Chakra Healing and
Balancing - What Chakra type are you?
- Chakra Personalities -
 The
Chakra centers correspond to different areas on your body and you will
pay particular attention to these areas when you are working on
balancing and healing your chakras. It is important to understand what
chakra type you are so you can interpret your own physical, mental and
spiritual needs and work toward implementing the changes you desire in
your life.
The Root Chakra, or 1st chakra is of the Element
Earth. Keeping your root chakra balanced and healthy will help you
have abundant energy and give you the ability to accomplish all of
your goals. It is the foundation of all of your other chakras. The
dominant root chakra types are the earthy ones. If you are a woman you
have probably been called an Earth Mother type by your friends and
relatives. The root chakra personality is strongly in need of
emotional and physical security in order to find happiness. Your
health, home and hearth are of vital importance to you. You are the
gardeners, the artists, the forestry workers, you are a protector of
animals and Mother Earth.
A caution, you can be so grounded on this earth, that you forget to
work on your spiritual side. Although you should balance all of your
chakras, you should remember to pay special attention to your
complementary chakra, the Crown chakra. This will help you to overcome
the tendancy to be more attached to the Earth than to the Spirit.
The Sacral Chakra, or 2nd chakra relates to the
Element Water. Bring out your creative potential by having a healthy
and well balanced chakra. Sacral chakra types are driven by the need
to create, to express themselves and to share their creations with the
world. Sacral types are drawn to be artists, sculptors, architects,
carpenters; professions that can give them results that are
immediately visible. Sacral types are charismatic, likeable and
sensual. A healthy sacral type feels very much at home with his or her
own sensuality. The well developed Sacral type of Woman is a natural
mother and the men are very lucky to be able to get in touch with
their feminine side, making them excellent fathers.
Sacral types need to be wary of over indulging themselves in their
sexual nature. This natural side of this type can be balanced by
having a well-developed complementary, forehead chakra (third-eye)
which imparts wisdom and the ability to understand limits and
boundaries.
The Naval Chakra, or 3rd chakra type is associated
with the Element Fire. This chakra is the center of our life force and
from it emanates the most powerful energy we have. These are the types
that are never afraid of their decisions, they always make their
decisions based on their "gut" feeling and feel the needs of others
because of this innate ability to measure up a person or a situation
immediately.
The naval chakra type is competitive and can succeed at anything they
desire and, although they have the ability through their willpower to
avoid illness, up to a point, they can become dangerously committed to
winning at all costs. And the costs can be great because as strong,
vibrant and energetic this chakra is, they will eventually cause
damage to their health and their psyche if they don't learn to balance
their complementary chakra, the throat chakra. This will help them
learn to relax and discuss options rather than charge ahead
mindlessly. The heart chakra is also very important to a well balanced
Naval type.
The Heart Chakra, or 4th chakra is associated with
the Element air. This is the central chakra and is also central to the
development of all other chakras since it helps to assist in the
healing process. The heart chakra type is the person who embodies the
phrase, loving kindness. They are kind to others and accepting of
themselves, understanding that we are all humans and incapable of
perfection. These types make caring counselors and social workers.
They can paint pictures and write poetry that has the ability to stir
the emotions of others. Their heartfelt love, which is a part of
everything they touch can be felt by others.
Heart chakras do not have a complementary chakra to work on since the
heart resides in the center of all the chakras. It is very important
that the other chakras are healthy for a heart chakra type to be well
balanced, for a heart chakra type can become so inward that they
forget about the outside world without the strong energy of the other
chakras.
The Throat Chakra, the 5th chakra is one of the three
higher chakras and is connected to the mental aspects of our
personality. Since it is between the heart and third eye chakras, it
acts as liaison between our heart and our intellect and is the link
between this and the next existence. Throat chakras are communicators
and put great store in their ability to give rational explanations.
The rationality of which, they spent a great deal of time validating
for themselves to be the truth, which is why they can be so
convincing. Throat chakras, obviously, can be very successful at any
careers that have to do with communication: teaching, facilitating,
acting and singing.
Throat chakra types sometimes have a problem with being open to ideas
that are in opposition to their own beliefs. They can love of the
sound of their own voice so much they can't seem to stop expressing
their opinion. They can be one-sided in believing that, since they
did the math, they just can't be wrong. The throat chakra needs
to develop their naval chakra to ensure that they can feel the needs
of others and this will help to balance the impression that they just
can't be wrong.
The Third Eye (forehead), or 6th chakra is our source
of intuition, our psychic ability. It is the mind - spirit connection.
These are the types who are always searching for the answers to the
ultimate spiritual questions. Their ability to look beyond the
material world makes them the types who can be extremely creative
artists and writers, giving us glimpses in otherworldliness that only
they can dream up. They are not concerned about others opinions of
their work, they are simply sharing their fantasies with us and making
our lives richer for doing so. Perhaps they are not concerned about
our opinions because they see nothing unusual about there ability to
see things as they do. In their mind, they and their talents are
nothing special. They are not particularly concerned about their
talents, but about the spiritual path they are traveling.
It hardly seems possible that this type could have a negative side,
however, they like the other chakra types must achieve a balance of
the other chakras. The forehead chakra type can become so consumed
with their spiritual path that they become removed from the real world
and lose contact with their friends and family. This chakra has the
ability to forego all relationships and be content, a situation that
can eventually cause depression and mental illness. They must be aware
of this issue and work hard on a healthy balance of the other chakras,
especially the complementary sacral chakra.
The Crown Chakra, or 7th chakra type is the state of
enlightenment. This chakra resides outside of this physical plane,
hence there is no Elemental association with this Earth. If it had an
associated Element it would be Spirit. These types may not seem to be
of this world but they are, quite the opposite, more of the world than
the other types. They have developed and balanced all of the other
chakras to the point that they are now free to spend their energies on
enlightenment. Crown chakra types can be found in any vocation
although they are often involved in religious careers. Crown chakra
types are often spiritual inspiration for others. They can have an
aura that vibrates with their striving for spiritual enlightenment.
They are uplifting to all other types.
Crown chakra types are not immune to the problems associated with
imbalances. They must continue to work on all of their other chakras,
especially their complementary root chakra which will keep them
grounded. Otherwise, there is the chance that they can become overtly
superstitious and involved in damaging spiritual practices.
