Raven's Lessons - CHAKRAS!

Raven's 2013 Parastock Chakra Seminar
Close your eyes after reading this, and look for the root chakra. It will probably look a bit fuzzy. You're looking for a reddish orb of energy that has four petals around it.
Another way to check your chakras is by feel. You have chakras in your palm. You can ask your spirit guides to open them, and rub your hands very briskly together for a few moments. As you pull them apart, you will feel them tingle. You can then wave your hand through your aura over the various locations of the chakras, and sense them with your palms. This will tell you information that drawing can't... such as WHY a chakra has a certain thing going on inside it.
On hand Chakras: your dominant hand is all about projection and protection. Your receptive hand is all about drawing in, but also taps into self-knowledge. You can use your left hand to check your chakras and your aura to tell you things about what's going on with you. To activate them, request that your guides activate them, rub your hands briskly, and stretch them apart slowly until you feel the chakras open. Your hands will heat up and tingle.
Now, close your eyes, and picture a ball of white light. Focus on this light as coming from the core of the universe. The intent is that this light is perfect for you - it's for your highest good, it is unconditionally loving of YOUR energy frequency, and deeply healing.
The sacral plexus is orange, and has six petals. It is located two inches below your belly button and is centered between your back and front. All chakras are considered to be aligned with the spine, but this chakra can sometimes drift to the left a bit.
Locate your sacral plexus in the same way that you did the root chakra - either with activated palm chakras, or with visualization.
Between your root chakra and your sacral plexus, there are three main channels and two minor channels.
The central channel is the widest. It's called the Sushumni channel. The outside two that wrap AROUND the chakras but do not connect TO the chakras are called Ida (right) and Pingala (leftI) nadir.
The two minor channels that directly connect the root to the sacral plexus on the outside of the sushumni are also called Ida and Pingala nadirs.
Remember to activate your palm chakras and use your visual techniques. Your channels will be white (sushumni) and offwhite or dark (ida/pingala)
The reason the Ida and Pingala nadirs are dark is because energy flows DOWN the ida and pingala nadirs, and the Sushumni is bright white because energy flows UPwards there. So check flow. Downwards is much more subtle and gentle. When you connect to the ida and pingala nadirs, you will feel your energy shift downwards, like grounding. When you connect to the sushumni, you will feel your energy rising, like kundalini. The channels take a bit.
So remember the white light I had you connect to and let flow through your root chakra?
I want you do do the same thing through all five channels between your root and your sacral plexus.
The sacral plexus is all about your connections - how you relate to the world around you.
Everything you touch is stored in the sacral plexus... which can make it very crowded. Outmoded ideas, and burnt in, tired patterns, are held here.
I call the sacral plexus the noun chakra. If it's a person, place, thing, or idea, and you have ever related to it, it's there.
It's also a sexual chakra - but rather than your own sexuality... it deals with how you feel sexually about others. It also deals with how you relate to them sexually.
It's about what you enjoy in life, when it's healthy - the things that bring you pleasure. It's also the seat of indulgence and addiction. This is the chakra that your feelings about the world come from.
One of the first self-care things that needs to be done with this chakra is... what are you holding there that is no longer useful, no longer serving your highest good, serving your growth as a person and as a spirit?
Bring in the white light energy... and SAY TO IT - "I release all unnecessary connections back into the universe, with unconditional love." Know that the energy of those connections that is right now doing nothing but holding you back is going to be repurposed and directed towards someone else's highest good now. And let go.
When you truly let something go out of your energy field, when you stop sucking it back in all the time, even if you're surrounded by it, it no longer disturbs you, because it's not inside you.
So keep weeding until your garden stops being soil that accepts those kinds of seeds. Your energy is programmable. You can teach yourself a new way to be, where things do not grow in you that you do not need.
We're digging into the sacral plexus chakra. We've released the excess connections that are unnecessary and holding up progress. Now it's time to clean up the mess that came from being stuck.
Again, bring in the light that we talked about, and let it wash through the entire chakra, cleansing, balancing, soothing.
Let it remove any stuck energy, and when you feel it's a nice, strong, stable orange, we can move on to the channels above it.
It should also get a pulse to it.
Remember to draw that light all the way through, front to back.The opening that draws in, to the opening that pushes out. The front of the chakra - which is actually your back.
So the next step is to connect to the five channels moving to the solar plexus. The two that cross below the sacral and above the sacral (outer ida and pingala) the two that connect from the solar to the sacral (inner ida and pingala) and the central channel that flows up from the root through the sacral and now through the solar plexus (sushumni) all need to be checked and cleaned with the light.
The outer ida and pingala wrap around the chakra system like a DNA helix.
The inner ida and pingala, whose energies ALSO flow downwards, simply leap from chakra to chakra. The Sushumni, whose energies flow upwards is a river bed that gathers chakra energies like tributaries as it heads for the point above the crown where it fountains.
Both ida and both pingala nadirs terminate below your feet. They flow down your legs, and your arms. But that's really technical and you don't need to worry about it with a general cleansing.
The solar plexus is your center. It is your essential sense of SELF - just as the root is your sense of your body, the solar plexus is your sense of YOU. It is the seat of your self-confidence, and all your actions. Your belief about what you are capable or not capable of doing in the world comes from here. It's all about achievable personal power. Willpower.
Having this chakra clear means you are able to be courageous, and take pleasure in your own accomplishments.
If you have issues with this chakra, you will tend to be a wallflower, but not in a positive way. An overactive chakra can make you egotistical and narcisstic. An underactive solar plexus will make you a professional doormat.
The chakra petals are an energetic fibbonaci sequence. 4, 6, 10, 12, 18, 3, 1000. lol
Time to bring on the light
The difference between the upper and lower chakras which separates them is that the lower chakras all deal with your physical self. The upper chakras all deal with your perceptions and interactions with the outside world. The root is your body, the sacral plexus is sex and relationships. The solar plexus is your views about yourself and your ability to act in the world
The heart is all about how you sense the world. The throat is all about how you communicate with that world. The Third Eye is all about how you see the world, and the crown is how your spirit connects to the spirits of the world. So all the upper chakras are externally focused.
Remember yesterday when I showed you how to open your perceptions, either by touch or by inward sight, to view your chakras?
Connect to your heart chakra. The heart chakra has 12 petals, is green with a rose outline around the outside, and as I said, is the seat of your emotional senses about the world around you.
This is how you interact intuitively with the world. The Third Eye is Sight - but the Heart is FEEL. There's no point in being able to see the word if you can't feel what your seeing actually means.
The heart chakra is also about love - but not just self-love, but being able to give and receive love with others, and the wider world.
When you are connected to your heart chakra, remember what I told you about connecting to the light that is the most balanced for you, the most attuned to your own highest good and your best purpose. This isn't about white light, or anything like that. It's about aligning yourself with your truest nature, your best balance, your most perfect you. Connect to the light that creates you as you create yourself... the blueprint, I suppose. It's not going to be the light that anyone else is. It's your light. Which means that if you work better with shadow - it will have the taste of shadow. It's your light.
So bring that into you... and let it wash through the chakra. Remember that we're going from the opening of the chakra in your back, and out the front. Let that energy wash through your chakra, setting everything to rights.
Look at what your heart chakra is right now... and then bring that intent in, and let that intent come through and fix everything up. And keep doing that until you know that your heart chakra is the best color and feel it can be.
You INTEND to connect to the light that is for your own highest vibrational good. The light that is the best light for you, and for your healing. When you put your mind into an intention, the very act of saying, "THIS is what I want," is enough to call it to you. You are using a function of magickal WILL.
You are WILLING A CHANGE TO OCCUR. You are WILLING A CONNECTION TO A TYPE OF ENERGY.
This is why I suggest that while this kind of basic healing can be done by most people, real healing that can be used for others shouldn't be done by just anyone, but someone who really knows how to keep their intentions pure.
Your heart chakra is between your nipples on your sternum.
Some people will feel it a bit lower, some a bit higher, but generally, it's in the middle there. The thing is that the heart chakra isn't actually a single chakra. It's actually 7 chakras starting at the base of the sternum and climbing upwards in sequence to the hollow of your throat.
The throat is located just over your adam's apple. Women and men have them - just feel for it if you're a chick, because it's not physically as obvious as in men. The throat chakra is a blue that is very changeable, but is frequently a whiteish blue - a pale blue to sometimes turquiose color. It has 16 petals. The throat rules vocality. It is "I Speak," so is all about speaking your personal truth. Not THE truth - but your PERSONAL truth. If you're not into self-expression, you probably have a muddy or even blocked chakra here.
The throat is all about communication, both within and without. If you don't listen to yourself, or you don't listen to others, if you don't speak deeply or honestly, if you avoid confrontation or prevaricate... you have an issue here.
Because the throat is all about speaking your truth, any time where you are deceiving yourself, this chakra is going to take the fall... and because it's smaller than some of the other chakras, when it falls, your whole outlook on the world falls with it. A recursive chakra here will actually turn you into a mouse just as much as a poorly developed solar plexus. They often feed each other.
Not angry confrontation, but... have you ever felt something deeply, and ignored your feelings because you wanted to keep the peace around you, or didn't want to deal with confrontations with your friends or family? That's a throat chakra issue. Speaking your truth is about speaking those feelings - not about shoving them in people's faces, or about forcing them to your way... the throat is all about letting EVERYONE have their personal truth, as long as they let you have yours.
If you refuse to speak up when there are issues, calmly and clearly, but just clam up instead and put up with things that don't work for you, you're going to have all kinds of addictions that are about jamming that chakra up. It's not about speaking what you think. It's not about speaking what you're taught to think. It's about standing up for what your soul believes to be true. Standing up for your heart.
When you speak from a spiritual place, you speak calmly, and you state your thoughts and feelings, and then you let go. It's not aggressive, it doesn't hurt others, or if it does, it's only because of their attachments to lies, not because you are deliberately hurting them. You speak your truth and let it go. That is how to keep the throat chakra pure.
I tell people in situations where they cannot speak, that they must remain true to themselves, and speak the truth to themselves. They must be as honest as they can be with others, they must be honest in their actions... and whatever they cannot be honest about, they must be honest somewhere else. Tell a tree. Tell a sheet of paper. Whisper it to the wind. Tell the truth to something. It will help.
So now, connect to your throat chakras, and see what they are doing. If you see any blurring or blemishes, any places that are too dark, ask them why, what are they withholding. Listen to your truth. When you are ready... bathe it in that light, and cleanse it.
If your throat chakra is hurting you, ask it why, where the blockage is, or where you are underactive or overactive, and what you need to do to resolve it. That's one thing that people seldom do that they really should do the most... talk to your chakras. ASK THEM TO TELL YOU WHAT'S GOING ON
Time to work on the third eye. The first thing you all need to know is... it's not your third eye.
Your third eye is indigo, and has two petals. It rules the unseen world, the inner world, but also the astral world. What you see in your mind and what you see with magickal and psychic senses comes from here... but only what you SEE. Secondly, the third eye is actually the fifth eye. It's located in the center of your forehead. Below it is your fourth eye, below which is your third eye at the bridge of your nose, and then your second eye is your left eye, and your first eye is your right. Above the fifth eye, you have two more eyes, the last one being at the hairline.
The fifth eye is also vastly different from your other chakras in that it is centered in the middle of your brain, in darkness, and also in that it's start is on your forehead, and it's petals bloom out the back of your head... so when working with this charka, instead of going from the back of your body to the front, you go from the front of your face to the back of your skull.
So everyone knows what the "third eye" looks like and what it does and where it's located? At the curve of the skull as it heads towards the crown. Think... if you put your hair in a ponytail, it would be around that area. Hair is actually the third eye's antenna
When you feel you have learned about any possible dysfunction, make a note to yourself about what's going on and a solution... and then bring in the light to cleanse it. Remember that with this chakra, you go from the forehead to the back of the skull and out, not from the back of the skull out the forehead.
The final chakra is the crown chakra. It's located at the fontinel of your skull. It is VERY large, larger than your hand. It has 1000 petals, and is white and purple. It covers from the hairline at your forehead, a whole cap around the top of your skull. The crown is all about knowledge.
The crown is all about being calm, being strong, knowing your own self and your own way. It's also about being deeply connected with universal oneness. It's about being in tune with everything in the world. The crown touches everything, and then the eye and the heart interpret it, and feed that interpretation back into the crown for you to understand.
Everyone, connect to your crown now, and look for any issues, or anything that you're doing RIGHT... because the crown is all about rightness.
Keep in mind that the crown isn't about losing sight of yourself, or losing your own boundaries or definitions of self. It's not about becoming nothing. The crown is the seat of yourself, as you fit in the universe, just as much as it's the seat of the universe as it fits in yourself.
A lot of people who work the LHP tend to think that the upper chakras will pull them off that path... that isn't the case. If anything, the upper chakras can refine how they decide to act, by telling them about how they think and feel about the outside world, and how it returns the favor - they reinforce choice, rather than taking it away and forcing universal connections. You can't force something that is omnipresent. You are in the universe. You can't get more connected than that.
One last thing... ask your crown how your connections to source and yourself are. Ask to see those connections and make sure they are all in, and functioning correctly.
When you've all connected to your crowns, and made sure that everything you need to know is understood, bring in the light, and this time, wash it from your crown, all the way down to the soles of your feet and into the earth. At the SAME time, bring a SECOND light up from the core of the earth... and run it through your root and all the way up, out your crown, and into the center of the universe. When you feel completely refreshed, balanced, poised between heaven and earth... you can relax, center, ground, and call it done.
I told you I was tired and would forget something... If everyone would check their idas and pingalas and sushumni from their sacral up, that would be a good thing. Run the light through all five channels.
Close your eyes after reading this, and look for the root chakra. It will probably look a bit fuzzy. You're looking for a reddish orb of energy that has four petals around it.
Another way to check your chakras is by feel. You have chakras in your palm. You can ask your spirit guides to open them, and rub your hands very briskly together for a few moments.

If anything, the upper chakras can refine how they decide to act, by telling them about how they think and feel about the outside world, and how it returns the favor - they reinforce choice, rather than taking it away and forcing universal connections. You can't force something that is omnipresent. You are in the universe. You can't get more connected than that.
One last thing... ask your crown how your connections to source and yourself are. Ask to see those connections and make sure they are all in, and functioning correctly.
When you've all connected to your crowns, and made sure that everything you need to know is understood, bring in the light, and this time, wash it from your crown, all the way down to the soles of your feet and into the earth. At the SAME time, bring a SECOND light up from the core of the earth... and run it through your root and all the way up, out your crown, and into the center of the universe. When you feel completely refreshed, balanced, poised between heaven and earth... you can relax, center, ground, and call it done.
I told you I was tired and would forget something... If everyone would check their idas and pingalas and sushumni from their sacral up, that would be a good thing. Run the light through all five channels.
