Winter
I think around springtime.

season Eupepe-times
Hehehe. Spring.
spring
3) What time of day or night did it occur?
Afternoon
Don't recall.
Began in daytime, but I didn't pay it much attention until
it started waking me up at about 2 a.m. every night for a
few weeks.
around the beginning of the evening
It happened at night in the early hours of the morning.
around the beginning of the evening, 7 p.m.
Don't know.
About 4 in the afternoon.
7am(ish)
4) What was the weather like in your area at the time?
Not sure. Probably fairly clear
Crazier than usual Minnesota spring weather. In fact, I remember driving to
my Qi Gong class on a 90 degree day while
the snow was still on the ground--extreme even for here in the
land of wild temperature fluctuation.
Major blizzard.
it was northern India, the weather was clear but cold, around 10 degrees
centrigrade
VERY snowy and stormy.
It was like summer time, with all windows open and a lot of fresh air
It was Sunday; i went before to my parents home to have lunch together
Dry, cool.
Hot quiet late Spring. New Mexico, dry heat. The room was dark, with thick,
heavy walls. I remember after the session, tasting a cup of coffee like I've
never tasted before; I still taste coffee that way.
Rainy (Seattle)
5) Did your kundalini awakening occur around any holidays (religious or secular)?
Not that I know of.
No
Ground Hog's Day.
no dutch ones, don't know about the indian ones
It happened around Imbolc (ancient and modern pagan holiday)
I think so. Sunday is a moment of relax. It was the result of a year
without vacancy.
Not that I'm aware of.
Nope
No
6) Do you think the time, date, weather or season has any significance?
No
Possibly. I have a theory that humans are sensitive to the
electro-magnetic field of the earth & it has been going a
little haywire the last few years. I'm wondering if EM activity
contributed to both the freak heatwave and my awakening.
Real significance
generally
transcends details...
No
As I posted above, it's a neat coincidence that it happened at Imbolc, the
day of Brighid, Celtic goddess of serpents and fire - the day that Brighid's
serpent emerges from the womb of the Earth Mother at Imbolc, according to
mythology. My kundalini awakening contained a vision of a great serpent
breathing fire! And the great serpent arose from the earth in my vision. So
yeah, I do think there's possibly some connection between the two. It has
been mentioned many times on this list that seasonal energy patterns have an
effect on kundalini energy. I think that for me the seasonal patterns are
probably significant because I'm a witch. My k is very highly around the
eight Celtic festivals, and new and full moons. Also, traditionally Imbolc
is a time of new beginnings, cleansing and spiritual initiations. KA is
definately all of the above! The time of night is significant because I do
meditation most often in the late evening/early morning....in the 'witching
hour(s)'. :) I don't think weather had any bearing on it.
About sex. The day after my awakening, i felt my boyfriend waa leaving me. I
was alone. My fealings were correct, I was left alone, and I am so actually.

I think what's in your blueprint would be significant. I don't think the
seasons have anything to do with it.
Not really. My awakening occured primarily because of regular effort and
sitting with a teacher. I awoke first in the presence of my teacher.
no
7) Any additional comments?
The things that seem to trigger connections to how/what/why my awakening
occured aren't related to time or season; more, it's a series of images. The
coffee, above is one. Another is seeing the face of Krishna overlayed on mine when
I looked in a mirror. Finally, it's the sense of the rhythm I tuned in to - it
was the recognition and acknowledgement of this simple sinusoidal movement
inside me that allowed me to step aside and let the magic happen.
I think it had everything to do with my own timetables, not what was
happening outside of me

was alone. My fealings were correct, I was left alone, and I am so actually.
