Healthy & Blocked Energy

A healthy and open CROWN chakra means all blockages in any other chakras are dissolved, for you are truly open and connected with yourself and the divine. You are a vessel through which the universe’s energy can flow without any interference from ego and are at one with all that is.

When clear, it enables one to see the truth concerning ideals, materialistic pursuits, self-limiting concepts, pride, and vanity; it further allows one to experience continuous self-awareness and conscious detachment from personal emotions.

Blockages in the CROWN chakra mean you indecisive, have a sense of not belonging and feel fatigued. You may have no lust for life and addictions are common. Physically you may experience headaches, pituitary problems, braintumors, epilepsy and cancer.

 

"Nature is an infinite sphere in which the center is everywhere, the circumference is nowhere."

Blaise Pascal (1623-1662)
