The Third Earth Chakra, the solar plexus, is known by the local aboriginals as Uluru. This amazing sandstone formation, a part of Kata Tjuta National Park, stands 348 m (1,142 ft) high (863 m/2,831 ft above sea level) with most of its bulk below the ground, and measures 9.4 km (5.8 mi) in circumference.

Uluru is often referred to as a monolith, and for many years it was even listed in record books as the world's largest monolith. However that description is inaccurate, as it is actually part of a much larger underground rock formation which includes Kata Tjuta (also known as The Olgas) and Mount.

The function of this chakra is assist with self definition and personal power, but also to keep the vitality of the Earth, and all living species. It is said in order to gain the knowledge of immortal health, one must do so through Uluru.

This knowledge is delivered to the rest of the world through the ley artery, the Rainbow Snake. It has great spiritual and cultural significance to the natives and tourists who are "In the know".

It is a sacred part of Aboriginal creation mythology, or "dreamtime" as in reality being the dream. Many Indigenous Australians also refer to the Creation time as "The Dreaming". The Dreamtime laid down the patterns of life for the Aboriginal people. The grooves on its sides are believed to be the tracks left by the Ancestors and various features of the mountain are sacred to specific spirits. These spirits can sometimes be communicated with when touching these features, however this should never be done by outsiders without approval of the natives.

According to Uluru dreamtime, the world was a featureless place until the ancestors of the Anangu emerged and travelled across the land, creating the features like Uluru that we see today. Ayers Rock represents the physical evidence of their time on the earth and is seen as one of their most dramatic and inspiring creations.
