This chakra is located in the region of neck and shoulders and its color is blue. <br /> <br />The energy of this chakra allows you to seek knowledge that is true, beyond limitations of time and space, beyond cultural and family conditioning. <br /> <br />The main challenge for the fifth chakra is doubt and negative thinking. When you gain and verify your knowledge through meditation and direct experience, then doubt and negativity are removed. <br /> <br />The "way of the Throat Chakra" is the way of inspired creativity, seeking and sharing of the truth. <br /> <br />It is the way of standing up for what you believe, saying no when you need to, and being open and honest in what you say. <br /> <br />Sanskrit name: Visuddha <br />Element: Akasha <br />Color: Blue <br />Shape: Crescent <br />Petals of the lotus: Sixteen <br />Seed sound: Ham <br />Vowel sound: Eee <br />Rights: To speak <br />Endocrine gland: Thyroid and Parathyroid gland <br />Physical association: Throat, ears, mouth, shoulders, and neck <br />Psychological function: Communication <br />Identity: Creative identity <br />Developmental stage: 7 -12 years <br />Challenge: Lies <br />Plane: Human plane, where the dark night of soul ends <br />Planets: Mercury <br />Deity: Sadasiva, Sakini <br />Mythological Animal: Elephant, bull, lion <br />Incense: Frankincense <br />Herb: Chamomile <br />Sephira: Geburah, Chesed
