| Color is energy. You will find yourself drawn to one color more than others. The energy vibration of that color is what you need, at this moment, in order to improve and balance your emotional state. There are numerous ways to heal and balance with color. A good rule of thumb is this: “Energy follows thought” Where we put our thoughts, this is where the energy goes. By concentrating on a particular healing color, it is the visualization of that color that will be projected. If we focus on a color, the energy emanates from our body and begins to change the frequency that resonates with that particular color. Color is light. Light, which is split into different wavelengths vibrating at different speeds and different frequencies. Objects that ABSORB all wavelengths and DO NOT reflect any, is black. Objects that REFLECT all wavelengths and DOES reflect everything, is white. Between black and white lies COLOR. Colors are wavelengths of energy that, to us, appear as color because of the potential and capabilities of the object to either absorb or reflect the energy. This basic principle is how we experience color. The Chakra: The Chakra are stations along the central axis of your being. Each one is a point at which energy can be expressed in a certain set of actions, attitudes and emotions. The Chakra are a map of the soul which you must move along for healing to happen. These points represent our physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual growth. When these points are healthy and in balance, then we are the equivalent.
