Meaning of the Solar Plexus Chakra

The solar plexus chakra is a point just below the breastbone where one of the major energy centers of the body is active all the time. It’s a whirlwind of energy flowing through the body and out through the back, and when that energy is blocked and doesn’t flow properly, problems can result.

This central chakra is one that corresponds with the color yellow. It’s the chakra of power, freedom, independence, decisiveness, self-esteem, confidence and maturity. Someone with a clear, balanced solar plexus chakra will be able to make decisions, have enough confidence to live his or her life fully and will experience a satisfying sense of personal power.

Someone with a blocked chakra will display the opposite traits. Someone who has a hard time making decisions, feels weak and powerless, can’t make a stand, feels downtrodden by authority figures like parents or employers and who has self-esteem and self-image issues may benefit from chakra healing. The person may also have physical problems in this area with digestion, and the organs in that area of the body.

Another option is Shifting the Assemblage Point, which can make sure this major energy portal that’s very close to the solar plexus chakra is in the proper position and that the energy is flowing properly at the correct angle.
Both things can be done with crystals.

Assemblage Point shifting is typically done with a wand of clear quartz crystal, but a skilled practitioner may use a colored crystal that corresponds to the person’s problems. For straight chakra unblocking and balancing, a yellow stone to correspond with this chakra’s color is needed. Something like citrine is an excellent choice. It can be worn as a long pendant, carried in the pocket (somewhere close to the solar plexus is preferable, though) or the stone can simply be placed on the solar plexus and allowed to send vibrations into the body and the energy center.
