The 7 Chakras Explained: Balance Your Energy & Third Eye Wisdom
We are more than what we see in the mirror we are energy in motion.
That energy flows through seven main points in the body known as the chakras.
Each one governs a different part of our emotional and spiritual world.
When they are balanced, you feel calm, strong, and deeply aligned with yourself.
When one is blocked, life feels heavier and unclear.
Let’s dive into the meaning of each chakra, how to heal them, and why grounding is the secret to true awakening. ✨
🌿 1. Root Chakra - Muladhara
Color: Red
Location: Base of the spine
Represents: Stability, safety, and grounding
The Root Chakra anchors you to the earth.
When it’s open, you feel safe and confident. When blocked, fear and insecurity take over.
Signs of balance: Feeling supported, trusting life
Signs of blockage: Anxiety, financial stress, restlessness
Affirmation: I am safe, I am grounded, I am supported by the Earth.
🧡 2. Sacral Chakra – Svadhisthana
Color: Orange
Location: Lower abdomen
Represents: Emotions, creativity, sensuality
This chakra is your center of pleasure and flow.
It’s the seat of your divine feminine energy, your ability to feel, connect, and create.
In balance: Emotional flow, creative passion, joy
Blocked: Guilt, shame, emotional disconnection
Affirmation: I honor my feelings and allow pleasure to flow through me.
💛 3. Solar Plexus Chakra – Manipura
Color: Yellow
Location: Upper abdomen
Represents: Confidence, willpower, purpose
Your inner sun. It gives you the courage to take action and trust your path.
When balanced, you know your worth. When weak, you seek approval or fear failure.
In balance: Confidence, motivation, strong boundaries
Blocked: Doubt, anger, need for control
Affirmation: I stand in my power and act with confidence.
💚 4. Heart Chakra – Anahata
Color: Green
Location: Center of the chest
Represents: Love, compassion, forgiveness
The bridge between the physical and spiritual worlds.
When your heart chakra opens, you love fully without losing yourself.
In balance: Empathy, harmony, acceptance
Blocked: Jealousy, grief, fear of intimacy
Affirmation: I give and receive love freely.
💙 5. Throat Chakra – Vishuddha
Color: Light blue
Location: Throat
Represents: Truth, communication, expression
This chakra allows you to express who you truly are.
When blocked, you might hold back your voice or struggle to speak your truth.
In balance: Clear communication, creativity
Blocked: Fear of judgment, silence, dishonesty
Affirmation: My voice is strong, my truth is valid.
💜 6. Third Eye Chakra – Ajna
Color: Indigo
Location: Between the eyebrows
Represents: Intuition, clarity, spiritual vision
This is your center of inner wisdom, your intuition and insight.
But here’s something many forget:
If you open your Third Eye before grounding your lower chakras, it can feel overwhelming.
You might experience vivid dreams, anxiety, or confusion because your energy isn’t anchored yet.
True spiritual awakening always begins from the Root up, not the other way around.
In balance: Intuitive, aware, emotionally stable
Overactive: Restlessness, detachment from reality
Affirmation: I trust my intuition and stay grounded in truth.
🤍 7. Crown Chakra – Sahasrara
Color: Violet or white
Location: Top of the head
Represents: Spiritual connection, higher consciousness
The Crown Chakra connects you with the Universe, your source, your purpose, your peace.
When it’s open, you feel deeply aligned with something greater than yourself.
In balance: Peace, inspiration, divine connection
Blocked: Disconnection, emptiness, doubt
Affirmation: I am one with the Universe. I am light and love.
✨ Final Thoughts
Balancing your chakras isn’t about rushing enlightenment, it’s about learning to listen.
Healing starts with grounding, not escaping.
The more you root yourself in the present moment, the safer your energy feels to rise.
