Chakra Knowledge - Base/Root Chakra

This post will be short and sweet.

We're covering the base chakra today. When people refer to the base chakra, they call it the first chakra, even though Earth Star is below it. Some people call it the root chakra.

The base chakra starts at the end of your tailbone. Its associated color is red, so you'll see a lot of red stones associated with it. This chakra covers basic human instincts: independence, security, and a sense of power. People who have problems with their root chakra may be impulsive, angry, and impatient.

Some stones associated with the base chakra are bloodstone, obsidian, black tourmaline, red jasper, andalusite,carnelian, citrine, hematite, ruby, and rhodonite.
