Chakra Series, Part V: Throat

Part V: Throat

Throat at a glance

• Archetypal Element: Sound

• Color: Blue

• Purposes: Communication, Creativity

• Right: To speak and be heard

Synchronized vibrations create resonance. We all know this to be true. When you’re on the same vibe as a family member, friend, or even stranger, you can feel it…even in silence. When we speak, these vibrations are literally amplified.

Here, I manipulated Blue Ice Cypress branches to bend like sound waves using bind wire. Similarly, Globe Thistle placed in the formation of a sine wave dot the lower left corner. Juniper Berry rest among the Eucalyptus pods which drape over the right edge. With all those textures, the arrangement needed softness that I think the five-petaled #5thchakra Tweedia flowers accomplish sweetly. It honestly looks like it belongs under the sea!

Perhaps my favorite detail about the creation of this arrangement is the kismet songs that played during the making: Crystal Blue Persuasion, Daydream In Blue, and Sierra Lift by Blue Hawaii.

The nature of this series as a form of self-expression has helped me connect and strengthen my internal resonance. When we do so, we can more deeply resonate with those around us, too!
