Natal chart and first chakra
Positions of natal planets are facts, unchangeable like the color of your skin. First chakra is about bones, family and place of birth representing material personal level. All of this should be root support, similar to the first chakra. However, this is often not the case.
Without support of others for a long period of time, we become unstable. We lose our integrity and do not know who we are or what we want from life. Everything that does not know who and what it is, will not be able to maintain itself or manage to “survive”. There is high probability that it will “play a role” from someone else’s natal chart, which is energetically stronger and more penetrating.
In that case, natal chart seems to be “stuck”. We slipped into vibration of fear and began to collect as many material things as possible to feel safe.
Energy
Natal chart also absorbs energy of space in which we live or we spend a lot of time. Natal chart absorbs energy of important people with whom we form relationships. This can have both positive and negative effects.
Family has huge energetic influence on us and it can be like a very dark cloud that stretches around us and creates a “shield”. This is noticeable when family members’ natal planets form squares with your trine planets. Then everything that should reach us is rejected. At the same time we spend a lot of energy on maintaining this “complex and useless system”.
When we were children, a lot of things were decided for us and we could not choose. On the other hand, we associate period of childhood with free expression of emotions. Children say what they feel, without analyzing consequences, but over time learn that this should not be done. However, if there was trauma or abuse during childhood, the first chakra has stored huge amount of fear and insecurity within itself.
Self love
Feeling unworthy of love can also stem from childhood, especially if we were not cared for in a way that made us emotionally secure. In that case, belief was formed in us that we can hardly survive and that we do not deserve to meet our needs.
Every natal chart strives for self-preservation. As long as we learn lesson of our incarnation, we carry out that self-preservation in very “twisted” and “distorted” ways. This eventually becomes our dominant archetype.
First chakra imbalancd includes excess weight, chronic problems with bones, immunity and degeneration. If at this level energy is not balanced and does not flow freely, it becomes impossible for us to ensure existence in material sense.
Thoughts and speech
The way we think, what we say, feel and do greatly affects the extent to which it is possible to heal ourselves and get rid of what we don’t need.
Those beliefs that have survived for a long time or more people believe in them will be stronger. In that case, we ourselves will not have a “chance”. We will start adapting to majority in order to survive if the first chakra does not have “its own strength”.
But your family has been like that for decades and you can’t change it?! In that case, consider whether their values bring you abundance, joy and happiness. If not, then you need to replace those inherited beliefs with those more appropriate for you. That’s why we first start from the family past and what we inherited or “picked up” somewhere along the way.
Large part of beliefs that hold us back are those that we have never checked to see if they fit us. We simply “took them over from our parents” and started applying them, unconsciously, like those we grew up with did.
Energy pattern
It is important to become aware of your thoughts, as they carry energy patterns. In particular, beliefs from first seven years of life, if we have experienced crisis or emotional loss, will appear as old energy in all transits. Inner child is something we keep for our whole life and will be accentuated again in transits of Saturn every seven years. This will happem frrom a different angle, to finally resolve fear during the first or second Saturn return.
Everything we (don’t) have in our life now is a consequence of our mindset. Those beliefs led to materialization. Beliefs can be seen as foundation for entire life experience.
The roots hold the tree so it can branch out and captivate with its beauty. If the root is weak, the tree will not survive. Whatever we do, we need to have a stable foundation for it. This is especially important in partnerships.
Balance
Maintaining balance is always easier when ground is solid. It is easier when we are sure that someone will catch us if we fall, if we are trained and concentrated and we believe we can. However, if all that is not present, we search for that stability in partners, work, bad habits, food, material things. We desire everything that is outside of us and therefore out of control.
For example, if we believe since childhood that we have no right to earn a lot of money, planets will form such reality through our beliefs. “Badly placed” Mars or Venus will not have much to do with it, but will “deliver as ordered”.
That is why everyone influences each planet in their natal chart through their beliefs as much as it influences them. As everything in Cosmos is connected, it is consciousness that gives possibility for change. This means that it is important to understand that our beliefs lead to us actually getting something in life in form of energy and matter.
Attitudes and beliefs
Individual can spoil his natal chart with attitudes and beliefs, as well as improve it. For each planet or area it rules, it is important to determine beliefs we have. We should assess whether these beliefs lead us to safety or additional problems and life crises. Then we can work on the first chakra with energy exercises.
We can do this through Saturn which is a part of our physical identity. This planets collects all inherited attitudes about ourselves that are part of us and stem from genetics and DNA. This limits us by keeping us in the comfort zone or completely without support. Mars should be empowered through yoga or pilates and physical exercises where memories are “extracted” and released from muscles.
I can help you match planets with early childhood beliefs. We can write down positive affirmations for each belief that is negative, too.
Condition assessment
Think about any similarities you have with your father, mother and other family members. Concentrate on the good and the bad. Don’t think too much about it. If you hesitate about something, you need to think it through. It is that part of natal chart shadow that is important to overcome.
List all beliefs and rate how intensely they affect you. There will surely be a critical belief. If we want to have more love and pleasure, which is what the second chakra is about, we must first be centered in ourselves. Working on first chakra impacts the second and that is exactly what is achieved with healthy beliefs. With regression to past lives we can also change those beliefs that do not serve us.
Instant solution for the first chakra can be pressing the soft part between the thumb and forefinger. This will encourage sense of grounding in body and increase stability.
