SEC College Football is here, and for me, that means Bama and Auburn! (Yes, I cheer for both teams until the big day - the Iron Bowl - when they play each other.)
This year, the Iron Bowl will take place November 24, 2012 in Tuscaloosa, AL. On that day, my allegiance will be with the current National Champions, The University of Alabama. Roll Tide!
I do, however, have a genuine affection for Auburn, and so I wish both teams the best. If you are also a fan, you know that so much about college football is rooted in pure emotion. That is why the teams' colors can carry so much meaning.
If we look at each team's colors and correspond them to the Chakra system - we find some interesting correlations with fan psychology.
Let's start with the Root Chakra. It's color is red. (Crimson for you Bama fans!)
The Root Chakra governs our vigor, heredity, survival, security, passion, money, job, and home. This chakra aids us in our everyday survival. (Multidimensions.com) People who have healthy Root chakras really do believe in abundance - yes, they believe another championship is on it's way! There is also a deep connection to home with this chakra (Sweet Home Alabama).
The Sacral Chakra's corresponding color is orange.
This particular chakra is in charge of a person’s sexual organs, lower portion of the spine, large intestines and the bladder. It also affects how your emotions are working, how well you can use your brain for things like making decision, your skills, how well you control yourself, whether or not you get addicted to something, as well as your ability to handle sexual relationships and how creative you may be.

A big part of the Sacral Chakra deals with personal responsibility and pride. The Auburn Creed is practically a Sacral Chakra mantra. (I happen to believe its words are something we all can live by.) Include the blue chakra (The Throat Chakra) and you've got a very vocal and practical fan base: (War Damn Eagle).
