SOLAR PLEXUS CHAKRA (Manipura)

The Solar Plexus Chakra is the third chakra in the body’s energy system. In Sanskrit, it is called Manipura, which is often translated as “city of jewels” or “lustrous gem.”

It is located in the upper abdomen, just above the navel, and is connected to your sense of personal power, confidence, identity, and will.

Think of it like this:

The Solar Plexus Chakra is the part of your energy that asks: • Do I trust myself? • Am I allowed to take up space? • Can I make decisions and stand by them? • Do I believe in my ability to create my life?

The Solar Plexus Chakra is your energetic center of power and direction: the place where your inner fire turns intention into action.

It governs: your sense of self your confidence and self-worth your ability to take action and follow through your personal boundaries your relationship with control, discipline, and choice

If the Sacral Chakra says: “I am safe to feel and experience life” The Solar Plexus Chakra says: “I trust myself to act, choose, and create my path.
