green – The color of your heart chakra
The Heart Chakra Color: Green
Green is the color naturally associated with the Heart Chakra. It has many connections and associations and I cover just a few of the main ones here.
Whilst reading Chakras and Auras for people, the Heart Chakra was one of the Chakras that seemed to be pulled out of balance most often. It is not for no reason we say something tugs at our ‘heartstrings’ – it is an area that can reveal our vulnerable nature.
The Chakra Color Green is associated with:
- The great outdoors, nature itself and as such it signifies the natural cycle and rhythm of life. This translates to our ability or comfort with the changes that naturally occur in our life, not just those associated with our physical bodies but how we feel about people and events around us that naturally mature and evolve.
- Balance and perspective are indicated with the color green too. The Heart Chakra is seen as a bridge between the upper and lower Chakras – and green itself is found midway in the color spectrum. This midway position denotes balance and in most areas of life balance is key.
- Green is also a color of growth and expansion and is often referred to as a healing color. Because of its’ association to Mother Nature it is of course organic and wholesome too. People with green in the aura are often people who make good, loyal friends, they tend to speak from the heart and have a compassionate nature. Teachers or people who share their knowledge and passionate interests with people often show green in the aura too. They love their subject and that comes across in the way they speak and convey their message.
- Out of balance the green can denote emotions such as jealousy or envy, the color almost seems to ‘harden’ which of course signifies what is happening to the energy of the heart itself
- Some darker shades of green within the Heart Chakra area may show the feeling of being trapped or constrained, not much of the daily life of the person seems to be fulfilling or joyous.
- Sometimes the energy around the Heart Chakra seems to be exploding outwards – to me that can signal giving out a lot of love and caring but not a lot may be coming back for the person themselves. Many people prefer to give rather than receive but as I mentioned before – balance in all things!
- People with green in the Aura can often be quite sociable in their character and like texture and the feel of things to be right. Happiness is important to them and in their positive aspect they surround themselves with the people and things that make them happy. They usually enjoy a good standard of living, enjoying life and can be quite focused at achieving their goals.
As you can see it is not enough to just say that the Heart Chakra color is green. Light, dark, dim or patchy shades all mean slightly different things when you ‘read’ that color and relate it to the individual.
This is how we can start to work with color to promote healing – when you understand the meanings of the color and the energy, you can aim to rectify or improve that color, bringing it back to balance and harmony. That’s why meditation is so important.
