Most people are familiar with the 7 main chakras that run up along the midline of the body, or they are aware of the 12-chakra system composed of five additional chakras, however there are many minor chakras as well. Depending on the learning system, there are at least 21 minor chakras in the human body. Two of the most important minor chakras are found in the palm of each hand, and they are referred to as the "palm chakras" or "hand chakras." The palm chakras are vital because they are believed to be a potent seat of energy for healing, perception and regeneration in holistic modalities, such as Reiki.
The Way to your Heart can be Found in your Palms
Through a network of energy channels, the palm chakras (energy centers) are intimately connected to the heart center or Anahata Chakra. Both palm chakras are important for the flow of life energy in the Toroidal Field, and their "openness" are symbolic of experiencing the fullness of life, and the reciprocity of giving and receiving energy and love. It's because of this palm-to-heart connection that healing energy is effortlessly transmitted between you and your client during a hands-on or hands-off Reiki session. Consequently, through your palms you can warmly create a deep sense of trust, as well as forge, a spiritual connection between you and your clients.
Palm Power!
Even though they are considered as minor or secondary chakras, the energy centers located in the palm of our hands are powerful tools of perception, intuition and healing. Although Reiki healers fully appreciate the quality of energy flowing through their palm chakras, anyone, with a little awareness of energy, and a great desire to do so, can grasp the importance of these healing centers. Many traditions believe we receive energy through our left palm and give energy with our right palm. However, during energy work or healing, leave room for the exception.
Open or balanced palm chakras are essential for energy healing. Blocked or imbalanced palm chakras might result in an energy flow from the healer that's weak or inconsistent. Reiki and other energy healing practitioners use various hand positions to help energy get where it's needed, nonetheless, blocked hand chakras might make that difficult. (Please note, it's possible just one of our palm chakras is blocked, and this would reflect whether we are having issues with giving or receiving.) For self-healing, the same problems might arise. Just be aware that blocked hand chakras create a closed energy system rather than an open one, preventing energy from flowing freely through your body and getting where it needs to go.
In some energy medicine circles, it's believed the right palm chakra turns in a counterclockwise direction while the left palm turns in a clockwise direction, one being the reflection (Yin/Yang) of the other. However, when it comes to energy work or healing, don't be too surprised when doing chakra work you have experienced something totally different. This is the beauty of energy work being driven, or guided, by Divine intelligence.
