Sacral Chakra is one of the 11 major chakras humans possess, located in the pubic area and characterized by red and orange hues.
The sacral chakra is responsible for human sexuality, creativity, and emotions, and is considered as one of the most powerful energy when in balance and well-functioning. In its open and active state, this chakra promotes creativity and sexuality. The human body transmutes part of the sexual energy into a higher form of energy which is used for creative, intelligent, and spiritual functions.
Even during their younger years, when people become impotent and are not sexually active, it is because their sacral chakra is depleted and are not receiving enough prana or life force energy that is necessary to keep the chakra open, balanced, and active.
You may experience a decline in your sexual desire if your sex chakra is clogged or blocked. A lot of people also suffer from lower urinary tract infections, sterility, enlarged prostate glands, and other sexual ailments that prevent them from engaging in sexual activities. When left untreated for a long period of time, the diseased energy can even slightly move up and cause lower back pain.
The chakra should neither be depleted nor overactive, it should be open and in balance. With an overactive sacral chakra, the urge to indulge in lower desires such as greed, lust, etc, can increase significantly. Everything should be done in moderation as anything in excess can cause discomfort in the body.
Some simple yet most effective ways to open and activate the Sacral chakra are listed below:
Pranic healing involves the process of cleansing and energizing affected chakras, pranic healers scan chakras to evaluate if the chakra is congested or depleted and accordingly use specific colors to disintegrate and replenish the chakra to restore optimal functioning. This is a no-touch no-drug healing therapy and can be availed distantly also.
Yoga and meditation can be very effective in balancing and aligning our chakras; the vibrations and frequencies of deep meditative states can bring about the right balance influencing and aligning our chakras.
Food intake can play a vital role in opening chakras, the sacral chakra can be activated by consuming healthy food such as nuts and seeds, fruits, green vegetables, and berries. Excessive smoking and alcohol consumption can further deteriorate the health of the chakras. It is recommended to have a vegetarian diet or avoid red meat as it can make the chakras congested.
Relaxation breathing exercises include deep rhythmic breathing directed at reducing tension and enhancing the flow of energy through the chakras. Exercises such as Pranayam and belly breathing helps to clear blocks in the sacral chakras and improve sensuality.
Crystals have unique healing powers that are beneficial to the mind, body, and soul. For physical and emotional benefits, they are believed to help promote good energy flow and eliminate negative energy from the body and mind. Some powerful stones such as Carnelian, Tiger’s Eye, Amber, Calcite, Sunstone, etc help to induce desire, passion, intimacy, and connection.
Energy centers, or chakras, are an important part of the energy body that control and energize the vital organs and impact psychological and physiological conditions in humans.
Sacral and root chakras are two separate chakras in the human body. The root chakra is also commonly known as the Mooladhara chakra located at the base of the spine and the sacral chakra is located behind the root chakra, at the pubic area. While the sacral chakra is responsible for sexuality the root chakra is responsible for survival. Blockages in the root chakra can affect the sacral chakra and vice versa.
The root chakra governs our physical energies, including our sense of safety and security. Balancing this chakra first is essential as it affects the other chakras energetically. Bringing balance to the root chakra creates a solid foundation for opening the chakras above.
The root chakra is made up of whatever brings you stability and comfort in life.
It also encompasses the basics such as food, water, shelter, safety, and security of your money in addition to the emotional needs such as letting go and being fearless. If these needs are met, your sense of security and safety is enhanced, and you are less likely to worry.
The purpose of a chakra is to spin and draw in energy so as to maintain a state of balance for spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical well-being.
In cases of excessive sacral chakra, the flow of Pranic energy is congested, causing the chakra to perform less effectively. When a chakra is overactive or bigger than than the actual functional size, it can be termed congested. The chakra doesn’t spin optimally and the diseased energy blocks the free flow of prana.
When practiced in moderation, sex is perfectly acceptable but when done excessively, it can be termed as lust. Likewise, when one works hard for a living it is for survival, but when done in an unethical manner, it is called greed.
People who earn money unethically or who are addicted to sex do not have the capacity to control their lower desires, instead, they have a hyperactive sex chakra. Crimes involving sex or money are typically committed by offenders whose sacral chakra is blocked or overly active.
It's not enough to balance one chakra, as an imbalance in a chakra can have a ripple effect, causing physical or physiological issues. It is highly recommended to have our chakras scanned by an expert Pranic healer, to be able to understand the state of our chakras and to eradicate any diseases that exist only on the energy body and are not yet manifested on the physical body.
