Did you know that in some older yoga texts there are 9 chakras. In some there are 5 and some 16. We all use 7 now but this is not settled science but a felt sense of what is right. The chakras are a metaphor for helping us to understand the sensations that arise in different parts of our bodies. They roughly correlate to our glandular or endocrine system. So what is the tip here. Don't get hung up on all the knowing about this and become familiar with sensing and accepting what you are feeling. Only you can know what your chakras are telling you. The guidance of masters can be helpful in learning to relax and listen, but ultimately the knowing is inside you.
Learn to pay attention to them and you will have a rich dialogue you will wonder how you ever did without.
