We have to imagine the chakras as energy centers , vortexes, energy discs that function and spin at a certain speed.

It can happen that the energy becomes blocked at a certain level and there is stagnation : let’s see how it happens and what test helps us to understand the state of the chakras

When the chakras become blocked

What we think, what we eat, the way we breathe, the relationships we weave, the type of training we undergo the body, the way we make love, all affect our state of health; It is also true that many of these factors are vice versa influenced by the condition of the energy centers.

Taking a concrete example, if the root chakra is blocked for some reason, our way of making love can be a little altered, spoiled, excessive or lacking desire, obsessions or in any case unproductive ways of wanting can develop. another person. 

In many cases it is necessary to protect oneself from improvised gurus who “read” us the blocks and the like; being energy centers, they are intangible and, although it is true that many masters with subtle sensitivity can read their students and guide them , on the other hand many improvise and perhaps alarm the person of a block that does not exist only to be able to secure a certain number of paid treatments.

Be wary of those who point their fingers and say: ” You have a block to this or that chakra! “. A real teacher would never tell you that way and would not confine the only solution to proselytism, on the contrary, he would push you to work for yourselves and with yourselves, without creating any dependence.

Tests to find out the state of the chakras 

Energy reading of the hand

Among the tests to discover the state of the chakras there is the energy reading of the hand . In summary, it is based on the sensation that “surrounds” this or that finger: if it is a small push of air, a fresh breath and a general feeling of lightness we are not in front of a block, which instead happens when around the finger there is excessive heat, tingling, heaviness .

In principle:

• the little finger responds to the heart chakra ( Anahata chakra),
• the ring finger in Ajna (hypothalamus and thalamus, controls sight, intellect, the faculty of thinking);
• the medium is associated with the liver and stomach and governs one’s well-being and the ability to distribute it and offer it to others;
• the index connects to Vishudda , the sense organs and the ability to say things as they are;
• thumb connects to Svadhistana and reproductive organs,
• the center of the hand to the limbic area of ​​the brain;
• the root, Muladhara , is on the wrist.

Kinesiological muscle test

Another test that is often done is in association with kinesiological muscle testing . In some schools of kinesiology this association would be abstruse, but in other schools of thought the chakras are taken into account, in the moment of the muscle test and the accompanying verbal affirmation related to the chakra, once the first unequivocally true affirmation is said “I am “associated with the name of the recipient.

In practice, the individual chakras are evaluated simply with affirmations such as: ” My first chakra is in balance”.

According to the reaction to the test (to the change in strength in the ring formed with the thumb / index finger of the left hand) it is possible or not to move on to the next chakra.  

The pendulum

Another way to test the state of the chakras is usually the pendulum. You test at a distance of about 5/10 cm with respect to the point of the chakra taken into consideration and you first of all see if it moves or if it remains stationary: if it moves, it is necessary to consider what type of oscillation it performs:

• if it is circular, the wider it is, the more it is crossed by energy flows; the natural rotation of the pendulum is clockwise; if it rotates counterclockwise it indicates energy that comes out of the chakra.
• if it has a vertical trend it can mean a deviation from the more practical plane of the sense of the chakra, an excessive idealization;
• on the contrary, if horizontal, the spiritual sense that the chakra carries is lost;
• when it is stopped there may be defenses or blocks, protections.

Recall that these are techniques. The best way to read the condition of your chakras is to listen to yourself and move your breath and body regularly, just to see evolutions, progress, transformations.
