Introduction

The word chakra is a Sanskrit word meaning wheel or disk.

The chakras are seen psychically as spinning wheels of light andcolor. They are swirling junctions of life force energy.

Chakras are energy vortexes located throughout our body which

regulate the flow of energy through our energy system. The

chakras receive life force energy, integrate it and transmit it

throughout the body. They form the connecting channel between

mind and body, spirit and matter and past and future.

The seven major chakras are located along the spine in ourEtheric Body which is not visible to the ordinary eye. The Etheric

Body, or Subtle Body, is the nonphysical body which overlays our

physical body.

Unbalanced chakras can cause imbalances in the physical body.

This disharmonious energy causes an insufficient flow of energy,

which causes dis-ease in the physical body.

Our emotions, our ability to connect with others and our physicalhealth are reflected in the condition of each chakra. Our thoughts,

emotions and actions can either block or activate the chakras. The

functioning of the chakras mirror how we choose to respond to

conditions in our life. We open and close our chakras when we

decide what to think and what to feel.

Root Chakra

The Root Chakra is located at the perineum between the anus and

the sex organs. The color of this chakra is red. The parts of the

body affected by this chakra are the lymph system, skeleton

system (teeth and bones), the prostate gland in men, the sacral

plexus, the bladder and elimination system, and the lower

extremities (legs - feet, ankles , etc.). Also the nose, since it is theorgan of the sense of smell, and associated with survival. The

endocrine gland associated with this chakra is the adrenal glands.

This chakra represents security, survival, trust, the relationship

with money, home, job. The ability to be grounded, to be present

in the here and now. The ability to allow one's self to be

nourished, in the sense of allowing one's Inner Being to be

satisfied. This chakra also reflects a person's connection with

their mother, and with Mother Earth. How the person feels aboutbeing on the earth and their connection with the physical body.

The Root Chakra channels the earth's energy up to our higher

chakra centers and helps to ground us on the physical plane. The

7/28/2019 Chakras 1

8/27

more we ground ourselves the greater chance we have of making

our dreams real and developing into the people we would like to

become. When we lose our connection to the earth, we cut

ourselves off from the healing source of Mother Earth. We

disconnect ourselves from our ability to lovingly care for andnourish ourselves as well as to provide the physical comforts we

need. When we become disconnected, we become one of life's

victims.

The dysfunctional archetype of the Root Chakra is the Victim.

The victim feels helpless, stuck in a state of fear, with no sense of

empowerment. Being a victim is paralyzing on the psyche and the

body. In order to survive both emotionally and physically, it is

essential to ground these feelings and to reconnect with the earth.

Many people may not realize that they carry traces of the victim

mentality within their personality, but it may emerge during times

of stress or crisis. If they were to stop and experience the feelings

they have about life they may be surprised at the depths of the

anger, fear, resentment, and frustration they carry inside them.

The healthy archetype of the Root Chakra is the Mother. The

Mother represents our ability to nourish and look after the life

force within us with care, sensitivity, and vigilance. Integrating

this archetype is essential to our development, because sheteaches us how to take care of ourselves and to respect our needs.

She helps us integrate the feminine aspects of our personality so

that we can develop our capacity to love - love ourselves, love all

people, love life. As we develop the Mother within ourselves, we

7/28/2019 Chakras 1

9/27

stop projecting our needs onto the world around us so that we are

able to look after ourselves.

Grounding is essential for balancing the Root Chakra. One way to

do this is to imagine roots coming out of your Root Chakra andthe soles of your feet going deep into the earth. Imagine yourself

being securely attached to Mother Earth, absorbing her loving

energy through these roots.

There are many ways to balance our chakras. Many people use

crystals such as Ruby, Bloodstone, Smoky Quartz, Hematite,

Black Tourmaline, Obsidian, and Garnet. The stones can be

carried in a pocket, placed in the area of the Root Chakra or at the

bottom of the feet, or made into an essence.

Imagine your Root Chakra. The color of this chakra should be a

beautiful, clear red. If you see any other color, remove it and

imagine the chakra being filled with red energy. Once you are

able to imagine the proper color filling this chakra, imagine it

spinning in a clockwise direction. Spin it faster and faster as you

fill it with red energy.

Sacral Chakra

The Sacral Chakra, also known as the Sexual Chakra is located 2"

below the navel. The color of this Chakra is orange. The parts of

the body affected by this Chakra are the reproductive system, the

sexual organs, and the lumbar plexus. The gland affected by this

Chakra is the Gonads.

This Chakra relates to our sense of taste and appetite. This applies

to the physical levels as well as the more spiritual sense of loving

and enjoying life. Our well-being, our sense of sexuality and our

permission to give ourselves prosperity and abundance are all

focused in this chakra. From this chakra we are able to create - a

life as well as other manifestations. This Chakra is associated

with the emotional body and our willingness to feel our emotions.

Illnesses associated with this Chakra are Kidney weakness,

constipation, muscle cramps, lack of energy, allergies, and loss of

weight. Excessive energy in this Chakra make people emotionally

explosive, overly ambitious, manipulative, caught up in illusions,

overindulgent, and they see people as sex objects.

7/28/2019 Chakras 1

11/27

The negative archetype of the Sacral Chakra is the Martyr. The

Martyr does take a greater degree of responsibility for itself than

the Victim of the Root Chakra, but it is not strong enough in its

sense of self to be empowered or vitalized. The martyr lets its

energy dissipate by always seeking approval and helping others.The martyr's life is full of suffering. Whatever the situation, the

Martyr is unable to liberate its heavily negative attitudes toward

life and create the joy and happiness it so desperately desires.

This archetype feels helpless to change its situation. It does not

feel entitled to personal happiness and can suffer for years, unable

to change its life patterns. The Martyr relinquishes its claim to

happiness in order to maintain peace, stability and balance for

others. This can be at the detriment of its own mental and

emotional health and physical well-being. Usually the Martyr

feels it is doing the right thing for children, spouse or parents by

living an incomplete and unfulfilled life, and suffering at the

expense of its own creativity and personal well-being. There is

also a deep sense of guilt as the Martyr believes it deserves the

suffering.

The healthy archetype of the Sacral Chakra is the Empress/

Emperor. The Empress/Emperor represents both worldly power

and earthly pleasure. It is the archetype of people who lovefeeling well and who thoroughly enjoy life. It is comfortable with

abundance, prosperity and success. It has a strong sense of life

and a gusto for pleasure and fun. People who identify with this

archetype have the attitude that there is always enough and that

7/28/2019 Chakras 1

12/27

they will always be provided for.

Crystals to balance the Sacral Chakra are Carnelian, Coral and

Amber. These stones can be carried in a pocket, placed in the area

of the Sacral Chakra or made into an essence.

Imagine your Sacral Chakra. The color of this chakra should be a

beautiful, clear orange. If you see any other color, remove it and

imagine the chakra being filled with orange energy. Once you are

able to imagine the proper color filling this chakra, imagine it

spinning in a clockwise direction. Spin it faster and faster as you

fill it with orange energy.

Solar Plexus Chakra

The Solar Plexus Chakra is located below the breast bone. The

color of this chakra is yellow. The parts of the body affected by

this chakra are the muscles, skin, the large intestine, the stomach,

the liver, the pancreas and other organs and glands in the region

of the solar plexus. This is the chakra those of us with

Fibromyalgia need to work on.

This chakra relates to our sense of sight and impaired vision. This

chakra is concerned with our sense of power, control, freedom

and mental activity.

Illnesses associated with this chakra are digestive difficulties, gas,

food allergies, liver problems, diabetes, gall stones, muscle

cramps and spasm, depression, and difficulty breathing.

Excessive energy in this chakra causes people to be judgmental,workaholic, a perfectionist, overly intellectual, and emotionally

cold. Deficient energy in this chakra causes people to be

depressed, have a lack of confidence, worry about what others

think, confused, have poor digestion, be afraid of being alone,

7/28/2019 Chakras 1

14/27

jealous and mistrustful.

The negative archetype of the Solar Plexus Chakra is the Servant.

The Servant archetype undervalues itself and does not honor its

basic worth. The Servant is not as dysfunctional or disempowered

as the Victim or the Martyr, but it represents someone who does ajob well but who is neglected and receives little

acknowledgement for what it does. The servant does not have a

sense that it deserves better than what it receives in its life. As the

Servant is ignored it finds itself lingering in the background. The

Servant does not have enough of a sense of its esteem and worth

to acknowledge itself and so is dependant on others to give it

what it cannot give to itself. This archetype relinquishes its

personal power and emotional needs in order to win

acknowledgement and approval.

The healthy archetype of the Solar Plexus Chakra is the Warrior.

This archetype lets us all be the hero or heroine in our own lives.

We take control, harness our willpower and live from an

empowered position in our work, relationships and in the world

around us. The more we can give ourselves permission to feel

good in the power of our own energy, the more personal power

we accumulate in our lives. Our ability to stand up for ourselves

is associated with this archetype.

Crystals to balance the Solar Plexus Chakra are Citrine, Gold

Topaz, Amber, Tigers Eye, and Gold Calcite. These stones can be

carried in a pocket, placed in the area of the Solar Plexus Chakra

or made into an essence.

7/28/2019 Chakras 1

Imagine your Solar Plexus Chakra. The color of this chakra

should be a beautiful, clear yellow. If you see any other color,

remove it and imagine the chakra being filled with yellow energy.

Once you are able to imagine the proper color filling this chakra,imagine it spinning in a clockwise direction. Spin it faster and

faster as you fill it with yellow energy.

Heart Chakra

The Heart Chakra is located in the center of the chest. The color

of this chakra is emerald green. The parts of the body affected by

this chakra are the heart, the blood and circulatory system, the

cardiac plexus, the lungs, the entire chest area, the immune

system, thymus gland and lymph glands.

This chakra relates to our sense of touch. Hugging is a Heart

Chakra activity. Sensitivity about being touched indicates heart

chakra sensitivity. Perceptions of love are related to this Chakra.

Difficulty with breathing and problems with the lungs indicates

tension in the Heart Chakra. A person's relationship with air

reflects their relationship with love. When our hearts are open, we

are at peace with ourselves and with those around us.

Illnesses associated with this chakra are heart pain, heart attack,high blood pressure, fatigue, difficulty breathing, tension,

insomnia, anger, paranoia, and cancer.

The negative archetype of the Heart Chakra is the Actor/Actress.

7/28/2019 Chakras 1

17/27

This archetype refers to those who play at love but who are not

sufficiently aware and hide their darker feelings under the hidden

agendas of power and dominance. The Actor/Actress is incapable

of real intimacy because it resists feeling its fears and negativity

to loving and being loved by another. It goes through life actingas if everything is fine, escaping its inner emotional reality and

managing to avoid the experience of intimacy. It doesn't expose

its own vulnerability and feels safe only at a distance from those

it professes to love. Love, for this archetype, is a mental exercise

rather than a function of the heart. When anyone becomes too

close to its vulnerable core, it closes down and sabotages its

relationships.

The healthy archetype of the Heart Chakra is the Lover. The

Lover first and foremost loves themselves. Without knowing who

we are and understanding and accepting ourselves, we cannot

fathom the power of love. As we choose love, we also choose life.

As we affirm ourselves, love eases its way into every fiber of our

being. This archetype loves people, animals, plants and all of life.

Crystals to balance the Heart Chakra are Emerald, Green and Pink

Tourmaline, Malachite, Green Jade, Green Aventurine, Rose

Quartz and Peridot. These stones can be carried in a pocket,

placed in the area of the Heart Chakra or made into an essence.

Imagine your Heart Chakra. The color of this chakra should be a

beautiful, clear emerald green. If you see any other color, remove

it and imagine the chakra being filled with green energy. Once

7/28/2019 Chakras 1

18/27

you are able to imagine the proper color filling this chakra,

imagine it spinning in a clockwise direction. Spin it faster and

faster as you fill it with emerald green energy.

7/28/2019 Chakras 1

Throat Chakra

The Throat Chakra is located at the base of the throat. The color

of this chakra is sky blue. The parts of the body affected by this

chakra are the throat and neck, the arms and hands, the brachial or

cervical plexus, the Thyroid Gland, the Parathyroid Gland, mouth

and teeth.

This chakra relates to our sense of hearing. It channels mental

energy to our minds and hearts to give voice to our feelings,

thoughts and experiences. This is the center for self-expression,

creativity and will power. The Throat Chakra is strengthened and

enhanced each time we express ourselves in truth and with

integrity.

Illnesses associated with this chakra are communication and/or

speech problems, thyroid and immune system problems. Otherproblems associated with the Throat Chakra are knowledge used

unwisely, ignorance, and lack of discernment.

The negative archetype of the Throat Chakra is the Silent Child.

7/28/2019 Chakras 1

20/27

This archetype holds onto its feelings and does not reveal its hurt,

pain or anger openly. The Silent Child stays closed in order not to

reveal its intense pain and sorrow, or its abuse. It learns to feel

safe in silence or jokingly hiding its true feelings. This archetype

may dampen its feelings with drugs, tobacco, alcohol or food. TheSilent Child will have to struggle to make itself heard and to feel

that what it says counts.

The healthy archetype of the Throat Chakra is the Communicator.

This archetype includes anyone whose job or personal well-being

is dependant on clear and direct communication, including artists,

musicians, and dancers. It takes responsibility for what is says

and how it says it. It speaks both its mind and its heart.

Crystals to balance the Throat Chakra are Turquoise, Chrysocolla,

Blue Topaz, and Aquamarine. These stones can be carried in a

pocket, placed in the area of the Throat Chakra or made into an

essence.

Imagine your Throat Chakra. The color of this chakra should be a

beautiful, clear sky blue. If you see any other color, remove it and

imagine the chakra being filled with sky blue energy. Once you

are able to imagine the proper color filling this chakra, imagine it

spinning in a clockwise direction. Spin it faster and faster as youfill it with sky blue energy.

7/28/2019 Chakras 1

Third Eye Chakra

The Third Eye Chakra is located in the middle of the forehead

between the eyes. The color of this chakra is indigo. The parts of

the body affected by this chakra are the forehead and temples and

the pituitary gland, pineal gland, brain, eyes, ears and nose.

This chakra relates to extra sensory perception, clairvoyance,clairaudience, clairsentience, etc. It is associated with the deep

inner level of Being we call the Spirit. It is the place where our

true motivations are found, and is the level of consciousness that

directs our actions and, in fact, our lives.

Illnesses associated with this chakra are confusion, mental illness,

bad eyesight, lack of clarity, and psychic exhaustion.

The negative archetype of the Third Eye Chakra is

the Intellectual. This archetype tries to master the forces of chaos

by living from the dictates and constrictions of the left brain only

and it seldom engages with its feelings, particularly those

surrounding fear and insecurity. Its mind is dry and has a static

quality to it which limits its happiness and restricts its capacity

7/28/2019 Chakras 1

22/27

for joy. While it controls its world, it avoids having to listen to its

inner voice which may be saying that it is time to relax, enjoy the

day, or smell the roses. The Intellectual is also highly opinionated

and has many ideas based on information from secondary sources

rather than trusting what comes from its direct experience. It doesnot trust its own intuition to provide a valuable source of

information to guide it through life's challenges or uncertainties.

The Intellectual is often full of tension from worrying or thinking

too much.

The healthy archetype of the Third Eye Chakra is the Intuitive.

This archetype is able to access its deepest knowing which we

call our intuition. It has become wise. It can make choices for

itself and help others to find their inner wisdom. This highly

developed archetype has the gift of inner sight, known as

clairvoyance, and trusts its inner knowing to provide guidance

and answers to life's perplexities.

Crystals to balance the Throat Chakra are Lapis Lazuli, Azurite,

Sodalite, Quartz Crystal, Iolite and Sapphire. These stones can be

carried in a pocket, placed in the area of the Third Eye Chakra or

made into an essence.

Imagine your Third Eye Chakra. The color of this chakra shouldbe a beautiful, clear indigo which is a mixture of blue and red. If

you see any other color, remove it and imagine the chakra being

filled with indigo energy. Once you are able to imagine the proper

color filling this chakra, imagine it spinning in a clockwise

7/28/2019 Chakras 1

23/27

direction. Spin it faster and faster as you fill it with indigo energy.

Crown Chakra

The Crown Chakra is located on top of the head. The color of this

chakra is violet. The parts of the body affected by this chakra are

the brain, nervous system, the pituitary gland, and the pineal

gland.

This chakra represents that part of our consciousness concerned

with perceptions of unity or separation. This chakra shows our

relationship with Spirit. It represents our connection with our

biological father, which becomes the model for our relationship

with authority, and ultimately with Spirit. It is the level of the

soul. When one experiences a sense of separation from their

father, they close the crown chakra, and experience a sense of

isolation and aloneness, as if they are in a shell, and having

difficulty with feeling contact with those around them. Thoughtprocesses tend to justify and maintain the sense of aloneness.

The function of the Crown Chakra is to open us to the light of

Spirit which is externally connected to the Source. This chakra

7/28/2019 Chakras 1

24/27

channels the energy of that part of ourselves, often called the

Higher Self, and embraces us within its healing and protective

light, When we are open to receiving the love and wisdom from

our Higher Self we are filled with the energy of the Divine,

guiding and inspiring us in all we do.

Illnesses associated with this chakra are stress, worry, hysteria,

right-left brain balance, headache, and depression.

The negative archetype of the Crown Chakra is the Egotist. When

this chakra is closed, we experience an archetype which, because

of the high degree of conscious development and success it has in

the world, is often resistant to developing its spiritual

development. It can be described as proud, arrogant and full of its

own self importance. The Egotist is rooted in the belief that only

it is responsible for its personal achievements in life.

The Egotist stubbornly refuses any interest in spirituality or even

acknowledging the presence of a guiding and protecting presence

in its life. It is convinced that everything is within its control. Its

arrogance prevents it from being humble or for asking for help

from others when it needs support or cannot find true peace with

itself.

The healthy archetype of the Crown Chakra is the Guru. This

archetype is the highest level of responsibility, vitality and

empowerment. As we move into the Guru archetype, the realm of

possibilities expands to the infinite and we tap into the joy and

7/28/2019 Chakras 1

25/27

bliss of our spirit. Here, we are one with the Source, we are whole

and complete.

This archetype knows that it is the Source of all its experience

and accepts conscious responsibility for every aspect of its life. Itturns what has been unacceptable into acceptable, what has been

dark into light and what has been hidden into what can be loved

and embraced.

Crystals to balance the Crown Chakra are Amethyst, Diamond,

Sugilite, Purple Fluorite, and Clear Quartz Crystal. These stones

can be carried in a pocket, placed in the area of the Crown Chakra

or made into an essence.

Imagine your Crown Chakra. The color of this chakra should be a

beautiful, clear violet. If you see any other color, remove it and

imagine the chakra being filled with violet energy. Once you are

able to imagine the proper color filling this chakra, imagine it

spinning in a clockwise direction. Spin it faster and faster as you

fill it with violet energy.
