Here are my nearly unedited notes on Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets and how it might relate to the second chakra which is also called the sacral chakra:
As the story opens,
Harry's home life has improved but it is based on a lie.
Harry is no longer
living under the staircase but his owl is kept caged up so he cannot
communicate with his friends.
A strange elf
appears to Harry begging him not to return to Hogwarts because there
is a plot against him. The elf wants Harry kept safe because he
credits Harry with defeating Voldermort and believes if Harry is
killed Voldemort will return and so orchestrates Harry's second
imprisonment within the Dweasly house as his uncle puts bars on the
windows and imprisons Harry in a bedroom only letting him out twice a
day to use the bathroom and feeding him through a cat flap.
Harry's friends use
a flying car to bust Harry out, the car may represent the Chariot
from the Tarot deck.
The flying car or
chariot has to be sued again because the elf keeps Harry and Ron from
boarding the train to Hogwarts. Of course, Mrs McGonagle later
points out that the boys could have sent an owl with a message to let
the staff know that they were stranded but considering the elf had
already withheld mail from Harry's friends so Ron and Harry taking the Chariot again
may have been their only option of getting to Hogwarts.
The chariot becomes
entangled in the Whomping Willow.
The chariot comes
back later in the book, it has become wild but still recognizes Ron
as its master, it ends up saving both Ron and Harry from giant
spiders
The braggart
character only cares about worldly publicity and attention. All of
his stories are true but it is other people who have accomplished
them. He puts a memory charm on them so they cannot remember.
Harry finds Tom
Riddle's diary which is blank. After accidentally exposing ink to all
his books he notices Riddle's diary absorbs the ink. The diary ends
up containing a memory of the last time the Chamber of Secrets has
been open. But it is a deceiving memory.
The big bad monster
of the Chamber of Secrets is a giant snake called a Basilisk. The
Basilisk is a sort of Egyptian deity-monster that could cause death
with a single glance but in our study of the chakra systems, it is
also the Kundalini serpent making its way up the spinal column.
Interestingly, an indirect glance in the novel causes people to
become petrified like the gorgon Medusa is said ot have done to her
victims and also interestingly the thing that stops enlightenment,
the Kundalini serpent from making it to the crown is a calcified
pineal gland.
