A note on this entry
Planet, zodiac and frequency are modern Western/Theosophical correspondences added to the chakra system rather than traditional; frequency is the modern solfeggio series. Sanskrit name, location, element, bija mantra and petal count are traditional; for the planet, modern sources variously give Uranus or Saturn (traditional systems assign no planet), and Neptune is retained here as one common modern reading.

Outside the seven-chakra tantric system. Named as aether's secondary chakra in the element tables and by the transpersonal-point teaching; added here so that reference resolves rather than to claim it for the tantric system.
