Part 4/7:
Integral to understanding the naval chakra is its representation through ancient symbols, particularly in Sanskrit. This chakra, described as an ominous lotus, carries the weight of thundercloud colors—dark and electric. At its heart lies the womb, a generator of energy, representing the essence of life and the transformative power within.
The accompanying symbols—the swastika, the syllable “rung,” and the ram—each signify different aspects of this energy. The swastika conveys movement, violence, and transformation, while the ram, as the vehicle of Agni—the fire god—underscores notions of sacrifice, rebirth, and the continuous cycle of energy that propels life forward.
