I'm extremely interested in chakras but I want to figure out how they relate to astrology. There are many pieces of information stating various connections the Planets/Sun/Moon have to each chakra but I want to logically and intuitively work to figure out what makes the most sense and feels true. Please help me with your insight and/or with information you have found through various resources relating to this subject! I've heard it simply put like this: Sun=Crown Moon=3rd Eye Mercury=Throat Venus=Heart Mars=Solar Plexus Jupiter=Sacral Saturn=Root But I think it would make more sense for Mars/Pluto to be the Sacral Chakra ruling our sexual energy, right? Then there are the outer planets. If Uranus is the one who "knows" then wouldn't it be related to the Throat chakra or the 3rd Eye Chakra? Furthermore, Solar Plexus, emphasis on the SOLAR. Solar Plexus chakra is where our willpower comes in and in Astrology, Leo is how we literally are our own star, right? I'm not sure what to think of this but I'll keep posting what I find on it. Please join in if you find this interesting! IP: Logged |

Carolyn Myss, a renown intuitive healer and author, has drawn the connections between astrology and the chakras. She actually connects them by house than by planet, which to me, makes more sense. Each individual will not only have their own planetary placements within each sign, but particular to a house since that takes into account time of birth. What makes it even more fascinating is that you'll have the ruler of a house (and corresponding chakra) possibly located in another house (another chakra), so you can see how it will all connect.IP: Logged |

HEY MS PRISMATIC!!!! I love chakras too...I've always been interested in them ever since Avatar: the Last Airbender lmfao!!!!I can't find the image but I saw this before too: Neptune - Crown Chakra, which I thought was cool because the Neptune glyph was scattered along the head like hair/feelers! Uranus - Eye Chakra Mercury/Jupiter - Throat Chakra Sun- Heart Chakra Moon/Venus - Core Chakra Mars/Saturn - Sacral Chakra Pluto - Root Chakra IP: Logged |

What I like about Myss's set up and connections between the houses and the chakras is that it's specific to each individual. It doesn't take on a "one size fits all." The chakra/planets outlines posted so far are fine but general. Chakra/house connections are more specific to an individual.IP: Logged |

Thank you both for responding!Hey Red! I always thought that Neptune should be involved with the Crown Chakra too because it's pure spirituality. I'm just wondering how to put them all together. The Moon is supposed to be our subconscious and our emotional side and since those aren't physical, wouldn't they be ruling chakras up higher like the Heart or 3rd Eye? Hm. . . -------------------------- Hey there 12thHouser! Wow, thank you for the info. That is so interesting! You actually touched on this weird question that I had about my Sun/Jupiter conjunction in the 1st. I was wondering how that would manifest regarding chakras. Maybe we should all discuss our aspects from house to house and figure out how Ms. Myss' (haha) system would work for us? Does she have a chart or diagram that we could look at, 12th? ----- Do either of you have a conjunction we could analyse? IP: Logged |

The Sun/Heart chakra seems to be the turning point to be between conscious/higher and unconscious/lower chakras...so I personally thought that the Moon would be close like the root chakra, but idk, that's just what I saw in a pretty illustration hahaha! IP: Logged |

Yes, I've seen so many variations on the chakras and their planetary rulers but who knows, huh? Here's some from the first row on google images and they're all different! What the heck! It's like people saying "No no, Leo is ruled by Neptune, silly goose!" Haha IP: Logged |

It makes sense for each of our Chakras to be one of the planetary bodies. On astromatrix they do the chakras with the conjunctions.I don't know how they would work though. Sun the Crown Moon the 3rd Eye Mercury the Throat Venus the Heart Mars the Solar Plexus Jupiter the Sacral Saturn would be the Root Honestly i can't match them together and they differ to much There has to be a connection between though. ------------------ Inner Peace.

Ohh i see. I Agree with all then, except maybe the Uranus as the Crown, though Uranus is normally the lightbulb above your head. : ------------------ Inner Peace. IP: Logged |

Why do you think the Sun is better? Uranus rules collective consciousness which makes more sense. ------------------ I'm sooo happy! I mean, cappy. IP: Logged |

Well we draw all energy and light from the Sun it's like a source for the soul, but that goes with the Solar Plexus or the Root aswell .. The Crown Chakra is a door of universal energy and conscience; through it you can reach a higher state of awareness .. Sounds like both Neptune & Uranus, but the Sun could fit there aswell, or the Moon .. I guess Uranus was a good idea ------------------ Inner Peace. IP: Logged |

why does everything have to be better than each other. lolThe sun is nice from a distance but it burns everything it touches. Personally I find unattractive flaws in all planets. Even Jupiter and Venus. This is because I find a lot of Venusians and Jovians to have huge personality flaws lol. If you have an excessive amount of planetary energy than that's not great because you're likely to have more flaws predisposed to that planet.

shouldn't Uranus be the 3rd-eye perception? IP: Logged |

I've heard all kinds of good things about the Solar Plexus chakra and how it's so important for singers, actors, etc. Anyone who relies on their vocal chords.Ms Prism - do you work with people's chakras, like with colors? The word prism reminds me of chakras, btw. IP: Logged |

Neptune fits better in my opinion. A very active 3rd eye results in an expanded awareness which is basically the ability to perceive things both from this and higher dimensions. It's like blending of worlds. This is how I see the crown: it allows us to draw available etheric energy into our etheric body (since chakras belong to it). I believe this is what reiki is about. Its practitioners channel and sometimes manipulate this so called "universal energy". Also, some people think we can connect with the Source through that chakra. Anyway, when you receive energy that way it supposedly feels like current (sounds Uranian, doesn't it?). ------------------ I'm sooo happy! I mean, cappy. IP: Logged |

That must be why so many performers and entertainers like the solar plexus chakra. They use that area for the origins of sound and the chakra strengthens them. They feel more powerful and energized when they focus on the solar plexus. I had vocal lessons and was advised to push my voice out of my body with the diaphram muscle or solar plexus. Do this and your voice will never experience strain.IP: Logged |

Well, the solar plexus is creativity, will power, individuality and supposedly the gateway for the energy of Sun. And if that's true, perhaps it's the best food for our etheric bodies ------------------ I'm sooo happy! I mean, cappy. IP: Logged |
