Chakras
What are Chakras?
Chakras are a complex + ancient innerG system that originated in India. According to research, they were first mentioned in the Vedas, ancient sacred texts of spiritual knowledge dating back from 1500 to 1000 BC. The name breaks down to "cakra", which translates to "wheel of light" & is spoken in the Indian language of Sanskrit.
Chakras are seen as the main innerG points & portals within our bodies. In order for the connection of our body + mind to work together, these spinning disks of innerG must be opened, aligned, in-sync + remain balanced. They are equivalent to bundles of nerves, major organs, & areas of our innergetic body that affect our emotional, physical, spiritual, mental, + innnergetic well-being.
Disruption of Chakras
It is said to be a total of 114 chakras that exists within us, but we only focus on seven main chakras that run along our spine. In the event these innerG sources are disrupted - better known as "blocked" - physical + emotional symptoms associated w| that particular chakra will arouse & will be seen as either underactive or overactive, instead of balanced.
The symptoms can be...
- Consistently having financial barriers
- Feeling of being constantly fatigue
- Persistently stuck or lost
- Experiencing body dysmorphia
- Always losing, never gaining
- Parental abandonment feelings
- High anxiety, stress, being overwhelmed + more.
When your innerG is stuck w| the inability to move + flow freely, it can cause these symptoms to bring upon depression, headaches + random strikes of pain within your body.
Connection to Hoodoo + Vodou
Without balanced, opened + aligned chakras, there is less to none of an innerstanding and/or connection to Spirit + Ancestors. You will forever feel lost, detached and/or always headed towards the wrong path.
Our bodies are temporary shells for Spirit to reside in. Once the body is diminished, our Spirit transitions to another plane within the Universe where all physical complications such as disabilities, diseases + illnesses, weaknesses & difficulties are separated from Spirit.
Your Spirit now is redirected to searching for another vessel to find its way all over again until it completes its task in becoming enlightened!
