  Sanskrit Name; Meaning  :  Ajna ; to perceive Location  : Center of the forehead / center of eyebrows Affirmation :  “I see.” Central Power  : Intuition, Imagination Element  : Light  [1] Note: Chakras five through seven ascend beyond the physical elements Mind Arising through the chakras, we now find ourselves sitting at the literal “Mind’s Eye”, and about the second easiest to remember next to the heart chakra. This “All-Seeing Eye” is our infinite connection to divine consciousness and a glimpse into the things beyond what we can see. This center envelops our thoughts and consciousness that mark us as slightly different then the animal people, such as bears, snakes, or dolphins, or other creatures solely lying on blind instinct and genetic evolution. We all think, even if we all think in different ways. This chakra represents how we think, imagine, and perceive the world. The sixth chakra is at the edge of human potential. [2]  It is wha...

  Sanskrit Name; Meaning  :  Vissudha ; Purification Location  : Throat Affirmation  :  “I speak.” Central Power  : To speak and be heard Element  : Sound  [1] Note: Chakras five through seven ascend beyond the physical elements   Mind As we ascend into the higher chakras, we are first presented with the fifth chakra. This is the first in the line of the “upper chakras” (five through seven) and thus is one of the first that extends just beyond the physical elements of earth, water, fire, and air. As the first of the ethers, an element that is believed to fill the upper regions of space, we best associate this chakra with its own epicenter for spoken word: sound (which actually breaks down into vibration!). This chakra is empowered by the ideals of communication, listening, and creative expression. Someone who may find themselves balanced in this chakra will have a resonant voice and be a good listener; clear communication includes both t...

  Sanskrit Name; Meaning  :  Anahata ; Unstruck Location  : Heart / Chest area Affirmation  :  “I love.” Central Power  : To love and be loved Element  : Air  [1]   Mind The fourth chakra falls right in the middle of the seven major chakra centers; there are three chakras below associated more with the physical body and three chakras above associated more with the spiritual body. Because of this, the fourth chakra is a major gateway between the heavenly energies above and the earthly energies below. The heart chakra is in the middle of the seven chakras for a reason; it is the middle ground where mind and body meet… because love is the central tenet, not creation. The more emotionally stable you are, the better equipped you are to deal with future challenges. [2] The heart chakra is the place where above and below mix and where energy is processed through the lens of compassion, empathy, and love. It is the location that generates the hi...

  Sanskrit Name; Meaning  :  Manipura ; Lustrous Gem Location  : Solar Plexus Affirmation  :  “I can.” Central Power  : Volition / Willpower Element  : Fire  [1] Mind Will-power, control, and the desire to enact your own will on the world around you and over your specific life and dominion is all the rave about this chakra. While all of the chakras can be read or sensed energetically, the blaze of fire that can erupt from this place of “enacting one’s will” is what could lead to war, assault, violence, and the ever-prominent spirit of competition. Ever get into so intense of a breathing routine during a sporting event, competition, or even the crunch of finishing something “on time”? We all have deadlines! Fire is what is enacted to cut through the stress of being. However, even flames go out. The energy of this chakra is all about proactivity, autonomy, individuality, will, or volition, self-esteem, and confidence. If the individuated self w...
