The Meaning Of Chakra Colors

From early times, there has been fascination with the relationship between natural products of the earth and the human body. This has been especially relevant regarding the many rock formations that can be found everywhere. Tales of their healing power, by connecting the human body with their power, have been very popular. One of these that have come into prominence is the chakra stone and the chakra colors.

Color therapy has long been recognized as affecting people's moods, as is indicated in mental hospitals and hospitals which often use a lot of blues and greens. Knowing one's individual color will enable choosing a necklace, for example, that will transmit a feeling of calm and well being when worn. Many people choose their jewelry with this in mind.

This stone is said to have a direct relationship to a large number of chakras that are located in the body. In fact, certain Hinduism and Buddism philosophy says that they are the point of physical and spiritual energy in the human body. When something goes wrong at one of these points, in the body, it is believed that using these colors will the restore the missing energy.

People who are involved in things such as meditation, yoga and other forms of body relaxation also often use the chakra colors to extend their form of relaxation to a greater level. They are also used by many astrologers as a relationship between body and the universe.

There are seven main divisions of colors in these stones. They are 1)red, 2)orange, 3)yellow, 4)green, 5)blue, 6)violet and 7)white. The color is associated with each individual's chakra. In addition to physical treatments, they are also produced in anklets, rings, bracelets and belt buckles. It is felt that the 4th and 5th color best work as necklaces or chokers while 6th and 7th are best in earrings or hairpieces.

The chakras located within the body are in seven different spinning energy centers. A different color applies to each area. They are at the base of the spine (red), near the belly button(orange), at the solar plexus(yellow), over the heart(green), at the throat (blue), between the eyebrows(violet) and at the top of the head(white).

The heart is said to favor the color green, which is the color of nature and the energy of space. It brings energies as well as introducing calming and stabilizing energies. It is said the chakra colors also create a balance allowing harmoniously living while allowing greater openness to environment and relationships.
