Serpentine essence
Serpentine essence is a yin essence. It’s creative, nourishing, and healing, and it moves you toward growth on all levels, breaking up stagnant energies to bring upon softness and a healthy energy flow so things will naturally grow and evolve. The essence will connect you to your Soul’s rhythm and help you shed ancestral patterns, past lives, or karmic contracts you have been burdened with.
It awakens the dormant power and strength of the root chakra, allowing the energetic connection it holds with the Earth and divine feminine energy to gently rise up through every single chakra- starting at the root all the way up to the crown and out of the top of the head. It’s cleansing and harmonizing for all the chakras, but its power starts at the root, at the core of who you are, to clear the way through the unconscious wounds, patterns, and conditioning, and the story on your DNA, to uncoil the energetic hold these stories and patterns had on you. Its energy lifts what’s heavy, dense, stuck, and stagnant. It raises awareness of yourself, your body, and your internal nature. It brings toxic energy up and out for release.
This is why the Serpentine Essence is one of the best crystal essences to support you in finding stability through all the big shifts in life when you’re truly ready to break out of old versions of yourself and rise to higher levels. It activates and awakens the energy that lies dormant at the base of your spine. When this energy awakens, it ascends through each chakra, bringing the divine feminine energy of the Earth all the way up through your entire system.
Another area that this essence affects greatly is the solar plexus, where we hold our personal power. That is why this essence makes a wonderful companion when you are tired of living out everyone else’s ideas and reaffirming the same old patterns that essentially keep you stuck. It supports you in claiming your own power, opening up to your innate power and stepping into the role of the creator. It reminds you that your needs and desires matter, and that you have to let go of what others want and expect so you can find your own authentic way in life.
Serpentine essence balances the heat that rises up due to an imbalance in emotions such as anger and frustration, for instance, balancing yin and yang, creating a cooling effect. There are many physical symptoms that are based on too much heat, and they will eventually settle down once a true emotional balance has been established. Such symptoms could be hot flashes, indigestion, inflammation, hypertension, etc.
The Serpentine Essence helps release toxicity from the physical and energetic bodies by slowing down the progression of pathogenic and harmful energies, physically, mentally and emotionally. It breaks up toxic patterns of the past, so you can get rid of the Old to make room for the New, just like the snake that sheds its skin.
