CHAKRA SIX (THIRD EYE)

Chakra six is located at your carotid plexus nerve ganglion. This is between your eyebrows and just a little above them. The elemental correspondence here is light because it is here that your conscious meets you unconscious and you start to become aware, were you begin to truly see and begin to become truly aware.  The color here is indigo and the root Sanskrit word means “to know, to command” and this is where you begin to perceive and learn to translate and process all visual input. You learn to use your ESP (that little voice that tells you to do or not to do something)  and where where you refine your imagination.

You discover that you have a greater access to the Universal “well of wisdom” and learn to be comfortable accepting information based on faith and intuition rather than on charts and graphs. You realize that intuition just is...there is no right or wrong, no logical or illogical.

If maturation, healing and growth have occurred you know and understand the balance of all things; light and dark, yin and yang, want and need. You can see, without prejudice, things as they really are. You see beyond the limits of either / or and you see that you have infinite choices.

You know you are out of balance if you are too influenced by the psychic realm. If your energy is too high you come across as disconnected or spacey. If you energy is too low, you will be narrow minded, uncomfortable with challenges and have tunnel vision.

At chakra six you will be able to access other information and see how everything comes from ancient wisdom. The important thing here in how well you see, not just what you see. You can look as well as see. As you open here you realize how much you truly do see.

When you are in balance you will use your new information and innate wisdom to raise your vibrations in order to be able to make decisions with your new mind-stream and informed visualizations. With them you will be able to make a positive and informed choices that will have an impact on your surroundings rather than making choices from fear and ego. Because of this ability and view point you uplift the quality of life for yourself and others. You know you are in balance when you can process and translate you visual and intuitive information and use it correctly and effectively.

The goal of your sixth chakra is to suspend your personal perceptions so that you are able to allow yourself to to envision those of another in order to understand what others see. It is also the goal here to realize self clarity so that you are closer to being completely conscious and totally aware.

CHAKRA FIVE (THROAT)

Chakra five is located at your pharyngeal plexus and is your place of self expression. Its elemental correspondence is ether but here I will use sound because the vocal apparatus is in its pervue. The color is bright blue. The Sanskrit root word means to purify.

The job here is communication; both verbal and nonverbal. At this level you begin to exercise your creativity in your communication skills. This include effective listening. Effective listening is to consciously and with awareness, pay attention to what the other person is saying to you, to really hear them. You also realize that each person comes at life from their own personal experiences of life and that their experiences are not the same as yours.

This is where you realize that communication is actually an extension of consciousness. You use sound, rhythm and vibrations to form words. Communication is a connecting principal that makes life as you know it possible. Just as your body uses DNA and nerve impulses, and your brain uses chemicals and hormones to operate the microcosm of your body,  broadcast waves join the global community into a functioning unit of information. Correct and conscious communication, both within and without, is crucial to your well being and understanding of life.

When you are out of balance in your fifth chakra you will talk too much or too little, you will not listen to others, you seem arrogant and self righteous and you have no use for the opinions of  those around you.

Words are your most powerful tools. With the great power to use them comes the great responsibility of that use. If you give  out incorrect information, you can do damage. Do you remember the gossip game from when you were a child? Someone would whisper a statement to the person next to them and the participants would repeat what they thought they heard and the results were usually funny. Not so in life so keep this in mind and think before you speak.

When you are in balance here, you are considered thoughtful in your communications, you are able to express your needs and desires without being demeaning or whiny. You can express your truth without hurting others and without shame or fear. You know you are in balance when you can truly hear another person and express your truth without judgment or shame.

The goal of chakra five is to communicate ideas and abstract concepts in a way that is easily understood by others; to give out information that can manifest creations on a physical plane so to give order to your universe.

TO RECAP;
located at your throat, your pharyngeal plexus (C3-7)
it is your self expression

you ability to communicate your core values
it is the bridge that connects your intellect with your senses

CHAKRA FOUR (HEART)

Chakra four  is located at your heart. Just as your cardiac plexus nerve ganglion feeds your physical heart, your forth chakra feeds you energetic/spiritual heart. The elemental correspondence here is air. This is because movement from physicality and manifestation into more esoteric areas of spirit occur here at the midpoint in your chakra spectrum.

This is the point where your lower three (1,2 &3) chakras rise to meet your upper three (5,6 &7) chakras to become tempered and balanced. Here is where you achieve a feeling of wholeness and balance. With this balance a radiance begins to shines out to all around you. This radiance creates a  permanence and magnifies it so that it permeates all existence.

The color here is green and the Sanskrit root-word means “sound made without any 2 things striking”, “unstruck” “fresh” “clean”

The job of your fourth chakra is to create the binding force of love. This comes from the logical progression of mass at chakra 1 + movement at chakra 2 = attraction at chakra 3 that creates love. Not a love driven by need, want or manipulation, but the free, joyous acceptance of your self and of all things. Your ability to see people moving in harmony with one another is reflected in this type of love. This love can allow others to grow at their own rate, it then allows you to reach out to others without losing your center or judging others by your standards. When you can see all occurrences as your “next best thing”through the unconditional love of the fourth chakra, you will feel bliss.

If you are not in balance here you will be judgmental and manipulative, you will attempt to control others and the subjugation of another's truth is important to you. You want to make/force them to see things your way.

When you can learn to take all things less seriously, just know yourself without letting another take your power, you will begin to see the difference between “control of” and “control over.” Your balance here means the tempering of your lower chakras with the unconditional love of chakra four.  You will begin seeing changes in beautiful ways. You know you are in balance when you no longer feel the pull of the lower chakras and realize you create your own reality and that you can and do influence others.

The goal of chakra four is to realize unconditional love for others and your self, to exercise tolerance and balance within your body, mind, spirit system, to realize the divine paradox that what seems very small is really very large and what seems to be very large is really very small, and to allow things to be what they are.

RECAP;
located at your heart-cardiac plexus (T1-5) ,is your bridge between imminent and transcendent spirit and love
is your ability to share love and life with others.

PHYSICALITY: Blood pressure and circulatory system, hands, arms and shoulders, it is your Electromagnetic Field Generator, and your immune system

ISSUES: consideration of others, empathy for others, the linking of your intellectual and spiritual selves, how to use your will, your ability to direct love to yourself and to others, your inner peace, your ability to give and receive love

BLOCKED BY : grief

UNBLOCKED BY: accepting  that love is energy that is always around you and is never lost. This is  because it is always born again as new loves.

CHAKRA THREE (SOLAR PLEXUS)

Chakra three is located between your sternum and your navel, at your solar plexus and it is called the seat of your will. This is where your body handles combustion and metabolism. The elemental correspondence is fire. Fire transforms matter (chakra 1) and movement (chakra2) to action energy and power (new state) in chakra three. The color that vibrates here is a bright sunny yellow and the Sanskrit word means lustrous gem.

The job of this chakra is to develop your power to stand by your convictions and forge unique states of existence. It does this because of the how it acts on chakras 1 and 2 to raise their energies into new dimensions. This action causes changes within you. Much like wood (matter), when acted upon by movement/heat,  is transformed into a new substance, in this case ash.

 Here is where your inner critic lives and it will often times yell at you, making you either doubt your self or feel very confident. Here is your self worth, your self reliance. This is where your seat of personal power is developed. Your focus changes once again from just you and one other to become more open to the opinions and points of view of others. It is at this level you also begin examine different power concepts and you learn the difference between the “power to” and the “power over”.

If you are out of balance here you may be overly sensitive about perceived reactions of others, you may appear indifferent or cold, you may feel you need the opinions of others to support your ideas. You may be over critical of yourself; feel inadequate, have a feeling of self loathing or you may feel unworthy of love. Your inner self is attentive and believes everything both positive and negative, it has no filters so your body reacts instantly to all criticism, both good and bad. This is not good for you.

When you are in balance  in chakra three, you can accept the responsibilities that are truly yours, you are confident in your own actions and abilities, you can chose how you maintain your course of action and you do NOT need the approval of others. You have courage and strength to be truly who and what you are. You can act without overpowering others or allowing them to overpower you.

The goal here is to create a new understanding of the viewpoints of others, collect new information that will bring you dawning enlightenment and shifting paradigms. Here is where you learn the importance of balance. You become aware of the larger patterns of universal consciousness. You become aware of  the how the combining of your mind and action that are driven by your conscious aware choices create your will. You will be able to stop undesired actions and create new and better ones by making better choices.

TO RECAP:
located between your sternum and navel at your solar plexus ( T5-T9 Solar Plexus)
It is your solar power, your uniqueness,  your I AM, the seat of your will

PHYSICALITY:
Pancreas
controls your digestive system, your middle spine, assimilation and muscles.

ISSUES:
personal power (where do you allow it to be?) Your sense of your place in the world, your self confidence, your self esteem and your ability to stand by your convictions.

BLOCKED BY: shame and disappointment in your self

UNBLOCKED BY:  accepting your shortcomings and forgiving yourself

CHAKRA TWO (SACRAL

Chakra two is located between your navel and your internal reproductive organs organs. It corresponds to the sacral vertebrae nerve ganglion at your sacral plexus. Your sciatic nerve is attached here. This is your center of motion, your sea of life.

Water is the element of chakra two because all of your liquid functions are its job. Circulation, urinary elimination, sexuality and reproduction. This is also the seat of your emotions. The color of this Chakra is orange. The name of this Chakra comes form the Sanskrit word meaning “to sweeten”.

The job of this Chakra is to move you from the survival mode in Chakra 1 to acknowledging other people in your life. You became independent as you developed your personal strength and became self sufficient. Now you understand that within your “Self” there must be an awareness of others. This awareness is now on new levels of balancing separateness with being with others. You want to meet others to stimulate questions. Questions create the desire to learn; Desire to learn creates action; Action creates vitality and growth through movement; Movement creates new levels of power and love.

An adult is about  70% water. That makes you a tidal being. Emotions move like water so this Chakra has subtle qualities of its own. Desires ebb and flow, creating a duality that is important for motivating movement and change. They create the longing to learn, to reach out to absorb and share knowledge.

When you are out of balance here your desires become needs born of pain, tension and estrangement. This comes from parts of you that you have let go or repressed. This causes you to look outside yourself for something that will make you stop feeling or start feeling something. You push away the support of others and turn toward an outside method/substance and become attached to the method hoping that next time it will work (like smoking, sex, drugs, drinking)

Flexibility and fluidity in your desires is good. Remember that the FORM of the desire is not as important as the FORCE of the desire. Force is the root of passion; Passion is the growth toward power and understanding.

Because desires move like water, when they are blocked, they build up pressure and they will manifest in another way. If they are thwarted, you may become ill or develop and addiction or act out in a dangerous way.

When you are balanced here, you know that pleasure is Creator given and is essential to insuring the health and harmony of the body with NO shame or guilt.

The goal of Chakra two is movement. Pleasure is the root of desire and the rejuvenator of Spirit. It also   acts as the healer of personal and cultural relationships. Desire is the seed of movement and they build on each other to keep us whole and balanced. We know we are balanced when we feel that “All is well, situation resolved.” and we can turn our attention to other things.

PHYSICALITY;

accepting that you make mistakes and not allowing them to cloud your mind or poison your energy and FORGIVE (the other person AND yourself)
