Explain the basics: CHAKRA
While witchcraft and chakras come from different spiritual traditions, some modern witches blend the two by incorporating energy work from Eastern practices. Even though chakras aren't originally part of witchcraft, understanding them can guide us toward areas where we need to heal or deepen our spiritual practice. Recognizing and working with chakras can help us open up more fully to the spiritual world.
What Are Chakras and How Do They Work?
Chakras might sound mystical, but they're essentially energy centers within your body. The concept comes from ancient Indian traditions like Hinduism and Buddhism. The word "chakra" means "wheel" in Sanskrit, representing spinning energy that flows through us. There are seven main chakras, and each one plays a unique role in your physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being.
Let’s break them down:
Root Chakra (Muladhara): Located at the base of your spine, this chakra is all about feeling grounded and secure. It relates to your basic needs—think survival, safety, and stability.
Sacral Chakra (Svadhisthana): Just below your belly button, this chakra governs your emotions, creativity, and sexual energy. It's about pleasure and how you connect with others.
Solar Plexus Chakra (Manipura): Right around your stomach, this one is your center of personal power. Confidence, self-esteem, and willpower are all connected here.
Heart Chakra (Anahata): In the middle of your chest, the heart chakra is all about love—both for yourself and others. It’s where compassion, kindness, and emotional balance reside.
Throat Chakra (Vishuddha): At your throat, this chakra is linked to communication and self-expression. It’s your voice—literally and metaphorically.
Third Eye Chakra (Ajna): Between your eyebrows, this one taps into intuition and spiritual insight. It’s the seat of your inner wisdom.
Crown Chakra (Sahasrara): Located at the top of your head, this chakra connects you to the universe, spiritual consciousness, and enlightenment.
How Do Chakras Work?
Think of your chakras as energy hubs. They take in, distribute, and release energy throughout your body, influencing everything from your mood to your physical health. When they’re in balance, you feel good—physically, emotionally, and mentally. But when a chakra is blocked or overactive, it can cause problems like stress, anxiety, or even illness.
For example, if your heart chakra is blocked, you might struggle with feelings of isolation or difficulty in relationships. But if it’s open and balanced, you’ll feel connected, loved, and able to give love freely.
Does Chakra Energy Flow Inside Us?
Yes, chakra energy flows within you. It’s often called "prana" (life force) or "chi" in other traditions. This energy moves through channels in the body called "nadis." When prana flows freely, you feel balanced and vibrant. But if there’s a blockage—like emotional stress or physical tension—it can disrupt the flow and lead to imbalances in your life.
The good news is that there are plenty of practices to help keep your energy flowing, like yoga, meditation, and breathwork. These tools help clear any blockages and ensure your chakras are in harmony, allowing you to feel more centered and connected in daily life.
Some practice that may include chakra in it:
Understanding Chakras: In Eastern spiritual traditions, particularly in Hinduism and Buddhism, chakras are believed to be energy centers in the body. There are typically seven main chakras, running from the base of the spine to the crown of the head, each associated with specific physical, emotional, and spiritual aspects.
Energy Work in Witchcraft: Many forms of witchcraft involve working with energy, whether for healing, spellcasting, or spiritual transformation. Practitioners may visualize, manipulate, or direct energy in rituals and practices.
Possible Connections: Some modern witches who also work with chakras might integrate chakra practices into their witchcraft rituals. For example:
Aligning Energies: They may use chakra meditation or visualization techniques to balance their own energy before performing rituals or spells.
Correspondences: Each chakra is associated with certain qualities (like creativity, intuition, or grounding). A witch might choose rituals or spells that correspond with the qualities of a specific chakra to enhance their magical work.
Personal Pathways: It’s important to note that the way chakras are integrated into witchcraft practices can vary widely depending on individual beliefs and traditions. Some may view chakras strictly through the lens of their original cultural and spiritual context, while others may adapt these concepts in a more eclectic or personalized manner.
Your Self-Love Map
“The Way Back To Yourself”
This is not just a healing map. It is your return path for the days you feel:
lost,
emotionally abandoned,
disconnected from yourself,
anxious,
hypervigilant,
spiritually confused,
emotionally guarded,
or mentally overwhelmed.
Your entire system repeatedly points toward one central truth:
You were never meant to become harder to survive life. You were meant to become safer within yourself.
Everything else branches from this.
Your Core Wound Pattern
At the deepest level, your system carries a repeating fear:
“If I soften too much, I will lose myself, lose safety, be betrayed, misunderstood, abandoned, overwhelmed or emotionally consumed.”
So your nervous system learned to survive through:
hypervigilance,
overthinking,
emotional guarding,
self-protection,
control,
preparedness,
intensity,
analysis,
and self-containment.
But your soul is actually designed for:
depth,
intimacy,
creativity,
expression,
softness,
emotional honesty,
meaning,
beauty,
wisdom,
and authentic connection.
So your healing journey is not:
becoming someone new.
It is:
teaching your body, mind and heart that it is finally safe to become who you already are.
Your Personal Compass
Whenever you feel lost, return to these 7 checkpoints.
1. Root Chakra
“Am I Safe Right Now?”
Your nervous system tends to confuse:
pressure,
urgency,
hyper-alertness,
overpreparing,
and anxiety
with safety.
But your real healing begins when you understand:
calm is not danger.
When You Are Dysregulated:
You may:
overthink,
catastrophize,
anticipate danger,
obsessively prepare,
feel chest anxiety,
emotionally spiral,
or feel unable to rest.
Your Return Path:
Do not immediately analyze emotions.
First:
regulate the body,
slow down,
ground physically,
create predictability.
Daily Practices
warm drinks,
structured routines,
walking,
stretching,
body grounding,
cleaning your space,
nourishing meals,
reducing overstimulation,
consistent sleep.
Reminder
“I do not need to stay tense to stay safe.”
2. Sacral Chakra
“What Actually Brings Me Alive?”
You are learning that joy does not need permission.
Your system tends to turn:
pleasure into guilt,
rest into laziness,
creativity into productivity,
and softness into vulnerability.
But your sacral energy opens when you experience life instead of constantly monitoring it.
Signs You Are Disconnected:
emotional numbness,
exhaustion,
over-seriousness,
lack of desire,
hyper-control,
inability to enjoy the moment.
Your Return Path:
Ask:
“What feels nourishing, warm, playful or emotionally alive?”
Not:
“What is the most responsible thing?”
Daily Practices
music,
movement,
dancing,
hobbies,
sensual rituals,
laughter,
beauty,
affection,
art,
good food,
creative play,
hobbies without productivity goals.
Reminder
“Pleasure is not something I must earn through suffering.”
3. Solar Plexus Chakra
“Is My Worth Tied To Survival?”
You carry immense willpower and emotional endurance.
But you often unconsciously equate worth with:
being useful,
being strong,
enduring pain,
overfunctioning,
or holding everything together.
Your healing begins when power becomes:
calm instead of force.
Signs You Are Dysregulated:
emotional guarding,
anger suppression,
resentment,
burnout,
overexplaining,
emotional exhaustion,
difficulty receiving help.
Your Return Path:
Ask:
“What would self-respect look like here?”
Not:
“How much can I tolerate?”
Daily Practices
saying no,
boundary work,
breathwork,
core strengthening,
martial movement,
resting without guilt,
separating your emotions from others.
Reminder
“My worth is inherent, not performance-based.”
4. Heart Chakra
“Am I Abandoning Myself For Love?”
Your heart wants:
depth,
authenticity,
emotional truth,
soulful connection.
But part of you fears:
betrayal,
self-loss,
emotional engulfment,
vulnerability.
So you may:
guard your heart,
overanalyze relationships,
romanticize unavailable people,
or fear calm love.
Your Return Path:
Ask:
“Does this relationship allow me to remain myself?”
Daily Practices
honest journaling,
emotional check-ins,
creative expression,
solitude without isolation,
beauty rituals,
nervous system grounding,
emotionally safe relationships.
Reminder
“Healthy love does not require self-abandonment.”
5. Throat Chakra
“Am I Speaking My Truth Or Protecting Myself?”
Your voice is one of your greatest life tools.
You are meant to:
teach,
write,
explain,
emotionally impact others,
communicate insight.
But fear of misunderstanding can create:
self-editing,
emotional suppression,
overexplaining,
silence,
or emotional flooding after bottling things up.
Your Return Path:
Speak before perfection.
Daily Practices
voice notes,
blogging,
singing,
reading aloud,
honest conversations,
throat activation through sound,
hydration,
direct but compassionate honesty.
Reminder
“I do not need to become smaller to be understood.”
6. Ajna Chakra
“Is My Mind A Sanctuary Or A Battlefield?”
Your mind is brilliant, intuitive and psychologically deep.
But it can become:
obsessive,
hyperanalytical,
emotionally fixated,
or harsh toward yourself.
You often try to “solve” yourself intellectually before allowing yourself compassion.
Your Return Path:
Ask:
“Is my mind supporting me right now or attacking me?”
Daily Practices
journaling,
future-self scripting,
compassionate self-talk,
meditation,
consuming meaningful content,
reducing doomscrolling,
creative writing,
observing thoughts without fusing with them.
Reminder
“I do not need to fully solve myself to deserve love.”
7. Crown Chakra
“Am I Escaping Life Or Deepening Into It?”
Your spirituality is not meant to disconnect you from reality.
It is meant to help you:
inhabit yourself more fully,
trust your intuition,
and find meaning without losing grounding.
Your system is highly intuitive but also highly absorbent.
So you must learn:
grounding before spiritualizing.
Signs You Are Disconnected:
obsessively seeking signs,
fantasy attachment,
spiritual confusion,
emotional escapism,
overidealization.
Your Return Path:
Ask:
“Does this bring me closer to myself or further away from myself?”
Daily Practices
silence,
prayer,
grounding rituals,
dream journaling,
meditation,
nervous system regulation,
solitude,
gratitude,
gentle spirituality,
creative expression.
Reminder
“My intuition becomes clearer when I am grounded.”
Your Overall Life Lesson
You are not here to become:
emotionally invulnerable,
endlessly self-sacrificing,
hyper-independent,
or emotionally numb.
You are here to learn:
safe softness,
embodied self-worth,
grounded intuition,
authentic expression,
emotionally mature love,
and nervous system safety.
Your Emergency Return-To-Self Questions
Whenever you feel emotionally lost, ask:
Root
“What would make me feel physically safer right now?”
Sacral
“What would bring even 1% more aliveness?”
Solar Plexus
“Am I abandoning my needs to maintain control or approval?”
Heart
“Am I being authentic or self-abandoning?”
Throat
“What truth am I afraid to express?”
Ajna
“Is my mind helping me heal or punishing me?”
Crown
“Am I grounding into reality or escaping it?”
Your True Direction
Your path is not becoming less emotional, less deep or less sensitive.
Your path is:
learning how to hold your depth safely.
And every part of your healing keeps pointing toward the same final destination:
A life where your body feels safe, your mind feels compassionate, your heart remains open, your voice stays authentic, and your spirit stays grounded in reality rather than escaping from it.
