The Psychology of Money and your Sacral Chakra

The Psychology of Money and your Sacral Chakra

In the world of energetic healing, money isn’t just a number in your bank account. It’s energy. Flow. Permission. And perhaps most intriguingly, it’s intimately connected to your sacral chakra, the energetic centre of creativity, sensuality, and emotional expression.

When this chakra is out of balance, we may find ourselves in cycles of scarcity, shame, or inconsistent income, even when we’re doing all the right things.

But when is it aligned? The sacral chakra becomes a portal to abundance.
Not just financial, but also emotional, sensual, and spiritual wealth.

What is the Sacral Chakra?
The sacral chakra, or Svadhisthana, is the second of the seven main energy centres in the body. Located just below the navel, this chakra governs:

• Emotions and pleasure
• Creativity and sexual energy
• Boundaries and desires
• Your relationship with receiving

The element associated with the sacral chakra is water — fluid, flowing, adaptable.
And money, too, is meant to flow. It’s not something to hoard or chase, but to circulate consciously.

In both energetic and spiritual traditions, the womb space is recognised as a sacred seat of power. In the chakra system, this space is governed by the rahm, the centre of creation, desire, and emotional flow. In Islam, the Arabic word "Rahm" (رَحِم) — meaning womb, shares the same root as Rahma (mercy), revealing the womb as not only a physical space, but a sacred portal of compassion, creativity, and life-giving presence. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ taught that Allah named the womb after His own names, Ar-Rahman and Ar-Raheem to honour its sanctity. When we tend to our sacral chakra, we awaken not just sensual or creative power, but the original mercy woven into our feminine being.

In this remembrance lies the key to sacred abundance. When we soften into the space of Rahm, when we honour our emotions, express our desires, and make space for joy, we come into harmony with the sacred flow of provision as Allah has promised that he provides for us in ways we will never imagine (Qur'an 65:3). 

In Sufi tradition, the practice of dhikr (divine remembrance) is a pathway to alignment, clearing the heart of contraction so the soul can receive. And what is abundance, if not the gentle art of receiving? Just as the womb does not chase, but draws in and nurtures what is meant for it, we too are invited to become vessels of receptivity. Through breath, dhikr, and embodied presence, we return to a state of inner Rahma where divine generosity flows not from striving, but from stillness, surrender, and sacred connection.

When your womb space is open and balanced, you’ll often feel:

• More connected to your desires and pleasure
Comfortable expressing your needs
• Inspired by your business or creative projects
• Aligned with receiving clients, compliments, or cash

So… How Does This Relate to Money?

Let’s break it down:

Receiving Money is Sensual
Receiving income is deeply feminine. But many of us are subconsciously closed off to it, feeling guilt when we charge, shame when we spend, or discomfort when people give. That’s sacral energy being blocked.


Creative Energy = Currency
Your ideas, your art, your offers — they all come from your sacral centre. When this space is nourished, ideas flow easily, and you stop second-guessing yourself. You become magnetic to aligned clients and opportunities.

Your Pleasure Sets the Frequency
If you’ve been forcing, overworking, or hustling to prove your worth, chances are, you’re out of alignment.
True wealth often flows when you’re in your joy, doing what feels good and trusting the process. That’s sacral.

Emotional Resilience Builds Financial Confidence
The sacral chakra governs emotions. When you’re emotionally grounded, you make clearer financial decisions, hold your values with more ease, and navigate scarcity triggers without spiralling.


Signs Your Sacral Chakra Might Be Affecting Your Finances:
• Difficulty charging what you’re worth
• Underpricing your offers out of guilt
• Income rollercoasters or feast-famine cycles
• Struggle to feel inspired or creative
• Overspending as a form of emotional release
• Avoiding money altogether due to overwhelm

Sacral chakra healing is something I consistently work on with my clients. Whether it's through hypnotherapy or EFT, we extract the trauma that has been stored (often for generations) and break the cycle that stops women from receiving love, money and other forms of abundance in their lives. Think of these blocks as parasites: they eat up the nutrients in your body, which keeps you stuck, no matter how many extra vitamins you take. Once you cleanse your body, you can absorb all the goodness. Once you cleanse your energetic system by reprogramming your subconscious, the activations listed below will provide even more support.

Ways to Activate Your Sacral Chakra for Abundance:
• Water rituals — baths, ocean dips, dhikr in water
• Dance and movement — hips, belly, sensual flows
• Creative play — painting, singing, crafting, without a goal
• Womb healing — breathwork, visualisation, yoni steams
• Sacral mantras — try: “I am worthy of receiving with ease.”
• Sacred remembrance — dhikr, istighfar and dua
• Pleasure practice — reconnecting to joy, sensuality, and emotional expression

The energy of money transcends your bank account -- it lives inside your body. In your relationship with pleasure. In how open you are to receive, to feel, to be seen.

When we tend to our sacral chakra, we begin to understand that money is not separate from our feminine essence; it is a mirror of it.

Nurture your sacral space, and watch as abundance begins to ripple through your life effortlessly.
