SVADISTHANA- Sacral chakra

From the rootedness of the first chakra we make our way to the second chakra. Here we experience movement, feelings, sexuality, sensuality, playfulness and creativity. When we awaken to our senses, we feel more alive and stimulated. We are drawn towards pleasure. Think of the things you love... often they have to do with how they make you feel. You feel happy, free and open. You are curious and energized.
When we take in healthy pleasures, we are satiated and content.

"You are what your deep driving desire is. As your desire is, so is your will. As your will is, so is your deed. As your deed is, so is your destiny. -Upanishad IV .4.5

Guilt is the demon of the 2nd chakra because it curtails the free flow of movement.
Water is the element of this chakra.
