The Swadisthan Chakra, also known as the Sacral Chakra, is an important part of our spiritual anatomy. The svadhisthana chakra is associated with the element of fire.
Location:
The Sacral Chakra is located in the aortic plexus above the sacrum bone, It is right above the kundalini which resides in sacrum bone as shown in the image in triangular shape. Sacral chakra have six petals. This chakra is the center of our creativity and inspiration and controls the functioning of your liver, kidney, spleen, pancreas, and female reproductive organs. Vibrations of this chakra can be felt in the thumbs of both hands. When the chakra is active, it gives tingling at the point of the thumb or sometimes you can experience throbbing at that point. Right channel of the energy also known as PINGLA NADI is directly connected to the sacral chakra. Pingla Nadi is associated with the sun energy and it crosses to the left channel (IDA NADI) at the point of Agnya chakra.
Qualities of Sacra chakra:
The Swadisthan chakra is represented by the color yellow and is aligned with the purifying element of fire. It is associated with creativity, appreciation of beauty, inspiration, idea generation, undistracted attention, keen intellectual perception, pure knowledge and spiritual knowledge. These qualities are fundamental to our ability to tap into the limitless creativity and knowledge within us.
The most important physiological function of the Swadisthan chakra is to break down fat particles in the abdomen to replace the brain matter lost due to excessive thinking. When this chakra is balanced, it prevents excessive thinking and provides a peaceful mind free from worries, doubts, confusion and distraction.
However, when the right side of the Swadisthan chakra becomes exhausted by too much thought, it can result in a loss of creativity, spontaneity and joy. You may also experience insomnia and irritability. Other symptoms of an unbalanced Swadisthan include illnesses such as diabetes, blood-related cancers, allergies and heart disease. Liver, which is the seat of attention, also has to work harder to produce fat cells to meet the body's demand. This can lead to a loss of focus and pure thought.
Attention is a quality of the Swadisthan chakra, which allows for close observation or listening without any thoughts running through your mind. To sustain and nourish your ability to be attentive, it is essential to maintain a balanced liver. By filtering out impurities, distractions, and external clutter, a balanced liver promotes peace and stillness, which is crucial for effective meditation.
So, how can we balance and awaken the Sacral Chakra?
Eat the right kind of food which will not cause excessive heat in the body.
Try to balance the heat in the body by soaking your legs in the cold water before sleep.
Apply ice pack on your liver, if it is overactive.
Meditate daily as it brings thought process down and helps all the chakra to sustain their energy, including sacral chakra.
Reflection on the Sacral Chakra
Swadhisthana Chakra, a wheel of creation,
A place of fluidity, inspiration, and imagination.
It is the seat of our emotions, where they flow,
A river of feelings that ebb and glow.
With the color of the moon, it shines so bright,
Illuminating our desires, guiding us through the night.
It's the source of our desires, our hopes, and dreams,
And the birthplace of creativity, it seems.
But when blocked, it can cause inner turmoil,
And lead to addiction, guilt, and a restless soul.
So heed its call, and awaken its power,
And harness its energy, in each and every hour
Embrace its fluidity, let your emotions run free,
Find balance and peace, in what you feel and see.
Swadhisthana Chakra, the center of pleasure,
A wellspring of joy, that you can always treasure.
