Colors and chakras
Color is all around us. This world we live in would not be quite the same without color. And yet we oftentimes take color for granted. But do you know that color plays a very essential part in life itself? Color affects us in profound ways, which cannot be really understood.
There are in fact, 7 colors in a ray of light. But we cannot perceive them unless they are broken up by an optical prism. For instance, light shining through raindrops can show up as a rainbow, and it is then we will see all the colors of light in all their glory. Each individual color has its own vibrational rate, the slowest being red, and the fastest being violet.
For each color, there is also a specific healing effect. Color affects the subconscious mind in many ways, and there is also another aspect to it - color plays a vital role in the functioning of the chakras.
What are chakras? These are believed to be spinning energy wheels located on the energy counterpart of the physical body. It is mainly an Eastern belief, with small variations between Chinese or Indian systems. However, all agree that the body has a life force which cannot be seen, and the chakras are something like intersections from which the energy lines intersect. Hubs, if you may call them that, and each chakra relates to a certain optical color.
So, do you now believe that color is an indistinguishable part of life?
