The chakra system is like the map of your inner energy that can guide you through the ups and downs of life. If you have already heard about the chakra system, you would be familiar with the seven chakras but there are a few more additions.
The advanced chakra system includes 12 chakras, 7 from the old system, and 5 additional chakras outside your physical body and into your energetic sphere.
Understanding the full 12 chakra system can unlock a new level of self-awareness and well-being. Ready to dive in? Let’s explore how these 12 centers of energy can impact your life.
What are Chakras?
The term ‘chakra’ means ‘wheels’ in Sanskrit, representing the flow of energy across the body. The chakras or energy points allow you to remain balanced on a physical, emotional, and spiritual level.
However, their blockage due to past traumas, stress, or self-doubt can result in negative energy and physical or emotional discomfort.
So, to maintain the flow of energy throughout your body, it becomes important to keep an eye on and open these chakras.
What is the 12 Chakra System?
The advanced spiritual 12 chakra system expands upon the traditional seven chakra system by adding five more energy centers. Each of these chakras has its own unique influence on your physical, emotional, and spiritual health.
The first seven chakras align with the main energy channels of your body while the additional ones operate on higher levels of consciousness. Together, the 12 chakras create a map for understanding and balancing your energy.
