The most significant feature of the menorah is its tree-like shape and arrangement of the branches on its trunk. However, the relevance of the pattern within the branches and trunk is not revealed until you turn the menorah sideways and place it next to the chakra system.

The Divine Pattern is revealed in the branches.

Seven candle menorah vs. nine candle menorah? The earliest version menorah we can find shows seven candles (three branches, one center mast) for seven energetic centers. In essence this is correct, however, the heart chakra system is made up of three chakras. The upper and lower chakras are Yin energies designed to receive energies from the upper and lower chakras, and the center heart chakra is the expressive center for the whole system. It is my belief the fourth branch was added to accurately account for the heart chakra system. We are made of a trinity of trinities.

Branches of the menorah reveal our Divine architecture, providing us with a blueprint of the energetic design of the human spiritual being. Our Creators inner programming illustrates how we are designed to find balance and harmony while living in the physical world as spiritual beings. We are wonderfully made with a loving disposition, even without knowing why. Take hope in the fact that we are engineered to love one another.

The slides below illustrate the symbiotic nature of each pair of chakras. The upper chakras govern the lower chakras, and the lower chakras energize the upper chakras. We are governed by consciousness and empowered by understanding our inner design. The graphics below illustrate energetic connections between the heart chakra and the upper and lower chakras.

Chakra Blocks and Resolves

What is a BLOCK?
A Block is a distrubing frequency or vibration within the chakra system, that can occur when we experience pain, suffering or for some reason produce an energy or action out of harmony with our higher conscience.

What is a RESOLVE?
Resolve is an action you can take to bring your emotions/energy back into alignment with your integral self. The Resolve can involve the use of a technique to handle the energy, apolozing, forgiveness, righting a wrong, open communication, truth telling, unconditional love, mercy, seeing the big picture, or recognizing that God is our greatest source of survival.

In essence, chakras are energetic control points that regulate the flow of prana–life force energy within our body. As we make decisions in life or experience some form of trauma due to a myriad of reasons, our energy can become blocked or disturbed, reducing the flow of current to the heart chakra and related organs within the body. Disfunctional energy also leads to disfunctional operations within organs in the body.

Chakra Blocks and Resolves
The graphics below will provide you with an introduction to the energetic blocks and resolves for each chakra. Branches of the menorah diagram our Creators energetic design for the human spiritual being. We are designed to find energetic balance in a world of danger, sexual seduction, competition for power, desire for love, to express love, to feel bliss, to connect with others, to find a solution to the many issues we face and to connect with the Divine.

The Divine Pattern within the menorah provides us with practical information we can use daily in our life.

Tools of Consciousness

The Menorah provides us with a most useful tool in the form of a map we can use to help unravel the many issues we face in life. Without a map we are left with issues subject to debate and dismissal. Our view of reality is one of the most important aspects of life. I would invite you to test each of the pairs of Blocks and Resolves in your life to test their validity.

Life is an inner game – Like any game, we play better when we know the game and play by the rules. The game of life is not about physicality–but about energy, frequency, color and consciousness- we can physically feel and identify as energy what feels good, bad, right or wrong with a variety of intensities.

Energy follows the laws of physics:

• Energy in motions tends to remain in motion.

• The energy we send around comes around.

Benefits of Inner Transcendence

Getting to know your BLOCKS and RESOLVES will help you to better manage the issues of life as they occur with greater success. Without understanding how to manage the matters of life we all face we are at a dis-advantage, often suffering much longer than necessary to correct the action. Ofter the correction is never found and we take that lesson to our grave.

As human spiritual beings, we are empowered with understanding. Our capacity to survive and thrive is limited by our level of consciousness and what we believe is possible. With understanding we awaken to our true nature, our true power and to the potential that lies within each of us. Once you have a basic understanding of the nature of things, you will be able to live your life and passion with a greater intensity. You will be able to focus on what truly matters on a soul-u-lar level. With a clear mission, you will be empowered with the winds of the Divine at your back. You learn to travel down-stream in the flow of divine current flowing through your life.

With knowledge and wisdom of our spiritual assets, we enjoy creative cause over our life. Without understanding, we are a slave to our physical master – the body.
