Earth Energy Healing

In the 1960s, a Canadian researcher Frances Nixon (1910-1984) began pioneering research into a field of study she coined as vivaxis. Vivaxis is a portmanteau of the Latin terms for life and center, and demonstrates the earth energy healing frequency flowing from the planet’s core connected to an individual’s own energetic field.

Humans have their own magnetic field, biomagnetism, as discussed in the lecture below at the Thayer School of Engineering at Dartmouth College. Using a very sensitive detection device known as “SQUID” (superconducting quantum interference device), it can detect these subtle energies–that Traditional Chinese Medicine calls qi. These SQUIDs can identify abnormalities, say, in the brain and may help to diagnose disorders. Most importantly, it confirms humans’ energetic qualities and how energy healing modalities may be at work.

As recent as March 2019, a biologist, neuroscientist and neuroengineer studied and concluded that humans have a geomagnetic sense (akin to your other five senses), just as honey bees respond behaviorally to it. While the human magnetoreception observed was via electroencephalography (EEG) and so was unconscious to the participants in the study, these brain changes may materially affect our behavior without our knowing it.

Meanwhile, as detailed in The Vivaxis Connection: Healing Through Earth Energies by Juda Jacka, ND, Nixon theorized that every person has a unique energy frequency and maladies of the frequency can become disorders and diseases of the body, because it disrupts the vivaxis. Her research included the establishment in 1970 of the Northwest Magnetics Research Society which lead to the Vivaxis Energies Research Society (1974) and ultimately to the Vivaxis Energies Research International Society (VERIS) (1977-2001). When VERIS ceased operations, its knowledge was given to the Alternative and Integrative Medical Society (AIMS) at the University of British Columbia.

This theory of the human-Earth energy connection and our unique neurological ability to sense magnetism bring up questions about how we can all be healed by a stronger connection with and awareness of Earth’s energy healing qualities.

Geomagnetism, the Moon and Human Health

A magnetic field engulfs the Earth by virtue of its spinning movement around a molten liquid metal alloy inner and outer core. Earth’s magnetic field measures an average intensity of 25 Gauss (25 G) at or near the core. In contrast, you experience about 1 G walking on the planet’s surface on a daily basis. This electrical energy generates north and south magnetic poles, that happen to be exactly the opposite of our north and south hemisphere (so the south magnetic pole is in our northern hemisphere, and vice versa).

A Miami psychiatrist, Arnold Lieber, MD, in the mid-1970s, writes a commonly cited and attacked statistical data analysis of human behavior based on another close celestial body, our moon. In The Lunar Effect: Biological Tides and Human Emotions, Dr. Lieber argues that the empirical data shows that the moon affects our mental health as much as it affects the tides. He doesn’t state that the moon causes delirium or criminal intent in humans, but rather that gravity affects the nervous system negatively. And, if someone is predisposed toward unstable mental health, this can lead to bad outcomes from the moon’s gravitational stress.

Much has been made of arguments against these findings, and in 1982, researcher Salvatore J. Garzino went to great lengths, in “Lunar Effects on Mental Behavior: A Defense of the Empirical Research,” to prove Dr. Lieber’s empirical basis for his study and book.

What is unequivocal is that over the course of human evolution on which we have only developed to live on Earth, its gravitational force has a remarkable effect on us. Astronauts change on a cellular level when they go to space and back, because of the lack of gravity. Vivaxis or qi, our health is determined by the quality of our connection to Earth’s energy.

So, living in one part of the world versus another may very well have positive or deleterious effects on your mental and physical health. For Earth energy healing qualities, though, we can look to specific locations on our planet that have special healing properties.

Earth’s Energy Chakra Points and Vortices

From Glastonbury and Shaftesbury, England to the massive red stones structures of central Australia to Great Pyramids at Giza in Egypt, there are concentrations of Earth’s energy at these and other special locations. These are known as chakra points and vortices.

Chakra points on Earth are similar to the human chakras we’ve written about, and they are locations where energy moves inward predominantly toward the Earth’s core. While the chakra vortices are spiraling energy outward mostly away from the center of the Earth.

The following are the locations and major characters, as explained in “Harnessing the Energy of the Earth’s Chakras,”

First Chakra (Root, base):

Location: Mt. Shasta, California

Symbolizes: Divine source, our roots, the interface between body, mind and spirit

Inspires: Innocence, purity, hope, self-discipline, creative power

Second Chakra (Sacral):

Location: Lake Titicaca on Bolivia/Peru border

Symbolizes: Kundalini energy, creative birth, sexual energy, fertility, seat of playfulness, evolutionary advancement, relationships of all kinds

Inspires: Freedom, developing inward sense of self and outward awareness of others, experiencing the world through creative expression

Third Chakra (Solar plexus):

Location: Uluru and Kata Tjuta, Australia

Symbolizes: Vitality and health of all living things, source of insight, memory and higher learning, peace

Inspires: Personal power, contentment, standing still in the midst of conflict, selfless service, harmony

Fourth Chakra (Heart):

Location: Glastonbury or Shaftsbury, England

Symbolizes: The bridge balancing upper (thoughts/mind) and lower (feelings) chakras where spirit or true self resides

Inspires: Unconditional love, spiritual growth, compassion, devotion, discernment, sense of oneness

Fifth Chakra (Throat):

Location: The Great Pyramids, Egypt, or Mt. Sinai/Mt. of Olives

Symbolizes: Connection to nature, communication “headquarters,” portal to other dimensions and entities, voice of the earth, mutual respect for life forces

Inspires: Clarity and unity in purpose, self-expression, diplomacy, playful detachment, power, will, harmony

Sixth Chakra (Third eye):

Location: Western Europe (presently in transit to Brazil)

Symbolizes: Realization of the eternal, mystical, authentic self, applying wisdom to future advancement

Inspires: Intuition, spiritual vision, truth, forgiveness, compassion

Seventh Chakra (Crown):

Location: Mt. Kailash, Tibet

Symbolizes: Connection to sense of unity and oneness

Inspires: High levels of consciousness and enlightenment, wisdom, illumination, awareness that separation is an illusion

Earth Energy Healing: Human to Human Approaches

Is it possible that energetic healing modalities, such as Reiki, are conduits of the Earth’s energetic healing qualities? What may at first sound implausible becomes possible when we view it through the lens of our bodies being energy conduits.

The Earth is generating magnetism through electric currents flowing through its iron alloy core. Humans are biomagnetic. And, we are affected by both the Earth and Moon’s gravitational pushes and pulls on us as we hurtle through space-time.

Energetic healing modalities are proving to be great integrative, complementary medicines in traditional, allopathic medical environments. Meanwhile, more studies are showing that our bodies can generate concentrated forms of biomagnetism. For example, in “Detection of extraordinary large bio-magnetic field from human hand during external Qi emission,” 37 subjects with keen abilities show the ability to generate a magnetic field unaided through their meditative practices. From Qigong to Reiki to acupuncture and acupressure, it looks more and more promising that healing modalities showing more scientific rigor matching up well with ancient healing practices.
