Welcome to the World of the Solar Plexus Chakra...
The Third of Seven Primary Chakra Centers in our Subtle Energy System
The Solar Plexus comes into activation between the second and third year of life. This energy center has as its foundation, the strengths and weaknesses of the first two chakras, those contributing to our sense of belonging on this Earth and our emotional connection in relationships. In the Solar Plexus, the energy is focused on Mastery of Self, which prepares us for ascension into the spiritual realms as its higher vibrations opens connection with our Heart Chakra!
The Solar Plexus Chakra, located above the navel, in the very center of our body, is key to the development of our personal Will and Power. This in turn, engages our ego in the development of our right to take action and the inherent responsibilities that go along with decision-making and choice. When the energy flow is open and balanced, we develop a sense of empowerment, but when restricted or blocked, we fall into the powerlessness of codependency, of feeling like a victim in our lives, or to the pseudo-power of entitlement.
The color that resonates with the Solar Plexus chakra is yellow and the element that activates its energy is Fire. With its powerful alchemical nature, the fire element opens for us, the seemingly magical process of transformation and creation! As well, it stimulates the digestive fires that help us transform food into energy.
The Sanskrit name for the Solar Plexus is Manipura, which means City of Jewels, and the symbol is a lotus flower with ten petals. Each of the ten petals represents a lower frequency vice or characteristic that, through the process of transformation, reveals the virtues or the “city of jewels” within the dimensional Self.
The energy of the Solar Plexus harmonizes with
- the vibration of the musical key of “E”
- the frequency of 320 Hz.
- the seed sound of Ram
- the vowel sound of “Oh”.
These are important tools for you to use when trying to clear blocks and restore balance and harmony to this vital chakra!
We will continue to explore the various aspects of the Solar Plexus Chakra this month via daily Facebook posts, future blogs (posted here), a free online meditation, and our monthly in house Group Meditation and Chakra Workshop.
Light up your solar plexus! Take some new form of empowering action following the guide of your inner desires. Ignite the spark of transformation!
Blessings on your Journey!
