Chakra Symbol Meaning
Portal Page

Chakra symbol meaning is like a deep opening into a well of ancient knowledge.

The chakra itself is merely a circle. It is the esoteric symbolism attributed to the chakra symbol that offers a wealth of meaning. What's more, we can apply this perennial meaning to all aspects of our lives.

Why should we care about a chakra symbol meaning? Because familiarizing ourselves with them provides us with deeper insight into:

• Our bodies and physical health
• Our internal energies and emotional health
• Our energetic patterns and mental health
• 
  
  

  We can also use the prime seven chakra symbols as blueprints that can navigate us to broader solutions to conflicts in our lives.

  For example, if we are experiencing specific physical symptoms we can look to the governing chakra for clues. If, say we are experiencing thyroid problems, we can refer to the throat (Vishudha) chakra for a myriad of symbolic connections that affect the thyroid. Among other things, this chakra deals with self-expression. Perhaps if we find our voice, our thyroid will rediscover its natural rhythm.

  Or, if there are areas in our behavior we want to nurture, we can look to the ruling chakra, stimulate that chakra as a means for self-development and improvement.

  I especially like using chakras as guideposts for intuitive work, particularly with color. When I experience certain colors, I refer to the corresponding chakra (ie, red for root chakra), and I consider what that chakra represents. This helps me glean more meaning from events, in my life as well as my clients'.

  Chakra symbol meaning is all about connectivity. These emblems come from ancient Hindu tradition which is steeped in the knowledge that nothing is separate. Pull on one thread, it effects the entire fabric of life.
