On Fairness--a Chakra Poem
By Stephanie S. Larsen

Fairness comes on my terms (says red)
while

Fairness does not apply to me (in orange.)

If fairness can only be fair if valid (on yellow,)
then fair is fair enough (for green,)

for fairness is wisdom (now, that's blue.)

And even though it can get ignored and we can get along without it, (as every purple knows,)

still, fair is reason, and fair is kind (for violets wish for more.)

Fairness shows more ways to be one
than anyone can behold.

Quizz

The quiz is confusing..... 5 questions, but 7 chakras, it is really not clear on how to determine and use this quiz.
Makes it hard to work through the rest of this book not having worked out how to do the quiz. Maybe the author can give a better explanation.

Loved this book. It is a MUST READ for those who meditate. Especially for those just learning. I liked the format and information.

[Claudia Blanton · Rating 4 out of 5]

I received a free copy of this book in return for an honest review.

I am somewhat familiar with the chakra system, so I thought this book would be pretty interesting when I first read the summary. And it truly was. Written in an entertaining yet informative fashion, Discover Your Master Chakra is part guide book, part workbook, that allows you to connect to your master chakra, which guides your personality.

It kind of reminds me - in format and concept - of a book on Zodiac signs, taking the same principle of having a sign or a chakra assigned to you, that fits your personality, and guides who you are, and who you will be compatible with.

While I believe that we as humans are a lot more complex than to be clearly defined by any system, I found it entertaining, and at times, it hit home - matching some of what I thought of myself already with the Master Chakra color, that the book said I was.

I love the workbook part. I found a lot of the questions to be great journal starters, which could be a
useful part of your journey of self-discovery, and growth.

I also loved that Stephanie Larson included meditation into this book because I am a believer in the transformational power of meditation, no matter which forms one chooses to apply.

Overall, Discover Your Master Chakra was a good, entertaining and light-hearted read, that I would recommend for anyone who is interested in the chakra system but wants to read something with a little bit of a different approach.

الكتاب ده رائع!

كنت قريت بالصدفة مقال عن الشاكرات والعلاقات ، بيفسر احنا ليه بننجذب لأشخاص معينة ونحس بالكيميا معاها اكتر أو أقل من أشخاص تانية ، على حسب ايه الشاكرات المفتوحة عنده وبيستخدمها وازاي ده بيقربني أو بيبعدني في مقابل ايه الشاكرات المفتوحة كمان عندي.
وانه ازاي شخص شاكرا القلب عنده مقفولة بنوصف شعورنا نحيته أنه زي اللي قافل على نفسه أو حسيت بحاجز أو جدار معاه بيكون ده فعلا شكل شاكرا القلب عنده. وأنك تقدر تصلح علاقتك مع شريكك عن طريق الشاكرات.

واللي اخدني بعدها للكتاب الحلو ده..
عن أنه لكل حد منا ماستر شاكرا! شاكرا رئيسية بيشوف ويتصل مع الآخرين والعالم من خلالها، وبتكون فيها مواهبه! وبتشرح ايه احسن حالة بيكون عليها الشخص ده أما يستخدم مواهبه، وايه اسوء حالة بيكون عليها أما مايطورهاش.
كنت محتاجة اقابل معلم حقيقي عشان اعرف من خلاله نفسي، فأقدر اميزها بسهولة في الكتاب ده.. انا اللي بترشدني هي شاكرا الحلق. وهي كاتبه هنا تفاصيل انا عمر ما حد وصفني بيها بالدقة دي.. كنت حاسة بالاستمتاع والسعادة وانا بقراه!

Overall I loved this book. It was well written and easy to follow. It was pretty spot on once I found out what my chakra was. There is a small quiz inside the book to determine your master chakra. When I took this quiz I wasn’t quite sure of the results because I had one answer that was every color but I had two that where orange so I went on to her website and took the quiz and found out I was am orange for sure. ( http://www.awakenedbystephanie.com/ma... )

After reading the section on the orange chakra I realized it was pretty spot on with my personallity. The Orange chakra is the Sacral Chakra.

There are two ways you can read this book. One being in its entirety or read just the color you are. I read mine and my husbands. In the back of the book their are workbooks for each color. I give this book a 5 out of 5 stars due to the fact its a easy read and it was spot on.

When I read about my color, I immediately recognized myself. I was a little surprised that I wasn't more surprised about who I am--but I guess I already knew. And because of this, I think I paid more attention to the other color chapters. I felt like if my description was accurate, the others must also be. To be honest, I found the descriptions of the other colors much more interesting than my own. That's where I learned more than I thought I would. I realized how much I didn't know about certain personalities, yet it was also easy for me to see how people in my life fit into the various categories. It was strange to realize I could know myself so well, and others so little--but the author made me feel like I was let in on the secret. And that made me feel good. After all, this is "good" reads!

Interesting!

I don't know a lot of things about chakras. Only the basics and what you learn at yoga. So it was an interesting read as you go through all the colors to detect your personality.
A bit difficult to real understand which color you are as some of my personality traits where in a bit of different colors.
I think I'm a blue drama queen with a bit of redish pain in the ass. And I also have the creativity of a purple.
If you want to discover more about you, have a look at this book!

I love how all the chakra colors describe each characteristic of each chakra, and there is a test to take at the beginning of the book to find out which chakra color you identify as. The way I gathered from reading the test and each color, the interpretation is up for the reader to gather information from each chakra color and see what it is we need to work on with each color, and that we embrace our differences and work on them so that we can understand each other more fully and embrace and use it as a tool to build us as better individuals to respect each other in a different way.

It was very helpful! I was able to discover my master chakra with the help of workbooks, questionnaires, and detailed descriptions. I can now move forward and focus on my heart (green) chakra. I highly recommend this book as a starter for anyone who is interested in chakras and spirituality.

[Morgan Kay · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is the first chakra book I’ve dabbled with. I liked taking the quiz at the beginning, it was a little confusing but once I figured it out I thought it was really cool! Some stuff was way over my head but I learned my master chakra is red and my two side chakras are orange and violet.

Informative

[Nicole Zimmer · Rating 3 out of 5]

I found out that my master Chakra was orange. I enjoyed this book and reading a bit about each chakra and their descriptions.

[Arielle Eugene · Rating 3 out of 5]

Kind of a easy read but not for a beginner to Chakras.

[kate · Rating 5 out of 5]

mainly just read the parts i resonate with but it was very enlightening

[Rogue Blackwood · Rating 2 out of 5]

This has a good premise I think. But the execution wasn't there for me. The "test" for finding your master chakra is 5 questions long. Maybe, for some those are enough to find your strongest features but for me, that is not nearly enough points to check for the majority energies.

So for anyone else that is multi-faceted I feel you'll have issues with identifying your chakra using that test. Also, as an energy healer, I'm a bit unsure at the basis of the main claim of the book. There are probably hundreds of books that work on balancing your chakras and evening your energy and getting the chakras to spin optimally. This is to prevent certain chakras from being overwhelming and taking on to much as others close or get blocked.

So is this a good use of finding your spiritual gifts? Or is it simply showing the chakras in your system that aren't getting enough energy or love?

Overall, this was a miss for me. I was expecting more detailed and thorough tests and more complete profiles. Which maybe was asking too much. But being more used to spiritual tools like Numerology, Astrology, Human Design, and even the Enneagram I was hoping for something more layered.

It did have some good questions in the workbook sections but nothing that was super eye-opening. I think most will be better off going for one of the fore-mentioned systems to learn about spiritual gifts and purpose.

I received this book from the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.

I enjoyed this book. I'm familiar with the chakras, and wasn't sure what to expect in regard to the master chakra, such as what it was, and how to utilize it. The author's take is unique and interesting. Although the basis for her information seems rooted, at least in part, in the 7 main chakras, the book focuses more on a main chakra/personality that guides us. The author offers plenty of information and a quiz to help readers identify their master chakra. And the 2nd half of the book offers workbooks for each color, with thoughtful questions and ideas to help you identify your weaknesses, and enhance your strengths. I loves books with quizzes and workbooks, so that's always a plus. I also liked the focus on strengths and callings.

Overall it was a fun book anyone with an interest in chakras and personal growth would enjoy.

I don’t know if I’ve ever been so perfectly matched with a book as this one! Discover Your Master Chakra by Stephanie S. Larsen touched on everything I’m interested in, the science of color, chakras, and connecting all of this with a person’s personality. I was absorbed within the first dozen pages, drawn in through the descriptions of types of chakras and personality types associated with colors. Not only will the reader learn about chakras, but also about the types of personalities that match each color. For example, yellow people are thinkers, green people are healers. There are specific traps people of a certain color personality can fall into, as well as various gifts they might have. The list of famous people under each color helped me understand the traits of the color as well, and I enjoyed reading personal accounts of people who were a specific color personality.

One of the best parts of the book was a quiz to determine your color. I was a violet, though I thought for sure I was a blue until I read further into the descriptions! The book goes on with these color descriptions of personalities, side chakras and light partners (how the colors work together), jobs for each color personality, and Master Chakra Workbooks. I can’t say enough about how much I enjoyed this book. Discover Your Master Chakra is interesting and informative while remaining entertaining and enlightening. Author Stephanie S. Larsen concludes with an appendix: the days of the week associated with each color, crystal colors, and key characteristics. Basically, everything is included here, and the reader should have a great time determining their color! Highly recommended!
