It’s All About Energy | by Pam McDonel | September 2024

Own Your Sacred Space

Last month we discovered making a sacred space and items to place in that area. If you missed the article, check it out HERE. Those items you gathered, and others that you add, can be used to create an alter - a sacred place - a way to connect with your spirituality. Use it to focus as you do your prayer, meditation, journaling, or journeying. Remember the frequency music, too! Your altar is a living, breathing energy so add or remove items as may be appropriate for you.

The Chakra System

This month we are going to explore the Chakra System and some of it’s properties. The Chakra System is a complex and ancient energy system originating from India’s sacred Vedic texts of spiritual knowledge. If you are new to this, Chakras are the energy centers or “wheels” that reside along the spine. These wheels or disks spin and correspond to bundles of nerves, major organs, and areas of our energetic body that affect our emotions and physical well-being. When the energy of the chakras are flowing freely these physical areas or body parts work efficiently. When these chakras are sluggish they can become compromised and make us ill.

Although more, there are 7 major chakras inside the body we are going to explore in this article. While there is so much more about each of these, I give you a basic traditional introduction.

Root or 1st Chakra - This center lies at the base of the spine and related to our physical identity, stability, and grounding.

Sacral or 2nd Chakra - This center lies just above the pelvic bone and below the bellybutton and is associated with sexuality, pleasure, and creativity.

Solar Plexus or 3rd Chakra - This center lies above the bellybutton and below the heart and relates to our self-esteem and confidence.

Heart or 4th Chakra - This center lies in the chest just above the physical heart and represents love and compassion. It sits in the center of the chakras, bridges the gap between the lower and upper three chakras, and connects us to others.

Throat or 5th Chakra - This center is located at the throat and affects our ability to communicate verbally.

Third Eye or 6th Chakra - This chakra is located in the middle of the forehead just above the eyebrows and is associated with our intuition and imagination.

Crown or 7th Chakra - This chakra is located on top of the head in the center and is associated with our awareness, intelligence, and enlightenment. This center is linked to all the other chakras and every organ in this system. It also affects the brain and nervous system. It represents a connection to our higher self, life purpose, and spirituality.

This is just a taste about chakras. To explore more about your chakra system and the modalities in my medicine bag that can help you on your healing frequency journey, please feel free to email me at pam.mcdonel@me.com or visit my website (we are in the process of having a make-over).

Be Well.
