Laima Ravillosa
The Lower Chakras
The Depth of the Root Chakra, and how it goes deep, not only down, but lengthwise, constituting all of our soil - todo nuestro suelo, dado que todo el suelo que pisamos, lo constituye;
black, as the soil of the Earth, and Lengthwise, supporting all the Others with its Width;
the Sacral or Womb Chakra, all the sex organs being bathed by the Aquatic Element of Sex, and Pleasure: The Liquids of Life - Blood, for Women, Sperm, for Men, coming from this area, it is very truthful to give this Chakra the Water Element. Pleasure is Moving. Life comes from Water (like the Matricial Waters of the Womb), and Water - also - comes from Life, in the sense of: all that you authorize yourself to feel - begins to constitute - your Ocean, the Ocean in which you swim. What gives you pleasure, in Life; what you make out of pleasure, constitutes your Ocean, and that Ocean, the ocean of the Deep Placer de Existir, the Ocean of the Deep, is where we live.
Hence the blue, sky blue, watery blue of the cushion that is here representing it.
Finally, the Fire Chakra, the Solar Plexus one, here represented by the Shamanic Drum, done with Goat Skin and Real, Woven Wood. The Power that emanates from it - Masculine, Fiery, and yet even dark: even capable of taking you to darkness: capable of taking you to another world.
The Solar Plexus Chakra represents your possibility of carrying out things. The power of your will when it ignites, not with psychology or with willpower (as workplace psychologists wants us to believe), but when it ignites with the Will that Something Happens, that is a Will that Transcends Yourself and that Comes From Another World. All like the Spirits one sees in a Shamanic Trance come from another world.
"La volonté ne favorise en rien une réussite heureuse": Psychological Will does not assure a good outcome.
But Ignition, Deep and True, Burning, in Your Belly, the WANT of doing something and then REALIZING you have the POWER TO DO IT, that, is Power. That is Power.
Eso es Poder.

And, the most ironic of it all, is that I arranged the physical, mandala representation of the chakras with this objects as they came sous ma main: it wasn't planned. Talking about what was I saying, about planning! - Planning Assures Nothing.
Just DOING, Does.
... So, I lifted the objects there were there, in my room, and started to constitute a line that would represent the chakras, along the spine - spine represented by the yoga mat, with its verticality and its reasonably wide but still not too wide width.
