When I was younger, I picked up this book at the library but put it back because of its outdated design cover. I recently saw it again at a bookstore, and decided to buy it, and I do not regret it at all! This book was exactly what I was looking for on the chakras-- it's not too textbook-like, and it's written from a humble, intuitive perspective. I just wish that it were longer! Out of all the chakra books I have read, this one by far has taught me the most on energy, vibrations, auras, etc.

Wheels of Light begins with an introduction to the "mysteries" of the chakras. It reveals the touching story of the Rainbow Warrior who healed and prophesied because he could see the rainbow beyond the rainbow. Color, vibration, and auras are explained in detail. Several chapters unfold the secrets of the chakras in beautiful detail.

I purchased this book many years ago when I first started my healing journey. I just read it again recently. Of course everyone takes away something different from information, however, I feel this book is better for someone that has been studying healing for awhile. I gained much more the second time reading it, because I now have a more fundamental understanding of chakras, initiations, frequencies, cellular interactions etc.

For the intermediate or advanced healer/student this book contains huge information. Barbara Brennan, herself, states, "Rosalyn Bruyere has been one of the most important teachers of hands-on healing in the world for many years." Information included: How to avoid displacing chakras, chakra interaction, electromagnetic radiation and its spectrum, healing bones, cancer, aids, alot of detailed in depth information on chakras (especially the first) and kundalini. There is much to be gained from the history lessons. Parts of this book are written multi-dimensionally. There can be no doubt Ms. Bruyere is a master healer.

I first read "Wheels of Light" over 20 years ago. I have not read another book on the subject of Chakras or Energy Medicine that compares. It is well researched, simple to understand without being simplistic and weaves layers and levels of understanding together flawlessly. I reread it often and I never fail to learn something new. I offer you, and "Wheels" my highest recommendation and Rev. Bruyere my deepest thanks.

I have always (14 years) made this book a requirement for my apprentices in the 12-month Reiki Master class I teach. Rosalyn's exploration of how different civilizations perceive reality has many points of clarity for us, especially now, with so much on-the-edge tension in the world. This is a well-done overview of the chakra system with detailed discussions of #1 and #2; my only regret is that she went on the road and never wrote more books about the other 5 chakras in more detail. Much more readable and do-able than Anodea Judith's book Wheels of Life (although it is a GREAT resource!).

I have read this book numerous times and I learn new things every time. If you're looking for a more peaceful life and intrigued by the power of natural healing. Other great books that I would recommend are; Hands of Light & Creative Visualization. Read with an open mind and enjoy!

Rosalyn Bruyere's book Wheels of Light is, in my humble opinion, the most insightful book ever written on the chakra system.

I have owned Wheels of Light for about 20 years and never cease to be amazed at how much new information I pick up when I reread the book (about once every 5 years). I have independently verified many of the book's details about the chakra system in my own energy healing practice over the years. Wheels of Light has been a fantastic resource when I or my patients have questions.

I believe Wheels of Light will remain a classic for many centuries to come and recommend it highly.

Rev. Rosalyn L. Bruyere has produced a masterful work on the chakra system that ties in all of the ancient mystery systems that help feed our understanding of these subtle energy bodies. Her book, "Wheels of Light," is considered to be an essential foundational reference text for many different schools of energy healing. Rev. Bruyere is acknowledged to have served as a teacher to Barbara Brennan and the founder of the Healing Touch movement, and her influence throughout the world of energy healing is held in the highest regard as a result. Those who find the material in her book resonates with them would be well-served to try and study in-person with this amazing healer and teacher. It is remarkable that she continues to pass on to students first-hand her vast and deep trove of knowledge -- a rare opportunity that someone this accomplished continues to teach her own classes directly. This book led me to study with Rev. Bruyere and directed me on a path that has been life-altering. Even after many years of study I continue to turn to her book and find new wisdom in it each time I pick it up.

I have read this book numerous times,, and each time it has given me more insight to energy healing and chakras. Rosalyn Bruyere is one of the most energetically vibrant teachers of our time on energy healing, she exudes the energy of her work! I find that she conveyed as graciously as possible in written form something that is at most truly experiential: ENERGY! As an artist painter I know that you can write all you want about an art,,, its the experience of doing it that makes it real. This book brings that realness and it does exactly what it was intended for you to do.... to go on a search for energy, for healing, for spirituality

I have left a review before, however as I proceeded my reading, I found I need to give additional comments on this book. Originally I was looking for a book which gives detailed and profound knowledge about chakras, auras in order to have a foundation on my path to spiritual enlightment, the first half of book does perfect job on offering insights with chakras and auras, nevertheless, the second half completely dives into the root/first chakra...

As we all know that the person whose soul sits on heart chakra or higher is spiritually enlighted, one has to take care of soul first in order to reach harmony among soul, mind and body, if we focus on having our body fixed first, it is temporary, the problem will come back again and again...
