Duration 01:36 min - 04 May 2011

The first painting in a series of Chakra paintings, "Chakra of Massage" depicts the dreamy, meditative state that massage therapy can induce. Multiple colors represent what eastern philosophy refers to as the chakras, with each color representing a different chakra, or energy center. The chakras have very complex definitions, but basically refer to (from head to toe) 1) violet - connection to the divine, 2) indigo - intuition, 3) blue - speech and self expression 4) green - love, compassion and healing, 5) yellow - mental functioning power, control, freedom, 6) orange - emotion, creativity, sexuality, and 7) red - instinct, survival and security.
