Chakra's - What are they?
Chakra in Sanskrit means wheel.
People who see chakras see them spinning.
Some people can also see when chakras are blocked or affected by emotional, mental, physical or spiritual problems.
These problems are not only in our mind and physical body, but also in the etheric body.
Chakras can accumulate the negative energy.
This may have a 'knock on' effect on the chakra next to it e.g an emotional problem stored in the heart chakra may also become a communication problem which will affect the throat chakra.
This may lead to the entire chakra system becoming unbalanced.
