“The day that you discover the sanctuary of the Divine within you is the day that your life settles down forever and that you’re ready for the magic of the true adventure.”
John O’Donohue, Irish Poet & Philosopher
 

3RD Chakra Manipura (Solar Plexus) ~ FIRE ~ EMERALD GREEN ~ DESIRE

Balancing Your 3rd Chakra: The Manipura Chakra (Solar Plexus) is located just above your navel. From Sanskrit Manipura can be translated as “City of Jewels or Palace of Jewels.” Here prana has the power of fire and transformation. The idea of I is born and you see yourself flower as separate from other beings.  

This is your vital life force energy for empowerment and self esteem, and the throne of the Green Dragon of your personality and ego drive. Its nature is the strong emotional desire for power. Your personal power to direct your spirit for self mastery and individuation, and the ability to surrender your personal will to Divine Will for realizing your highest potential.

When your 3rd chakra is balanced you trust yourself and take full responsibility for your life. You feel a strong sense of self worth and positive self value.

A balanced and healthy 3rd chakra (Manipura - Solar Plexus) ensures your personal freedom and autonomy to direct your spirit to realize your highest potential. You are a creator of your reality and manifest easily all that you desire into the physical world.
