One, 2: The "Mysteries" of the Chakras

This chapter was a load to chew on. It is very short, but uses like, sciency language to describe a chakra and how it works. It reveals how chakras are related to colours, and how those colours affect an aura. Example: Someone is in a very creative moment, the fifth chakra is being exercized, which is related with blue, the aura will show mostly blue. It speaks earlier of characteristics of the chakras: shape/size, rotation/spin, colour, and intensity. She spoke of how auras are also connected with the mind, and how science has "proven" that the mind isn't only in the head. Experiments have shown that memories are often stored in connective tissue. I found that really interesting. Explains how a touch triggers a memory, or a scent. Now it gets all sciency. Rosalyn describes the activity of the chakra with relation to frequencies, kinetic and static energy, electromagnetic fields, and other things. So like, as stated in the book "a dynamic electromagnetic field consists of oscillations of a specific frequency or wavelength", so basically a dynamic electromagnetic field would be a chakra, or like the aura, contains energy that vibrates at a certain rate, that creates the colour, or sound, or vibration that one can sense. Then the book goes on to say how the law of conservation says that energy can neither be created or destroyed, so she draws the conclusion that energy can't be added or taken from chakras, but instead shifted. She uses thought as an example. A thought is static energy, the act of thinking is kinetic/dynamic, which causes the shift into a memory, which is again static. The memory becomes a part of the aura, as it is stored in your body. I dunno, that part is really difficult to recreate, but I understand it. For a conclusion of the chapter, Rosalyn speaks of how human growth and history is cyclical, and not linear. She uses examples of the age of Aquarius, a time that we are coming into as the period in which a lot of lost knowledge will make a resurgence and make itself known again, and planting the seed of thinking that we can save our world, and move into a brighter tomorrow. I love this book.
