The word chakra is derived from the Sanskrit word meaning 'wheel'. If we were able to 'see' the chakras (as many psychics can do) we would observe a wheel of energy continuously rotating. Clairvoyants and psychics perceive chakras as colorful spinning wheels. The chakras begin at the base of the spine and finish at the top of the head. Though fixed in the central spinal column they are in pairs, located on both the front and back of the body, and work through it.   The only exception to this is the Root Chakra (seen as red above), which is a single chakra.

Each chakra vibrates or rotates at a different speed. The root or first chakra rotates at the slowest speed, the crown or seventh and highest chakra at the highest speed. Each chakra can be stimulated by sound.  And, each chakra is stimulated by its own and complimentary color.  There are also special gemstones for that resonate with each chakra, and the gems can be used to help clear or balance a chakra. The chakra colors are of the rainbow: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. The size and brightness of the wheels vary with individual development, emotional state, physical condition, energy levels, disease, or stress levels. 

Sound Is A Healer ...

"Sound stimulates the wheels of energy called the chakras.  Over 7,000 years ago seers in Indian connected with Spirit and brought down the Bija mantras, one mantra for each chakra.  The chakras affect health and emotions in the region of the body that they govern.  By using the correlating bija mantra, you can stimulate the chakra to help heal the body, and the emotions to release.  As Above, So Below.  What exists etherically will flow down to the physical body."

In traditional Hatha Yoga & Ayurveda, 
the seven Bija mantras associated with the chakras are: 

LAM (Lum) - for the earth chakra (1) 
VAM (Vum) - for the water chakra (2) 
RAM (Rum) - for the fire chakra (3) 
YAM (Yum) - for the heart chakra (4) 
HAM (Hum) - for the throat chakra (5) 
AUM (Aum) - for the third eye (6) 
AH (Ahh..) - for the crown chakra (7) 

The Colors That Support The Chakras:

Colors can have impact on our body's energies. They can help to clear negative emotions and energy and restore balance. Each color is associated with a different energy center, or chakra, in the body. Here is some information about each color and the chakra it can effect.

Red
Red is a vibrant color that stimulates the body. 

Too much red can overexcite and even cause anger. People with high blood pressure or anxiety may wish to avoid wearing too much red. This color can be used therapeutically for energy conditions associated with low blood pressure, inactivity, and impotence. 

Yellow
Yellow is associated with the solar plexus chakra. An imbalance in the solar plexus can manifest as fear, apprehension, introversion or power issues, which this color can help to balance. Yellow is associated with the intellect and mental processes. It can be used therapeutically for people with rheumatoid arthritis or osteoarthritis due to its vibrational link to calcium metabolism. In addition to the metabolic system, the solar plexus affects the digestive system and is related to the eyes.

Orange 
Orange can stimulate the respiratory and nervous systems and bring joy, making it useful for depression or melancholy. It is associated with the sacral chakra, so it can benefit the kidneys and urinary systems. The sacral chakra is also related to the adrenal glands, so orange can help to balance adrenal depletion or exhaustion resulting from chronic stress or overwork.

Green 
Green is a color that can help bring balance to the body and help purify and cleanse. It is related to the heart chakra, so it can help with issues stemming from too much or too little self love or rejection.

Turquoise
Turquoise is associated with the throat chakra and is responsible for strengthening the immune system against disease. It is also involved in improving communication. Turquoise can have an anti inflammatory effect. It calms and strengthens the voice, and can help to improve verbal expression.

Blue
Blue is a very calming and sedating color. Blue is related to the brow chakra. It can help to balance energy when there is high blood pressure, migraine, asthma, anxiety and skin irritation. It is a protective color that helps to protect you during challenging times by strengthening intuition and insight.

Purple
Purple is associated with spirituality, being linked to the crown chakra. It can help when personal transformation is desired, and can also help to bring self respect and inner wisdom, which is a vital aspect of self healing.
