A Shaman's Chakras

Yajad,

Whew! That armour looks amazing! I can’t wait to see the whole thing put together. It’s an interesting road you’ve taken using the chakras along with your character and your sigils are wonderful!

In case anyone cares the six-pointed star, or Hexagram,has been used extensivly around the world for numerous reasons. It’s a common symbol used in new age and occult rituals, kabbalah, Juddaism, Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, and Buddhism to name a few. The origin of the Hexagram has been lost to antiquity and it is theorized that it may have originated in numerous areas independant of one another. It is not an unknown or culturally unique symbol and it’s signifigance changes from place to place.

Tore’alos,

Thanks for the compliments reverendwyrm. I can’t wait to see this armor fitted to a character either :D.

And thanks for explaining the wide use of the hexagram. I had been meaning to do that.

I know acb12 was concerned about my using it, but some sources claim that its use in Hinduism and Buddhism predate its use in Judaism.

Dear brothers and sisters who wish to have a safe and rapid chakra activation here is a very effective exercise divided in three parts. In order to get the most of benefits I’ve decided to wait for seven days to allow your psychic centers to be exposed to the length of time required.
Very long experience had with me and some students have led me to succeed on this spiritual endeavor.
The colors for this special week are; red, orange and yellow. The psychic centers are; the pineal body, pituitary gland with its two lobes and our third eye. Three colors and three chakras located in the head.
So, for two days the color will be a bright red color being felt in our pineal organ, our pituitary gland and the remnants of our third eye. For the next two days the color will be a bright orange color, so on our seventh day the color will be a bright yellow color being felt in these three psychic centers.
Please forget everything that you have read regarding how and the sequence this chakra activation should be observed.

Days: one and two.

Start imagining that our head is a perfect sphere and right in the middle of it dwells the real you. Currently is a tiny gland, but many years ago it was a much bigger organ. This amazing organ is our pineal body. This organ has a powerful life of its own. This is the right place where your total memory resides.
This is indeed the Master Gland of all your glands, so every gland has a connection here. Right now our main concern is to make all the important psychic connections of your head. Please imagine that we all have a pair of psychic eyes, ears, nose, frontal lobes, left temporal temple and taste and skin feelings.
An amazingly beautiful bright color red starts to emanate from this spinning organ, your pineal body. This spinning creates a very strong electro-magnetic field which constantly expands, emanates and grows bigger. As you listen to the soft instrumental music from your choice and smell the rich pleasant fragrance of first quality incense. It is the appropriate time to instruct your brain that the music, incense and harmonious breathings stimulate every blood cell, nervous cell and neuron in your brain. It is time to say an affirmation:
“My Divinity which resides in my inner self helps me reinforcing these bridges between my spiritual world and my physical world”
Now try to relax and really enjoy this relaxed passive state. The use of your imagination is a most. Try to feel your wonderful inner peace and your increasing harmony with our Universe. You are a spiritual perfect being having some human experiences. Please welcome these experiences by blessing them with the loving power of your heart.

I came up embellishments such as the horns/pipes idea as a way for the Shaman to release energy.

Everything was polymodeled in 3ds max and then textured in ZBrush. The final version will have a much “dirtier” and realistic appearance.

Sahasrara (The Crown Chakra) is generally considered to be the chakra of pure consciousness.

I’m developing a character I call the Petrol Shaman.

I’m very happy to have finished the initial designs for this shaman’s chakras below.

These chakras will adorn his body and will serve as anchor points from which his armor will be built.

These chakra designs are a hybrid mixture of a few of the 2D chakra designs I found on the net.
