HEALING CRYSTALS: GARNET/ HEMATITE SYMBOL: MULADHARA - Composed of a 4 petaled lotus flower, often stylized as a circle with 4 petals and a downward-pointing triangle. The downward-pointing triangle is a symbol of spirit connecting with matter, grounding on the earth & our earthly existence in our bodies. It is seen as the center of our vital life force and is the seat where the kundalini stays coiled, dormant until it wakes up to distribute its energy through all of the other chakras. (GEM CARD INCLUDED WITH PURCHASE) Chakra 1 - Muladhara - The root chakra provides the foundation on which we build our life. It supports us in growing and feeling safe exploring all aspects of life. It is related to our feeling of safety, security & survival. The root chakra is where we ground ourselves onto the earth and anchor our energy into the physical world.
