But maybe not...

On this Chakra webpage...they describe different directions for the Southern Hemisphere...
>> Chakras can be opened by a variety of methods. One method is via the use of a wand type crystal, rotated in a counter-clockwise direction [in the Northern Hemisphere]. Research in Africa has supported the opening of chakras [in the Southern Hemisphere] via rotation of the wand type crystal in a clockwise direction. Closure of the chakra can be accomplished via the opposite manipulation. <<

Both India and the US are in the Northern Hemisphere...so maybe the book was not modified for the Southern Hemisphere...
