Red, orange, yellow, green,blue, indigo and violet.

These are the colours of the rainbow. And for the first time the other night, I realised that this is the same sequence of colours in the Chakras.

I was meditating and working up through the different chakras, doing certain practices to strengthen and balance them and prepare for the main part of the meditation, when I suddenly realised this was the same sequence of colours as the rainbow I had seen a few days before.

The answer is simple I suppose.. they are both due to different frequences across a range. Different colours in the rainbow are different frequences of light waves, and different colours in chakras are as the level of vibration of the chakras increase as you go up the body.

For those who dont know much about them, below is a man-on-the-street description of them.

There are seven main points in the body where energy is obvious, these are called Chakras. The Chakra Points, to some degree, determine how you feel. Chakras are like vortices of energy that spin both from the front of our bodies and the back. These energy centres can get blocked and sluggish at times, therefore making certain aspects of our life or physical body feel the same way. They can also spin too fast and become overactive, this in turn can also cause imbalances on various levels. Therefore, what we strive to achieve is a nicely balanced chakra system, so that each centre is working at its optimum level for us to feel healthy and harmonious in all aspects.
