Fifth Chakra



The Fifth Chakra is known as Vishuddha in Sanskrit, or as the throat Chakra. It is usually represented by the color blue. The element related with it is Aether, or heaven. It is located in the neck and throat region. The Yantra symbol represents a sixteen petaled lotus, with a sky blue triangle center, and the element akasha in the center. Vishuddha represents the expression of oneself, working towards communicating one's will, honesty and choice, freedom of expression, integrity, and creativity.
