CRYSTALS FOR THE SOLAR PLEXUS CHAKRA

Solar Plexus Chakra Meaning

Solar Plexus Chakra (Manipura in Sanskrit) is the third chakra. Its element is fire. It is located just above our navel, between the Sacral and Heart Chakra.

Solar Plexus Chakra Purpose

Solar Plexus Chakra is where our vitality, life force energy, sense of self-esteem and personal power is concentrated. If our Solar Plexus Chakra is activated and balanced, we feel empowered, motivated and optimistic about life.

The main purpose of the Solar Plexus Chakra is to teach us to respect and value ourselves, make choices that serve our highest good and take calculated risks when the timing is right.

Solar Plexus Chakra is the key to unlocking the flow of abundance into our lives. Abundance in all forms can only find its way to us once we have activated and healed our Solar Plexus Chakra. When we have an activated Solar Plexus Chakra we naturally attract great opportunities, helpful people, positivity and joy as well as financial prosperity and career success.

If the energy is flowing freely through this chakra, we will be able to manifest our dreams and goals. We feel confident and brave to take risks, grab new opportunities and improve our lives.

What color is the Solar Plexus Chakra

Solar Plexus Chakra is associated with the color yellow. Yellow symbolizes the sun, which is the source of energy for all life. The same way, Solar Plexus Chakra is the central point of our body, where our vitality and life force energy is concentrated.

Solar Plexus Chakra Healing

Solar Plexus Chakra can easily become blocked, since this is the area where all our emotions are “digested”. Too much negativity, sudden outbursts of anger or severe emotional trauma and intense fear can all cause an imbalance in this chakra.

An imbalanced Solar Plexus Chakra can become either overactive or passive. Those with an overactive Solar Plexus Chakra have a tendency for violence and aggression, abuse of power, egoistic attitude, overly materialistic thinking, greed and desire for power.

People with a passive Solar Plexus Chakra, on the other hand, lack any motivation to improve their lives, they are generally afraid of any kind of change and taking initiative. They often lack self-confidence, are full of self-doubt and and overly critical towards themselves. They tend to feel rejected and have an overall negative attitude towards life.

One of the best ways to heal an imbalanced or blocked Solar Plexus Chakra is through humor and especially deep belly laughter. This gives a powerful energy boost to our navel area, where the Solar Plexus Chakra is located.

Another great way to heal the Solar Plexus Chakra is by setting yourself new goals and challenges and striving towards fulfilling them. This will also energize the Solar Plexus Chakra, since this chakra is closely connected to our self-confidence and willpower. We gain more confidence by seeing that we can achieve anything we set our minds to.

Eating spicy food and practicing martial arts or Qigong can also help to heal a passive Solar Plexus Chakra.
