One way to think about our chakras is to consider that the three lower chakras are the energy centers for our masculine energy in the world. These chakras hold the energies to ground, manifest, create/ procreate as well as relate to our tribe of origin and all of the others we meet in our lives.
The upper three chakras are about our feminine energies with a focus on knowing our truth, living in alignment with this intuition, experiencing our oneness with all life and moving towards union with Divinity.
This leaves the heart chakra smack dab in the middle. It is the place where the masculine and feminine meet in an expression of our unique soul purpose and love.
Here at the heart we balance the masculine energies of the three lower chakras and the feminine energies of the three upper chakras by moving and connecting all these energies through the divine transformer of the heart chakra.
While the individual chakras spin like whirling galaxies within us, the movement of energies between the upper half and the lower half of our energy system can be represented by a figure eight with its unceasing movement of all things into and out of manifestation.
Our first Venus Garden was called the Eight Garden. This garden helped us bring Green Hope Farm and our Flower Essences into manifestation.
The summer of the Eight Garden was the one year the Angels asked us to open the farm to visitors, During that summer we began each day in silence, sitting at the crossover point of the figure eight in the Eight Garden. Any visitors and all of us tending gardens crowded into the spot for a blissful experience.
At the time, the center of the eight just felt like a great place to meditate, Later I felt gathering there had helped us release what needed to be released, manifest what we needed for that busy summer . This time also taught us about balancing the energies of our masculine and feminine energies into a constantly evolving dynamic of receiving loving from Divinity and sharing this love with everyone who visited.
During the summer it became clear that our mission beyond that growing season was to share our love and the love of the Flowers in the framework of Flower Essences. Sitting at the heart of the Eight Garden had helped us bring our masculine and feminine energies into a balance of receiving guidance, love and light and sharing what we had learned through the gardens and the Flower Essences.
When you go to the Find a Flower Essence page, it offers Topics as a way to search for a Flower Essences. Chakras are one of the choices under topics. Under Chakras, we’ve listed each chakra on its own page. On each Chakras page we have listed Flower Essences we feel are linked to helping to solve the specific challenges of that chakra.
For example, the first chakra page starts with a rectangular tab that has a brief descriptions of chakras in general followed by a tablet about the first chakra, it gifts and spiritual challenges then we have tablets of Flower Essences linked to the first chakra.
The new Elephant Trunk Loosestrife is an Essence listed on the First chakra list as it helps us find harmony in our planetary herd.
As each of us must balance our masculine and feminine energy regardless of gender, thinking about which aspect of ourselves needs support is one way to search through the chakra listings. If we have a lot of intuitive understanding of our lives but are having a hard time bringing these ideas into form, looking at the first three chakras might be a way to begin. If we are busy in the world but not clear about what our divine work is, the upper chakras might be a place to begin.
The information on the specific tablet for each chakra is detailed even though quite short. When I have an injury or am ill, I try to run it through the filter of which chakra is involved and what the concern of the chakra is. Each chakra tablet lists in brief the color, issues, spiritual task, corresponding part of the physical body and some of the physical challenges that may crop up when we are working to unblock or increase the light moving through a specific chakra. Here is the fifth chakra tablet for example.
The section closes with one called Alignment. This group of Flower Essences here help us line up all the chakra into a smoothly running integrated system.
Snapdragon is one on the Alignment page. Its tall straight stalks reflect how it helps us align our column of seven whirling chakras.
A great deal of high vibration energy is coming into the planet for us right now. I find it helpful to consider that when we have a physical symptom somewhere in our bodies, it may reflect a temporary energetic blockage in a chakra that is making it hard for this energy to move through this part of our systems. By using Flower Essences connected to this chakras, we can focus on physical healing as well as support ourselves about the spiritual issues co-exisiting with the physical challenge.
For example, if I had a sprained ankle, this might be my process- Hmmm….a sprained ankle- this is a first chakra issue so what is going on with my roots or relationship with my tribe of origin or the community I now live in? Am I feelings safe and grounded in my life or wondering about my right to be me in my community or move forward in my life in the way I need to move forward? Having zeroed in on these concerns, I would look at the possible Flower Essences listed as focused on the issues of the first chakra and choose the ones that called out to me either because of their descriptions, their appearance or because something is pulling me to that Flower Essence..
To complicate things a bit, I also think of the left side of the body as linked to our feminine lineage and the right side of the body as linked to our male lineage, so if it were a sprained ankle on my left side I would consider what issues of perhaps guilt, worry, doubt or judgment I might have taken on from my maternal line that I need to work to toss while I take my Flower Essences. This layered approach would help me more confidently move forward, feeling secure in my connection to life regardless of how others experience my choices.
Right now, in so many situations, thinking about the chakras is a very helpful tool for unblocking energetic blockages within us that are temporarily impeding the full movement of all this lovely light and love flooding into the planet to bless each and every one of us.
You deserve to fill up to the brim with this lovely light, and Flower Essences can help us do this!
This light is for ALL OF US and that includes you!
