Motor center - a source of energy. When it connects to the Throat, things can be put into action directly.

Awareness center - where perception forms: understanding, intuition or feeling. Its awareness does not push to act; it illuminates.

When Defined

When the Solar Plexus is defined, you experience life through an emotional wave - a continuous cycle of emotional highs and lows. This wave is biochemical and operates on its own rhythm, regardless of external circumstances. You have a powerful emotional depth and sensitivity that colors everything you experience. Because of this wave, there is never truth in the moment for you when it comes to decisions. You must ride through the wave and wait for emotional clarity before committing. Your emotions are not a problem to solve - they are the richness of your human experience.

When Open

When the Solar Plexus is undefined, you absorb and amplify the emotions of others. You can feel other people's emotions intensely - sometimes even more intensely than they do. This makes you deeply empathic but also vulnerable to emotional conditioning. You may avoid confrontation and truth to keep the emotional peace. The wisdom is learning to distinguish your own emotions from those you've absorbed, and not making decisions based on amplified emotional energy that isn't yours.
