Chakra Communication – First Chakra and Seventh Chakra

Jul 02
2009

Again, if you aren’t familiar with Chakra’s review the post on first and seventh chakra’s first. There are more on communcation of the chakras in past blogs as well.

Grand CanyonThe communication between the seventh and first chakra can be a very powerful one. This is our connection with ourselves as part of a whole. A whole what? A whole universe, consiousness, community, planet, you name it, you are part of more than youself, yet you are alone in your experiences as no one sees it the way you do.

This communication can be a powerful force in helping you understand who you are in a complete and balanced picture. It can give you the strength for follow all of your energy centers forward, because you trust yourself to be safe in the infinate power that is all of us. Neverending and always changing.

When this communication is blocked you feel victimized by the world. You feel disconnected from yourself as it relates to the rest of the world, you feel isolated, lost and sometimes completely depressed.  When I read for people and this communication is blocked (which it often is one of the most blocked spaces) the person generally lacks enthusiasm to keep going. They don’t know which direction to head and sometimes they are downright afraid to try.

You might feel like you don’t belong here, that you are a stranger on this planet. You may have a “get them, before they get you” attitude. You might feel competition and insecurity around people who seem “better” than you. Bottom line is, you feel threatened by how separate you feel from the rest of the world.

Insightful Inspriation of the week

Notice where you are blocking yourself to the wisdom that is yours to have with the divine guidance of all that you are part of. Do you feel competitive and protective of your ideas? Do you feel like you have to get ahead before someone else does or there won’t be room for both of you? Rest in the knowing that when we are in alignment with giving our gifts to the world, it is our unique gift to give and no one else has this to offer. They may do it similar to you, but it isn’t the same, and those that need your gift will receive it and you will receive you rewards for sharing that gift. There is plenty to go around of what we all want, because none of us want exactly the same thing.  This week, share your self authentically and openly, without fear that someone will take advantage of it, or abuse it. Give without expecation of receiving and allow things to unfold as they will.

Do you feel alone and as if no one understands you? No one does understand you completely. No one sees the world though your eyes. Your perception is made up of a complex matrix of your personality, experiences, concepts of the world and soul purpose. You are not meant to be understood fully, as you are unique and divine in your difference. Embrace the safety of knowing no one knows anyone on this dimension completely. No one is understood fully, yet there is nothing to understand. Let go of the need to convince others that your perception is accurate. It is… and so is everyone else’s no matter how different it is from yours.

This weeek, just feel safe to be who you are and have peace in knowing who you are as one individual and one as a collective.

As always, I encourage you to comment and discuss!

May your foundation be based in authenticity and peace.

A Journey through YOUR energy centers – Part 7, Crown Chakra

Jan 07
2009

This is the last of the energy centers series. The Crown Chakra is the chakra that enables us to move beyond the physical universe. More is always possible with all of these chakras and this is the one that reminds us of the limitlessness of it all. The key is to bring this information back down into the physical body, because as humans…that is what we are doing here on earth. My interpretation of this center is it is our ability to understand how we are all connected. When it is unbalanced or blocked, we feel alone, separate from each other or attached to the physical reality such as routines or dramas. It can be us stuck “in our head” or “over thinking” things or it could be lost in “daydreaming”. This chakra is also where external information comes in, regardless of source. I often find the news, parents, and other external control factors blocking up people’s seventh chakra. It can also be people’s connection to the spiritual realms as well i.e. God, guides, angels, etc. Notice, what external information do you let affect your decisions? Do you feel victimized by external situations? Do you feel alone in your struggles? Can you release those illusions and pay attention to what peaceful messages are there in your seventh. Bring that down into your body. When the seventh is open a sense of peace and clarity flows through all of the chakras. Do you listen to the external sources that support peace or fear? Notice what you are allowing to consume your time. Are you reading negative news, watching negative T.V. programs, or reading sad books? All of this affects how energy flows through your seventh chakra. In the message that your thoughts creates your reality, it the message to notice what you are allowing to consume you unconsciously. It all matters. There is not insignificant interaction. If you are allowing the interactions to drain you and control your thoughts… it is time to take back control and rule your OWN life. Life your life to the fullest. We are all struggling and concerned about similar things. We are all stuck in our thoughts at times. This is something you can use to connect to if you can’t let it go. Connect to the fact that you are not alone, just because we all have the same struggles. As I read for people, I see the same struggles over and over. We are not alone, we just are afraid to share ourselves sometimes because we perceive to be separate from each other. Reach out and get support from helpful sources and realize you are not alone. However, be careful as you do this, because it can also become an “identity” for you that is an illusion that will perpetuate the problem. For example, I find some support groups to drive this self identity in further rather than help you break free. For example, I have a gifted child, who is “twice exceptional”. The risk is, I could let that define me and my child and join groups to complain about how things aren’t working for these kids. That is limiting, and although it is helpful to know I am not alone and brainstorm ways we can make this better, I must be careful not to allow it to DEFINE me. It isn’t who I am. Similarly I have celiac disease. I have heard people at support groups refer to themselves as “celiacs” or “I am celiac”. The definition of yourself begins to form into this disease and consumes you. Although these things all make up our experience, we are so much more that can’t even be described in works. Notice how you are limiting yourself. Notice where you are a victim of your own thoughts. As always, don’t make this a problem, just notice and shift it, if you so choose. You are more powerful than you know. If you become awake to what you are allowing to influence your life, you will notice the pathway to more fulfilling experiences. “That which oppresses me, is it my soul trying to come out in the open, or the soul of the world knocking at my heart for its entrance?” – Rabindranath Tagore Have a peaceful and balanced week. Love to you all. Namaste.
