5th Chakra

The Throat or Fourth Chakra is located at the throat. The Sanskrit word is Vishudda – Purification. The element is air or ether/space and the vessel that holds sound and speech. The function is to flow with communication (not always verbal). The glands it affects are the Thyroid, Parathyroid – regulates calcium levels, energy, and metabolic rate. The physiological effects are ear, nose and throat areas, neck and glands. The colour is sky blue and the physical attributes are as in physiology – the capacity to speak, to communicate, hear, and listen. The emotional effect is peace, calm/cool, aloof, and cold. Mental aspect is full of doubt, philosophy/fanatic, and fundamentalist. The spiritual aspect is clairvoyance, clairaudience etc., and subtle skills. The overactive traits are verbal diarrhea and rambling speech. The underactive traits are withdrawal, shut down, agoraphobia. When the throat chakra is working really well, people see things as they really are, without fear of their own stuff. Fear of public speaking – throat plus all the other chakras below. This chakra is the space which the others can all come through and is linked to the 1st Chakra.
