Earth and Human Chakras in a Time of Transition
Rev. Kat Carroll
For thousands of years, cultures across the globe have understood the human body not merely as flesh and bone, but as a living field of energy, organized, responsive, and deeply interconnected. Likewise, Earth herself has long been regarded as a living system, with sacred sites marking places of heightened resonance, renewal, and transformation.
What has changed in recent decades is not the knowledge itself, but the language we use to describe it; and the timing of its return to public awareness – especially during a time of great changes in consciousness, both ours, and that of Earth herself.
Ancient Maps, Modern Language
The chakra system of the human body originates in ancient Vedic traditions, describing seven primary energy centers aligned along the spine.
These centers govern survival, creativity, will, compassion, expression, perception, and spiritual connection. Similar energetic frameworks appear in Chinese meridian systems, Indigenous healing traditions, and Hermetic philosophy—summed up succinctly in the maxim: As above, so below. As within, so without.
By the late 20th century, researchers began noticing something remarkable: the same organizing principles applied not only to the body, but to the planet herself.
The Earth as a Living System
By the late 1960s, Robert Coon began compiling and mapping what would later be described as Earth’s chakra system, drawing on sacred geography, Indigenous knowledge, and long-revered ceremonial sites. His work was later formalized and published in Earth Chakras: A Path to Planetary Healing (1997).
Coon’s model identified seven primary Earth chakras, each associated with a sacred site that had been revered, visited, or ceremonially maintained for millennia:
- Root – Mount Shasta, California
- Sacral – Lake Titicaca, Peru/Bolivia
- Solar Plexus – Uluru (Ayers Rock), Australia
- Heart – Glastonbury & Stonehenge, England
- Throat – Great Pyramid of Giza, Egypt
- Third Eye – Mount Kailash, Tibet
- Crown – Often considered off-planet, linked to the Sun or cosmic axis
Importantly, Coon did not frame these locations as control points or gates, but as resonance nodes—places where Earth’s natural energies converge and stabilize, much like acupuncture points in the human body.
Beyond Seven: An Expanded Human Chakra Model
In the 1990s, as interest in planetary and human energy systems re-emerged, some teachers began to explore whether the traditional seven-chakra model fully accounted for humanity’s expanding awareness. One of the more influential voices in this conversation was Drunvalo Melchizedek, who proposed that the familiar seven chakras of the human body exist within a larger, twelve-chakra framework.
Rather than replacing the traditional system, Drunvalo’s work expanded it, suggesting that human consciousness functions across multiple layers, embodied, relational, planetary, and transpersonal. The original seven chakras remain central, governing survival, emotion, will, compassion, expression, perception, and spiritual connection. The additional chakras describe how individuals relate to one another, to the Earth, and to a broader field of consciousness.
Of particular importance in this expanded model is the Earth Star Chakra, located approximately 12 to 18 inches (30 to 45 centimeters) below the soles of the feet. Its inclusion emphasizes grounding, embodiment, and physical presence — a reminder that expanded awareness without connection to the Earth can lead to imbalance rather than integration. In this view, spiritual growth is not an escape from the body or the planet, but a deeper relationship with both.
Seen this way, the twelve-chakra model mirrors a growing recognition that humanity does not exist apart from Earth, but within her systems. Just as the human energy field extends beyond the physical body while remaining anchored to it, Earth herself may be understood as part of a larger energetic context — stable, living, and responsive rather than something to be activated or controlled.
Earth’s Expanding Chakra System
According to many spiritual and metaphysical traditions, Earth is believed to have more than seven energetic centers. While seven primary Earth chakras are most commonly referenced—each corresponding symbolically with a human chakra and associated with well-known sacred sites—the planet is also thought to contain numerous secondary and minor energy centers.
These additional points are often described in relation to ley lines, vortexes, and sacred geography. Some researchers and traditions suggest there may be dozens, even hundreds, of significant energetic nodes across the planet, with the seven primary chakras serving as the most prominent anchors.
This raises an interesting question. If human consciousness is expanding—and additional energetic centers above and below the body are becoming part of our awareness—might the same be true for Earth during periods of transition? Rather than representing entirely new locations, expanded Earth-chakra maps may reflect a growing sensitivity to connections that were previously overlooked or only partially understood.
In a recent talk, Ismael Perez referenced additional locations on the Earth. These are included in the chart below, which compares the original Earth chakra sites identified by Robert Coon with the locations proposed by Perez.
This expanded perspective does not suggest that something new has been added to the human or planetary system. Instead, it reflects a widening lens — one that places responsibility, coherence, and grounded awareness at the center of what it means to be conscious at this moment in history.
What These Places Have Always Been
Long before modern chakra terminology existed, these sites were already known as places of:
- pilgrimage
- ceremony
- healing
- vision
- withdrawal and return
Hawaii is widely believed to be the last visible remnant of Lemuria (also known as Mu), a lost civilization said to have existed thousands of years ago in the Pacific Ocean. Many spiritual and metaphysical traditions hold that Hawaii’s islands are the final landmasses left from this ancient, spiritually advanced society, which thrived in harmony with nature, embodying principles of unconditional love, telepathy, healing, and oneness.
Giza, for example, has long been understood as a harmonic structure, aligned with Earth and sky, responsive to sound and geometry. It has been rumored to be a site for expanding consciousness by spending time in the King’s chamber.
In the late twentieth century, writers such as Solara explored the Great Pyramid not as a monument of power, but as a symbolic threshold. In her book, 11:11: Inside the Doorway, the Pyramid is described as a place of awakening and alignment — a resonant space where human consciousness could attune to broader patterns, whether understood as planetary, archetypal, or cosmic.
Uluru in Australia has been ceremonially stewarded for tens of thousands of years as a place of law, balance, and restraint. Lake Titicaca is remembered in Andean traditions as a point of origin and emergence, and for the history of its gold.
Mount Kailash remains unclimbed, revered as a cosmic mountain across multiple religions.
Greenland, more recently, has entered public awareness through overlapping political, economic, and symbolic interest—highlighting how attention often clusters around the same regions during times of transition.
The common thread is not domination or activation, but relationship.
From the 1990s to Now: What’s Changed?
In the 1990s, interest in Earth chakras emerged during a period of relative global stability. The conversation was largely introspective, therapeutic, and symbolic, focused on healing the planet by restoring balance within us.
In that decade, great books were produced on spirituality and what ascension would look like with the Celestine Prophecy by James Redfield as an example
Another topic was presented by Whitley Streiber who showed in his book Communion, that the contact experience was meant to help humanity; a very different perspective than what is being discussed today.
Today, the context is different.
We are living through a convergence of:
- heightened solar activity
- notable planetary alignments
- widespread public unrest
- institutional and governmental instability
- accelerating information flow regarding UFOs and ET
- growing collective anxiety—and awakening
Why do Earth chakra centers seem to matter more at this moment in history than they did in the 1990s?
Some modern interpretations now describe Earth chakras as gates, transmission points, or operational centers within a larger cosmic narrative. While these perspectives may reflect the urgency and uncertainty of our era, they also mark a departure from earlier understandings that emphasized resonance over control.
The places themselves have not changed. Our projections onto them have.
It’s also worth noting that interest in certain regions often rises simultaneously across political, economic, and symbolic domains. Whether this reflects discovery, projection, or resonance remains an open question — and one best approached with humility rather than certainty.
At moments of global transition, attention tends to cluster. Resources, myths, spiritual meaning, and strategic interest frequently converge around the same places, not necessarily because they are being directed to do so, but because human awareness itself is drawn there. Recognizing this pattern does not require assigning motive or authority. It simply invites discernment — and a willingness to observe without rushing to conclusion.
The Body–Earth Mirror
When viewed side by side, the similarity between the human chakra system and Earth’s resonant centers is striking:
- Both rely on circulation rather than hierarchy (the moving currents of the oceans, rivers and rain)
- Both respond to coherence, not force
- Both stabilize when energy flows freely
- Both fall into imbalance under stress
Just as the human body does not need to be “activated” to function—only supported—Earth does not require unlocking. She responds to attention, presence, and care. What we have been calling, coherence.
Walking Peace in a Time of Transition
Throughout history, periods of upheaval have been accompanied not only by prophecy and theory, but by embodied acts of peace. Monks walked. Pilgrims traveled. People prayed, sang, fasted, and tended sacred ground.
Today, Buddhist monks walk once again, quietly, deliberately—across nations, offering a reminder that coherence begins not in diagrams or declarations, but in how we move through the world.
If Earth has chakras, they are not switches to be flipped.
They are places that respond when humans remember how to listen, and how to during a time of significant shifts in consciousness—both human and planetary.
Love is that bridge that connects us all; to each other, the planet –
even to the cosmos.
Final thoughts
The parallels between human and planetary energy systems are not inventions of the modern age. They are old knowledge, resurfacing at a moment when balance matters once again.
Perhaps the most important lesson now is the simplest one:
Healing does not come from a controlling system.
It comes from alignment, which can only be achieved in the present moment –
when the mind is quiet enough to perceive and transmit love, gratitude and compassion.
And that has always been true — within us, and beneath our feet.
