SORRY, ALL! I FORGOT THE THROAT CHAKRA (THE FIFTH CHAKRA) SO HERE IT IS, IT IS INBETWEEN THE GREEN CHAKRA AND THE INDIGO CHAKRA.

The Throat chakra is the fifth chakra. Located at the center of the neck at the level of the throat, it is the passage of the energy between the lower parts of the body and the head. The function of the Throat chakra is driven by the principle of expression and communication.

Sometimes, it is symbolized by a circle containing a downward-pointing triangle in which is inscribed another circle

The color of the petals is depicted as smoky purple or grayish lavender.

Location of the Fifth Chakra

The most commonly accepted location for the fifth chakra is at the level of the throat. It’s important to remember that this chakra is multidimensional and is often represented as going out of the front of the throat, and going in the back at a slight upward angle.

The Throat chakra is associated to the pharyngeal and brachial plexi and is connected to the mouth, jaws, tongue, pharynx and palate.  It’s is also linked to the shoulders and the neck. The gland associated with the fifth chakra is the thyroid, which regulates the processing of energy in the body through temperature, growth, and in large parts, metabolism.

The Throat chakra is associated with the following psychological and behavioral characteristics:

Expression, in particular ability to express your truth, to speak out

Communication, whether it’s verbal or non-verbal, external or internal

Connection with the etheric realm, the more subtle realms of spirit and intuitive abilities

Propensity to create, projecting ideas and blueprints into reality

Realizing your vocation, purpose

Good sense of timing
T

he Throat chakra is about the expression of yourself: Your truth, purpose in life, creativity. Note that this chakra has a natural connection with the second chakra or sacral chakra, center of emotions and creativity as well. The throat chakra’s emphasis is on expressing and projecting the creativity into the world according to its perfect form or authenticity.

Another function of the throat chakra is to connect you to spirit. Because of its location, it’s often seen as the “bottleneck” of the movement of energy in the body.  It sits just before the upper chakras of the head. Opening the throat chakra can greatly help align your vision with reality and release pressure that may affect the heart chakra that is located just below.

The throat chakra is associated with the etheric body, which is said to hold the blueprint or perfect template of the other dimensions of the body. It’s an important reference point to align the energy through the whole chakra system.

5th chakra imbalance

A blocked throat chakra can contribute to feelings of insecurity, timidity, and introversion. On the other end of the spectrum, an oversensitive throat chakra may also lead to gossiping, nonstop talking, and being verbally aggressive or mean. It can seem as though the filter between the discourse you have in your mind and what comes out of your mouth is not working, or missing entirely.

Lack of control over one’s speech; speaking too much or inappropriately;

Not being able to listen to others

Excessive fear of speaking

Small, imperceptible voice

Not being able to keep secrets, to keep your word

Telling lies

On the opposite side, a closed throat chakra might manifest as excessive secretiveness or shyness

Lack of connection with a vocation or purpose in life
