The root chakra (first chakra) is a very important chakra for living on this earth.
The opening of the chakra depends on whether we live according to our animal instincts or not, and if it is not in line with our way of life, our hearts will be damaged and it will be difficult to live on this earth.
In this article, I would like to write about how to open and activate the first chakra if it is closed, and how to adjust it if it is too open.
Meaning of the first chakra, called the “root chakra.”
The first chakra is called the root chakra and is the root of birth of life.
It is also the chakra that we are aware of when we meditate in yoga and when we do the grounding energy work in the beginner’s seminar of the Hado-Kenkyu-Juku.
It is also a very important chakra for living rooted in the earth.
- The root chakra is open when you are instinctively ready to continue living without discontinuing your life and DNA.
- The root chakra is closed when you are not able to naturally circulate the life energy for living within yourself.
That is what it means.
Root chakra position and the feeling of touching the chakra
The root chakra is said to be position in the area between the genitals and the anus or tailbone.
In the Reiki seminar at the Hado-Kenkyu-Juku, we try to touch the energy of the root chakra with the palm of our hand, and the energy is spread over a wide area, slowly rotating and feeling warmer than other chakras.
What is the state in which the first chakra is closed?
Of course, the feel of the energy of the first chakra varies from person to person.
People with a weak root chakra have a narrower range of chakras and less warmth.
A closed chakra means that the input and output of energy necessary for life activity is not being properly achieved.
When this chakra is closed, somewhere on an unconscious level, the person may “not want to” or “cannot” do the output and input of energy necessary for life activity.
In order for the first chakra to be activated and open.
If somewhere on the unconscious level, such a state of being is present, the unconscious level will gradually change as the surface consciousness feels the joy of the root chakra being activated.
For example,
- Breathing, to exhale (output) and inhale (input).
- To use physical energy (output), we eat and drink to replenish our energy and hydration (input).
- To be active (output), we need to sleep to recharge our batteries (input).
- Spending money to live (output) and earning money to do so (input).
- Decluttering what is unnecessary (output), and then attracting what is necessary (input).
- Realize it (output), and then research the information needed to do so (input).
- To the extent possible, try to preserve one’s DNA (output) and seek the most suitable opposite sex for this (input).
It can be difficult to do all of these things, but when we feel joy in doing them for the sake of living, the root chakra is gradually activated and opened.
The root chakra opens because the unconscious level believes that it is necessary to input and output energy for vital activities.
The first chakra is too open.
Especially for those who are in a period of trying to leave behind a child at the cellular (unconscious) level, the energy state of the root chakra is very intense and widespread, and the temperature feels very hot.
However, too much of it is not good.
However, too much of it is not good, because it becomes excessive sexual desire.
If you have excessive sexual desire at the unconscious level, you will continue to be in a state of frustration because you cannot satisfy your desire.
Depending on the situation where the desire cannot be fulfilled, one’s heart may be hurt, and if this happens, the heart chakra will also become abnormal.
If the heart chakra is also involved, the person will feel that he or she has “made up for the missing part in his or her heart” by satisfying the desire, and will try to further fill the dry heart.
To align the first chakra that is too open.
As I wrote in the article on the heart chakra, it is more difficult to adjust a chakra that is too open than one that is closed.
If excessive desire has accumulated in the unconscious level, as described above
- Purify (or heal) the part of the unconscious level that is harboring excessive desire.
- Become aware on a daily basis that the minimum necessary output and input are sufficient to satisfy your needs.
This is the order in which we must deal with the situation.
Actually, ① is output and ② is input.
Purification (healing) in ① means “letting go of what we have been attached to” and clearing what is in the unconscious level, and in ②, by realizing “I used to think I was not satisfied, but in fact I have always been satisfied,” the surface consciousness becomes aware of a new concept (sense of light).
① and ② are conducted in the Intermediate Seminar.
Whether the root chakra is closed or too open depends on how you live.
It is said that “athletes are sexually active” to the extent that condoms are distributed in the athletes’ village at the Olympics.
And it is also said that polygamy was the norm for politicians in the Meiji period of old Japan and warlords in the Sengoku period of Japanese history.
Whether the root chakra is too open or too closed may depend on one’s way of life.
However, the worst thing that can happen is that the root chakra is too closed or too open, making it difficult to live.
If you have a belief in this way of life and it makes it easier to live on this earth, it may be best to have the root chakra in the right state for it.
