Introduction to Chakras

Introduction to Chakras by Dr. Ava Cadell

The word Chakra means wheel in the Sanskrit language and according to Tantric beliefs, there are seven energy wheels centered in our body.  These are the Chakras and they are interconnected to light, sound, and color.  Understanding the Chakras allows us to understand the relationship between our consciousness and our physical body.  If you’ve ever felt a sudden lump in your throat, butterflies in your stomach, or an aching heart, then you have experienced your Chakras trying to communicate with you.  They are giving you signals that you need to pay attention to, otherwise they will become unbalanced and can cause emotional or even physical discomfort. Here are the seven Chakras, their location, color, and energy source

1. 1st Chakra
   Root located in the perineum (which is the strip between the rosebud/anus and the yoni/vagina or the anus jewels/testicles).  The Root Chakra is red in color and is the energy center to our basic instinct of survival.  The Root grounds us in the physical world.
2. 2nd Chakra
   Sacral located in the sexual organs.  The Sacral Chakra is orange and its energy source is connected to our reproductive capacity and sexual desire.
3. 3rd Chakra
   Solar Plexus located in the abdomen at the navel.  Also known as the Seat of Emotions is yellow and is our energy center for power which includes anger and laughter.
4. 4th Chakra
   Heart, green in color, represents our ability to give and receive love and compassion.
5. 5th Chakra
   The throat Chakra is sky blue.  It energizes communication and our ability to listen
6. 6th Chakra
   Known as the Third Eye and located in the center of the forehead, its color is indigo.  It is connected to imagination and psychic energy.
7. 7th Chakra
   Crown on the top of the head is deep violet.  This is our spiritual energy that connects us to the Universe.
