What is the sacral chakra?
The sacral chakra, or Svadhishthana, is the second chakra according to the Hindu chakra system which is made up of seven energy centres, known as chakras.
It is located below the navel and around the genital area, and is represented by a golden orange six petal lotus flower.
The sacral chakra is associated with the emotional body, sensuality and creativity and has the function of allowing us to freely and openly feel pleasure.
It has a large influence on our feelings, our sex life and our creative expression, so it is certainly a part of ourselves that we want to keep in balance!
What are the symptoms of a sacral chakra blockage?
When our sacral chakra is in balance we should be able to allow our emotions to come and go without attachment, have healthy relationships and experience general excitement and joy in our lives.
But if your sacral chakra becomes blocked, often as a result of fear, you might experience symptoms in these domains that affect the quality of your life.
More specifically, a blocked sacral chakra can manifest in two ways – either underactive and overactive. Whether you have an underactive or overactive sacral chakra will affect what kind of “symptoms” you experience from a blockage or imbalance.
You might also find that your sacral chakra has a tendency to go back and forth between underactive and overactive as it is struggling to find a healthy balance.
