Transmuting Past Trauma: Healing the Solar Plexus with Amber, Selenite, and Reiki
The combination of crystals and Reiki can be extremely effective while on your healing journey. Bringing in the elements of crystals along with the energy of Reiki, allows us to work from a high vibrational space when seeking a holistic form of supporting our own healing. Our traumas and experiences respond well to Reiki on an energetic level, allowing us to release and most importantly-process them.
When emotional wounds and past traumas become “stuck,” they frequently settle in the solar plexus chakra (Manipura), the energetic center of personal power, self-worth, and emotional digestion. A blocked solar plexus can manifest as chronic anxiety, low self-esteem, worry, guilt, or a persistent feeling of being frozen by past experiences.
The solar plexus allows us to process many of our emotions and when it is left without any support, it may hold on and store these experiences. This does not allow an optimal flow of energy. The chakra still does what it is supposed to do on an energetic level but the amount of energy flowing there may be a lot less than it needs. This creates a slower or heavier energetic signature.
One of the ways we are focusing on clearing and healing the solar plexus is with crystals and this month we will be working with both amber and selenite. By combining the warm, dense transmutation energies of Amber with the high-vibrational, clearing properties of Selenite, you can create a powerful energetic catalyst to release these deep-seated blockages and reclaim your sovereignty. This is exactly what we are focusing on with this month’s special at With Love Reiki & Healing.
Though often classified as a gemstone, Amber is actually fossilized tree resin—an organic material infused with millions of years of Earth energy and solar vitality. This unique origin makes it an exceptional tool for deep emotional healing.
• Transmuting Density into Light: Amber acts like a metaphysical vacuum cleaner for the solar plexus. It absorbs dense, negative, and stagnant energies from past traumas and gently transmutes them into positive, usable vitality.
• Healing Old Wounds: Because of its warm, nurturing energy, Amber goes straight to the root of old emotional wounds. It provides a comforting, protective shield, allowing you to revisit and process painful memories without absorbing fresh distress.
• Restoring Personal Sovereignty: By clearing the debris of old conditioning, Amber helps rebuild your sense of self-worth and personal power, reigniting the solar fire within you.
Amber is a powerful tool for helping clear, restore, and heal the solar plexus. It helps to bring energies of renewal, vitality, and confidence. This aspect helps to support you in stepping fully into your personal power and not shrinking yourself to make other people comfortable. Working with the ancient energies of amber supports the solar plexus by soothing anxiety, guilt, stress, and constant worry that may be affecting you. In the June special, we will be working with amber in the form of orgonite(which adds yet another level of healing).
Selenite: The Cleaner
While Amber works directly on the dense, localized trauma within the chakra, Selenite acts as the ultimate energetic solvent and bridge to higher consciousness.
• Breaking Up Stagnant Blocks: Selenite carries a rapidly moving, high-frequency vibration. It acts like a laser, slicing through the calcified energetic cords of past trauma and encouraging stuck emotions to finally flow.
• Saturating the Auric Field with Light: Selenite channels pure white light into the energetic body. When applied to a clearing ritual, it ensures that as Amber draws out the darkness, the resulting void is immediately filled with peace, clarity, and divine protection. July offers us the opportunity to work on healing the solar plexus and many of the experiences held there.
By clearing layers of emotions out, we are able to bring ourselves into a place on our healing journey where we can allow our energy to flow better and perhaps even heal other issues within us.

If you would like to focus on your solar plexus, here are a few things that you may like to try:
A Simple Integration Ritual
To work with these stones together for solar plexus healing, try this focused meditation:
1. Preparation: Find a quiet space to lie down comfortably. Place a piece of Selenite just above your head to anchor high-vibrational light into your energetic column.
2. Placement: Place a piece of Amber directly onto your solar plexus (the area right above your navel, below the ribcage).
3. Visualization: Close your eyes and take deep, belly breaths. Visualize the Selenite sending a clearing stream of liquid white light down through your crown, washing over your torso, and loosening any rigid, dark patches of old trauma.
4. Transmutation: Imagine the Amber absorbing these loosened, heavy energies. Feel its golden, honey-like warmth melting away the cold, stuck imprints of the past, converting them into a radiant, glowing golden fire of self-confidence and peace.
5. Closing: Practice this for 11 to 20 minutes. Afterward, cleanse your Amber (via smoke or sound) to clear the absorbed energies, and thank both stones for their support.
Visualization Meditation:
1.Close your eyes.
2. Take deep belly breaths in and out (feel the belly and diaphragm move).
3. Place your hands over your solar plexus and picture a warm yellow/golden light in the area.
4. Visualize the shape of a honey comb with lots of little nooks and crannies. Within each one of these cells there may be a discoloration or a knowing that something needs to shift. However you see it is perfect. The goal is to clear all of the cells within the honey comb as it reflects clearing out emotional wounds you have been unable to process and still carry.
5. Imagine a golden or white light “cleaning” each cell out. Continue with this visualization process until you feel it is enough.
6. Allow yourself a few more moments in a calm space of awareness and thank yourself (or any guides/angels/spiritual team that you called in). Remind yourself that you are full of unconditional love. You may choose to chant or say “I am Love”. Or any positive statements you feel appropriate.
7. Take a deep clearing breath and exhale fully and deeply.
