Chakra #3 Manipura
Color: Yellow
Element: Fire
Feeling: sight
Desires: aspiration to understand
Task: to establish close relationship
This chakra is located in the
area of solar plexus. Its name is literally translated as "umbilical jewelry".
It brings person self-respect and satisfaction.
Manipura divides its influence between two spheres - sight and digestive
apparatus. Therefore it is no wonder that, when the person is happy, he sees
the world in a different light. In an equal measure chakra defines
sensitivity of the person, and on an emotional level it inspires feeling of
self-confidence, self-esteem and optimism. However, the unjust life can lead
to accumulation of aggression and negative emotions.
Excessive stimulation of Manipura leads the person to invest all of his
energy to work, to become choosy and over-exacting. In case of insufficient
energy in this chakra, the person loses self-confidence, becomes shy and
irresolute.
Gemstones corresponding to Manipura are: Citrine, Gold

Chakra #4 Anahata
Color: Green (secondary color is pink)
Element: Air
Feeling: sense of touch
Desires: to love and be loved
Task: to get self-confidence
This Chakra is located at the
level of heart, in the center of thorax. It is responsible for love, inner
harmony and the feeling of compassion; it also controls the sense of touch.
"Anahata" is translated as "invincible". On emotional level this chakra is
responsible for compassion, self-esteem and respectful attitude to other
people.
People experiencing dominating influence of Anahata are benevolent and
attentive to themselves, as well as to others. People with insufficient
Anahata’s energy are too sensitive, pitiful, and in their desire to please
others, can reach self-renunciation. Quite often they feel pity for
themselves and are at the mercy of various fears. In case of excessive
stimulation of this chakra people become choosy, whimsical, and imperious.
