Red governs the Root or 1st chakra, situated at the base of the spine. It represents vitality, courage, relationship to the material world and stability. It is where the Kundalini energy resides. The Kundalini is symbolized by a coiled serpent that slowly makes its way up the spine towards the crown chakra, symbolizing the unlimited and unmanifested potential. “Red Root” is the expression of the ‘essence’ of the color RED in particular its association with this chakra. It speaks of the manifestation of the spirit into matter and of the passion, physical intensity and energy that this evokes. ‘Red Root’ connects us to our roots into Mother Earth. Red is an energy that vibrates earthiness, animal essence and physical passion.
