Kundalini energy sits like a sleeping serpent at the root Chakra. It awakens gradually when the sexual energy is harnessed and directed upwards, through chastity, instead of downwards through sexual intercourse.
It works its way up gradually as One is chaste, contemplating God, and is devoted to a spiritual path.
For me… it began with a daily practice of yoga and meditation. I also had a deep desire to know God. That desire led me to my encounter with my twinflame. But, if One doesn't meet their twinflame in this outer world, One can encounter their twinflame in the inner world.
With a strong desire to know God/Love, One can reunite with their twinflame. It is a spiritual experience with inner transformation. It unfolds in divine timing.
For me, it was years and years of suffering because I felt crazy. Past life memories came flooding back. My dreams were reshaping my perception of reality. My ego had to be put in check. Journaling became good medicine.
If you are wanting to awaken kundalini energy learn about kundalini, dreams, twinflames, and read Rumi. But expect to put years into working with kundalini. And expect for your world to be turned upside down!
