Today I focus upon the second or sacral chakra. It is my understanding from what I’ve been reading that, the sacral chakra can extend from your belly button all the way down to the top of your pelvis. It’s signature color is orange, but it can be viewed as shades of blues, purples and golds depending on the person.
(Sacral Chakra Symbol)
The sacral chakra governs creativity, attraction, manifestation, passion, sex, personal identity and is where healers shine the brightest and draw their healing energy from. It’s element is water and it is associated with the moon. It presides over our cycles. All our cycles. We are mostly water and all our cycles require water balance.
This really makes sense to me because I’ve been working through emotional issues over the past couple years and it seems like every time I have a breakthrough, I notice a boost it my own creativity and manifesting. Emotions are also water based and would be associated with the sacral chakra.
It also seems, in retrospect, that the more I let go of what society expects and thinks… and let go of the programming I’ve lived under all my life…. and the more I really have discovered just who I am and what I’m all about… the better my relationship has been with Spirit and the more “in the flow” I feel. The more I strike out to be myself… and keep excitedly discovering new things about myself… the easier and faster I seem to bring manifestations into being.
So, yeah…. what I’m reading about the second chakra really does make a LOT of sense to me.
Last night, I did my root chakra meditation in bed. Today I was walking around outside in the sunshine and was suddenly struck by the urge to do these chakra meditations outside. I mean, barefoot and on the earth seems like the best way to balance your energies. I even read somewhere that just walking around barefoot can help keep a balanced root chakra balanced. You literally draw the energy from the earth up through your feet.
Anyway, my whole evening got away from me because I cooked a big dinner and trashed my kitchen so I didn’t get the chance to do my meditation outside. I’m going to do it in bed again tonight, but I think I’m going to do the third chakra outside sometime before noon tomorrow.
Have a great night :) See you on the upswing!
