Each chakra resonates with a planet.

Astrology offers us a real understanding of the rhythms and cycles of life. We can experience the workings of the cosmos through our energy centers, or chakras. When we are in the midst of a Saturn or Uranus return or Mercury retrograde, we become aware of irritation, grief, fear and negative patterns that limit our life. Our attitudes about ourselves and others emerge during challenges, and they beg to be harvested from our consciousness so that we can move forward in life freely and lovingly. Treating these limitations with color vibrations is both healing and effective.

The homeopathic color remedies consist of ten colors, administered and proven in clinical trials over the last fifteen years. They redress imbalance in the human energy system by stimulating the etheric field in which the chakras, or energy centers, are held. They are energy at its purest. The colors that have been made into remedies are :red, orange, yellow, green, turquoise, indigo blue, violet, pink, magenta, and spectrum (all colors).

Each chakra resonates with a planet. We know that Saturn affects the Root Chakra. Whenever we change homes, have issues of belonging in community, tribe, or family, we know Saturn is working in our energy field, clearing away what is in the way of our fulfilling our destiny. When Saturn is inauspicious in our chart, we will be too grounded in duty and sacrifice. When it is not strongly aspected enough, we may be flighty and ungrounded.

We can see, for instance, that Saturn’s recent two and a half year cycle through the sign of Cancer may have brought up issues around housing or home, where we belong and where we can best thrive. Using homeopathic red, which resonates with the Root Chakra and with Saturn, helps anchor us in life and lets us know we are entitled to the life we say we want. It supports us to fully live our life.

The planet Jupiter rules the Sacral Chakra. This is the planet of expansion and growth. When the Sacral Chakra is constricted and tight, or when pleasure and abundance, well being and self acceptance are limited, we need to see where Jupiter sits in our solar chart. Using the color orange, which resonates with this chakra and planet, will help it expand and stabilize in a positive way.

The Sun and Mars rule the Solar Plexus. They represent levels of personal identity and a level of aggression that helps us go after what we want in our life. Yellow is the color for this chakra and represents solar energy. It is the homeopathic color remedy which will expand our sense of who we are in life and let our light shine brightly. When we are challenged and our selfhood is diminished, a dose of this remedy strengthens and revitalizes us. It helps the sun to shine in our inner world.

Green is the color that rules the Heart Chakra, along with the planet Venus and the Sun. This color brings healing when we are tired, over-stressed and unsure about love. Pink also resonates with this center and provides a quality of gentle, loving warmth that nourishes the heart. When we are in the midst of a Saturn or Uranus return, or the planets are inauspicious because of some conjunction, these colors deeply affect our sense of well being and give us peace and joy.
Mercury rules the Throat Chakra and our personal expression. During a Mercury retrograde when communication systems crash around us and simple things become complex and mismanaged, homeopathic Turquoise helps support the integrity of this chakra and the influence of Mercury. It supports us in expressing our truth, both our personal truth and the Higher Truth, and using our will in a positive way to see things through.

The Brow Chakra is ruled by the Moon. Every two and a half days the Moon changes signs. When we need clarity of thought and vision for our lives, Indigo Blue resonates with this chakra and soothes the power of the Moon’s forces on our consciousness. We are learning that eclipses create severe mental stress for people who are dependent on its energy to stay focused and clear. When the moon becomes full, many people become too highly charged with its volatile energy. A dose of Indigo homeopathic color helps stabilize this center during these times.

The highest chakra, the Crown, resonates with violet. It does not correspond to a planet but opens up a consciousness of the entire cosmos itself. It works on the divine principles of spirit that transcend the zodiac. Cultivating an awareness of this center offers a bedrock in spirituality that goes beyond the turning of the planets. It provides a sense of oneness with all life and an awareness of the transience of even the furthest stars.
