As we walk across the Earth, we are moving upon a living being more similar to ourselves than we imagine. Just like us, the Earth has both a physical body and an energetic body, complete with a chakra system identified by ancient mystics and modern scientists alike. Gaia, as the Earth is called when acknowledged as a living entity in her own right, has her own life force and her own path of unfolding, separate from us but also including us. Human beings and Gaia are intertwined on every level, not just the physical. An awareness of her chakras can help us acknowledge, heal, and enable her on her path, just as she selflessly returns the favor to us.
It is generally agreed that Gaia has seven major chakras distributed evenly across her body and connected to one another via two lines of energy that intersect at various points on the Earth. The first chakra is located at Mount Shasta in Northern California; the second is in Lake Titicaca in South America; the third chakra is in Uluru-Kata Tjuta in Australia; the fourth chakra resides in Glastonbury in England; the fifth chakra is between the Great Pyramid and the Mount of Olives; the sixth chakra is in Kuh-e Malek Siah in Iran; and the seventh chakra is in Mount Kailas in Tibet. In addition to her seven major chakras, she has minor chakras and other vortexes of energy that are significant to her life-energy system, and all these energy centers need caretaking. Just as we can heal ourselves through our own chakras, we can heal and support Gaia through hers.
While it would be wonderful to visit one of the Earth’s chakras, you can always participate in loving and healing Gaia wherever you are. Maintaining an awareness of the regions in which her chakras reside can be very powerful. You can place photos of the locales on your altar, sending healing energy to each of her chakras during your meditations. As you consciously connect your energy system to her energy system, the true meaning of groundedness reveals itself — it is a relationship with Gaia in which we acknowledge our calling as the caretakers of her soul.
