The Voice Of Solar Plexus Chakra
Solar Plexus Chakra
Manipura Chakra, or Solar Plexus Chakra, is the third chakra located at the navel. It is symbolized by a yellow lotus with ten petals. Its element is fire, which radiates and transforms matter into energy, giving light and warmth. This chakra represents our "get up and go" attitude, actions, willpower, vitality, and sense of personal power. Its name, 'Manipura' means 'lustrous gem'. We can think of it as a glowing yellow sun radiating through the center of our body. On the physical plane, the third chakra rules metabolism, the process by which we turn food (matter) into energy and action. Examining your relationship to the properties of fire can give further clues to the nature of your third chakra.
Imbalanced Solar Plexus Chakra
When the Solar Plexus Chakra is imbalanced, it manifests as anger, aggression, or a sense of being a victim. You feel others have control over your destiny and you are always taken for granted. You do not act upon opportunities because of fears of failure. You fear taking risks and are unable to follow a disciplined life because of a lack of willpower.

When your Solar Plexus Chakra is balanced, you are full of energy, effectiveness, spontaneity, and power. You will take on a task and complete it and not be bound by perfectionism. You will radiate warmth and love to all and have confidence, self-respect, and self-power.
Overactive Solar Plexus Chakra
When your Solar Plexus Chakra is overactive, you are judgmental or critical and will always find fault in others. You strive for power, prestige, authority, and ambition. There is an insatiable desire to be in control of all situations, leading to sour relationships and personal frustrations.
Underactive Solar Plexus Chakra
When the Solar Plexus Chakra is underactive, you start feeling isolated and closed to new ideas. You fear rejection from people and become overly conscious about their opinion of you. You constantly seek the approval of others and become dependent on them physically, emotionally, mentally, or socially. It makes you serious, and you have no laughter or joy in anything you do.
