What is the Incan Chakra Energy System?

The Incan Chakra Energy System teaches that each of us has a luminous energy field, called a pop, which surrounds our physical body.  It is composed of four layers. These layers are the causal, the psychic (or soul), the mental-emotional (or mind), and the physical. This luminous energy field contains information that transcends time.  The information extends from our past and onward to our future.

The Chakras and their connections in the Incan Energy System

The Incan Chakra Energy System consists of nine chakras.  Chakras are known in South America as ojos de luz, or “eyes of light.”  The Chakras are also referred to as “pukios”. These chakras project threads of light, or huaskas, that extend beyond the natural body outward into the external world.  Chakras extend light emanating threads that reach beyond the body and connect with the external environment. This external environment consists of trees, plants, mountains, and other people.  The Incan chakra energy system believes all energy comes from these five sources- plants and animals, water, air, sunlight, and biomagnetic energy (causay in Incan). Here is a look at the Incan Chakras and their element, color, instinct, body, psychological, gland, seeds, and negative aspect correspondences.
