Chakra Mastery: Tuning in to the Power of Your Chakras

I've always felt like I came a little late to the party, out of synch with those around me.
It felt like everyone had it all figured out, living the happily ever after. There I was trying
different things, taking all sorts of classes, exploring new avenues yet not really clear about
where I was going with all this seemingly unrelated interests and experiences pulling me along.
There was a part of me that knew to just keep following my heart.

I studied nursing and learned about the human body and healing with traditional medicine. I
studied environmental engineering and learned about nature, natural forces, human impact on
them, and healing the earth. I studied alternative health and learned to work with the mindbody-spirit flow for holistic healing. I studied energy medicine and learned the human energy
system and healing with energy. The common thread was healing and the integration of all
systems in order to uniquely empower each individual.

The interconnectedness of what I have learned allows me to fully step into my soul purpose
passionately. I know that as we move forward in this time of great change we must look at the
whole picture and what that means for us individually and collectively. We must learn to
master tour own Human Energy System in order to navigate quickly, efficiently, and
successfully through these changes. It is the key to unlocking our greatest potential.

At the core of the Human Energy System is the chakra


system.
They are a series of energy vortexes that process energy and are connected to the
meridians or energetic pathways that move through the body, the energy points where the
meridians cross commonly known as acupuncture points.

The chakras connect with the subtle energy bodies that make up your aura, and the web
of energy often referred to as the matrix of collective consciousness. This is the very basic
synopsis of the Human Energy System.

This report will give you a basic knowledge of the 8th chakra, what it is, how it functions,
and how it affects your life.
There are hundreds of minor chakras throughout your body, much like in your circulatory
system the major components are your heart, veins, arteries, and blood; within that system
are more intricate subsystems. The same is true of your energy system.

Each of the 7 major in body chakras are tuned in to a particular physical and emotional
aspect. The out of body chakras are more focused on the movement and processing of the
different types of energy.

Just like we have preferred dominant hand We all have a preferred dominant chakra this
provides an energetic profile that forms our perceptions . There are many factors that play
into your energy profile and though it's foundational it is not a static thing it can change and
evolve with you.
This is the beginning of a journey in self discovery, self healing, and self realization so
sit, back relax, (you can't get it wrong!) and enjoy. Apply what you learn fine tuning it to suit
your unique situation and needs. I'm happy to be sharing the journey with you.

Namaste',
Cathy

Chakra Mastery: Tuning in to the Power of Your Chakras


The chakras are the Human Energy Systems primary operating system. They take energy in,
move energy out, and convert energy to a useable frequency for the current situation. The
chakras connect with other parts of the Human Energy System to distribute the energy.
They have tremendous impact on our day-to-day life, yet because they are largely invisible,
functioning in the subtle energy fields, not much attention is paid to them.
They do have a visible effect in our lives. Over the last 20-years I've discovered patterns and
characteristics within the chakra system. Each of us has a preferred or primary chakra that we
filter energy through first; this shapes our perception and experience of reality.
All of the chakras process energy and each of us utilize this process in ways that are unique to
us. This assessment identifies your unique Chakra Energy Profile or Archetype. It highlights
which are your primary and secondary chakras and gives you an idea of how that is impacting
you and your life.
There are seven in-body and four out-of-body chakras that are referenced in the assessment.
There are hundreds of chakras in our Human Energy System but these 11 are the major ones.
Each chakra processes energy of a certain quality or vibrational frequency. This is why certain
characteristics are associated with different chakras. Similar to different musical notes each one
has a unique sound and vibration and when joined together they make beautiful music.
All of us utilize all of the chakras but for each of us, particular chakras are utilized more; they
are louder if you will, than the other chakras. This informs how we express ourselves in the
world and how we perceive the world around us. Just like a dog can hear high frequency sounds
that humans cannot, we tune in more to the frequency of our primary chakra.
When we utilize the energy from the chakras consciously, we facilitate a smoother flow of
energy which fosters ease in our lives. It also helps us to reframe what we are experiencing in
ways that are meaningful and inherently work for us. We are all familiar with the phenomenon
of witnesses to an event having very different versions of the same event. This is because each
person interprets the experience of the event through their own unique filter, their primary and
supporting chakras.
For example: several people witness an altercation between an older gentleman and a young
woman.

The Hero see's the young person as disrespectful and disrupting the traditional
foundation of the relationship.
The Warrior see's the young woman exerting her freedom of choice and taking a stand
for her beliefs.

Cathy Brennan

www.InspiredSoulAlliance.com

Page 5

Chakra Mastery: Tuning in to the Power of Your Chakras

The Oracle see's a communication effort that's not being very effective.

Each person see's the situation in a different light depending on how they filter the experience.
The chakra energy profile is that filter. Can you see how you filter your experiences?
Each one of the chakras is associated, tuned in if you will, to certain areas of the body, feelings,
and bodily functions, with the exception of the out-of-body chakras which function slightly
differently. They are not directly associated with an area of the body and they utilize the energy
of the supporting chakras in a more direct way especially when it relates to more tangible
results.
With all of the Chakra Energy Profiles take the information and use your discernment to see
what fits and what does not, making note of where there is resistance or if it simply is not
applicable to you at this time. There will be situations/circumstances where certain aspects of
the profiles will be more or less active and times where the supporting chakras will play a more
active role.
The key is to be aware of how this works for you. This awareness will help you consciously
process energy more efficiently and direct it positively towards what you want to create in your
life.
The first section covers the 7 in body chakras. The front vortex of a chakra relates to the
conscious self and our immediate reality while the back vortex relates to our unconscious self
and our ancestral , past life energy.
When working with the chakras, the front side is where we access the energy from this current
life experience. The back side is where we access the energy to connect with our past life
experiences, higher dimensions, as well as hidden knowledge, feelings, and secrets. Take a
look at each chakra answering the questions and seeing where you could benefit from some
balancing and aligning.
Remember that this is a fluid process, just like every minute of every day your heart beats and
moves blood through the body, moving energy is a continual process. How you care for your
energy has a direct result on your life. There is a quick reference chart below to help keep you
on track.

Off Body Chakras


Cathy Brennan

Chakra Mastery: Tuning in to the Power of Your Chakras

The inclusion of the off body chakras always stirs up some questions. What are these extra
chakras, what do they do, and why haven't I heard of them before. Most traditional chakra
systems speak of the 7 on body chakras because they have been the core of our energy system
for the majority of people up until now.

Say some your favorite foods are strawberries, yogurt, and rye bread. Sometimes your in
the mood for something sweet and the strawberries hit the spot, later on your looking for
lunch and a turkey sandwich on rye is just what you crave, for an afternoon 'pick me up' you
want something creamy to hold you over until dinner so a cup of yogurt is what you grab. Each
of the foods serve a purpose for you and they are each interpreted differently by the taste buds
in your mouth, no one is better than the other....they all taste good to you. Each one simply
activates different taste buds and your perception of that taste.

The chakras are similar, in that, depending on the situation and your unique energetic
makeup any one chakra may be more less active at any given time. The energy processed by
each chakra increases in frequency and you move up the chakras. Just like different tastes it
doesn't mean any one chakra better than another, they are simply at different frequencies and
are used for different purpose.

If you were to decide to study wine and become a wine connoisseur . You would learn the
techniques for assessing the bouquet, the different flavors in a wine, and the best food
pairings for each wine. Your taste buds would be finely tuned to the very subtle taste
variations that go unnoticed to the average person, like me :)

Cathy Brennan

Page 7

Chakra Mastery: Tuning in to the Power of Your Chakras

The off body chakras are tuned in to subtler, higher frequency


energy
This energy is associated with non physical experiences like soul patterns, connecting with
ancestry, alchemy of energy, spiritual truths, and karma. You tune in to them a little differently
than the on body chakras, much like a wine connoisseur....only with energy. The rapid evolution
in consciousness we're currently experiencing is awakening these off body chakras in more
people.

Unlike the on body chakras the off body chakras do not relate directly to the physical body
rather they influence the physical body by sending energy through the other chakras as well as
through the endocrine and nervous systems. Learning to tune in to them will benefit you on
many levels .

If your primary archetype is one of the off body chakras you will want to work closely with
your secondary chakra as well creating a strong flow of energy between them to create
effectively in the physical. Potentially your impact will have a deeper meaning as you move the
higher frequency energy into the on body chakras you increase the frequency of your entire
energy system.

Everyone has the ability to do this regardless of their archetype, the way they go about it
will be different . When a wine is paired with the right food there is a synergy for both wine
and food that enhances both. The same occurs with chakra energy. Consciously moving energy
through specific chakras enhances energy flow and physical results, and after all isn't that what
were seeking?

The first chakra is the root chakra or Mudlahara. It's located at the base of the spine,
specifically the area between the genitals and the anus. The number 4 is associated with the
root chakra because it has to do with manifestation, and the energy of the material world.

reality; it's the foundation upon which you build. It is all about your survival and tribal needs.
This is the energy for your emotional and mental well being and formation of your identity. The
essence of this chakra is the ability to provide for lifes necessities and a sense of belonging.

Feelings and Emotions


The root chakra is focused on your survival needs. The basics like food, shelter, and clothing
as well as your need for community, relationships, and legacy. This is where group
consciousness resides, and the ability to be part of the group yet maintain your individual
perspective.

It is with this energy that you balance your service to others both giving and receiving in a
healthy appropriate way. This chakra is where abundance mentality is anchored, allowing you
to have a sense of prosperity in all areas of life.

It is here we work the fine line of accepting old family and community beliefs and adopting
new ones that better suit our current situations. Your journey to self awareness begins here
starting by looking outward and ending with seeking internally.
With a well balanced root chakra there is a grounded, stable feeling, and a solid sense of
security. There is a sense of abundance, of being and having enough.

Blocks in the Root Chakra can result in,

collective hatred, greedy, and controlling (in an attempt to feel secure).

Realigning and Cleansing


If you are experiencing difficulty in any of these areas focusing on the root chakra with your
breath and some extra cleansing may be of value(in conjunction with your current plan) in
getting the energy moving and flowing in the optimal way.
When you breathe into the root chakra visualize red light infusing the chakra and gently move
it, either with your hand or by visualizing it, counter clockwise then clockwise. Adding the
following affirmation:

My worries, fears, and anxiety regarding security, safety, and financial freedom are
dissolving, I am releasing them now.
My needs are met continually and abundantly, I am free, I am safe, I am secure.
There is an abundance of time, money, and energy for everyone.

Here are some questions to ask yourself:

o Do I feel tense, moody, or ungrounded? Is there a specific area in my life that
triggers it or is it general?
o Am I able to meet personal goals and stay focused? What areas are most
difficult?

If you answered yes to any of the questions you may have a block in the root chakra. You can

have a great deal of ingenuity and flexibility. There is a sense of playfulness and fun in the way
you live and relate. You thrive on fostering creative flow and well-being not only for yourself

as evil will show up as a restriction in your flow of abundance.

Money: You will notice a rise in finances when you are happy. Money is seen as a flow in the
positive or as a restriction in the negative. You need to be creative in how you earn and save
money; the traditional path will not be very appealing to you. Money in and of itself has no real
appeal to you; the freedom it ultimately provides is your pay off.

Career: Tuning in to our natural talents to use them in creative ventures will be a strong desire.
Careers in art, counselling, and healing arts would be a good match for you.

gracefully express your needs and have the empathy to listen to others express theirs. You have
a strong sense of integrity and focus on aligning yourself with your truth.

Weaknesses: You can struggle with dishonesty and gossip if you are not full aligned with your
own truth. Because you listen so well you can fall prey to conforming to the ideas and
expectations of others, leading you away from your own path. On the other hand, in an effort
to protect your truth you can become stubborn and inflexible.

Money: Read, ask questions, and tune into your Inner Guidance when it comes to finance. The
Oracle tends to see money as a means to acquire tools and time for communication. Look to
the truth of what money symbolizes for you and use that in creating money.

Career: You will feel most at home with a career that utilizes your skills with communication.

with their stated values.

Mystic Energy Profile

Angelic: Shekhinah
Animal: Hawk
Energy Profile: Mystic (visionary, seer, strategist)
Astrological: Pisces, Sagittarius, Moon
Body: Eyes, sinus, brain
Chakra: 6th, third eye
Color: Indigo
Core Words: Vision, psychic, intuition, big picture, wisdom
Location: Between the eyebrows
Sanskrit: Anja

big as you allow. You are skilled at attuning to universal consciousness and applying it to the
physical world. There is a strong connection to worthiness for you, allowing only as much as
you feel worthy of. Feelings of unworthiness will result in the weakness of your Energy Profile
to emerge.

Strengths: You tend to have strong intuition and with it the ability to see the big picture not
only for yourself but for others as well. This is often so natural that you will discount it; make no
mistake it is a gift. You have the ability to bridge the left logical brain and the right creative side.
This enables you to strategize well.

Cathy Brennan

www.InspiredSoulAlliance.com

Page 50

Chakra Mastery: Tuning in to the Power of Your Chakras


Operating from the 6th chakra allows you clarity and flexibility as you see the outcome and the
different ways to get there. An effective technique for you would be to envision your future
self, tune in to your intuition, and take inspired action to make it your reality. In general
visualization is very effective for you.

Weaknesses: You can get stuck in an either/or situation where you look only at the logical or
only at the creative and don't use your natural talent for bridging the two. This can cause you to
experience tunnel vision and to set your sights too low. You may blame yourself for any
problems you encounter. Because your natural tendency is for the big picture, you can miss the
smaller details. It may be easier for you to partner with someone who prefers the details rather
than getting stuck in trying to manage them.

Money: Long range planning suits you well, seeing the big picture allows you to look long term.
Money itself isn't the goal for you rather the success that it stands for. You generally do well
with strategic long-range financial goals.

Career: In general, anything that allows you to use your strategic planning skills. Look to your
supporting chakras to narrow the field down. You can also use your wisdom and ability to
bridge the logical and creative to teach or mentor. If you choose to develop you innate psychic
ability, the esoteric world would be a good choice as well.

your strong connection with the divine, you have the ability to see if people/things/situations
are in alignment with spirit or not.

Cathy Brennan

www.InspiredSoulAlliance.com

Page 52

Chakra Mastery: Tuning in to the Power of Your Chakras

Weaknesses: You can get stuck in an egotistical or 'holier than thou' mentality. There is also the
risk of seeing the everyday world as mundane and not worth your time; if left unchecked this
can become self-centeredness. There is often an association here with money being evil, bad,
or a base need. There have been many Spiritualists that have moved past this to spread their
gifts while being well compensated.

Money: In order to make money you must be aligned with your divine plan. You must truly
believe in the value of what you are doing in order to make money. Your challenge will be in
releasing the belief that money has a negative energy.

Career: A career for you must be aligned with your values and spiritual grace. Look to your
supporting chakras for a focus and find an area that allows you to follow your divine purpose.

good for all. You have the ability to hold the space for outcomes that others simply cannot see,
but in holding that space you allow it to come into being.

as possible outcomes; this is a powerful combination. There is the ability to see the duality in
each situation/person and use that to foster outcomes for the highest good. Your focus is on
the outcome not the method of getting there. There is a strong sense of personal responsibility
and a desire to foster that in others, empowering them on their own path. You have an innate
ability to see right to the heart of the matter and the true value in what is happening.

Weaknesses: You can struggle with time, wanting to have right timing and having to live in this
time-space reality. There is also a tendency to change soul decisions made prior to incarnation;
this can cause some struggle and strife. You must learn the fine distinction of being aware of

and tuned-in to others energy and taking on or absorbing others energy. The later will leave
you feeling quite depleted (especially true if you have a strong 2nd chakra). Because you are
powerful, learning to balance your power and the use of it is important; too much and you can
become infatuated with power itself and too little could have you blocking success for fear of
abusing power. Creating harmony here will be critical to success.

Money: Money is truly an energy exchange for you and when you are able to view it as such
money will flow nicely. This is an area where the harmony of your power will show up; if you
are not in balance money will be difficult.

Career: You have an impact on those you come in contact with by staying true to yourself and
using the strengths of your lower chakras. You can find a career that empowers you and those
you work with giving you a sense of meaning and fulfillment; this will likely change as you do.

in saving or equalizing people/places/animals, etc. There is a strong need to make a difference.
The Unifier will champion those they see as less fortunate or disadvantaged. There is a sense of
fairness and equality that pervades everything they do. The patterns of humanity emerge for
them and they can see ways to improve the pattern.

Strengths: You have the ability to be a catalyst for social change. Because you see the ideal and
hold that as a standard you can work tirelessly toward that end. For you the pattern reveals
itself and you take action to make it fair, equitable, and right for all. You tend to be very
passionate about your focus for change.

Weaknesses: You can struggle with over giving to the point of exhausting yourself. The desire
to right social injustices can tip you into the realm of a zealot, unable to see the big picture.
Because you want to effect social change you can become cynical, especially when results are
slow or not visible.

money for what you believe in but you can struggle with generating cash flow for yourself.
Remember that you cannot effect social change if you do not have your basic needs met first.

Career: You are uniquely suited to fundraising for a cause you believe in. Another area you tend
to do well in is ethics management; you're not easily swayed from your ideals. Look to your
supporting chakras for support in creating social change and making a difference can offer a
wide range of possibilities. Whatever you choose, be sure it is in full alignment with your ideals.

the cycles of others.

nature to a fanatical degree. This leads to rigidity and rather than being grounded with strong
roots and a flexible trunk like the tree, you can become unyielding.

Cathy Brennan

Page 58

Chakra Mastery: Tuning in to the Power of Your Chakras

Money: Because you are so tactile it's easier to understand money if you can touch it. You see
money as a way to provide for your basic needs, it pales in comparison to the bounty of nature.

Career: Environment and science are good fits for your love of nature. Other areas of interest
would include Feng Shui, anthropology, archaeology, farming, or natural medicine as all of
these areas utilize your understanding of nature and the natural cycles.

waste. Change is a positive thing for you and the ability to create a clean clear channel for that
change is very important to you. You see the world as evolving and awakening and want to
assist in the evolution.

Weaknesses: You can struggle with turning inward and becoming introverted, not using your
gifts. The opposite is also true; you can become forceful or domineering in effecting the change
you want to see. Often there is an internal struggle with equating power and/or money with
evil.

Cathy Brennan

Chakra Mastery: Tuning in to the Power of Your Chakras

Money: Money is valuable to you for the power it affords you to create change in the world. It's
important that you keep your money separate from others money to give you the freedom to

areas, look to your supporting chakras to help narrow the field.

Now that you have the basics down, what do you do with it? There are numerous ways to
apply this information in your life with real tangible results (talk about making the invisible
visible!). I'll cover the top five ways to apply this to your life.
1. Take a look at your primary Chakra Energy Profile. How do these qualities support or
hinder you? Is it situational; more evident in certain relationships, at work, or at home?
Make note of where your attention is drawn. What feels true for you, what does not, and
what are you resisting?

Now take a look at your supporting Chakra Energy Profiles; go through the same process.
Are there areas you want to enhance or reduce the energy? Focus on these areas when
doing your chakra cleansing either drawing more energy in or slowing down the flow.

2. Look at an area you have a recurring problem or struggle in. Now take your lowest scoring
Chakra Energy Profile and see what qualities you could enhance to help you come to a
solution. For example, if the 5th chakra was your lowest, how is communication showing
up? Is there a way to bring greater clarity to your communication both speaking and
listening?

3. Think of a goal that you want to achieve. What qualities will you need to help you achieve
that goal? Draw on the energy of those chakras to infuse your goal with the energy of those
specific qualities. For example, if you want to attract a relationship you may want to draw
on the energy of the solar plexus chakra so you stay confident in who you are.

4. Look at your work life; are your values being expressed? Are your strengths being utilized?
Look at how you can shift your perception to expand how you see your work. What are your

intentions behind your work? Consciously draw energy into the chakras that will support
you.

5. Cleanse your chakras daily. Just like you shower, brush your teeth, and comb your hair your
chakras need regular cleansing. It doesn't take long a couple of minutes of consciously
moving the energy through your chakras will do wonders. Not only will it keep the energy
moving, it will also connect you with your energy field making it easier to tell when there is
a disruption.

Tuning in to your Human Energy System is a vital of part of a successful well balanced life. It
has far reaching effects and does not take a lot of time. As you explore, you maybe be surprised
at what you discover and how easily it's incorporated into everyday life. As you adapt and
expand on your practice I would love to have you share any new ways or adaptation that you
discover. You can share on the blog at www.inspiredsoulalliance.com or email me, Cathy at
