Healing Through the Chakras

A Tantric & Vedic Astrology Guide to Energy Alignment

As we move deeper into March, I’ve been reflecting on how energy flows through us and how it gets blocked. Just as the cosmos has its rhythms, so do our bodies, and nowhere is this more evident than in the chakras—the energy centers that govern our spiritual, emotional, and physical well-being.

Vedic Astrology and Tantra both teach us that true healing isn’t just about fixing problems—it’s about bringing energy back into balance. The planets influence different chakras, and when we work consciously with this knowledge, we can clear blockages, activate new potential, and step into greater harmony, power, and presence.

This week, let’s explore how Vedic Astrology and Tantra align with the chakras and how you can harness this knowledge to heal and transform your life.

The Chakras and Their Planetary Rulers

Each chakra is connected to specific planetary influences in Vedic Astrology, offering insights into where we might feel stuck or empowered. By understanding these connections, we can align with the cosmic forces that support our healing.

Muladhara (Root Chakra) – Saturn & Mars

• Governs stability, security, survival
• Blocked by fear, instability, lack of grounding
• Healing practices: Grounding meditation, walking barefoot, working with red stones

Swadhisthana (Sacral Chakra) – Venus & Moon

• Governs pleasure, emotions, sensuality, creativity
• Blocked by shame, repression, lack of emotional flow
• Healing practices: Tantric breathwork, dance, creative expression

Manipura (Solar Plexus Chakra) – Sun & Mars

• Governs confidence, personal power, motivation
• Blocked by self-doubt, fear of action, power struggles
• Healing practices: Core-strengthening exercises, fire breathwork, self-empowerment affirmations

Anahata (Heart Chakra) – Venus & Moon

• Governs love, connection, compassion
• Blocked by grief, heartbreak, emotional walls
• Healing practices: Heart-opening meditation, self-love rituals, forgiveness practices

Vishuddha (Throat Chakra) – Mercury

• Governs communication, truth, self-expression
• Blocked by fear of speaking up, holding back emotions
• Healing practices: Chanting, mantra work, journaling thoughts freely

Ajna (Third Eye Chakra) – Jupiter & Moon

• Governs intuition, wisdom, clarity
• Blocked by doubt, overthinking, closed perception
• Healing practices: Visualization, meditation, deep contemplation

Sahasrara (Crown Chakra) – Ketu & Neptune (spiritual awakening)

• Governs spiritual connection, enlightenment
• Blocked by ego, attachment to material reality
• Healing practices: Silence, stillness, surrender to the divine

By working with the planets and chakras together, we can pinpoint where our energy is blocked and take active steps toward healing.

Tantric Practices for Chakra Healing

In Tantra, healing isn’t about fixing something broken—it’s about removing resistance to our natural flow. Here are some powerful Tantric practices to work with each chakra:

Root Chakra – Grounding Rituals: Sit in stillness, place your hands on the earth, and breathe deeply, visualizing a red glowing energy at the base of your spine.

Sacral Chakra – Fluid Movement: Dance, sway, or engage in slow, sensual movement to awaken your creative energy.

Solar Plexus Chakra – Fire Breathwork: Practice Kapalabhati (fire breath) to activate your personal power and clear stuck emotions.

Heart Chakra – Loving-Kindness Meditation: Place your hands over your heart and repeat: “I am open to love, I am love, I give love freely.”

Throat Chakra – Mantra Chanting: Work with the mantra HAM to open communication and express your truth fearlessly.

Third Eye Chakra – Intuition Activation: Sit in darkness, close your eyes, and focus on your inner vision, asking for clarity.

Crown Chakra – Surrender Meditation: Sit in silence and let go of thought, allowing divine connection to flow.
