External Chakra Characteristics

This information is taken from the extensive information on the chakra in my cutting edge book, Guidebook for Evolving Chakra Care.

There are five out of body chakras including the Earth Star and the Soul Star. They connect to the physical but are not contained in it. They serve as intermediaries between the higher, invisible chakras and the in-body ones. They work primarily with celestial and elemental energies. The celestial are very high frequency, moving faster than the speed of light. These energies relate to concepts, values, principles, ideas, and spirituality. They are alchemical and contain a magic that transforms.

External Chakra: Eighth Chakra

Chakra Overview
In general, the eighth chakra is rich in information about our karma, the slate of issues we have come to work out and learnings we seek to acquire. Because we record information about others and their roles in our lives in this chakra, it is here that we can find many of the cords that currently affect us. We can also trace our patterns (the habitual processes in which we get stuck) through the eighth chakra, making it a valuable able access point for healing chronic physical or emotional problems, as well as difficult relationships. Because it relates to time, many of our time issues can be resolved through this chakra.

A feminine-based chakra with a male core, most often associated with visual images such as the moon, stars, universal night, planets, other dimensions, and time itself. Its yang elements relate to ways we are living out karma; its yin aspects are its ability to hold memory and serve as our personal scribe.

Source of-All past knowledge; karmic memory; access to other dimensions and times. Seat of-Time and timelessness; karma; soul relationships; portals in and through this time/space continuum.

External Chakra Nine: Soul Star

The Soul Star above the head about 18 inches is considered to be the seat of our soul, filtering the cosmic influx through our own defining frequencies to impact how we interact with the spiritual realms and one another. This center serves as a powerful template that sets into motion specific forms into the physical. Consciously regulating its capacity to filter and form impacts greatly the health, well-being, and experience of the physical being. Healing must start here first to insure that is is flooded and fed with the higher vibrational intentions to create the required changes and adjustments. This soul body carries the data from one incarnation to another, making deposit in the Crystal Cave just prior to incarnation. Here we can gain knowledge of life purpose and life tasks, significant relationships, and power symbols, as well as uncover soul damage for healing.
Overview
Contains soul genes, the programs underlying the choices we have made regarding our physical body, mental beliefs, and emotional states. All healing must be locked into the ninth chakra to be completely integrated. Only by healing the soul body, which carries all data from one incarnation to another, can we be assured that we are not just going to repeat lessons over and over.

I willingly open the conduit of Light information through the Soul Star into my being to allow the knowledge of the I Am That I Am to wash through me and raise the vibrational awareness of each chakra and all my cells. In this vibration I allow my fullness to return, my purpose to be understood, and my soul to be present on all levels. I willingly access all my tools to delight in each moment. And so it is.

External Chakra Ten: Earth Star

Overview
This newly rediscovered chakra is of profound importance as it establishes a flowing connection with the Earth grounding and sustaining power that both feeds and clears energy through a rotor rooter like circulation that rises up through the sphere into the left foot/leg and carries energetic residue out the right side back to the Earth for further circulation. Utilizing this chakra consciously will serve mightily to keep us in our physical body empowered by strongly grounded Earth energy. The Earth energy also cleanses and moves to align with your particular frequencies of health to dislodge and release that which is of lower frequency.
