The Seven Veils: Chakra-Enhanced-Sex

The Seven Veils: Chakra-Enhanced-Sex

To recap from the previous blog, “The Seven Veils: How to Feel Better About Yourself,” there are seven major chakras along the spine. From the bottom to the top the schema each chakra focuses on are: security, sensation, power, love, communication, insight, and unity. The development and balancing of these chakras is key to achieving full potential and full self-awareness, thus enabling life fulfillment.  

But they can also be employed for other purposes such as greater sexual satisfaction for your self and your partner. The simplest and most obvious way to do this is to expand your sensation chakra to include your partner and your entire body. This will stimulate your partner’s sensation chakra as well as your’s, giving greater sensitivity and pleasure to your partner and your self. 

Most people want to feel loved. So, you can include expanding your love chakra to encompass both of you, as well, which will further enhance the pleasure of the sexual activity. You can expand both chakras at the same time, or alternate from one to the other. If you alternate you can increase the frequency of cycling as you draw closer to the climax. Depending on your partner’s personality you can also expand the unity chakra, or other chakras as well. 

If your partner is also familiar with chakra development and you wish to use the simplest enhancement you can expand your sensation chakra while your partner is expanding his or her love chakra. And then you can expand your love chakra, while your partner expands his or her sensation chakra. Or you can expand the same chakras at the same time. With practice, you can synchronize the expansions and contractions with the sexual motions, or with the frequency of breaths.  

If you wish to use all of the chakras, I recommend you start with the security chakra and one by one work your way up to the unity chakra, ideally reaching the unity chakra shortly before the climax. You can work your way up the chakras slowly so that there is a single run up the spine, or you can go faster so that there are several cycles before the denouement. If you wish to climb the full spectrum of chakras together you can both expand the same chakra at the same time, or one partner can be ahead by one chakra, or two, or three. There are obviously many possible combinations. You can coordinate moving to the next chakra by some previously agreed upon signal. You can try various sexual positions and determine if lining up the chakras in paralell, or not lining up chakras produces better pleasure.

Since we have a root chakra followed by six “notes” you can explore Western Music Theory for various forms of harmony and see what you achieve. And since each chakra has a “color”, Color Theory could suggest interesting interactions. You could even choose to not select any particular chakra, but rather let what your partner needs most make the selection. A variation of Choiceless Awareness.

You can customize the sexual experience to include things like: sex making your partner feel secure, sex that is intensely sensual, sex that makes your partner feel empowered, sex that makes your partner feel loved, sex that is the ultimate in communication, sex that provides needed insight, or sex that provides the experience of union. 

Be a considerate lover and prioritize your partner’s experience.
