What is Solar Plexus Chakra

Ancient Hindu scriptures state that the Solar Plexus Chakra is located at the intersection of 72,000 chakras (energy tubes) near the stomach. This is why it is called the Abdominal Plexus or Umbilical Chakra. The solar plexus in the Vedas is called Manipura, which means city of jewels. Like the sun, the solar plexus chakra lights up 72,000 chakras with a yellow aura when it opens. This chakra represents physical healing, balance, courage, confidence, luck and creativity.

Location: Navel or Solar Plexus

Color: Yellow

Planet: Mars

Life Issues: Personal power, self-awareness

Glands: Pancreas

The Solar Plexus Chakra is all about personal power. Most of us develop this chakra between the ages of 15 and 21, when we feel proud, confident, mature or strong. But when the Solar Plexus Chakra closes, you lose confidence, courage, faith, hope and balance in your life, so using crystals that open this chakra can provide you with a constant flow of powerful personal strength.

Ways Crystals Work on the Solar Plexus Chakra

• Diet

Because the solar plexus chakra represents physical health, eating yellow foods can clear solar plexus chakra blockages from within. If you wrap a solar plexus chakra crystal circle around any food (cooked or uncooked), it will heal your navel chakra. Tomatoes, pumpkin, mango, etc. are good choices.

• Uses Solar Plexus Crystals

The solar plexus is the lower chakra. Therefore, wearing rings, bracelets, anklets and waist chains made of related crystals near the chakra will keep it active while wearing them. You can also wear solar plexus chakra jewelry on your dominant hand for guidance, preferably after charging it with sun, fire or inputting intentions before using it.

• Sound Healing

As the Fire element governs the Solar Plexus Chakra, its seed mantra is RAM, which in Hinduism is an incarnation of Vishnu, the god of protection. Therefore, chanting the solar plexus beej mantra while holding the crystal opens the energy centers of the solar plexus chakra. In this way, you can bring courage, hope and optimism into your life.

Like the sound healing in the beej mantra, you can chant healing vows to target different weaknesses in the solar plexus chakra. It will boost your energy, confidence, positivity, luck and motivation throughout the day. Here are some healing affirmations to activate the Solar Plexus Chakra:

I am strong

I attract luck

I have courage

I attract prosperity

I am healthy

• Sonic Healing

Healing sounds tuned to the resting frequency of the solar chakra work like light, fire and seed mantras by activating the celiac plexus chakra. Listen to 528 Hz songs, music or chanting sounds to frequency activate the solar chakra.

You can also obtain a chanting mantle tuned to the frequency of the solar plexus chakra and use it with the yellow chakra gemstone to purify the abdominal plexus.

• Yoga

Activating and balancing the solar plexus from the chakras through yoga poses can increase willpower and self-confidence. Warrior I Pose builds strength and self-confidence and opens the solar plexus from the chakras; Boat Pose activates the solar plexus from the chakras by strengthening the core muscles; Camel Pose deeply opens the abdominal area and balances the solar plexus from the chakras; Bow Pose stimulates the abdominal area and activates and balances the solar plexus from the chakras; and Overhead Touching Knee Forward Bend Pose helps to release tension in the solar plexus from the chakras.

• Aromatherapy

Specific herbs, essential oils, incense and incense sticks can activate the solar plexus chakra in aromatherapy.

All you need to do is apply sandalwood, myrrh, cedarwood or chamomile essential oils on the crystals before placing them on the abdomen to thoroughly cleanse the chakras.

• Meditation

Meditation is one of the best ways to recharge your chakras with crystals, especially for beginners. In a group or guided meditation session, you simply hold the solar plexus from chakra crystal in your hand. Here's a step-by-step guide to performing Solar Plexus Chakra Meditation at home:

Find a comfortable place to sit.

Hold the Solar Plexus Chakra crystal in the palm of your hand.

Close your eyes.

Visualize a yellow lotus flower with ten petals.

Concentrate until your intuition tells you to stand up.

Crystals for Solar Plexus Chakra

The Solar Plexus Chakra is associated with personal power, self-esteem and self-confidence. Activating and balancing this chakra can be accomplished through the use of specific crystals. Here are some crystals for the solar plexus chakra:

Citrine

Usage: Charge citrine jewelry for five minutes at sunrise before wearing it to work on the solar plexus chakra.

Topaz

Characteristics: Topaz stimulates, balances, heals and purifies your mind as it is one of the must-have gemstones for healing all lower body chakras. Wearing them as rings and bracelets is ideal for finding good luck, success and blessings in your life.

Usage: Resonating them with the healing sounds of the chanting bowl tuned to the frequency of the solar plexus chakra maximizes the power of topaz. Do this before wearing your Imperial Topaz jewelry for best results.

Tiger's Eye

Characteristics: If you are experiencing financial loss or debt, this may be due to a blockage in the solar plexus. In this case, wearing a tiger's eye stone bracelet can help you succeed.

Usage: Before wearing the bracelet, you can energize it by holding it and chanting the seed mantra RAM.

Golden Tourmaline

Characteristics: Golden Tourmaline clears and activates the Solar Plexus Chakra, bringing positive energy and confidence.

Usage: In addition to wearing Golden Tourmaline jewelry, you can also carry a Golden Tourmaline Palm Stone in your pocket for Solar Plexus Chakra healing. It is recommended to meditate with the crystal for five minutes while visualizing the Solar Plexus symbols before wearing or carrying the Golden Tourmaline. By doing this, one can better connect with the energy of the Golden Tourmaline to activate and balance the Solar Plexus Chakra.

Usage: In addition to wearing amber jewelry, you can carry an amber palm stone in your pocket for solar plexus from chakra healing. I recommend a five-minute meditation with the crystal while visualizing the solar plexus symbol before wearing or carrying the solar plexus slave chakra crystal.

Pyrite

Characteristics: although pyrite is known as fool's gold, it is no less powerful than gold. This is especially true if you set up a crystal grid in your home with a pyrite tumbler in the shape of the solar plexus chakra.

Usage: such a feng shui placement will bring prosperity, peace and good luck to your home. I like to place pyrite in the feng shui direction before lighting candles.

Honey Calcite

Characteristics: Honey Calcite is the stone of creativity, intuition and foundation as it is governed by the Third Eye and Root Chakras and the Solar Plexus. It transforms negativity in thought and action into positive and protective emotions.

Usage: Charge Honey Calcite with this daylight at dusk as the sun sets and the sun pours down like honey, just as it does inside the Honey Calcite crystals.
