The Bible tells us that Jesus cast seven demons out of Mary Magdalene—a mysterious act that has puzzled scholars and mystics alike for centuries. But what if these “demons” weren’t external entities at all but inner energetic imbalances? What if this story holds a powerful metaphor for spiritual healing through the ancient system of the chakras?
In many esoteric traditions, the number seven represents wholeness, and in Hindu philosophy, it corresponds directly to the seven major chakras—energetic centers that govern the body, mind, and Spirit. These chakras each carry both divine potential and what some call “demons”—not in a literal sense, but as emotional patterns, traumas, and illusions that can obstruct our light.
Mary Magdalene has long been misunderstood. Far from the tarnished image given by history, many now recognize her as a devoted spiritual practitioner—perhaps even the closest initiate of Jesus. Her transformation, marked by the release of “seven demons,” may symbolize a complete energetic purification, a clearing of the chakras leading to spiritual awakening.
Blocked Chakras, become homes to a particular emotional demon:
Root – fear
Sacral – guilt
Solar Plexus – shame
Heart – grief
Throat – lies
Third Eye – delusion
Crown – attachment
Jesus, as a Master of Light and Love, may have guided Mary through these inner realms, helping her face and transcend these limiting forces. Her path serves as a reminder that true exorcism is an inner work—a spiritual practice of truth, awareness, and alignment.
As seekers today, we, too, are called to release our demons. Through meditation, self-inquiry, and conscious living, we purify the energy centers and return to our divine essence. Mary Magdalene’s journey is also ours: a sacred path toward freedom, wholeness, and union with the Spirit.
