The seven vortices
A read of this page, with the plate.
Energy vortices within the etheric body. The seven major chakras lie along the Central Vessel.
If meridians are the horizontal plumbing, chakras are the vertical gates. They are vortices in the etheric body — wheels of organization along the central vessel, the midline you can feel as spine, breath, and the quiet column behind the heart. Rainbow color is a teaching code so you can name them. It is not a dress code, and it is not a photograph of an organ.
Seven majors, the earth, and the minors
Root at the base of the spine: ruby, survival, money, food, the right to be here — feet, legs, sacrum. Sacral: orange, pleasure, intimacy, creativity. Solar: yellow, power, clear thinking, self-worth, the digestive fire. Heart: emerald, empathy, growth, balance. Throat: sky blue, speech, healing, the mouth and thyroid. Brow: inner seeing, intellect, pituitary and eyes. Crown: violet, the larger field, pineal and the endocrine feeling. The lineage card writes eight gates: those seven on the midline, and the earth under the feet as the ground the column stands on. Not a ninth chakra. The ground. Minor vortices sit at the joints that take load — shoulder, waist, hip, knee. They are not lesser. They are where motion stores what the midline could not hold.
When a vortex loses coherence
Shock can tear a gate out of conversation with the rest. It may feel floating, numb, or too loud. The class notes say a chakra may need to be reattached or repaired. We notice which gate is not in the body, we give it honest conditions — food, a boundary, a true sentence, sleep. Course 03 is the longer study. For now, learn the map well enough to stop treating every problem as a thought.
Practice
Touch each vortex on the figure. Notice which one is loudest, and which feels slightly not in the body. Do not repair it. Journal the name and one sentence.
