How many chakras does this traditional idea describe?

The story

Quarky learns about the chakras, a traditional idea from India that is thousands of years old. It pictures seven colorful energy centers along the body, from the base of the spine to the top of the head, like a little rainbow. People use this idea to think about feelings and balance, and Quarky loves that each one has its own color and its own feeling-word.
