Understanding Chakras
The Solar Plexus Chakra, or Manipura, is one of the seven main chakras in the body that influence our physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. When our chakras flow harmoniously, we experience balance and vitality; when they are blocked, we may face disharmony and challenges in life.
Solar Plexus Chakra | The Meaning and Significance
Located above the navel and below the rib cage, the Solar Plexus Chakra is associated with the colour yellow and the element of Fire. It is the centre of personal power, confidence, and self-determination, governing our ability to take action, assert boundaries, and express our authentic selves. This chakra serves as the bridge between our desires and our ability to manifest them into reality. When balanced, it fuels our inner fire, empowering us to move forward with clarity and strength.
A well-functioning Solar Plexus Chakra allows us to:
- Trust ourselves and our decisions
- Stand in our power without fear or hesitation
- Take inspired action toward our goals
- Maintain healthy boundaries in relationships
- Experience inner peace even in challenging situations
Signs of a Blocked Solar Plexus Chakra
When we have energy blocks or stagnant energy in the Solar Plexus Chakra, it affects how we perceive ourselves and the world. Specifically, these energy blocks can develop from past traumas, societal conditioning, limiting beliefs, or unresolved ancestral patterns passed down through generations.
Physical Symptoms of a Blocked Solar Plexus Chakra
Since the Solar Plexus Chakra governs the digestive system and metabolism, physical imbalances often manifest in:
- Digestive issues (bloating, indigestion, ulcers)
- Chronic fatigue or lack of motivation
- Adrenal imbalances and stress-related symptoms
- Muscle tension in the abdomen and lower back
Emotional & Mental Symptoms of a Blocked Solar Plexus Chakra
On an emotional level, a blocked Solar Plexus Chakra can lead to:
- Low self-esteem, lack of confidence or self-doubt
- Tendency to seek validation from others
- Fear of rejection or failure
- Overwhelm and procrastination
- A tendency to be overly passive / aggressive or either powerless / controlling
- Feeling unworthy of success or happiness
- Feeling stuck or unable to move forward
Spiritual & Energetic Symptoms of a Blocked Solar Plexus Chakra
Beyond the physical and emotional, a misaligned Solar Plexus Chakra can disrupt your spiritual connection. Symptoms include:
- A lack of direction or purpose in life
- Feeling disconnected from your personal power
- Struggling to manifest your desires
- Recurring ancestral patterns of power struggles
In this blog post, I share a detailed chakra reading I conducted for a client, giving you insight into the types of chakra blockages we can uncover.
Healing & Balancing the Solar Plexus Chakra
A balanced Solar Plexus Chakra is essential for living with confidence, purpose, and emotional stability. When this energy centre is blocked or weakened, it can lead to self-doubt, indecision, frustration, and a loss of motivation. Aligning and strengthening the Solar Plexus Chakra restores your inner fire, helping you take decisive action, maintain healthy boundaries, and live authentically.
Whether through energy healing sessions, spiritual practices, or everyday lifestyle adjustments, consciously working with the Solar Plexus Chakra can spark transformation in both your inner and outer world. From vibrational therapies to core-empowering exercises, there are many powerful ways to clear blockages and restore harmony to this vital centre of personal power.
