Third Eye Chakra + Solar Plexus Chakra Connection

This month we’re focusing on these two chakras and how they work together to create more abundance. Pisces season is all about dreaming and manifesting your desires, it’s a very intuitive sign connected to the energy of the Third Eye, which is all about intuition. Our Solar Plexus is all about our confidence and igniting our inner fire, which is why it goes perfectly for Aries season. Both of these chakras also relate to our Ego, aka our identity and who we believe we are/portray to others. The goal isn’t to stop our ego, it’s about befriending it. It’s about becoming aware of our subconscious thoughts and programming that controls our ego and tries to protect us. Our Solar Plexus and Third Eye both are connected to our ego.

So, how do we balance them? Let’s dive into rituals for each.

SOLAR PLEXUS CHAKRA

Our Solar Plexus is our 3rd chakra located in our gut, right above our belly button. It is associated with the color yellow and the element of fire. A blocked Solar Plexus occurs when there is stagnant energy. It can either be excess (aka overactive) or deficient (aka underactive). You are allowing your subconscious thoughts and limiting beliefs to create negative outcomes without even realizing it.

Here are some signs your Solar Plexus is blocked:

• You may feel low self-worth and low confidence, which in turn creates inaction or lack of motivation.

• Underactive: you may feel that you are not good enough or worthy of what you desire.

• Overactive: you may feel that you are too self-absorbed, therefore allow your ego to drive your actions.

• Physically you may feel low energy and have digestive issues.

How to balance your Solar Plexus:

1. Meditate – Connect with your inner fire

   • Sit in a comfortable position and take deep belly breaths

   • Begin to focus on your Solar Plexus and visualize the color yellow glowing in your body

   • Repeat the mantra Ram. This helps to balance this chakra.

2. Move – Movement allows you to clear any stale energy and release it.

   • You can move through spinal twist pose, cardio, or anything to create heat in your body.

3. Clear – Clearing out negative energy, allows more flow throughout your bodies and chakras.

   • You can do breath of fire, listen to solar plexus chakra clearing healing Hz.

   • Work with the element of fire and burn Sage to cleanse your space.

4. Nourish – Nourishing your energy and your gut will allow this chakra to feel aligned.

   • Drink beverages at room temperature

   • Eating yellow foods for your sacral chakra, get in the sunshine, and allow it to feed your soul.

   • Using affirmations, “I am worthy”, “I stand in my power”, “I am confident”.

THIRD EYE CHAKRA

Our Third Eye is our 6th chakra located between our brows. It is associated with the color Indigo and the element of thought. A blocked Third Eye occurs when there is stagnant energy. It can either be excess (aka overactive) or deficient (aka underactive). Your ego disconnects you from your spiritual experience and intuition.

Here are some signs your Third Eye is blocked:

• You may feel disconnected from your purpose and have a hard time trusting your intuition

• You may feel isolated from others or have a hard time understanding others’ perspectives.

• You may be unnecessarily judgmental of others.

• You may have trouble sleeping as your Third Eye is connected to your Pineal Gland.

• Physically you may have headaches or be sensitive to light.

How to balance your Third Eye:

1. Meditate – Connect with your higher self

   • Visualize indigo at your Third Eye (in between brows) and repeat the mantra, Om.

   • Tap on your Third Eye to open it.

2. Movement allows you to clear any stale energy and release it.

   • You can do Child’s Pose with your forehead touching the ground.

   • Try Alternate Nostril Breathing to bring balance to your right/left hemisphere of your brain

3. Clear – Clearing out negative energy, allows more flow throughout your bodies and chakras.

   • Listen to Third Eye Chakra clearing healing Hz.

   • Work with the element of light by getting in the sun or using light therapy.

4. Nourish – Nourishing your Third Eye with purple foods, and brain-boosting ingredients.

   • Using affirmations, “I am open to receiving and giving love”, “I trust my intuition,” “I am connected to the universe,” “I have clarity and know my purpose.”

Let’s not forget that Pisces is the end of the zodiac signs. It’s a time for completion and ending. How can you shed what no longer serves you from winter and be reborn this spring?
