Wait, this is not that type of post but the title was catchy and dope, right?
This is about your throat though, and yes what does it do? Are you able to be expressive in your abilities, do you utilize your words to speak life over yourself and others? Do you speak with authority knowing that your words have power and they shape and create your reality? Are you honest with yourself and also with others? Or are you still afraid to speak up and out for what is best for your highest good? Are you still allowing the words you speak to be full of malice, deceit and lies?
If any of the above applies on any end of the spectrum, I pose the question again, "What does that Throat do? and if it is doing the latter in the previous paragraph you more than likely have a throat chakra blockage.
If you read my previous post I dig a little into how I was able to get to the root of a problem I had recently and pinpoint why I had a throat chakra blockage. Before I proceed, unblocking any chakra is not an overnight fix, well maybe for some but for me it has not been. I am still working through my blockages, hence why I have not come out fully to introduce my blog or podcast to the world, or the humans that I know. I want to become more vocal via social media and YouTube, but I am taking baby steps. I have been getting my YouTube voice ready for years now, lol maybe 2021 will be the year! Stay tuned and subscribe so you can walk with me along my journey.
Back to the script...throat chakra!
I wrote down this affirmation one day that simple said, "I will stand and live in my personal truth". I took this affirmation seriously but first I had to figure out what my "personal truth" meant. So I consulted spirit/GOD/Source and asked for wisdom and vision to see myself the way that Spirit see's me so I can discern what is my personal truth. What came next was nothing more than amazing but I still had to connect the dots, or accept the truth that was being revealed. The first thing that occurred was my grandmother who has transitioned visited me and she had this magnetic blue aura surrounding her, I can see it as I am writing these words. For a week or more my seven year old granddaughter kept seeing a blue light surrounding me, first she asked me why my eyes were blue, then for the next few days she would ask why was I blue!
I have only seen people's auras twice but never my own so this is pretty cool and for her to see my aura was pretty dope! When I say I had to connect the dots I had to research along with prayer and meditation what the color "blue" represented...you already know the Throat Chakra!
The blue aura that I seen during the visitation with my grandmother and that my grand daughter seen around me has two meanings that resonated with me the most.
I am always truthful to those around me
Soon I will find or encounter my spiritual teacher
The throat chakra is represented by the color blue, it is the 5th primary chakra and is located in the neck region and is apart of our endocrine and thyroid system. The throat chakra has a lot to do with our emotions, our creativity, communication and the ability that one has to speak their personal truth, purely and honestly. The throat chakra governs our neck, tongue and our mouth which are the portals through which we express ourselves freely and with understanding of our inner truths. I really cannot reiterate the personal truth aspect enough, I was trapped in not being able to stand in that place of personal truth for a very long time and it hindered me tremendously.
When your throat chakra is out of balance an individual will find it difficult to express their desires, wants and needs or even the opinions they have with self or others. It is impossible to be true to yourself with a blockage in your throat chakra. An individual will tell themselves lies in their own voice and believe the lies as a factual truth. When I say tell yourself lies, for an example affirming over oneself that they aren't worthy, deserving, fat, ugly, undesirable, a loser or stupid just to name a few, but these things are so far from the actual truth. These lies are centered around the imbalance and blockages that are in place.
When an individuals throat chakra is in harmony it is so much easier to express how you feel and why you feel how you feel boldly and fluently because you are speaking your truth! An individual will have the authority to stand up for themselves, they are honest with self and others and it is the most freeing feeling to embrace.
From my personal experience I was able to pinpoint the root of where my ability to express myself fully began, which was during my early childhood and I was also able to do the work to unblock that blockage.
Here is a list of the exercises that I used that assisted me in unblocking my throat chakra and setting my creativity free which has allowed me to start this blog. Keep in mind that chakras are energy centers that reside along the spine. The Chakras receive and send energy to the organs in our bodies and when this flow of energy is disrupted then we will experience some sort of imbalance or block which results in a health issue within our system.
