The root chakra is the energy vortex that lies at the end of your spine. It is often represented in a red color, although the earthy tones of brown and black also deeply resonate with this chakra. The root chakra is the first of the seven major chakras. It is all about topics of basic survival, family and money needs being met.
Key issues of sexuality are also represented in this chakra. An imbalance in the root chakra can manifest as a feeling of ungroundedness, which can also affect your head area and make you feel dizzy, evoke a headache or be the cause of migraines. The root chakra may also be the reason for your feelings of instability and insecurity, especially when you have the sentiment that your basic needs are not being met. For example, moving from one job to another or moving house can cause the root chakra to close up and thus leaving you with a feeling of insecurity and being “in-between-chairs”.
