How You’re Secretly a Spiritual Snake Charmer

According to yogis, kundalini is the greatest force of creativity in the cosmos and comes from Shakti, the Indian mother goddess. Myths say that while in the form of a snake, Shakti created the whole world. After all that work she lay curled up and rested for a while. Once she had recovered, she climbed the mountain where her wise husband Shiva was meditating and told him all about her creation. For many yogis, this story symbolizes the connection between power and insight or between doing and thinking. According to them, Shakti gives the energy to cheerfully and consciously achieve your goals. You just need to learn how to be a spiritual snake charmer!

Kundalini Meditation with Chakras

People who try to awaken kundalini usually work with Chakras.  According to yoga philosophy, these are seven energetic points that are spread over your spine. Kundalini, for example, can be found coiled like a snake at the bottom of the spine, at the red Root Chakra. On top of your head would then be the Crown Chakra where Shakti would prefer to crawl towards. According to experts, there can be all kinds of obstacles along the way that prevent the power from moving upwards. That is why yogis and healers spend time clearing their entire energy system, for example by using Chakra Stones during a meditation. Visualizing Chakra Colors can also help clear the way for the nourishing power of Shakti!

Kundalini Yoga

Kundalini yoga consists of a series of exercises or kriyas that are intended to master life force. The best known practitioner of this method is Yogi Bhajan. During kundalini classes, special mantras are chanted and meditations are done, as well as breathing exercises and postures similar to hatha yoga. The most important session of the day is the sadhana that takes place two hours before sunrise. Also characteristic of this form of yoga are teachers and participants who dress in white and wear a turban. White would help to stay aware of your own energy. Yogis believe that the turban keeps kundalini in the body and prevent headaches after class.

Mantras to Make Kundalini Energy Flow

The mantras below are usually heard during a kundalini class, but they are also nice to practice on your own. These texts evoke creativity and awareness! Chant them, for example, when you have lost contact with Mother Earth, are in a slump or need some inspiration. Tip: Use a Mala for extra effect!

Ong Namo Guru Dev Namo

I salute all that is and salute the wisdom within me

Sat Nam

Truth is my being

Ra, Ma, Da, Sa, Sa, Say, So Hung

Sun, moon, earth, eternity, everything, we are each other

Wahe Guru

O the wondrous divinity! What a life! Hurray for this existence!

Reiki Kundalini Massage

Kundalini Reiki is a variant of the traditional Usui Reiki Healing and focuses on strengthening personal life force. Someone who works with this form of Reiki has received initiations to guide the ascent of kundalini. He could also pass on universal energy to you, treating the blockages in your chakras. For many people, such a session is a kind of kundalini massage, it releases waste energy and replaces it with fresh life force!

Other Ways to Wake Up Your Shakti

Other spiritual traditions also have ways of stimulating creative energy. Think, for example, of Tantra Yoga where you generate female energy through meditation or Yoni Massage. Taoists also knew where to look, that’s why they came up with all kinds of Yoni Egg Exercises with which women could train their pelvic area. So what are you waiting for? Awake your snake.
