Sacral Chakra – Where it is and what it relates to

Sacral Chakra Symbol

Chakras exist on all levels of the human energy field, some as connections between the levels. If functioning well they act as anchors between these levels.
Light energy and love is always trying to get through the vortices.
When we get inspiration this is energy moving.
We should not let emotions, feelings within get suppressed. We should process these feelings and by feeling them, understand and let go.Common problems are the chakras’ being blocked, excessive (over active) and deficient (under active).
Energy Healing can balance your chakras by channelling colour, light and love to them and restructuring if necessary.

Each chakra has a different psychological aspect I will cover the Sacral (pronounced Say-Krull)(Svadhisthana) chakra located in the lower abdomen, sacral plexus here:-

The sacral chakra spins faster than the root chakra, the colour is therefore orange. It is related to your physical pleasures, sex, drink, food, addictions, and your body. Your negative thoughts and fears about your body will unbalance or block this chakra
