A Note With No Chakra

D sharp falls outside the modern chakra-tone correspondence system for the same structural reason as every other chromatic note in this atlas: the system pairs seven chakras against the seven natural notes of the diatonic scale and was never extended by its original authors to the five notes that fall between them. No classical or widely accepted modern source assigns D sharp a chakra of its own, and the honest description is an absence rather than a disputed or hidden assignment.

Individual popular writers have occasionally proposed chromatic-note chakra pairings of their own invention, sometimes reasoning that a chromatic note represents a transitional state between its two neighbouring natural-note chakras, but no such proposal has achieved anything like the general acceptance the seven natural-note pairings enjoy within the wider chakra-tone literature, and different authors' proposals do not agree with each other.
