Harmonious functioning of the Solar Plexus chakra:
The Solar Plexus chakra is our inner flame. If there is a lot of fire, we look at life with courage, we are not afraid of the risk or challenge, we accept changes and adapt to them easily. Harmonious working of this chakra guarantees emotional balance and relatively stable emotional well-being. We act without the fear of rejection and criticism. We can create our own unique identity without the need of the group approval. If Manipura is open it leads to sense of peace, inner harmony, the harmony with life and the social status. It also allows us to respect the feelings and individuality of others.

Disharmonious functioning of the solar plexus chakra:
The symptom of disharmonious functioning of the third chakra is excessive need of influence and control over the internal and external world. The desire to concur, control and to rule appears. The lack of self-esteem and peace is accompanied by dissatisfaction. The difficulties with achieving inner peace and self-control may appear. A person’s aim becomes pursuit towards wealth and recognition, which cannot give permanent satisfaction. A person may develop the needs of dominance and possessiveness and experience the feelings of jealousy, lack of emotional control, and provoking others to argue. When this chakra functions are disharmonized, people need constant change, they  desire the difficult experiences to test, compare, and raise their own self-esteem. These desires are often met in the environment of power, politics and business.

Hypo-function:
The symptom of hypo function of the Solar Plexus chakra is the lack of self-esteem. People are unable to take risks and do something new, they fear change; they are stuck in the old, familiar thought patterns and toxic relationships. The faded flame of the third chakra causes the fear of loneliness, which leads to involvement in the addictive relationship. A person feels that he or she cannot influence the course of things and everything is predetermined, and as a result the sense of hopelessness and giving up appears. One sees obstructions everywhere. The new experiences are afflicted by the fear, which leads to the negative thoughts of oneself (such as “I`m not strong enough for challenge“, “There`s no point trying, I`ll lose“, “I`m hopeless“ etc.) and consequential blockage of those experiences.
