Elon's Crown Chakra And The Failure Of Doge
Elon Musk announced this past week that he was leaving DOGE, the Department of Government Efficiency. Tasked with cutting waste and fraud from almost every department in the Federal Government, Musk had promised to cut $2 trillion from the budget.
Throughout his 130 day tenure, Musk has been criticized for providing inaccurate accounting of cuts, requiring federal workers to justify their positions via weekly emails, and jeopardizing the safety of Americans by firing the experts who oversee our nuclear weapons arsenal. His efforts have been met with protests, lawsuits, and boycotts.
As Musk wraps up his tenure in Washington, the Partnership for Public Service estimates that actions taken by Doge will not only NOT save money, but will actually cost taxpayers $135 billion this year.
Even Donald Trump, speaking to his staff about Musk and Doge, was heard to ask, "Was it all bullshit?"
Self-Serving Or Simply Incompetent?
Much of the criticism lodged against Doge has to do with its staff, in particular the "DOGE kids", software engineers between the ages of 19 and 24 with no government experience. The manner in which they have been making cuts has been arbitrary, without a comprehensive understanding of the roles of the federal workers being fired, or consideration of the long-term consequences.
At the same time it's been revealed that the agencies targeted by Musk have all been investigating or filing complaints against Starlink, Tesla, SpaceX, Neuralink, or Musk's political action committee.
So was Musk simply unprepared for the scope of what it might take to properly trim the federal budget? Or was there a hidden agenda all along?
Hand Gestures and The Zones of Intention
It's not uncommon for verbal communications to be undependable, to say the least. Body language, by contrast, can be very revealing, as are hand gestures and the hands themselves. Our fingers show how we move energy up from our unconscious and out into the world. Curves to the fingers or unusual postures are indicators of indirect or misdirected expression of that finger's energy.
When it comes to the thumb in particular, the greater the angle of opposition from the rest of the hand, the more one is able to direct one's will, spiritual or otherwise. The thumb also happens to be where I look to assess the condition of the uppermost three Chakras, the Throat, Third Eye, and Crown.
The Throat Chakra and the Third Eye, when looked at together tell me about how a person makes use of what they know. The Crown Chakra reveals how one contributes to the well-being of the Universe.
In the image above I have mapped the corresponding locations on the hand for all 7 Chakras on the left.
On the right is a close-up of Elon Musk's hand, showing his Throat, Third Eye, and Crown Chakras.
The protruding bone in Musk's Throat Chakra is an indicator of someone who can be very convincing. People with this trait can be successful in marketing or business. No surprise there.
His Third Eye Chakra is thick, revealing that he likes to put his knowledge on display. Again no surprise. Musk likes being seen as the smartest person in the room.
What really caught my eye is the position of Musk's Crown Chakra. He commonly tilts his upper thumb back towards his palm. You can see it in photo after photo in the montage below. He even tilted his thumb that way in his now infamous salute.
This isn't a common or even comfortable position for the Crown Chakra. Try it for yourself. I did. I couldn't get my thumb into that position without help from my other hand.
Not Knowing What He Doesn't Know
So what does it mean when the Crown changes direction from the Chakras below? At its most basic it's an indicator of difficulty following through on promises or ideas. It can also show a disparity between intentions and actions. And in terms of the Crown Chakra as the marker of one's dedication to service, the tilt is more likely to indicate one who is self-serving than someone selflessly working to make positive change in the world.
So what does Musk's thumb tilt say about the failure of Doge? While he may have convinced himself that his radical tactics for taming the deficit was his way of being in service, there was certainly a strong element of self-interest underlying his choices. Add to that his strong Throat Chakra and the know-it-all condition of his Third Eye and you get an inability to see past his own self-importance, prevented him from admitting his own limitations. Until he learns to direct his will and his upper thumb outwardly, and by that I mean away from ego, he will continue to be his own worst enemy.
