Sacral Chakra

 
















TO FEEL

In Sanskrit, the sacral chakra is called Svadhisthana, which means sweetness.  

The seed of this chakra is located in the lower abdomen and includes the genitals, reproductive organs and hips.

The main focus of this centre is our emotions and sexuality, self gratification and the right to both want and to feel.  A heathy sacral chakra provides fluidity, feeling, pleasure, and healthy sexuality.



The element is WATER.

To be in harmony here we need to respect our emotions and embrace our sexuality as natural and beautiful.

The characteristics of excess in this chakra include poor boundaries, excessive emotionality, sex addiction, and obsessive attachments.

Deficiencies include frigidity, impotence, fearful of pleasure, rigidity, and emotional numbness.



The demon of the sacral chakra is GUILT.

The natural state of emotional and sexual energy is fluid.  Guilt represses the ability for this energy to flow and inhibits us from reaching out and connecting with others.

Spiritual challenges include finding it difficult to go with the flow, challenges in sexuality, sexual identity or sexual drive, reproductive issues, and not believing in one’s ability to create.
