flow with emotions, open yourself to pleasure
After taking root with Muladhara, the energy moves. It begins to flow, like water. It's time to let emotions flow through you, rediscover pleasure, and embrace desire as a creative force. Svadhisthana, the second chakra, is the subtle center where the sensual movement of life is born.
When Svadhisthana is balanced, we experience joy, sensuality, and inspiration. When it's blocked, we feel empty, repressed, guilty, or clouded by unprocessed emotions.
What does Svadhisthana represent?
Location: below the navel, in the lower abdominal area
Color: orange
Element: Water
Function: emotions, creativity, sexuality, pleasure
Archetype: The Lover
Physical body: reproductive organs, kidneys, bladder, lymphatic system
Svadhisthana is our inner sea: it welcomes, nourishes, and transforms. Desires, fantasies, emotional bonds, and the ability to connect deeply with others and ourselves all move here. It is the seat of creativity and fertility in the broadest sense: giving shape to a work, an idea, a new version of ourselves.

Carnelian: awakens passion, dissolves emotional blocks, gives security
