Seven Chakras – Lotus Chakra Poster

Chakras are energy centers in the body. The term "chakra" originates from Sanskrit and translates to "circle" or "wheel," which is why they are often referred to as energy wheels. While the knowledge of chakras is primarily attributed to Indian traditions, there are also Mayan systems that some believe to be the origins of the Indian chakra system.

The seven main chakras align along the spine, specifically within the core of the Sushumna Nadi. These nadis, also known as Brahma Nadis, carry spiritual energy and supply the body with subtle energy. When the Kundalini (etheric force/life energy) is awakened, it rises from the red Root Chakra at the base of the spine, moving upwards through the central Sushumna channel or chakra column to the violet, white, or golden Crown Chakra at the top of the head. As this energy flows upward, it disperses throughout the body and interacts with secondary chakras. Chakras transfer energy both externally and internally, often depicted as cone-shaped vortices or spirals. Each chakra vibrates at its own unique frequency, with the vibrational frequency increasing from the base to the top.

The chakra symbols represent various emotions, organs, endocrine glands, life aspects, themes, elements, and colors. For example:

• The Root Chakra symbolizes primal trust and security.
• The Sacral Chakra is associated with partnership, creativity, sexuality, and pleasure.
• The Solar Plexus Chakra represents self-worth and personal power.
• The Heart Chakra signifies love and harmony.
• The Throat Chakra relates to communication and self-expression.
• The Third Eye Chakra (also called the Brow Chakra) symbolizes perception, self-realization, and knowledge.
• The Crown Chakra represents spirituality and divine connection.

Chakras play a central role in many spiritual practices, such as meditation, Kundalini yoga, Ayurveda, Reiki, and Shiatsu. When energy flow is blocked, these practices aim to restore balance so that life energy can flow freely.

This poster is a gentle reminder to care for your inner balance. The watercolor lotus mandalas featured in the design can serve as meditation aids, helping you connect with your inner self. Mandalas symbolize the origin of life, radiating outward from the center. Focus on your inner harmony and engage in balancing practices to maintain a healthy, strong, and centered body.
