Earth Chakra：Grounds & Connects To Mother Gaia

The earth chakra has been ignored by many people for a long time. 

These days many of us rarely put bare feet onto the ground unlike our ancestors who often went barefoot.

Due to the way many people now live life, it's time to be aware of the importance of earth energy.

This chakra is predominantly related to making a connection to the earth, to ground your energy.

If you rarely make an earth connection, and you spend a lot of time using devices that bring unnatural energy into your body you may easily become ungrounded.

It is beneficial to regularly take excess energy down to earth, via the base chakra into the earth star chakra to be released to Mother Gaia. 

This may help to prevent a number of health issues caused by being ungrounded.

Where Is It? Earth Chakra Meanings

Earth Chakra Explained: 

The earth chakra is located approximately 12 to 18 inches below the soles of the feet.

Often called the earth star chakra, it is not within the actual physical body but is part of the etheric body.

This chakra aligns you with the magnetic core of the earth, and connects you with Mother Gaia which is valuable to ensure the maintenance of good health.

This chakras meaning is all about the idea of 'grounding', especially in a metaphysical way. 

The earth chakra meanings relate to the very foundation of your being, within everyday life. This area relates to your energy levels as this area is your anchor into physicality.

It is very important for everyone that this chakra is healthy, but it is especially valuable for spiritual people.

It is important that you regularly make the connection to the earth through your base or root chakra and on down to the earth star chakra to ground yourself.

This is where you connect your energy to Mother Gaia to resource and reground your body. As you reconnect to Mother Gaia's energy, you do two things.

You draw from the earth the vibration that enables you to become grounded, and discharge into the earth your excess energy.

Using either brown or black crystals or stones can be highly beneficial to assist you to ground yourself.

How Will The Energy Of The Earth Chakra Help You?

Do you know if you are ungrounded? 

One of the most powerful methods to use to ground you is to do a grounding meditation. You may choose to hold earth star chakra stones while you do this.

The earth chakra stones may also connect you to elemental beings who are in or around your home.

The earth star chakra is our connection to Mother Gaia.

It is important to feel love and gratitude to her, for all that she gives to you, that comes back to you in equal measures. 

Use spiritual grounding to connect yourself often with the earth, and you will feel happier and healthier.

Crystal Book Reviews

The books about crystals that are shown below are all very in-depth crystal reference books.

There are some authors of crystal books who have been in the crystal industry for many years.

Having one of their books on hand for reference purposes is beneficial.

Melody's Encyclopedia Love Is In The Earth, is a book that covers more than most.

This book gives you so much information, and covers so many crystals that on its own is almost a reference library.

Note I am talking about the large encyclopedia, not her smaller books of the same name.

The larger Love Is In The Earth book (965 pages) is fully illustrated with good pictures of the stones Melody writes about. 

The earlier book of the same name had a separate book with pictures in, so be careful when you look at these selling.
