What are Chakra Types
The seven chakra types are a revolutionary personality-typing system based on the ancient wisdom of the chakras.
They can give you profound insight into your unique individuality, your life’s purpose, and your innate gifts and potential.
What are the chakras?
The chakras are the seven main centers of your body’s subtle energy system. They are one of the oldest systems on earth and were first described in ancient Vedic texts that date back more than four thousand years.
Though most people learn about the chakras through Indian philosophy and yoga, they are a universal phenomenon. Different versions of the chakras have been described and documented by most ancient traditions, such as Ancient Egypt, mystical Judaism, Buddhism, several Native American tribes, and the Mayans.
The chakras are one of the world’s most profound and complete maps of human experience and all its different dimensions. Not only are the chakras associated with different physical systems, they also provide a detailed map of human psychology and consciousness.
You can imagine them like gateways or lenses through which we experience and express different aspects of life: Each chakra represents different needs, values, experiences, qualities, and themes.
Taken together, they paint a beautiful and intuitive picture of the rainbow-like nature of human existence.
What are chakra types?
The basic idea of the chakra types is most easily explained as follows: Imagine all the specific qualities of a chakra personified in a living human being. How would that chakra live, feel, and behave?
That would be a pure chakra type.
Each of them represents well-defined values, interests, traits, and a unique sense of happiness and fulfillment.
Depending on the unique makeup of your soul and personality, some chakras will naturally be more active in you than others. This means that you experience the world mainly through the lens of these chakras.
That’s what defines your personal “chakra type.”
It determines how you experience life, what truly matters to you, and how you naturally express your specific gifts.
The chakra types system
While even just understanding our main chakra type can be of great benefit, none of us, of course, is a pure chakra type. That is why the system is way more nuanced.
It describes your base personality as an interplay of your three most dominant chakras: Your major, secondary, and supportive chakra type.
This interplay is called the “soul structure” and is the heart of the chakra types system.
The benefits of knowing your chakra type
Knowing your chakra type can help you answer many of life’s biggest questions.
Who am I?
Your chakra type will greatly enhance your self-awareness. It provides a profound understanding of your needs, values, motivations, wishes, and behaviors.
Many clients report a sense of deep relief and profound self-acceptance resulting from truly understanding themselves at their core.
Realizing the basic patterns of your personality will greatly help you to distinguish between the true calling of your heart and the voices of conditioning.
Instead of trying to become someone you were never meant to be (and comparing yourself with others), you can finally and fully embrace who you are.
Why am I here?
From a spiritual perspective, you are here to develop and express certain soul qualities.
Thanks to the chakra types, it becomes clear what exactly these are and how you can truly express who you are. This will also reveal what your challenges and growth might look like.
The chakra types will also provide you with a detailed map of how to maintain your balance, how to grow as a person, and how to move through life’s challenges with much more ease and grace.
How can I find fulfillment?
A penguin will never be happy climbing trees. Don’t waste your precious time trying to be something you are not.
Every chakra type has an entirely unique type of happiness and fulfillment. This is why comparing yourself to others makes very little sense in the end.
So much conflict, confusion, and disappointment in life arises from the simple fact that we don’t really know ourselves – and we pursue paths that can never truly make us happy.
When you finally understand how to stay “in your element” a lot of struggle will simply disappear from your life.
