Chakras Speak: Are You Listening?

Have you ever considered speaking to your chakras and getting their meaning directly?

I’ve experimented with this before while experiencing symptoms, which wrote about it in my post “Gotta Question? Ask Your Body…” but this exercise is more about asking the chakras to explain how they currently function for you in your life.

One idea in particular set me in this direction of exploration after being coached around the development of my new website. During the session, I spoke of my mission and while I was speaking I had the growing sense that one of the chakra’s contained a direct connection to my life’s purpose, and that this chakra wanted to speak to me about it.

Though I didn’t know which it was, or perhaps if it was all of them in some way…I was driven to figure it out. I started with a chakra meditation and while I envisioned each color, I invited that chakra to speak, asked it what messages it held for me and simply waited for the response before moving onto the next.

The answers I received came complete with visual images and feelings. I have listed them below.

Please keep in mind that there are several color variations one can use while meditating with the chakras, so don’t be alarmed if the colors you use are not listed. Also, the eighth chakra is actually ultra-violet light (so you can’t see the color), its color is dependent on the individual and determined by the soul and their current stage of development.

Chakras

Root Chakra (Color Red)
I was shown two separate images, one was of a very old tree with a complicated and deeply connected root system and the other was a ball of swirling energy. The words, I am creation and creativity, I am the source, the root through which nourishment comes entered my mind along with the feelings of intense support.

Sacral Chakra (Color Orange)
For this chakra the image of a very old compass and map came to mind (something similar to maps made in the 1700’s) along with the words, I am intuition, the compass by which you use the map…this was accompanied by a deep sense of guidance.

Solar Plexus Chakra (Color Yellow)
I entered this chakra and saw myself, reflected in a mirror. It then panned out to an image of me in relation to the world, I heard the words I am self-awareness and the mirror by which you see from without…while experiencing myself from the position of the observer.

Heart Chakra (Color Green)
This chakra presented itself in the shape of a heart, and I saw an image of a knight on a quest riding hard on his horse. The words I am passion, I am the beating heart and the force that drives the adventurer out to meet his destiny entered my mind along with the feelings of intense desire and love, of feeling ignited.

Throat Chakra (Color Blue)
I was shown our blue world from out in space for a moment before it zoomed into an image of my mouth and jawline speaking into a microphone. I heard the words, I am your voice in the world and the vehicle through which you deliver your contribution and felt energy go out before me like a wave, interacting, changing, impacting everything around me.

Brow Chakra (Color Purple)
I entered this chakra and was shown a funnel through which poured intense white light and out of which came images, sounds and feelings. The words, I am your communications system. I transport messages from Source came to me along with the sense of receiving information…like being told a story, learning something fascinating or experiencing some new understanding.

Crown Chakra (Color White)
For this chakra I was shown a tunnel, on one side was the light-filled world of energy and on the other our physical reality. I heard the words, I am your bridge between the spiritual and physical worlds while experiencing the feeling on intense connection.

Eighth Chakra (Silver & Gold)
This chakra appeared as an indescribable being of white light that words can not express, the closest I can come is to say that I experienced a visual representation of consciousness. This consciousness stated, I am the aspect of you that is Source and I hold your mission. The other chakras assist me in delivering it. The resonance and vibration of the voice, coursed and hummed it’s way through me until all I could sense or feel was the movement of its vibration…like a melody or song that defies the mind…but to which the body responds.

Mission & Purpose

Now that I know how the chakras are currently at work in my life I am experiencing a greater congruency with my mission on the planet. The alignment has taken place. It’s a movement outwards that starts with expanding this site into its role as ambassador for my life’s work…the purpose of which is nurturing the dreams of the soul, igniting passion and impacting the world by assisting people to bring out their biggest, best selves!

What information might your chakras have for you?

Fantastic exploration of the chakras, and I love that it comes from your own personal exploration, not just something you read.

I’ve never thought about speaking directly to my chakras like this, and it’s something I will explore in meditation this week.

Loving your articles Paula!

Much joy,
KL

Paula,

This is really cool!

I’m always on the look out for new aspects of my life experience that I can “speak” to — not just spirit guides or deities, but also archetypes, such as the “If Money Was A Person” exercise I’ve written about a few times… (link on my name above)

This is an original set of channels I haven’t thought to explore in quite the way you have here — I’m excited by the originality and eager to see what they have to say!

Thanks for the Chakra-by-Chakra breakdown too — I’m sure that will be helpful.

Paula, this is a fantastic idea of communicating with your chakras. In my meditations, I am not usually into seeing images. I get knowings and voices more than images. Some time earlier this year, for the first time ever for me, I got a very vivid image of the colors of each of my chakras. I was fascinated with the vividedness of the colors. I haven’t “seen” it like that since that day. I took it to be a very special visual gift from that meditation. Even my dreams are usually in black and white so when I see colors in dreams or meditations I pay especial attention to the colors and what they represent. Thanks for sharing the idea of talking to our chakras.

Warm Greetings Paula,

Thanks for sharing this detail with us. I can’t say I’ve actually asked my chakras to speak to me before, but I shall give it a go.

I have found that an interplay between the chakras and sound resonnations can be interesting to observe. I suspect that was a form of inter-chakra communication, though my conscious mind was not quite able to provide a translation as explicate as yours.

KL, Slade & Krishan,

I really want to hear from you about your experiences with this exercise and I’m so excited by your level of interest in trying it out! Please report back with your findings :)
Patricia,

This is very significant! In NLP we will use black & white to move a memory or experience further away from a person and vibrant colors to bring it very close…to create a fully associated state. I can’t help but think of this fully inhabited state when I read your description of the experience :)
Wow, thank you all for sharing your enthusiasm!

Much love,

Paula, thanks for sharing your knowledge. I think I have made significant changes in connecting with my body this year. If I understand what you said in your comment, seeing the colors of my chakras would be a verification of this process.

Because of my childhood incest issues, I disconnected with my body as much as possible, definitely so during the years of abuse. To survive the abuse, I went into my head and stayed there for many years. Going through menopause the past 5 years has helped me to reconnect. Maybe that is why the hot flashes were so bad. I am thinking about this as I type the words. You have definitely given me some things to think about. Thank you.

Until I took a dream class about 5 years ago, I thought everybody dreamed in black and white. I was shocked that the people in the class, for the most part, dreamed in color. They were shocked that I dreamed mostly in black and white. I wonder what the significance of that would be????

Hi Patricia,

You’re so welcome! Yes, seeing the colors is a clear indication that you were fully inhabiting your body :)
As for the dreams I suggest you explore that further, while there are many options…something you can try is to enter a dream and then stop and ask who for whomever is in control of the scene. Once you find them you can ask what is up with all the black & white??? I’ve done similar things in the dreamscape and have been amazed at the results ;)
Even if controlling dreams is not your thing…you can also do this through meditation by requesting a meeting with your dream-master. I may have to write about some of this at a later date!

Much love,

Paula, thanks for the input on the dreams. I will some times “wake up” in a dream and sometimes I will hear myself state, “I am dreaming.” I have never done lucid dreaming. I will try this in meditation. Please do write an article about this. I would be interested in hearing what you have to say about it.

Hey Paula,

I used what I could remember of this post for my meditation this morning. I tuned into each chakra, visualising the colour, and asked what message that chakra had for me. Each chakra gave me a short sentence or two, often a command or guidance. It was simple, clear and concise.

The responses I had were words or sentences in my head.

I’ll be doing this again I think, especially if I feel blocked in any specific area!

Hey K-L,

It’s so exciting to hear back from your experience! I think a blockage is exactly what this exercise ended up aiding me to remove ;)
Much love,

PK
