The
Solar Plexus Chakra is the 3rd chakra of the 7 major chakra system,
and is
usually depicted with 10 petals. The
dominant colour frequency is Yellow.
Focusing
on this mandala will balance the frequency of the Solar Plexus chakra,
opening up the power of the will, and our ability to act with inegrity. |

The Sanskrit
term for the Solar Plexus chakra, Manipura, means "jewel of
the navel".
It is actually located above the navel and is associated with the
digestive system and the liver The Solar Plexus is our inner sun,
radiating warmth, and fire. The Solar Plexus is the seat of the
individual will, and is where the ego-self sits, colied and ready
for action.

We act on our feelings
with this chakra, it regulates and expresses our actions based upon our
feelings and beliefs about ourselves and others. In our global society,
based upon materialism, desire and greed, this chakra is often over-stimulated.
When this happens we become very judgemental, paranoid, and resentful.
If this chakra
is underactive we can become very insecure and will feel powerless,and
unable to create changes in our life.
A balanced Solar
Plexus causes us to have self-respect and tolerance for others, makes
us easy-going and relaxed, and self-confident.
