chakra and is the middle chakra in a system of seven. It represents the element “air“. It is related to love and is the integrator of opposites in the psyche: mind and body, male and female, persona and shadow, ego and unity. A healthy fourth chakra allows us to love deeply, feel compassion, have a deep sense of peace and justifiedness.
5. THROAT CHAKRA:
Creative identity, oriented to self-expression
6. BROW CHAKRA:
Archetypal identity, oriented to self-reflection
This chakra is known as the brow chakra or third eye justify. It represents the element “light“. It is related to the act of seeing, both physically and intuitively. As such it opens our psychic faculties and our understanding of archetypal levels. When healthy it allows us to see clearly, in effect, letting us “see the big picture.“
7. CROWN CHAKRA:
Universal identity, oriented to self-knowledge
This is the crown chakra that relates to consciousness as pure awareness. It refers to the element “thought“. It is our connection to the greater world beyond, to a timeless, spaceless place of all-knowing. When developed, this chakra brings us knowledge, wisdom, understanding, spiritual connection, and bliss.
