Stones for the 2nd chakra: how to choose them

Energy treatments are delicate. It all starts from the personal or intuitive resonance existing between the symptom, the chakra associated with the problem you wish to treat and the stones which act on the respective chakra. Each chakra is linked to one or more stones. Thus each stone must balance or magnify each energy center on which we work. Discover the different stones for the 2nd chakra and its balance.

Stones for the 2nd chakra

To balance it, there is a group of stones for the 2nd chakra. A central orange stone, carnelian, combined with other stones will ensure a good energy balance for Svadhisthana. Furthermore, we advise you to work this Chakra if you have previously aligned the Root Chakra.

Indeed, the Chakras resonate in a whole. For this reason, balance is only achieved if all of your energies are flowing through all of your Chakras.

In this case, stones for the 2nd chakra include citrine, carnelian, orange calcite. The moon stone better known as moonstone is very useful in combination with carnelian and shungite.

Meaning of the sacred chakra

Above all, the sacred chakra, called Svadhisthana in Sanskrit, is the second of the seven energy centers present inside your body. It is located on the stomach, 5 cm below the navel and radiates forward.

In Kundalini Yoga, the Svadhisthana represents a lotus with 6 petals of orange color influencing:

• Your emotions, relation with others, sharing, pleasures, and desires;
• Sexuality, procreation, vitality, and joy of living;
• Self-esteem and relationship to money.

With this in mind, the sacred chakra is the gateway to the Kundalini energy; it corresponds to the beginning of the human being’s development, thanks to these tastes. Furthermore, it is a source of vitality, not only for the etheric or energetic body (second of the seven subtle bodies), but also for the emotional body (third subtle body).

Also, this energy center is linked to the fluids in your body that transmit life: circulation, reproduction, sexuality and elimination.
