We’re Going 5D, Why Bother Working With First 7 Chakras?

I have been thinking about this for some time now, as we are shifting to 5D consciousness, I had seen a group discussion on FB on the topic that since we are striving for 5D why bother working with the first 7 chakras when we should be working with the chakras above Soul Star.

I did not partake in the discussion at the time (months ago, can no longer find where I seen it) however, I have went within and found my answers.

Chakras 1-7 reside in the body, the Root and Crown bridging us to Upper and Lower Worlds, chakras 8-13 are in our Auric field

First, before working with chakras 8-13 and above, I have some self-reflective questions.  What is the condition of your chakras between the Earth and Soul Star chakras? Are they functioning at optimal levels? Do you work with them everyday, or on a scheduled weekly routine? Are they under- or over-active, spinning out of control or not spinning at all?

This is why we work with the “basic” chakras. Because a lot of people do not work with their chakras often enough, because we still have blockages and barriers. When the lower chakras in our body and the ones emanating into the Earth are not functioning, or experiencing blockages, we are not grounded in this Earth and this reality. Pushing to work with higher dimension chakras when not properly grounded leaves us with our “head in the clouds,” we walk around detached and in some other world, in Shamanic terms you would appear delusional and psychotic.

We’re in this realm for a reason

Remember, we incarnated in this realm for a reason. Working with the chakras in this realm is part of that purpose. To be striving to get away from this realm is to deny your purpose and true path. It will leave you feeling frustrated, and create a “spiritual addiction,” where the astral, lucid dreaming, etc., becomes a form of escape rather than a place to do lightwork.

We also do not want that line to higher realms constantly wide open. It is okay, and recommended to leave the Crown and Root chakras just slightly ajar, it is not advisable to completely shut them off. We are energy conduits, and to completely shut the Crown or Root, it’s like kinking a hose, pressure builds and eventually the dam will break.

If we are unable to adeptly control and manipulate the chakras within our physical body, we don’t have the capabilities to adeptly work with the other chakras. My opinion. So, we work with these chakras then move along to the higher realms, so that when we are in the higher realms, the info can prove useful, and we aren’t just floating around the astral and etheric worlds aimlessly. It might be fun and feel good, but it is not useful.

Taking time for your spirituality is important

Take the time – even if only 2 minutes to start with – every day for your spirituality, if that 2 minutes can be used to focus on a chakra, simply giving the chakra attention in the form of a red candle for Root and imagining roots going into Earth while lighting the candle, or wearing green and seeing your heart chakra expanding when you dress, can make a world of difference in your practice. You are not a Tibetan monk, you do not need to spend 12 hours in meditation in order to honour your spirituality.

When working with the 7 main chakras becomes second nature, the higher chakras will be easier to navigate and making the shift to 5D will flow more smoothly and you may find that ascension symptoms won’t hit as hard.

Tarot Tuesday – February 21, 2017

Today’s featured deck is Steven D. Farmer’s Messages From Your Animal Spirit Guides Oracle Cards

Back in 2014 this was the first oracle deck that I received.  Prior to that I only worked with tarot.  Oracle cards were a new-to-me thing.  I had asked the Universe for signs of my power animal, long story short, this deck popped out to me one day at Chapters, it wasn’t even in the right section, which worked out for me!

Septarian and Clear Quartz Crystals shown with deck

Ladybug
“This is a time of good fortune and abundance, so be willing to receive all good things in your life.”

The ladybug is small, yet mighty.  Things are happening, and quickly.  This card is definitely resonating with what I see in the collective.  The veil between the worlds, the separation between the physical and astral used to only thin during certain times of the year, such as Beltaine or Samhain.  However, lately the veil has been thinning over the years.  In a nutshell: we are manifesting things quicker than ever.

The Ladybug reminds us to be observant and careful with our thoughts.  Focus on what we want.  Focus on our goals.  If we get stuck focusing and thinking about what we lack, looking to our have-nots, well… that’s what’s going to manifest in our lives.  Be grateful for your blessings, no matter how small.  Gratitude is key to continually receiving good fortune, joy, and abundance.  Ask for what you want and graciously accept all that comes your way.

Can you feel what it’s like when you think of having it already?

Get as clear and concise as you can when asking the Universe to help you fulfill a goal or obtain a want.  The Universe not only has a sense of humour, but can also manifest things quite literally.  Once you have defined what you want, feel that it is yours, feel that happiness, excitement, elation that you know you will feel once that thing is yours.  Go ahead and thank the Universe for providing it.  Remember, sometimes the Universe needs to shift things around to get you what you want, this may mean placing you in an uncomfortable situation for a short time, until things are ready for you to get to a better place.
Be willing to flow with the energy of the Universe, the cosmos, Mother Earth.  When you start moving with the natural cycles of the Earth magic happens.

The Ladybug is anything but meek

Ladybugs look cute.  Even their name is the cutest thing ever.  Don’t let their cute exterior fool you.  These mighty little creatures have no moral compass.  I’m not getting into the licentious and immoral life of a ladybug here.  However, how I take this fact when I receive this card is that not everything is as it seems.  Which solidifies that idea that the Universe sometimes needs to move us to a spot, or give us things that we don’t want in order to give us better things that we do want.  
We have many layers as a human, just like the ladybug.  We can look cute, have a hard exterior, walk, fly, and bite someone’s head off should you get on our bad side.  It’s a ladybug-eat-ladybug world out there, and the sooner you realize that YOU are the artist and life is a creation of your expression, the sooner you’re going to like the picture you see.  Don’t let lack and have-nots hold you back, keeping manifesting for the best!

Brightest Blessings,
Phoenix Rose

2017: New Year New You… Or Are We Back to More of the Same?

It has been said that by around January 15th people give up on their resolutions, often because they made one failure, had one cheat day on their diet, smoked a cigarette, the list goes on.  Upon hearing this statistic I was determined not to allow that to happen to me, call it determination or stubbornness, either way upon reaching the Jan 15th date…. Things seemed to pick up momentum!  It was absolutely fabulous to have such a positive push despite any failures up until this point.

There are big changes coming for my family and my business this year.  I know, I know, since creating this blog there has been nothing but changes around here.  I set on a journey to answer things like “what is magic?” and “how to incorporate a spiritual life into the mundane world?” I have been doing nothing but learning about how it all works, and how to work it all.

If you have given up on your “New Me for 2017” due to what you see as failures, mistakes, set backs, please take time to self-reflect on that.  First, get to know yourself, not the new you that you want to be, the You that you are Now.  What resonates for you in making positive changes towards a better version of yourself?  What will move you towards being more of the You that you want to be?  Every little step counts, even if there are set backs, every day is a new day.  Continue to work towards those goals.  Every little step is still a forward motion.  So, don’t sweat the “more of the same” and utilize it as motivation in directing you towards manifesting for the best!

Much Love

The Collective Effects Us Whether We Are Aware or Not

When I say “collective” I am referring to the collective consciousness of this Earth, perhaps even the entire Universe.  I have seen it work through many people that have no awareness of the other person.  Think of it in terms like this, how two people on opposite ends of the earth can come up with very similar ideas and inventions, even before the internet this phenomenon was happening.

There was a lot of synchronicity last week for Root / Base chakra energy and healing.  I decided to run a workshop with some close friends.  It turns out many of them had the same thoughts on the chakra work, then it started popping up that others were running similar workshops!  It’s really amazing when you think about it.

This week we are running Sacral chakra energy and healing.  The theme comes again, running through many different channels.  People working on masculine/feminine energies, someone randomly deciding to paint a wall orange.  People are getting more in touch with their creative sides, and gaining confidence.  I know I can feel the creative juices flowing.

Lake Ontario, Kingston, ON

Above picture is one of the lake shores where my hubby and I collect driftwood and smooth stones.  Again, the creative juices are flowing, and there will be more items added to the Etsy store, crafted by the gifts given from Mother Nature herself.  We are simply the vessels which the divine flows through.  The Sacral chakra is our life center, it feeds us joy and spontaneity, it is our creative energy… and now is the time that creativity needs to be expressed, so our energies can flow.

Lake Ontario, Kingston, ON

It is hard to make out some of what it written on this stone.  But one thing that was clear to me… “love is the magic.”  
What have you noticed in the collective?  Feeling any of the creative energy that’s flowing?
Brightest Blessings,
Phoenix Rose
