Moving Through Emotions to Clear & Connect the Solar

From an emotional and spiritual perspective, this energy center is linked to the issue of personal power. We think of personal power as having some control over one's life. This includes how people view themselves in relation to others 'such as employers, spouses, friends, and family. The inner feeling of powerlessness and a sense of a lack of control in one's life directly affects the energy flow through the Solar Plexus. It is also the seat of anger, aggression, and other emotions. If you do not learn how to move through these emotions with self-compassion and mindfulness, you are setting yourself up for the manifestation of angry dis-eases. As the function Of Oshun is rooted in the animal spirit, it is directly in control of physical phenomena, especially the influences of instincts, emotions, and sensuous energies. These emotions are often connected to an individual's sense of personal power and the issues of how much control they have over their lives. Needless to say, this causes stress to manifest in the form of energy blockages in this center. Its physical counterpart is the pancreas.

This gland secretes pancreatic juice, the enzymes of which help with the digestion of proteins, carbohydrates and fats. This center also governs the stomach, liver, gall bladder, spleen, adrenal glands, lumbar vertebrae, and the digestive system. The orisha Oshun supplies nutritive subtl energy to all of the major organs involved indigestion and purification. In the majority of people, it is found to be "over-stimulated", resulting in nervous disorders, stomach, gall bladder and liver diseases. Dysfunction of Oshun is one of the most often causes of cancer. Certain reactions between this center and the heart orisha causes congestion of the solar-plexus center. This has a profound effect upon the bloodstream and brings about a proliferation of tissue, creating growths and tumors of a malignant nature.
