Vedic knowledge recognizes seven main energy centers, or chakras, in the body, each associated with unique aspects of our life-energy and each associated with a specific color. When you find this cache, select one of the seven logs to sign – either select a chakra that is open and strong for you, or select one that you need to work on, or just select your favorite color!
Muladhara chakra - RED - the root (tailbone/perineum) chakra – associated with care of the physical body and the basic needs. If your Muladhara chakra is balanced, you are stable and secure. If it is underactive, you may be anxious and unfocused; if it is overactive, you may be lethargic or plagued by material desires.
Svadhisthana chakra - ORANGE – the sacral chakra (at the sacrum or hips) – associated with the pleasure of being alive! This chakra promotes intimacy, sexuality, love and relationships, and fertility. Balanced: you are passionate and emotionally stable. Underactive: fearful or emotionally closed; overactive: obsessive or prone to mood swings.
Manipura chakra - YELLOW – the solar plexus chakra – associated with empowerment, confidence, perseverance. Balanced: you are powerful, disciplined, trusting. Underactive: low self-esteem, insecure; overactive: arrogant or judgmental.
Anahata chakra - GREEN – the heart chakra – associated with unconditional love and compassion. Balanced: you are compassionate, kind and loving. Underactive: withdrawn, lonely; overactive: dependent, jealous, insecure.
Vishuddha chakra - BLUE – the throat chakra – associated with communication and speaking your authentic truth. Balanced: you are truthful and a good listener. Underactive: shy, difficulty expressing yourself; overactive: loud, garroulous, or prone to gossip.
Ajna chakra – VIOLET– the third eye chakra (between the eyebrows) – associated with knowledge, intuition, and consciousness. Balanced: you are insightful and intuitive. Underactive: unimaginative, disinterested; overactive: unfocused, overly fanciful.
Sahasrara chakra – WHITE- the crown chakra (hovering over the crown of the head, like a halo) – associated with spirituality and the divine. Balanced, you are perceptive and understanding. Underactive: closeminded, cynical; overactive: overly analytical and spiritually conflicted.
When all chakras are open and balanced, you may achieve enlightenment, and walk the earth performing feats that seem magical to those less advanced, like finding geocaches before they have been published. CONGRATULATIONS to The Flying Dutchman on his FTFBIP (First To Find, Before It’s Published)!!
