The Root Chakra and the Earth

The Root Chakra and the Earth


January 11, 2013


When the first chakra is disconnected from the feminine Earth, we can feel orphaned and motherless. The masculine principle predominates, and we look for security from material things.  Individuality prevails over relationship, and selfish drives triumph over family, social and global responsibility. The more separated we become from the Earth, the more hostile we become to the feminine.  We disown our passion, our creativity, and our sexuality. Eventually the Earth itself becomes a baneful place. I remember being told by a medicine woman in the Amazon, “Do you know why they are really cutting down the rain forest? Because it is wet and dark and tangled and feminine.

~ Alberto Villoldo

With the New Moon in earth sign Capricorn it is a good time to start a new practice in working with your root chakra. Patchouli is a great choice of oil or herb to work with for the earth element and root chakra during this New Moon.




Capricorn: 11 to 23 January

Around the Galaxy in 28 days: Day 21: Elephant Sky - pleasure versus pain.



Every Day has its own energy. We can use this energy to our advantage and / or to warn us against taking certain actions. For example, today is good for taking responsibility and doing the right thing.  A good time for introspection. Take action towards bettering your life and making money. Today can either be sensual and lustful or present problems with sexual organs, for example period pain.  The warnings today are against acting impulsive and being distracted by jealousy. Vibrate love to attract good things into your life. 
I aim to live magically, and invite you to join me on my journey as I explore and explain these energies so that we can move with the rhythm of nature for our ultimate benefit and gain. In my quest I track the daily movement and energy of the moon and the planets that influence earth. I put pictures of the moon's path and what it symbolises for all to follow and enjoy.
