Solar Plexus Chakra Stones | Top 7 Manipura Crystals

Solar Plexus Chakra (Manipura) is the third chakra from the bottom, located in the stomach area, a couple of inches above the navel.

Yellow chakra radiates through the center of your body and rules all aspects of your personal power. It is the center of your identity and some of the main functions of solar plexus chakra are:

• Willpower
• Strength
• Transformation
• Determination
• Self-Esteem
• Ego

Healthy solar plexus chakra vibrates to the color of yellow, with fire as its dominant element. Most of the gemstones and crystals, which resonate with the frequency of the third chakra are also yellow.

The yellow color is associated with the energy of fire, which can break down other elements. Yellow is often being used in chromotherapy as a stimulating color for patients with eating disorders and anorexia, to activate their metabolism.

Solar plexus chakra governs your digestion and metabolism, so if you experience any problems with your metabolism, bring more yellow crystals and gemstones into your life!
