The 6 Best Solar Plexus Chakra Stones and Crystals

January 29, 2021 Laura Konst

The Solar Plexus is one of the 9 energy centres in your body that controls the inner workings of your being and can influence your behaviour and emotions. This is the third energy centre and is located in the upper abdomen where your diaphragm ends and meets the stomach.

The Solar Plexus Chakra is your centre of power, self-esteem and discipline.

In Sanskrit, it is known as "Manipura" which translates to "city of jewels". This is such a beautiful name that encapsulates how your Solar Plexus is a bringer of light and radiates brightly with fiery tones of gold and yellow. It is represented by a downward-pointing triangle within a lotus flower with ten petals.

This Chakra is your source of raw and powerful warrior-energy and governs your self-esteem and inner strength. A balanced Solar Plexus Chakra can allow you to achieve independence and break free of limiting beliefs, as you set forward to achieve your goals.

Our sense of self or ego is closely tied to this Chakra and can help us be in tune with our inner dialogue and manifest the life we want to lead.

When looking for healing crystals and Chakra stones to unblock your Solar Plexus, look for yellow, coppery and golden tones that have a strong connection to this energy centre.

At Tali & Loz we are true believers of the Chakras and we curated crystal sets which we believe help to guide specific energy through the Chakras. Our ‘Detox Chakra set’, will introduce crystal vibrations that will help you with detoxing and protect you from negative energy around you.

Why work on your Solar Plexus Chakra?

Working on your Solar Plexus Chakra gives you the clarity and inner strength to honour yourself and those around you.

You will be operating from a place of peace and be confident in your ability to overcome challenges and achieve your goals. Things that may have seemed impossible are now manageable and your "gut" feeling is strong. In addition, since you are more in tune with your physical and spiritual side, you are able to listen more closely and practice with honourable intention.

The way you see and perceive the world may also begin to shift and you are open to suggestions and new pathways of approaching things in your everyday life.

In relationships, whether between family or romantic, you can speak your truth without fear of judgment but also be respectful and considerate of others at the same time.

What does a blocked Solar Plexus Chakra feel like?

A blocked Solar Plexus Chakra brings with it low self-esteem and lack of direction. Life seems to be passing by and you are unable to manage conflicting emotions and situations seem uncontrollable.

Helplessness and sense of failure are also common symptoms of a blocked Solar Plexus Chakra. While you struggle to manifest what you want, the negative energies lead to rash decisions. This inability to make up your mind about what you want, makes you seem irresponsible and careless.

Immobilized by fear and with no direction, it becomes harder to stay open to feedback. Every emotion is reactive and harsh, and you may feel overly defensive or confrontational around others or experience jealousy and possessiveness in your relationships.

Some common physical and emotional symptoms with a blocked Solar Plexus Chakra

Low self-esteem
Lack of direction
Helplessness
Irresponsible
Ability to be present is reduced
Judgment is hard to take
Not open to feedback
Paralyzed by fear
Not able to make decisions
