The Muladhara is the centre of the physical consciousness, but the legs below represent the special field governed by it – as distinct from the mental and vital parts in the body. So when there is working there, it means a working in the physical proper itself. Of course the physical is half-subconscient, but the field of the subconscient proper is below the feet, just as the field of the superconscient is above the head.
