The Hierophant
This archetype represents knowledge and education in its most accepted form. When you draw this card it indicates that traditional values are appropriate for any action, but also that your inner spiritual soul needs expression.
If you are asking a relationship question, the Hierophant signifies someone is acting in a conventional way or that you must seek out the guidance of someone who acts as a guru or mediator. It can also indicate that you must conform to certain rules if you are to move ahead with your plans.
The most important lesson the Hierophant teaches is that, however much you may trust or stick to your own beliefs, there are others who have their own too. You may be battling against restrictions imposed by others or perhaps circumstances, or an orthodox group of people is limiting the free-spirited, independent side of your nature.

How to Find out if your Chakras are Blocked?

If you've been feeling less vital and energetic or in an emotional funk, it's possible that you have a chakra that is clogged or stuck. Contrary to popular belief, chakras are not the newest fad in the yoga world, but rather an ancient system for understanding your body's energy.
The chakras are located in the central channel of the energetic spine, sometimes referred to as the Sushumna. This major route of energy flow (Nadi) starts at the base of the spine and runs up to the crown of the head.
What exactly are each of the chakra meanings, where are the chakras located and how would you know if you were stuck?

Signs of Blocked Energy at Each Chakra
1st Chakra: Being depleted of the first chakra energy feels like a survival crisis. You can’t get grounded because you are stuck in your head. By contrast, if you have too much energy at the root, you can become greedy or excessive in behaviors. These are misguided attempts to get grounded.
2nd Chakra: When someone is stuck in their sacral chakra, they struggle with being ruled by their emotions or the opposite of this, which is feeling numb or out of touch. There's also a correlation to sexual desire (or the lack thereof) at this level. Creativity and pleasure are both found at this energetic level.
3rd Chakra: This chakra is often considered the power center, and when out of balance, self-esteem may be low and decision-making can feel out of control. Temper flare-ups are also common when energy isn’t flowing well here.
4th Chakra: The heart chakra, when flowing with energy, feels filled with love, compassion, forgiveness, and acceptance. When there's a blockage at this energy level, anger, jealousy, grief, or self-hatred can be more prominent.
5th Chakra: This chakra is the source of speaking your most authentic truth. When energy is blocked or low here, fear of not being accepted or of being judged becomes a problem. You might also feel out of touch with your opinions and desires and have challenges in making choices.
6th Chakra: The word Ajna means “beyond wisdom,” and when this chakra is open, you experience expanded imagination, clairvoyance, and intuition. When there is a blockage at this level, there can be a tendency to be over-involved in fantasy or imagination. Lack of focus or clouded judgment can also occur.
7th Chakra: The crown chakra connects you to the wider universal energy, so when this area has a block, isolation or emotional distress can occur. This may present as an inability to set or follow through on goals or an overall lack of direction and feelings of disconnection.

In the next post, we will discuss ways to unblock our 7 chakras using some powerful techniques.

Chakra 101 Part One

Chakras. You’ve possibly heard them mentioned in yoga class. You’ve almost definitely heard the “New Age” character on TV or in a movie talk about someone’s chakras being blocked.
Maybe someone’s even given you the advice that you should work on a specific chakra. But that doesn’t mean you know what they are. Rest assured: You are not alone.
The history of chakras
Chakras have only recently become more well-known, with the growth in popularity of yoga and New Age philosophies in general. They are a complex and ancient energy system that originated in India. They were first mentioned in the Vedas, ancient sacred texts of spiritual knowledge dating from 1500 to 1000 BC. There’s a lot one can study about them.
So what should you know about the chakras
Chakra 101
Chakra (cakra in Sanskrit) means “wheel” and refers to energy points in your body. They are thought to be spinning disks of energy that should stay “open” and aligned, as they correspond to bundles of nerves, major organs, and areas of our energetic body that affect our emotional and physical well-being.
Some say there are 114 different chakras, but there are seven main chakras that run along your spine. These are the chakras that most of us are referring to when we talk about them.
Each of these seven main chakras has a corresponding number, name, color, specific area of the spine from the sacrum to the crown of the head, and health focus.
Root chakra
The root chakra, or Muladhara, is located at the base of your spine. It provides you with a base or foundation for life, and it helps you feel grounded and able to withstand challenges. Your root chakra is responsible for your sense of security and stability.
Sacral chakra
The sacral chakra, or Svadhisthana, is located just below your belly button. This chakra is responsible for your sexual and creative energy. It’s also linked to how you relate to your emotions as well as the emotions of others.
Solar plexus chakra
The solar plexus chakra, or Manipura, is located in your stomach area. It’s responsible for confidence and self-esteem, as well as helping you feel in control of your life.
Heart chakra
The heart chakra, or Anahata, is located near your heart, in the center of your chest. It comes as no surprise that the heart chakra is all about our ability to love and show compassion.
Throat chakra
The throat chakra, or Vishuddha, is located in your throat. This chakra has to do with our ability to communicate verbally.

Third eye chakra
The third eye chakra, or Ajna, is located between your eyes. You can thank this chakra for a strong gut instinct. That’s because the third eye is responsible for intuition. It’s also linked to imagination.
Crown chakra
The crown chakra, or Sahasrara, is located at the top of your head. Your Sahasrara represents your spiritual connection to yourself, others, and the universe. It also plays a role in your life’s purpose.

In part Two of this article, we will look into the consequences of blocked chakras and what to do about them.

Queen of Cups

Or that you are so emotionally willing to commit yourself to help or loving someone that you are repressing your own emotional needs. As a 'future' card, you will soon have to let go of any resentments or anger and be more compassionate with yourself and others.

Benefits of healing crystals and how to use them:
Healing crystals are believed to be form of therapy that uses gemstones to get rid of any negative energy. They are said to emanate uplifting vibrations that do wonders for your mind, body and soul. Each type of crystal has a "unique frequency and energy field, or resonance" that gives them special properties, according to The Little Book of Crystals by Judy Hall.
Humans have been using crystals since ancient times. Greeks and Romans often wore them for protection during battles, and Buddhist philosophies tout them as a form of medicine. Although there is no scientific evidence supporting crystals' benefits, it doesn't mean that we should disregard them entirely. It's possible that crystals still have some positive effects on mindfulness. Think about it: just like how we trust religious beliefs, the placebo effect exists. Positive thinking and placing hope on healing crystals might just work out for you, depending on your needs and beliefs.

What do these different healing crystals do?
Apparently, different crystals have different properties. If you want to discover which crystal suits you best, here are popular stones for your reference.

Tiger Eye

This bad boy is said to offer a boost in motivation and power, where it helps get rid of anxiety and self-doubt. Tiger Eye also guides you in making clear decisions, so it is probably a good idea to have them around when you're thinking about career aspirations, or when you need something to get you through a stressful situation.

Rose Quartz

Pink stands for love. Rose quartz helps you to open your heart to better connections. It improves relationships by restoring trust and offers solace during times of grief. And the best place to keep them is in the bedroom (of course). To align it with romantic energy, place the stone over your heart.

Clear Quartz

Clear Quartz is known for being a healing crystal. It regulates negative energy to allow for a balanced self, strengthening your internal sense of well-being. The crystal also purportedly stimulates your immune system. To amplify its effects, use them together with rose quartz.

Amethyst

This beautiful crystal emits relaxing vibes. This gorgeous purple stone is great for insomniacs – it claims to improve sleep and aids you in understanding dreams by producing a calming energy. Plus, amethyst reduces headaches and eases stress, which makes meditation easier and more effective. Through ridding your mind of negative thoughts, it is said to bring forth spiritual wisdom, too.

Citrine

Look no further if you want to add some joy to your life. This brightly coloured stone is a symbol of happiness and light. Citrine quells negative thoughts like anxiety, instead bringing out warmth, optimism and clarity. It also encourages success — perfect for entrepreneurs or those pursuing demanding professions.

Moonstone

Moonstones brings new beginnings. It claims to be a source of inner strength by motivating us to be in tune with our deepest emotions. Hence, moonstone relieves stress and promotes positive thinking, enabling you to move forward with renewed energy and purpose.

How should you go about choosing your crystal?
The first step is to look for a type of crystal that is aligned with your individual concerns. But on top of that, you should also trust your gut, and pick a crystal that you feel a connection with — be it the texture, colour, or even what you know about the stone. Pick it up, feel it, and let intuition do its job. This way, you'll be more attuned to your senses rather than just going along with what outside sources tell you to do. After all, it's your crystal!

In general, when it comes to colours, those of darker shades are more centred on safety, while white stands for purity and green promotes calmness. In a similar vein, red stones focus on energy, pink for romance and those that are yellow on wealth.

Does the size of a healing crystal make a difference?
Yes! The bigger the crystal, the more energy it holds. There are gemstones as tiny as your nail, or those that are as tall as a human being. It depends on what you want (or can afford), really. Regardless of size, though, it remains true that all crystals absorb energy. Another thing to note is that round crystals emit energy more equally, while those with pointed ends direct positive energy inward or negative energy out from the body.

All about healing crystals: What they are, their benefits, how to use them, and more .

Where should you place your crystals?
You can keep them anywhere, although it is important to note that putting them close to you would be the most effective. This way, crystals can emit their positive energy wherever you're at. A few great places are your bedside table, in your handbag, a room that you frequent at home, or at work. Some people even hide one in their bra.

How should you use the crystal?
Hold your crystal in your palms and focus on a specific goal. Try to visualise the outcome or think about calming thoughts, if you're looking to reduce anxiety. Silently repeat a mantra, for instance "please let me see a clear direction for tomorrow". The crystal will absorb your intention and then be activated. After that, you can use it in whatever way you want, whether it is wearing it around your neck as a pendant or simply grasping them when you feel a need to.

What can you do to care for your crystal?
Crystals need to be recharged occasionally. Bathe them in cold water or a salt bath to rinse off any bad energy they may have accumulated overtime. Reset your intention, then place them under the sun at your windowsill for a few hours. You can also put them under moonlight. This will help your crystals hold more energy.
