Seven Chakras - Associative Properties
The list below shows the relationship of each of the seven important
Chakras - and its proper “yogic” Indian name - to its color, its
primary functions, its associated elements, and the number of petals on
its associated lotus flower:
It’s important to know the correct associated colour for a specific
Chakra, as the wrong “hue” may lead to different “paths” to the wrong
energy systems for that Chakra. However, different systems are always
associated with different colors, even when they “cross paths.”
The
colors in the list above actually represent each separate colour of the
rainbow, and thus are all monochromatic.
