The Womb

The first chakra relates to the formation of the physical body and takes place during prenatal development and infancy.  The growth of the body is main focus of the life force, and the infant's developmental tasks, learning how to operate the body and deal with the physical world occupy the bulk of consciousness throughout the time in the womb and throughout the first year.  There's little awareness of the outside world, and the baby lives in a fused symbiosis with the mother.
The physical and emotional state of the mother during the time the developing fetus is in her womb is vitally important for the child -- everything passes between them.

My daughter-in-law found this stone on the beach when she was pregnant with her, and my son's, daughter.

When the baby's needs are properly met, it anchors the spirit into the physical body and the child feels welcomed into the world.  Erik Erikson, in his eight stages of psychosocial development, defines the struggle of this age as one trust vs mistrust.  This stage builds the foundation of security and groundedness that enables self-preservation and forms the physical identity.
