Within every human being exists seven chakras. These major chakras are energy centres that generate and spread spiritual power. A chakra point, when healthy and flowing freely, enables us to become the best versions of ourselves which naturally spreads to the world around us.
When the chakra system is running improperly or has been wounded in some way, this blocks the energy from flowing freely and results in obstacles and blockages within the individual. For example, a heart chakra which has been wounded (i.e. experiencing a broken heart after a break-up and not addressing it in a healthy way) can stifle the energy, resulting in lack of trust, a cold outlook towards love, or, conversely, a desperate need to be loved “at all costs” which can result in unhealthy relationships based on attachment.
Humans are a mirror of the planet we live in. It is the manifestation of human thought that has led to the world around us. Like humans, the Earth suffers and struggles, but also experiences joy and happiness. Like humans, the Earth has light and dark within it. Like humans, the Mother Earth also has seven chakras across her energy system.
Energy Vortexes and the Major Chakra Points of the Earth
The Earth’s chakras are high energy points located at different places of the world. Her seven earth chakras are hidden from the naked eye but it is believed that being near them boosts your inner power and spiritual energy.
Most of the Earth’s chakras are located on ley lines. These are invisible lines that run throughout different locations on earth and hold divine power. When we are in proximity to these ley lines, we too begin to feel the divine power that flows through them.
