TOO MUCH ORANGE

Too much Orange and we become self-centered, manipulative, and self-serving, disregarding the needs of others. Pride, and arrogance can push us out of balance.

NOT ENOUGH ORANGE

Too little Orange and we become frigid, distrustful, timid or shy, and overly sensitive. We lose our motivation, our self-esteem suffers, and we tend to isolate or become rebellious. We hide our emotions and are easily hurt. This can lead to becoming mistrustful of others, introverted, unable to show emotions, worrying about what others think, and even anti-social behavior.

The most effective way to add the power of Orange or correct a balance in the 2nd Chakra is thru adding natural orange crystals and gemstones to your everyday wardrobe, so they are close to you for several hours at a time and touching your skin, (the pulse points: ears, wrists, ankles, and neckline) and thus effecting your aura and Sacral Chakra.

For direct healing, the jewelry can be placed on the Sacral Chakra itself.
