THE SOLAR PLEXUS CHAKRA

ITS PLACE AND MEANING

From the Sanskrit, MANIPURA, the solar plexus chakra is associated with being just behind the solar plexus or naval. Originally those who practiced tantric yoga and worked with the solar plexus chakra would have visualized a subtle, spinning, metaphysical bright yellow, ten-leafed lotus flower

When working with the solar plexus chakra, you should remember that the practice is primarily one of visualization and the purpose is to bring you closer to the divine: for the kundalini, the energy of creation, to rise up through all of the chakras until it meets the divine

To facilitate visualization and activation of the solar plexus chakra, it has been associated with colors, elements, organs, crystals, archangels, positive human values and foods. These connections should be recognized as channels that we can use to help us release the energy and to bring us closer to our connection with the divine

It is common to associate the color yellow and the element of fire with the solar plexus chakra

The mantra, RAM being the seed-mantra of the fire element is usually used when invoking the solar plexus chakra. However, there is no reason to only use the energies of RAM. Should you feel too negatively heated, frustrated or fail to visualize the kundalini rising-up through the solar plexus chakra, there is every reason to work with the seed-mantra for the other elements, earth (LAM), water (VAM), wind (YAM) and space (HAM)
