There are thousands of chakras located in the ethereal body.  Chakra is a Sanskrit word that means wheel or turning.  They are energy centers, force centers, subtle matter or light.  They are usually shown as flower-like, saucer shaped depressions, or wheel-like vortices that receive, assimilate and express our life force energy.  Since various areas of the physical body need development and maintenance, the chakras take in this vital energy and transforms it.  

There are seven major chakras within the immortal body or the light body.  These seven major chakras are located along the spine at some of the nervous system's major branchings.  They begin at the base of the spinal column and move upward toward the skull.  These chakras open toward the front of the body like a flower or blossom and are constantly moving, rotating, or attracting energy to radiate or receive. 

Root Chakra

Color red.  The root chakra is located in the perineum at the base of the spine below the genitals, above the anus inside the coccyx and at the first three vertebrae.  This chakra forms our foundation and is related to our survival instincts, family, tribe, our sense of grounding and connection to our bodies and the physical plane.  The root chakra brings health and security.

Sacral Chakra

Color orange.  The sacral chakra is located in the abdomen, lower back and over the spleen. It is in the solar plexus and genital region.  This chakra connects to emotions and sexuality.  It connects us to others through desire, sensation, movement and feeling.  This chakra brings us fluidity and grace, depth of feeling, sexual fulfillment and the ability to accept change.

Solar Plexus

Color yellow.  The solar plexus chakra is located in the part of the vertebral column that corresponds to the navel region and is known as the power chakra.  It rules our will, personal power, autonomy and metabolism.  If healthy it will bring us energy, spontaneity, non-dominating power and effectiveness.  

Heart Chakra

Color green/or pink.  The heart chakra is located in the area of the heart cavity in the center of the breast and is the middle chakra in the system of seven.  This chakra is a bridge between the other chakras.  It is related to love and the ability to love deeply, feel compassion and empathy, forgive ourselves and others and have a deep sense of peace and centeredness.  

Throat Chakra

Color blue.  The throat chakra is located in the throat region and is related to effective communication including speech and writing.  In the throat chakra we experience the world through vibration, such as the vibration of sound representing language.  It is the ability to speak our truth about ourselves and with others.  It is also living in truth. 

Third Eye

Color indigo.  The third eye chakra is located in the forehead between the eyebrows and is associated with the pineal gland.  It is related to seeing, both physically and intuitively.  It also opens our psychic abilities.  It allows us to see clearly, in effect, letting us see the big picture and everything around and about ourselves.  It is seeing what is truly there, not what we want to see.  

Crown Chakra

Color violet.  The crown chakra is located above the third eye in the center of the forehead or in the pineal gland, behind the pituitary gland.  This chakra is our connection to Mother Father God, the greater world beyond, alternate realities/dimensions, spiritual connections to our ancestors, guardian angels and loved ones in the light.  It is a timeless and spaceless place of all-knowing.  When developed this chakra brings us knowledge, wisdom, understanding and bliss.

 

Our chakras create our aura or electro-magnetic field and reveal the state of our mental/emotional health.

Kundalini Reiki is done in person.  During hands on sessions, the client lays on a table, fully clothed while the practitioner lays hands on either their shoulders, head, upper arms, knees or feet.  Sessions last about 1 1/2 hrs.  It should always be explained by the practitioner what will happen before, during and after a healing session.

It is important that the client know they will have to process their emotions during their first three sessions after they leave.  They may also feel a deep desire to be alone.  The beauty of Reiki is the healing does not only occur on the table.  The true work occurs after the sessions in the processing of what will arrive in the client. 

At first it may seem strange or the client may forget what is happening is due to their Kundalini Reiki sessions.  It is most beneficial to engage in some form of self expression to process what is being shown to the client such as painting, journaling, exercising, etc.  Journaling is wonderful at this time, especially to keep track of progress. 

Those receiving these energy attunements have reported feeling heat/or energy in various areas of their body, visions or have fallen into a deep relaxing sleep.  If you fall asleep this is good!  We are all different and everybody does not have the same experiences.  Not feeling anything does not mean the Kundalini energy is not flowing! 

Kundalini Reiki supports a positive, uplifting lifestyle, so it cannot be blamed on the practitioner, if they are a good practitioner, if the client feels absolutely no changes whatsoever after their sessions or if the positive feelings are not sustained.  For optimum healing it is recommended that new clients receive three Kunalini Reiki healing sessions within one week of the other, then tune-ups at their leisure.
