The Chakra System

The word chakra is derived from the Sanskrit word meaning wheel.

If we were able to see the chakras (as many psychics, in fact, do) we would observe a wheel of energy continuously revolving or rotating. Clairvoyants perceive chakras as colourful wheels or flowers with a hub in the center.

The chakras begin at the base of the spine and finish at the top of the head.

Each chakra vibrates or rotates at a different speed. The root or base chakra rotates at the slowest speed, where the crown chakra at the highest speed.

Each chakra is stimulated by its own and complimentary colour.

The size and brightness of the wheels vary with individual development, physical condition, energy levels, disease, or stress.

If the chakras are not balanced, or if the energies are blocked, the basic life force will be slowed down. The individual may feel restless, tired, out of sorts, or depressed. Not only will physical bodily functions be affected, but the thought processes and the mind may also be affected. A negative attitude, fear, doubt, etc. may preoccupy the individual.

A constant balance between the chakras promotes health and a sense of well being.
