Color plays an important role in
our physical, mentally, emotional and spiritual well being. Color dances in the landscapes, and flows
through people, culture and language.
How many times have you read or heard someone say, “His face was red
with anger?” Or black as night?
There’s even a theory that we are
drawn to the color of the clothing we chose to wear for today; that we feel a
need to have that particular color in our life.
There are even certain periods of our life’s, or seasons, where we are
more drawn to a color. I know in the
winter time, I am more prone to black and navy blue, but in the summer, I love
bright colors. Color sets the mood.
The fashion industry uses color as a marketing tool, by telling us it is proper to wear earth tones in the autumn and pastels in the spring. Realtors suggest using neutral colors when preparing your house for the market. When choosing a color for this blog, I choose black for a background, because black is mystical, it symbolizes death and rebirth; like the birth of a new thought.
Color is a property of light
broken down into different frequencies.
Every frequency or color has the ability of impacting the various
energies of the human essence. Take for
instance the Chakra System. For those of
you who do not know what chakras are, it is a Hindu tradition. Chakras are elusive energy points along the
spinal column.
Red is the color of the root
chakra. Vibrations related to the root
charka would then be transferred along the nerve pathways to the organs closest
to it. Since the root chakra is located
at the base of the spine, the areas affected would be vertebrae, rectum, anus,
sex organs, legs, and anything else attached in that area of the human body. It is the center of life promoting energy.
The spleen chakra is above the
root chakra, at the first lumbar of the spine. Its color is orange. It also impacts the reproductive system, in
addition to the muscular system. The
organs influenced by this center are the spleen, kidneys, bladder and pancreas.
The keyword here would be
detoxification.
The color of the next chakra, the
solar plexus chakra is yellow. This
chakra impacts the stomach, gall bladder, liver, adrenal gland, and the
digestive system. It is also linked to
the left hemisphere of the brain and psychic energies.
The color of the heart chakra is
green. It impacts the circulatory
system, as well as the immune system. It
is also linked to the right hemisphere of the brain. It is the center of higher love and healing
energies.
The throat chakra is next, and
its color is blue. It influences the
throat, esophagus, the mouth, teeth, thyroid and digestive tract. It can be stimulated for greater abundance in
our lives and increase our telepathic abilities.
The color of the brow chakra is
indigo. It is linked to the eyes, ears,
sinuses and the face. It impacts the
pituitary gland and the endocrine system of the body. This area can open your spiritual vision and
is inner connected the imagination and creative visualization.
And finally, the crown chakra;
its color is violet. This chakra aligns
us with the higher energies in the universe.
It influences the functions of the nervous system, and the skeletal
system, as well as the pineal gland.
The colors of the Chakras are the colors of the rainbow (Roy G Biv = Red, orange, yellow, Green, Blue, indigo, violet). Part 2 of Color Healing will be posted soon. Until then, enjoy this guided meditation below and
clear your chakras.
