The Element of Water is seen as the essence of Life. Predominant Sense taste, the Tongue work organ is the genitals. The six petals represent connecting us to the sixth state of consciousness the colour of this Chakra is orange, its Vayu is also air, The plane is the astral plane ruling planet Mercury. The moon feminine. Located in the Hypogastric plexus, genitals. The Bija sound of Vang. The aspects of this chakra are procreation, family fantasy entering as the person begins to inter-relate with family and friends. The inspiration to create begins in this Chakra. So from the element of earth in the first Chakra we move into water in the second. Our planet is three quarters water and water is ruled by the moon. The moon is also related to women's menstrual cycles.
When in balance we feel secure and in harmony and being sensitive to others needs, that happiness is not necessarily linked to the material. Linked also with the arts and creativity. We can take charge of our lives and not be governed by negative emotions.
When out, the person may have an unhealthy attachment to possessions relationships, may experience roller coaster emotions, be a worrier, sexual energy is often out of balance. Health issues for this Chakra are bladder problems, lower back pain, sluggish lymphatics and in childbearing women Premenstrual tension.
Asanas to rectify are the forward bend, allowing I feel when I do it all the emotions to be released from the lower back easy and quick to do, I also feel the crocodile master pose as this chakra is ruled by water the crocodile an ancient animal that moves harmoniously through water is also a great one to do. The moon sequence which I find works so well in calming my emotions returning me to harmony. I have worked a great deal with creating harmony and balance within me and realise it is an ongoing joy to be on this plane at this time.
