Basic Overview on Chakras

I want to cover some basic information about chakras in today's entry. But first I just have to burst with some news - no, nothing THAT exciting - but my writer's block is completely gone! I've had it since February and no matter what I did it would not go away. I think messing around with that beta screenwriting program helped - a lot! But I also pleaded to the angels for help on removing the block. Once I asked - it disappeared in one days time. Next time this happens, I won't wait 4 months to ask for help!

Okay - on to charkas and why it's important to keep them open and clean

Here is a basic overview:

The charkas are special energy centers that connect us to the Divine and multi-layered universe. They can be considered dimensional portals within our subtle bodies that takes in and processes high vibrational energy so that it can be utilized and used to transform the physical body. They contribute a type of undetectable energy to specific parts of the body. This cosmic energy (sometimes referred to as prana) is a manifestation of the life-force. We need to keep an uninhibited flow of energy through our charkas to help maintain the vitality of our physical bodies. Our chakras are also much more than passive electrical devices of our subtle bodies - they are actual organs of psychic perception. In addition to assisting us with psychic perception, they also are each associated with different emotional and spiritual issues in your development of human consciousness.

We have seven major and many minors charkas that make up our energy superhighway. White light/high vibrations enter us at the top charka at the top of our head and travel all the way down to the last major charka located at the base of our spine.

Whew! See why they are so important to keep open and clean? When one chakra is blocked, it stops the flow of energy to the other charkas. Think of it as your own personal energy jam. When this happens we lose our vitality, energy, natural psychic senses, our emotions are haywire and illness is prevalent.

Next I'm going to name the major charka, location, color association, physical responsibly, inner aspects and spirituality. I'm going to start at the bottom and work up.

1) ROOT: Base of Spine, Red, Reproductive, Grounding, Kundalini (our life-force)
2) SACRAL: Below Naval, Orange, Genitourinary, Emotion & Sexuality, Prana
3) SOLAR PLEXUS: Upper Abdomen, Yellow, Digestive, Personal Power, Lower Astral
4) HEART: Mid Chest, Green, Circulatory, Love, Higher Astral
5) THROAT: Neck, Blue, Respiratory, Communication & Will, Lower Mental
6) THIRD EYE: Middle of Forehead, Indigo, Autonomic Nervous System Intuitive & Inner Vision, Higher Spiritual Forces
7) CROWN: Top of Head, Violet, CNS Central Control (Nervous System), Spiritual Seeking, Higher Spiritual Forces

And that's it for the real basic overview of charkas. I've been working on my Heart and Throat charkas this week with stones/crystals and visualization. I've made a tremendous improvement on the Heart - but the Throat is being a bit more stubborn.

Time to get back to my fictional story and the gypsy magic book!

Until tomorrow...
