As we walk across the Earth, we are
moving upon a living being more similar to ourselves than we imagine.
Just like us, the Earth has both a physical body and an energetic body,
complete with a chakra system identified by ancient mystics and modern
scientists alike. Gaia, as the Earth is called when acknowledged as a
living entity in her own right, has her own life force and her own path
of unfolding, separate from us but also including us. Human beings and
Gaia are intertwined on every level, not just the physical. An awareness
of her chakras can help us acknowledge, heal, and enable her on her path,
just as she selflessly returns the favor to us.
It is generally agreed that Gaia has
seven major chakras distributed evenly across her body and connected to
one another via two lines of energy that intersect at various points on
the Earth. The first chakra is located at Mount Shasta in Northern California;
the second is in Lake Titicaca in South America; the third chakra is in
Uluru-Kata Tjuta in Australia; the fourth chakra resides in Glastonbury
in England; the fifth chakra is between the Great Pyramid and the Mount
of Olives; the sixth chakra is in Kuh-e Malek Siah in Iran; and the
seventh chakra is in Mount Kailas in Tibet. In addition to her seven
major chakras, she has minor chakras and other vortexes of energy that
are significant to her life-energy system, and all these energy centers
need caretaking. Just as we can heal ourselves through our own chakras,
we can heal and support Gaia through hers.
While it would be wonderful to visit
one of the Earth’s chakras, you can always participate in loving and
healing Gaia wherever you are. Maintaining an awareness of the regions in
which her chakras reside can be very powerful. You can place photos of
the locales on your altar, sending healing energy to each of her chakras
during your meditations. As you consciously connect your energy system to
her energy system, the true meaning of groundedness reveals itself — it
is a relationship with Gaia in which we acknowledge our calling as the
caretakers of her soul.
