Your fight and flight response is initiated from this chakra. This is your primal, animal nature. <br /> <br />The energy of Muladhara allows us to harness courage, resourcefulness and the will to live during trying times. It connects us with spiritual energies of our ancestors, their challenges and their triumphs. <br /> <br />Sanskrit name: Muladhara - root support <br />Element: Earth <br />Color: Red <br />Shape: Square <br />Petals of the lotus: Four <br />Seed sound: LANG <br />Vowel sound: O <br />Rights: To have <br />Endocrine gland: Adrenal cortex <br />Physical association:The skeletal structure, teeth, large intestine, kidneys, blood <br />Psychological function: Survival and self preservation <br />Identity: Physical identity <br />Developmental stage: Womb to 12 months <br />Challenge: Fear <br />Plane: Physical plane <br />Planets: Saturn, Earth <br />Deity: Brahma, Dakini, Ganesha <br />Mythological Animal White elephant with seven trunks <br />Sense organ: Nose <br />Predominant sense: Smell <br />Incense: Cedar <br />Herb: Sage <br />Sephira: Malkuth <br />Tarot suite: Pentacles
