On my way to the bus station the other day, I passed a cute little woman on the street selling jewelry with her son Mauricio hanging on her back. Everytime I said "como estas Mauricio?" He would throw his head back and laugh, such a cutie pie. Anyway, his adorable 4' talk mom was showing me some of her jewelry, none if which I was looking to buy, because I'm not interested in "indigenous" designs so much as I am interested in "ethnic" designs.
But then she showed me this one that is the symbol of the 7 chakras of women. I haven't at all gotten into shamanism which is big here, and I couldn't find anything online that remotely resembled what she told me. So if she bullshitted me and this is completely untrue, tell me.
So she began to explain, from what I understood, that the 7 chakras are:
1. La cabeza - the head
2. La intelligencia - intelligence
3. La boca - the mouth, for communication
4. The throat? Didn't get this part
5. El corazon - the heart for sentimentality
6. The belly and womb for reproduction
7. Don't remember the 7th?? I think it was the legs or feet to be strong for your family.
Even though I only understood 3/4 of what she said, I thought these had a beautiful meaning so I took 2! I'll take anything in support of women, to support women!!
