Location
“Located at the navel [1] or just above at the solar plexus, the Solar Plexus Chakra 3 is called Manipura, the “City of Jewels” (Mani – gem, Pura or Puri – city). Frequently associated with the color yellow, blue in classical tantra,[2] and red in the Nath tradition, this chakra is associated with fire and the power of transformation. It is said to govern digestion and metabolism as the home of agni and the vital wind samana vayu. It is also the point where the energies of prana vayu and apana vayu (inward and outward flowing energy) meet in a balanced system. It is notably the home of coeliac plexus which innervates most of the digestive system. In chakra based medicine this area is worked with to affect healthier digestion, elimination, pancreas kidney and adrenal function. Weak agni (fire) here leads to incompletely digested food, thoughts and emotions and is a source of ama (toxicity).
Appearance
Solar Plexus Chakra 3- Manipura is represented with a downward pointing red triangle, signifying the tattva of fire, within a bright yellow circle, with 10 dark-blue or black petals like heavily laden rain clouds. The fire region is represented by the god Vahni, who is shining red, has four arms, holds a rosary and a spear, and is making the gestures of granting boons and dispelling fear. He is seated on a ram, the animal that represents this chakra.
Petals
The ten petals are dark-blue or black, like heavily laden rainclouds, with the syllables ḍaṁ, ḍhaṁ, ṇaṁ, taṁ, thaṁ, daṁ, dhaṁ, naṁ, paṁ, and phaṁ upon them in a dark-blue colour. They correspond to the vrittis of spiritual ignorance, thirst, jealousy, treachery, shame, fear, disgust, delusion, foolishness and sadness.
Function
Manipura is considered the center of dynamism, energy, will power and achievement (Itcha shakti), which radiates prana throughout the entire human body. It is associated with the power of fire and digestion, as well as with the sense of sight and the action of movement. Manipura is “the center of etheric-psychic intuition: a vague or non-specific, sensual sense of knowing; a vague sense of size, shape, and intent of being.”[3] As such, some psychics recommend “listening” to it since it may help in making better decisions in one’s life on many different levels.
Through meditating on Manipura one is said to attain the siddhis power to create (save) or destroy the world.”wiki
