The Root chakra is about being physically there and feeling at home in situations. If it is open, you feel grounded, stable and secure. You don’t unnecessarily distrust people. You feel present in the here and now and connected to your physical body. You feel you have sufficient territory.
If you tend to be fearful or nervous, your Root Chakra is probably underactive. You may easily feel unwelcome or uncomfortable with others. If this chakra is overactive, you may be very materialistic and greedy. You also might be obsessed with being secure and resisting change.
