All our beliefs about what attracts us to others or what repells us from them emanate from the energy circulated by this chakra. When we can rise above our judgements based upon our beliefs, we have balanced this chakra. People with this balance will show a sensitivity to the needs of others without becoming too attached to them. They will be able to relate to others with warmth and appropriately.

The Sacral chakra is the 2nd chakra in the 7 major chakra system. This chakric form is usually depicted with 6 petals and its colour frequency is Orange. Focusing on this mandala will balance the frequency of the Sacral chakra, opening up our creative power, and our ability to relate and feel connected to others and the earth.

The Sanskrit term for the Sacral chakra, "Svadistana", means "dwelling of the vital force". It is where the Kundalini, the vital life-force of the body, lies colied, ready to flow up through the higher chakras when they are open and working harmoniously together. This is the energy centre that gives the etheric body its power.

It is connected to the female reproductive organs, and relates to sexual power, and creative energy; the energy that can create and control the human form emanates from this energy centre. It works in close harmony with the Throat chakra; the throat seeks to express creativity, to utilise the creative power that is generated by the Sacral chakra. The colours orange and blue are complementary on the colour wheel, and we can look at the complementary colour relationships with the rest of the chakras, too.

If this chakra becomes overactive, sexual energy can go into overdrive, and people will express their sexuality inappropriately. They can be manipulative and aggressive, with predatory instincts.

An underactive Sacral chakra can cause the person to become oversensitive, emotionally dramatic, sexually repressed, and overwhelmed by shame and guilt.
