CHAKRAS 

Chakra is the Sanskrit word for 'wheel'. Chakras are whirlpools of energy with specific colors associated with the body's organs and their well-being. The colors of the chakras have no impact on the colors of the aura. Since the human body is a complex organism, there are many chakras.

There are seven major chakras located near the major nerve plexus of the body. Besides these there are many others referred to as minor chakras which can be found in our hands and feet, at each breast, each knee and elbow, at the hips and shoulders, and even at the ankle bones. The image below shows the locations of the seven major chakras
