What are chakras and how will understanding them improve your life?

In this series, we are exploring the significance and power of the 7 major chakras, one at a time.

Everyone has chakras. Chakras represent different energy centers throughout our body. Each chakra are associated with specific colors and energies. Though there are separate chakras, all chakras work together to create a balance of energies that affect your everyday life on a mental, physical, and energetic level (your mind, body, and spirit).

Gaining an understanding of each chakra helps you to become attuned with yourself. This strengthens your inner voice and allows you to be able to recognize whether you are emotionally on or off track so that you can rebalance yourself and make adjustments as needed.

Spirituality and astrology are interrelated. This series will detail how they connect so that you can more easily understand and incorporate these elements into your life and experience the positive changes it can bring!

In part 6, we are diving into the 6th chakra called the THIRD EYE CHAKRA!

This is the sixth of the seven chakras and is located between your eyebrows.

This chakra is represented by the color PURPLE and is connected to the planet SATURN.

Your THIRD EYE CHAKRA is your INTUITION.

This chakra is connected to all things that represent your perception, dreams, imagination, and wisdom.

Your THIRD EYE chakra needs to be nourished if you experience:

• headaches/migraines

• chronically making poor life decisions

• inability to remember your dreams

• lack of imagination

• not listening to your intuition

• being in denial of your reality

Your THIRD EYE chakra is kept balanced by:

• Carrying crystals/stones such as: Howlite and Lepidolite

• Practicing calming visualization exercises

• Painting

• Keeping a dream journal to record and interpret your dreams

• Daily meditation

• Chanting the seed sound to activate this chakra: “OM” (rhymes with home)
