Understand Root Chakra and Crown Chakra Pairing, and Heal Your Ancestral Lineage

Speaker: 00:00:00

Hello and welcome to another episode of the Art of Life podcast.

Speaker: 00:00:04

I am Kanika, I am your host and today we are talking about the connection between

Speaker: 00:00:10

the root chakra and the crown chakra.

Speaker: 00:00:13

So did you know your first chakra and seventh chakra, they are paired chakras?

Speaker: 00:00:18

What does that really mean though?

Speaker: 00:00:20

Now think about it and probably go back to the time before you were born.

Speaker: 00:00:26

So up above you're floating and you are wanting to come on earth.

Speaker: 00:00:32

As a soul or as a spirit, you don't have any boundaries.

Speaker: 00:00:37

There is no limit to what you can do.

Speaker: 00:00:41

And you decide to be born on earth.

Speaker: 00:00:44

You want to come here.

Speaker: 00:00:45

There's a purpose, an agenda that you have for the lifetime

Speaker: 00:00:49

and that's why you get born.

Speaker: 00:00:51

First chakra we know is really about just coming on earth, it is that difference

Speaker: 00:00:58

from being a soul or a spirit, being that free person, then coming into

Speaker: 00:01:03

earth, realizing that that was your purpose in life and rising up to that.

Speaker: 00:01:10

Root chakra is a lot around feeling safe.

Speaker: 00:01:13

It's a lot around survival.

Speaker: 00:01:15

It's about how you are as a person.

Speaker: 00:01:17

Your sense of identity would mean who you are, like within your family, what are

Speaker: 00:01:23

your skills, what's your body shape like, but just being okay with all of that.

Speaker: 00:01:28

But if you put the other layer on it and you started understanding it from the eyes

Speaker: 00:01:33

of the whole spiritual evolution, when you incarnate and then come into earth, the

Speaker: 00:01:41

idea of you being born on earth is really that you have an agenda, you have a life

Speaker: 00:01:48

purpose and you come here to fulfill that.

Speaker: 00:01:50

The first step in your root chakra activation is that you start

Speaker: 00:01:56

feeling okay with who you are, with whatever you perceive are

Speaker: 00:01:59

your weaknesses or your strengths.

Speaker: 00:02:02

You start getting okay with that and there's nothing as such which is a

Speaker: 00:02:05

weakness because you have particularly chosen skills that you will be great

Speaker: 00:02:12

at and you have chosen to have skills or lack of certain elements, That is

Speaker: 00:02:20

particularly chosen by you as a spirit.

Speaker: 00:02:24

because of the experience you wanted to have on life.

Speaker: 00:02:27

So yes, in a physical form as a body form of you, you might feel like,

Speaker: 00:02:33

hey, this thing is lacking a little bit here and so on, but from a spirit

Speaker: 00:02:38

perspective, it's whole, it's complete.

Speaker: 00:02:41

So the first step in the root chakra activation is really just being okay

Speaker: 00:02:47

with yourself and that's why the affirmation is I am safe as I am.

Speaker: 00:02:50

I'm safe.

Speaker: 00:02:52

But on your journey of root chakra activation, the next part is the

Speaker: 00:02:57

embodiment of your purpose, your desire.

Speaker: 00:03:02

Why did you come on earth?

Speaker: 00:03:05

It's very crucial here that the element for root chakra is earth.

Speaker: 00:03:12

Very correctly, very appropriately so, right?

Speaker: 00:03:17

Because Earth is the entity or the being that is giving you the space to live here.

Speaker: 00:03:25

She is the one who is very much involved when you are being born.

Speaker: 00:03:33

in the process of you coming to Earth.

Speaker: 00:03:37

She said yes, she would love to have you.

Speaker: 00:03:40

She holds unconditional love.

Speaker: 00:03:41

She understands your purpose and she understands why you are here on

Speaker: 00:03:46

Earth What is your role in terms of evolving the consciousness on Earth?

Speaker: 00:03:52

She understands that and she is there.

Speaker: 00:03:55

Now there's a difference, your mom and dad, they are also participants of

Speaker: 00:04:02

bringing you on earth, but there's a different agreement with them because

Speaker: 00:04:06

they are here already in the physical form and you're born after that.

Speaker: 00:04:11

So the agreements that you have with them could be slightly different.

Speaker: 00:04:14

They could be biased.

Speaker: 00:04:15

They could be colored by their own experiences and what they want.

Speaker: 00:04:21

Whereas from earth, she is pretty much on the same agenda as you, as a soul.

Speaker: 00:04:28

She wants you to come on earth because she's seeing the bigger picture on earth.

Speaker: 00:04:32

She understands that the stuff you will do, how it will shape,

Speaker: 00:04:36

how it evolve, grow the whole consciousness on earth as a whole.

Speaker: 00:04:42

So she is pretty much non biased when you are evolving on Earth.

Speaker: 00:04:50

she doesn't have another agenda.

Speaker: 00:04:52

She and you are pretty aligned on the agenda, on your agenda on Earth.

Speaker: 00:04:59

And hence, the root chakra has the element Earth.

Speaker: 00:05:02

It's pretty much connecting with Earth, with Gaia, in a physical form, like

Speaker: 00:05:08

going out on walks, supporting humankind, maybe taking care of animals, growing

Speaker: 00:05:13

vegetables, gardening, just general things that connect you with nature,

Speaker: 00:05:17

playing with water, going on mountain hikes and stuff like that, but it is

Speaker: 00:05:21

also connecting with earth as a being.

Speaker: 00:05:26

That's the number one way, or the quickest hack to start activating your root chakra.

Speaker: 00:05:33

Yeah.

Speaker: 00:05:35

really connecting with Gaia as a being, as an entity, as an entity

Speaker: 00:05:40

where you are exchanging lives together because she's being and you

Speaker: 00:05:43

are going to walk around, live on her the whole time of your incarnation.

Speaker: 00:05:48

So she's very special in that way, but really having that connection.

Speaker: 00:05:52

And in that sense, grounding comes in very handy.

Speaker: 00:05:56

The way I teach grounding is from your first chakra and from your second

Speaker: 00:06:00

chakra, you imagine a cord going all the way to the center of the earth

Speaker: 00:06:05

because that is that sacred womb space.

Speaker: 00:06:09

This is where she holds boundless love for you.

Speaker: 00:06:15

And hence, when you connect with that, This is that beautiful place

Speaker: 00:06:20

where you are connecting with that sacredness of love of Gaia.

Speaker: 00:06:28

And in that space there is nothing that you can't do.

Speaker: 00:06:32

Connecting with the Earth is also a lot around being able

Speaker: 00:06:36

to multiply what you have.

Speaker: 00:06:38

Your first chakra is a masculine chakra.

Speaker: 00:06:40

It is a place of planting the seed.

Speaker: 00:06:42

That's why as a person, your sense of identity, as in what

Speaker: 00:06:46

you want to do, is paramount.

Speaker: 00:06:50

What is your calling, wanting to do that, but think of that just as a seed.

Speaker: 00:06:55

And when you plant it in the earth for a long time, the seed

Speaker: 00:06:59

is in the ground and you don't see things happening around the seed.

Speaker: 00:07:03

It takes a little while for the seed to germinate, takes a little

Speaker: 00:07:07

while for the seeds to grow roots.

Speaker: 00:07:09

And if you've just got it in the soil, nothing's really coming up from the top.

Speaker: 00:07:13

You can't see anything.

Speaker: 00:07:15

So especially with the root chakra, you need that feminine space.

Speaker: 00:07:19

You need that connection with Gaia.

Speaker: 00:07:23

You need that divine feminine energy to be able to really nourish and

Speaker: 00:07:28

blossom that connecting with Gaia or with other feminine planets.

Speaker: 00:07:32

If you really want more, I run a sacred healing circle.

Speaker: 00:07:36

It's called the Moon Meditation Circle.

Speaker: 00:07:38

And every time we use the moon's energy and the celestial forces around

Speaker: 00:07:43

us to amp up our internal cleanse and manifest whatever we want to do.

Speaker: 00:07:52

So you're really welcome to try that out.

Speaker: 00:07:54

I am offering a free trial at the moment.

Speaker: 00:07:57

You can get to it at artoflifecenter.

Speaker: 00:08:00

com slash moon.

Speaker: 00:08:02

I'll repeat artoflifecenter.

Speaker: 00:08:04

com slash moon.

Speaker: 00:08:07

So that's one way of just incorporating the feminine energy there.

Speaker: 00:08:11

Now the masculine energy is very directional.

Speaker: 00:08:14

It's very much hey, this is what I need to do.

Speaker: 00:08:17

But to amplify that and to provide that nourishing space, that's why you

Speaker: 00:08:21

have the element as earth, because that's the feminine space, and

Speaker: 00:08:25

that gives it the feminine energy.

Speaker: 00:08:26

space to really grow and blossom and bloom.

Speaker: 00:08:30

So those are your tips for really activating your root chakra.

Speaker: 00:08:34

Root chakra is also really connected with your ancestral lineage.

Speaker: 00:08:39

And again, think about it in terms of one and seven.

Speaker: 00:08:43

So seven as your crown chakra or your connection with the consciousness

Speaker: 00:08:48

with the wider consciousness.

Speaker: 00:08:49

This is your spirit level chakra, right?

Speaker: 00:08:52

That is pretty much in the outer levels of your body or your aura layers.

Speaker: 00:08:58

Whereas your root chakra and the first aura layer, that is

Speaker: 00:09:03

very much inside you, correct?

Speaker: 00:09:06

Because this is very much a body level chakra.

Speaker: 00:09:09

But if the seventh chakra is around consciousness and around feeling really

Speaker: 00:09:13

connected and supported, that okay, you are supported with the universal wisdom

Speaker: 00:09:20

around you, with the consciousness around you and really being able to tap into

Speaker: 00:09:24

that, then the first chakra or root chakra is very much around being okay

Speaker: 00:09:30

in your body space and understanding that you have come here with a purpose.

Speaker: 00:09:37

And this is what you are set to do.

Speaker: 00:09:39

But because the first chakra is also a foundation chakra, so this

Speaker: 00:09:44

is where it connects with all the ancestral patterns, it has to, right,

Speaker: 00:09:47

because this is your family lineage.

Speaker: 00:09:49

This is how things were shaped, not just in your family, but also

Speaker: 00:09:53

in the society, that conditioning, everything that sits here.

Speaker: 00:09:56

So the fear around here is very much around survival.

Speaker: 00:09:59

There's the resistance to change.

Speaker: 00:10:03

But owning your purpose in your body in the first chakra that really helps

Speaker: 00:10:09

activate your root chakra, but it's also very paramount because if you have

Speaker: 00:10:15

been born, then your ancestors, your whole ancestry line, your family lines,

Speaker: 00:10:21

like all the entities, they actually understand and they participate in

Speaker: 00:10:26

the fact that you will be born and you will be bringing forth those changes.

Speaker: 00:10:29

And the reason why they are invested in you coming down and

Speaker: 00:10:34

being incarnated on earth is that they want to see that change.

Speaker: 00:10:40

So at a surface level on earth, it might feel that if you

Speaker: 00:10:44

are making a radical shift.

Speaker: 00:10:47

Your family might resist it.

Speaker: 00:10:49

For example, if your family is really, really used to working

Speaker: 00:10:52

very hard for money, then that might be the way they are thinking.

Speaker: 00:10:57

But then your ancestors, the ancients who have been involved with your family,

Speaker: 00:11:02

they might think, well, this is not really serving our family line as such.

Speaker: 00:11:07

And hence they pick you as a soul.

Speaker: 00:11:09

And they go okay, you need to come and incarnate on this earth.

Speaker: 00:11:12

And together you work out that one of your agendas on earth is going to be that you

Speaker: 00:11:17

will shift that ideology for them, that you will show them that there is a way

Speaker: 00:11:22

to do things differently, that there is a way to earn money a little bit easily.

Speaker: 00:11:26

So when you are born with that agenda, you might still feel the resistance

Speaker: 00:11:36

at an earth level within your family, within your extended family, within

Speaker: 00:11:41

people who know how things are and uncles and aunts who love you, etc.

Speaker: 00:11:46

But there is a guidance from your higher ancestors who are really

Speaker: 00:11:50

wanting you to shift that paradigm, who are really wanting that evolution.

Speaker: 00:11:55

So boiling it all down, the root chakra is really about connecting, tapping into your

Speaker: 00:12:02

purpose, bringing that alignment forward and living that purpose in this lifetime.

Speaker: 00:12:10

Your sources of help there is Earth because she is the non

Speaker: 00:12:16

biased party in your evolution.

Speaker: 00:12:18

She understands and she is totally involved, invested in

Speaker: 00:12:25

the same agenda that you have.

Speaker: 00:12:28

You will feel some resistance with people around you because

Speaker: 00:12:33

they are resistant to change.

Speaker: 00:12:35

But you wouldn't have been born, you wouldn't have incarnated if the

Speaker: 00:12:40

wider energy within your families wasn't ready for that change.

Speaker: 00:12:46

So you are on your path to change it, bring the evolution in whatever way you

Speaker: 00:12:53

are thinking . So if you feel the fears.

Speaker: 00:12:57

especially survival fears or oh my god, I'm changing this, how will I

Speaker: 00:13:01

progress from this and so on, they really stem from the root chakra.

Speaker: 00:13:05

But the more and more you deal with them, the more and more those fears

Speaker: 00:13:09

will start going away as well.

Speaker: 00:13:11

Your tapping sources for all of this is connecting with the earth.

Speaker: 00:13:15

Your tapping sources is also connecting with your higher consciousness, like

Speaker: 00:13:18

reaching out meditating, if that's your game, or using especially

Speaker: 00:13:23

the earth as an element as well.

Speaker: 00:13:25

Finding those moments in nature, calming yourself.

Speaker: 00:13:29

to get that guidance is a super great way of being able

Speaker: 00:13:33

to activate your root chakra.

Speaker: 00:13:35

Now root chakra is very much connected with, let's say, all the

Speaker: 00:13:40

stuff that is around movement, like in the physical parts your kidneys

Speaker: 00:13:46

but a lot of that's connected with earth, especially like where you

Speaker: 00:13:50

are sitting exactly just that area.

Speaker: 00:13:53

That's very much connected with root chakra.

Speaker: 00:13:56

And if you're feeling that bit is heavy, then I would strongly encourage you to

Speaker: 00:14:01

start grounding or check out my free trial of the moon meditation circle.

Speaker: 00:14:06

The link would be in the show notes as well.

Speaker: 00:14:09

And that just starts giving you some release, some space to let go of stuff

Speaker: 00:14:14

that you are carrying and holding.

Speaker: 00:14:17

It is very much about planting a seed and then complementing that with

Speaker: 00:14:22

feminine energy of growth, of nurturing that idea to be able to move forward.

Speaker: 00:14:30

So that's, like we've talked about, connecting with the earth, but it's

Speaker: 00:14:33

also having that nurturing side of it.

Speaker: 00:14:36

So especially if you feel that you are very afraid, you feel cornered in

Speaker: 00:14:41

terms of the steps that you want to take, but you feel like nobody's got

Speaker: 00:14:44

your support, then this is your place to go and ask Mother Earth to help you.

Speaker: 00:14:50

This is your space to ask the universe for guidance and definitely your own

Speaker: 00:14:54

space yourself as well, every time you hear those voices in your head or you

Speaker: 00:15:01

hear the fears in your head, tell them what you've done right, tell them what

Speaker: 00:15:05

you can do, tell them why it should succeed instead, because that is what

Speaker: 00:15:10

your root chakra is trying to tell you.

Speaker: 00:15:13

So I wish you the very best.

Speaker: 00:15:15
