3rd - Manipura (Solar Plexus) Chakra ~ FIRE ~ EMERALD GREEN

Focus your awareness at the Manipura (Solar Plexus) Chakra located just above your navel. From Sanskrit Manipura can be translated as City of Jewels.

See a Whirling Ball of Fiery Emerald Green light pulsing with energy in this center. Its color represents ego and desire, or the Green Dragon.

This is your vital life force energy for empowerment and self esteem. Its nature is the strong emotional desire for power.

A balanced and healthy Manipura Chakra ensures a strong Digestive System. Its energy imbues you with a sense of empowerment and self esteem.

Emotional stagnation or blockage at your Solar Plexus Chakra emits an energy frequency that resonates with struggle and frustration in fulfilling ones desires. Emotional issues of ambition and inhibition devour your present moment awareness and you suffer from rampant feelings of fear, guilt and doubt.
