How does Energy work with Chakras?

The more I look into the information on Chakras the more interesting they are.  The use of energy to heal is something people may have heard of in the form of Reiki where the laying on of hands and using a life force energy is used to bring healing.  I must admit I was not aware of energy healing being used with Chakras so you learn something new everyday.  Now some people will not believe in this and will possibly state that it is all in the mind.  Whether this is true or not doesn't matter.  If something gives a positive outcome to the recipient then there has to be a positive purpose in doing it. 

You can look at symbolic associations and the chakra system chart to determine the meaning of a specific colour. Yet, the colour of someone’s energy field is likely associated with the activity of one or several chakras. When paying attention to the auric field, it’s important to remember that colours do not necessarily have a definite, set meaning, but rather reflect the activity of the energy centers and their frequency or vibration.

For example, seeing purple around someone’s upper body while they are describing their calling in life might be due to a strong emphasis coming from their third eye chakra, an energy center we commonly rely on when we envision our purpose or use our intuition.

Similarly, if you see flashes or a haze of pink around someone’s upper body, the heart might be involved and contributing to colouring the auric field.

The chakra colour wheel and the aura

The aura can be seen as the electromagnetic field that surrounds the body. Its colours reflect the energy flowing through the chakras and can be correlated to the state of the various bodily functions, as well as emotions and other psycho-spiritual elements.

Even though the chakras are typically represented with specific colours, they may appear with different tints and shades in the auric field depending on the situation and the individual. Healing traditions provide a rich palette of colours when depicting energy centers in the human body.

For instance, even though heart energy may generally be depicted as green, it sometimes radiates in shades of pink when one feels into strong emotional qualities of love and compassion. Red, which is generally associated with the root chakra, can be coloured differently depending on the strength and quality of the energy in this center. It could for example go from deep burgundy red to a lighter orange red.
