from Susan J. Wright's The Chakra's in Shamanic Practice


Just after I began this blog, I decided I would begin exploring my Chakras. Our Chakras are such an important part of the composition of our Souls, I felt I needed to get in touch with the ones I 'neglected'. I held expectations when it came to writing about the Third Eye and Crown Chakras, I truly believed it would be the easiest for me to write, after all these were my two "favorite" Chakras...Today I sit here at my computer for the 10th or so time, attempting to write this post. I'm not suffering from any Writer's Block, I am only just now aware of the maturity and wisdom that comes with this Chakra, and really a bit blown away by it.


By nature I tend to 'live' in the Crown, I have labeled myself as "cerebral" or "verbally abstract", by which I mean I would rather write than speak publicly; I feel, much better than I speak, and find that my heart and head are one in the same. Allowing my feelings to just float around in the Ethers was much easier then to look at them and truly examine what they where, let a lone, why they were happening to begin with. In the last several weeks a few revelations have come to mind, I had to come to acknowledge just how foggy my thinking was and how that was coming across verbally, as well as what feelings were attached to them.

What does all of this have to do with the Crown Chakra you might ask? Everything and nothing depending on where you are on your Chakra Evolution.

The goal of the Crown Chakra can be described as recognizing your Universal Identity through Knowing Thy Self. The Crown Chakra is how we connect universally, and how we connect to Spirit. I wanted to be an active participant in my Evolution; to truly know myself I felt the need to examine each one of my chakras in a very honest way.  All of the Chakras below the Crown have an effect on how your Crown functions. Starting with the Root Chraka (our beliefs), the beliefs we have directly effect all other Chakras, beliefs are how we see and act in the physical world, and how we present our Universal-selves. When we can pause and recognize the many parts or identities of ourself we can truly begin to know and accept who we are, thus also accepting the truth of the Universe around us.

To me, the Crown Chakra is all about the your place in the Universe, you as the Universe; the Microcosm & Macrocosm, the As Above, So Below principle, the Crown is the ultimate Mirror.

To understand the Crown Chakra is to have true Universal Wisdom, and the goal is for clear and pure connection to Spirit, to the Universal Truth by way of Knowing Thy Self.

This completes my Chakra Focus! Hooray!!! I will continue to delve deeper into my Chakras, as a dynamic being my evolution is never complete, and only continues to grow. I hope that these Chakra Focuses have helped you in some way, and inspired you to explore yourself.
