The Knees
One of many largest and most advanced joints of the human physique, it’s the knees which permit motion to happen between your higher and decrease leg. With out knees you’d stroll stiff and upright, shifting solely out of your hip joint. With out knees, you wouldn’t be capable of leap and soar to nice heights, as you couldn’t bend your legs to provide the contraction you want in an effort to rise. It’s your knees that help you stroll or run, as additionally they help you ‘select the tempo’ at which you journey by way of life.
An ‘Out There’ Joint
Bodily, knees are an ‘on the market’ joint, as nicely. They’re so susceptible ‘bodily’ and but are positioned beneath a lot stress from the complete physique and thoughts. Simply consider it. Your knee cap (the patella) faces out to the world, in whichever route you level it in. When sitting, it may be the furthermost level of the physique that receives and provides vitality to and from its environment. It’s usually the first level of name in receiving the drive of life. Have you ever ever knocked your knee cap and practically jumped out of your pores and skin? And likewise, have you ever ever been struck at the back of the knee, inflicting you to virtually immediately collapse?
Certainly, it’s that very ‘vulnerability’ of this life directional centre, which leads to the knees deserving a particular place inside the functioning of the vitality methods of the physique – the chakras
The Knee Chakra
Proper behind, by way of (and in entrance) of the knee is a vortex of vitality, a convergence of above and under, that sits inside your vitality discipline of sunshine. This vortex is generated by the functioning of the knee, because the centre which permits us to bend and flex, selecting our life route (and velocity) at will. The Knee Chakra is small in comparison with that of your main vitality centres. It’s comparable in measurement to the chakras generated on the soles of your ft. Certainly, the two are linked. I sense the knee chakra as being in regards to the measurement of an outstretched hand.
Your knee chakra works in tandem together with your base or root chakra and serves to stabilise your presence within the bodily world. Each time, I start a therapeutic session, I’m intuitively drawn first to the knees. I place my fingers upon them or within the vitality discipline simply out from the knee caps. This serves to stability, stabilise and floor the vitality movement of the individual I’m working with. And I at all times obtain the suggestions of how comforting and supportive it feels to carry and embrace the knees. Attempt it now your self. Simply place your fingers over your knee caps. Maintain your fingers there for a minute or so and really feel the deep sense of stability and safety that’s generated by your targeted consciousness. Your knees might even start to speak with you. What do they are saying?
Your Bridge Between Dimensions

And thus, you may take into account them to be a bridging vitality between your religious actuality and your bodily actuality. Specifically, they function the bridge between actualising your religious path whereas residing your bodily life. Your knees interchange vitality and messages between your higher vitality centres (these related together with your religious path) and your decrease vitality centres (these related together with your bodily path). This is likely one of the key the explanation why your knees could be put beneath such pressure, notably in case you regularly select to disregard the messages and steering of spirit and proceed to stay a purely ‘bodily targeted’ life.
