Confused,

I'm a red head and I feel people using metaphors, colors, names, words (SPELLS) to what I suspect is steal my life force? Something about the hair.. cursed/blessed. I do not understand. Has anyone had light shed on this before and could help shed some light on it for me to better understand what is happening to me? (One curse I understand is overly fertile) ive been spiritually sex trafficked before and made into someone I'm not because of the words spoken to send me down a hellish path that I do not identify with. Has someone to do with the chakras specifically the red, orange and yellow. Im on a journey to save myself from what's happening to me. My family keeps me in the dark and uses me. And won't give back. Does this make sense to anyone...

Pulse at my third eye

When I sat for meditation I felt continuous pulse between my eyebrows. This has happened before. I don't have any visions or any experiences. Can someone guide what does this pulse means?

Also I had my aura scanning through an expert. He told me my third eye is already open. But I don't have any experiences, just the pulse sometimes.

Unblock throat chakra advice?

Hi all! My throat chakra is blocked and I’m am wondering what I can do to help it.

I know my self expression and self confidence are not great right now. My parents have shut off communication with me, even though I’ve tried desperately to communicate and talk to them. I definitely feel stifled. I have awful writers block and want to heal myself so I can write again:

Thank you.

Chakra colors?

Every time I do chakra meditations, the colors of the chakras are pale pastel around me. But everything I see online or from other people, the colors are very bold and vibrant. But I've never seen them that way. Am I doing something wrong? Or are they colors different for different people?

Why Southeast direction is called fire zone? What is its significance?

Vastu experts call Southeast the Fire zone because according to Vastu principles, this direction is associated with fire zone. This isn’t about a physical flame. It represents every form of energy that creates heat, transformation and action.
Your home is a living body as shown:
The Southeast is like your stomach and metabolism—- it produces the energy that keeps everything running.
Our body needs healthy digestive fire to convert food into energy. In the same way our home needs a balanced fire zone to support activity and productivity.
Also fire represents transformation:-
Raw food becomes cooked.
Ideas become action.
Effort becomes results.
So , activities which involve heat and energy are placed here:- kitchen, cooking appliance, machinery and power system in commercial spaces.
Fire does not mean only flame. It represents:- Motivation,Confidence,decision making,digestion,electricity, technology.
Modern Vastu considers electric equipment’s, investors as a part of fire element.

Think of a gas stove:-
Too little flame— food remains uncooked.
Too much flame— food burns.
Balanced flame- food cooks perfectly.

The goal of Vastu is not to” more fire”— it’s balanced fire.
Southeast is associated with heat( digestion), transformation ( like raw food to cooked food) and action.

Smita( Kostubh Vastu)
“ I don’t change spaces, I activate them.”

The 8th Chakra; the Divine Seed

No doubt you’ve heard about the seven main chakras of the human energy field. But have you taken the time to learn about the eighth?

Let’s start with what’s called the stellar gateway. This is the doorway between your crown chakra and your eighth chakra, sometimes called the soul star. It’s where divine light and energy from the eighth chakra filters down through your crown and moves through the rest of your body. When you fully open to it, you let go and allow that light, sometimes described as a white ray, to fill you and carry you into higher realms.

The symbol connected to this chakra is called the divine seed, or the blue pearl. There’s an old Indian tradition that speaks of a tiny blue light said to be the key to life itself. That light activates once your crown chakra has been opened.

As for color, the eighth chakra is associated with ultraviolet light, which we can’t actually see with normal vision. If you try to picture it, think of a deep violet with green spiraling bands moving through it.

If you’re working with this chakra, there are some higher vibrational crystals that can support you, clear quartz, selenite, and amethyst are good ones to start with if you’re new to this. One thing I’ll say clearly: if you’re opening your eighth chakra, protect your energy. Take clearing baths whenever you feel like something’s impacted you, this center can leave you more sensitive to psychic energy than you’re used to.

So what does it actually mean to open this chakra? The eighth is where higher spiritual perception and deep wisdom live. Working here can bring real change, personally and professionally. You start to move beyond the small self and feel a pull toward something bigger, often a genuine desire to help heal the planet.

When this chakra is closed, you might feel disconnected. Separate from the larger community around you, unclear on your soul’s purpose.
This is also the chakra that holds your karmic residue, old patterns and behaviors you’ve carried with you from other lifetimes. As your consciousness expands beyond this one life, part of the work here is releasing what keeps you clinging to old patterns and cycling on the wheel of reincarnation. Opening the eighth chakra means letting go of the small self and connecting with the larger one, the self that’s part of the whole universe.

If you’ve already got spiritual gifts developing, this is often where you gain access to the Akashic records, the record of lessons you’ve carried from past lives. This is also where you’re likely to meet spiritual guides, angels, and ascended masters, and where your psychic gifts tend to accelerate. Ultimately, it’s the doorway to your higher self, and where you start to understand your soul’s contract and true life purpose.

Has anyone worked with their eighth chakra before, or is this the first you’re hearing about it? I’d love to know what you’ve experienced or if you have any questions.

sometimes “giving your power away” is much more literal than I thought

I used to hear this phrase all the time: “stop giving people your power.”

Usually it sounds like generic self-help language. Dont care what others think, believe in yourself, set boundaries etc. But in one session I saw this idea represented so physically that it changed how I think about it.

This came up while I was guiding a woman I'll call Laura through a deep-trance exploration of why she felt lost, insignificant and had difficulty trusting herself and her abilities.

The first scene looked completely ordinary.

She was younger, outside riding bicycles with her sister and another girl. Her older sister would pick on her and tell her things like she had been “born in a barn.”

Small thing maybe from adult perspective. But the younger Laura didn't experience it as small. She felt sad and not good enough.

When she focused on where this lived in her body, she perceived black energy in two places. In her stomach it looked like a ball. Across her shoulders it looked like a heavy black shawl weighing her down.

She immediately understood what it had been doing.

It stopped her believing in herself and stopped her excelling at things she actually liked.

We first worked with the younger version of her. Adult Laura hugged her, told her she was loved and perfect as she was, and told the sister: what you say about me is yours. I dont accept it.

Then something interesting happened.

I asked her to look at the relationship energetically and notice whether part of her own power had somehow been given to the sister.

She said yes.

The sister actually appeared brighter.

That was such simple image. Somebody criticises you enough, you start believing them, and somehow they become bigger while you become smaller.

So Laura told her firmly: I want my power back.

She immediately began feeling energy moving back into her body. Hands, stomach, shoulders. She said she felt “lit up,” like the energy was flowing back where it belonged.

Then instead of stopping with her sister, we asked Higher Self to show everybody in her life she had given power to.

Around five or six people appeared.

Two former husbands. A friend. A woman connected with the school where she had taught. Other relationships where, consciously or unconsciously, somebody else's opinion, rejection or authority had become more important than her own inner knowing.

She called her power back from all of them.

This time she felt it entering her torso, then her head and face. Her description afterward was very simple:

“I feel that I'm more complete.”

And there is reason I wanted to share this.

I experience strange spiritual imagery and very practical wisdom mixed together like this constantly in these consciousness journeys. It seems pity to keep every useful thing sitting privately in session transcripts, especially when somebody reading may suddenly recognise their own pattern in one small detail.

What I found most useful was what Higher Self said later.

It explained that she had felt lost because she was not trusting herself. After bringing the power back, the message wasn't “become stronger than everybody” or “cut everybody out.”

It was basically: trust yourself. Trust your abilities. There is nothing fundamentally wrong with you.

That makes “giving your power away” much clearer to me.

Maybe sometimes it isn't some dramatic psychic attack. It happens every time another person's judgment becomes more authoritative than what you know about yourself.

Someone tells you you're stupid and twenty years later you still don't apply for something.

Someone rejects you and now their rejection becomes proof you aren't lovable.

A parent, partner, teacher, boss or spiritual authority says “I know better who you are,” and little by little you stop checking with yourself.

They become brighter. You become smaller.

Whether you interpret Laura's experience as literal energy returning, subconscious imagery, parts work, or something spiritual doesn't really change practical lesson.

You can start noticing where your authority went.

Who still lives inside your head even when they are not in the room?

Whose approval changes how you feel about yourself?

Who gets to decide whether you're talented, attractive, spiritual enough, intelligent enough, worthy enough?

And then instead of fighting them, try something simpler: recognise that their judgment belongs to them.

You don't need to carry it.

You can mentally say: this is yours. I dont accept it. I take back my right to decide who I am.

For Laura the process was experienced as actual energy moving through body. For somebody else it may simply feel like relief, anger, clarity or finally making one decision without asking five people first.

Calling your power back, imo, isn't becoming powerful over other people.

It is stopping other people from being the authority over you.

Is this Kundalini awakening?

Hello everyone

For almost two years, I’ve been doing energy healing. For about the past six months, I’ve been experiencing this sensation. It feels like an energy that is moving upward into my head. At first, I only felt it at the base of my neck, but now I feel as though it wants to rise from inside my throat toward my brain.

Has anyone else experienced something like this?

I should mention that it feels like there are two strands of energy, which sometimes reach my temples and seem to want to connect.

Sometimes I can also feel it in my mouth. It feels like there are two strands or streams of energy, almost like two little vortices

Does being in love overactivate the heart chakra?

I started dating someone after a very long time, I realised all of my emotions have intensified, I feel a lot of love, like overwhelming levels of love for people and beings around me.

But with that I also feel other emotions very intensely too and I feel it all in my heart or the area around my chest.

Does being in love/dating after a while of being single for a while as a spiritual person intensify the experience or emotions?

Center Forehead Ache

Every time I do chakra meditations, the center of my forehead kind of between my eyebrows aches. I know it's not how I'm sitting because I sit the exact same way for all my meditations, and my forehead doesn't ache with other meditations. It happens with any chakra meditation, though. Am I doing something wrong?

How do you know which chakra needs your attention?

I’ve been thinking about how differently we experience our own energy.

Sometimes I feel drawn to work with a particular chakra without really knowing why at first. It might be through meditation, a certain crystal, a colour I keep gravitating towards, journaling, prayer or simply feeling like there’s an area of my energy that needs more attention.

It made me curious about how other people recognise this in themselves.

Do you notice certain emotions, physical sensations, recurring thoughts or patterns in your life? Or is it more intuitive, you simply feel drawn towards a particular chakra?

And once you notice it, what does your practice usually look like? Meditation, crystals, breathwork, sound/frequency, affirmations, visualisation, energy work?

I’d love to hear how people here actually experience and work with their chakras in everyday practice.

How do you find cohesion when different parts of your energy system seem to need completely different things?

I’m curious whether anyone who has experience with Reiki, chakra work, or energy healing has experienced something similar.
I’m having a very difficult time finding a sustainable rhythm because my energy, emotions, and needs seem to change and sometimes feel like they conflict with each other.
At certain times I feel a strong need for connection, meaningful work, purpose, stimulation, movement, and actually participating in life. At other times I feel incredibly depleted and need quiet, safety, rest, and an environment that feels nourishing and not overstimulating.
The problem is that neither side seems sustainable by itself. If I rest a lot, I can become emotionally depressed because my deeper needs for connection, purpose, progress, and feeling alive aren’t being met. But when I try to satisfy those needs and become more active, I can exhaust myself again.
It sometimes feels like different parts of my system are operating independently rather than working together. I can feel deeply exhausted and like I need an enormous amount of rest, while another part of me simultaneously feels like I desperately need to move forward with my life.
I’ve tried thinking about this through the lens of nervous-system regulation, but I’m also curious about the energetic perspective. When people talk about balancing chakras or integrating energy, is this kind of internal conflict something Reiki or energy work can potentially help with?
I’m not expecting Reiki to magically tell me what to do with my life. I’m mostly looking for greater internal cohesion and clarity — a way for rest, safety, connection, purpose, and forward movement to stop feeling like competing systems.
If anyone has experienced something similar or worked with a practitioner who helped them understand it, I’d really appreciate hearing about your experience!
