OPENING YOUR HEART

OPENING YOUR HEARTBy Julia GriffinOpening our hearts to life is one of the most fulfilling tasks that we can undertake. When the heart chakra opens, we begin to weigh our actions from the heart. The heart is like a plumb line; it tells us when we are centered and when we are not. The Egyptians believed that the soul resided in the heart. The Goddess Ma'at, for whom this magazine is named, weighed the human heart of the dead to see if the soul had earned paradise in the afterlife.Our culture is permeated with messages of "listening to your heart" and "knowing in your heart". It is in the space of the heart that our true desires reside. The joy of the connection with the "One" or the "All" is felt in the heart. We find true compassion in the heart, not in the mind.Tibetan Buddhism describes the heart chakra as an 8 white-petal center that is the seat of the Very Subtle Mind and the Very Subtle Wind. These two qualities are immortal and reside in the seat of the heart from life time to life time. (For this reason, other people are recognizable in other lifetimes.) It is also described as the essence of Absolute Reality.The heart chakra is the fourth chakra, or the Anahata. It resides in the middle of the chakra system, balancing the 3 lower chakras which rule physical life and the 3 upper chakras, which control our access to spirituality. The heart (Tiphareth) is found in the Middle Pillar of the Kaballah.The Middle Way or Central Path is a dominant theme in philosophy. Balancing duality is an important task that is achieved by walking the Middle Path. Listening to the heart is the first step on this path. When we think with our heads and hearts in accordance, our actions begin to reflect a balance between thought and emotion. When we are one with the true or authentic self, the ego and soul are integrated. We live from the heart.Alchemy describes the awakening of the heart chakra as the communication between the heart and the Higher Self or Holy Guardian Angel. As we receive our direction from the heart, our outer direction in life becomes dictated by our inner knowing. We access the truth of our Higher Self and the immortal wisdom of the heart space.Experiencing Universal Love creates love for the self and others. Love becomes aligned with integrity, and our personal inner truth becomes more valuable. We gain true independence and self-reliance because we begin to relinquish our dependency on the outer world for direction.We learn to love the light in everyone, but we also learn to value our selves. Love has many faces in the mirror-like quality of our Universe. Restriction and expansion are two sides of one aspect of love. The restrictive and expansive nature of the universe — learning boundaries and seeing the truth- offers a glimpse into the mystery of the All.Speaking the truth of our hearts opens corridors of communication. When we live in the knowledge of our hearts, we give and receive equitably. When we are in balance with the One, this energy is reflected outwardly into the All. By simply reflecting on our hearts, we can affect marvelous changes in our lives that ripple outward into the world.EXERCISES: The wisdom of the heart chakra can be accessed through practice, attention, focus and a true desire to experience Universal love. You may find that researching the heart chakra and drawing an image of the chakra is helpful and fun.PINK HEART: Imagine that a beam from the Universe is pouring pink light (love) into the center of the chest. Breathe in this love and allow it flow throughout the entire body. Allow the pink light to flow into the nuclei of each cell and into the spaces between the cells. Remember: the Universe's capacity to give is infinite. You can receive as much light as you desire. (Note: this exercise is included in last month's voice stream on manifestation.)SENDING LIGHT TO OTHERS: You can also radiate this love or pink light to any situation or person. Imagine that the beam of pink light is pouring into your heart chakra. When your heart chakra is full, imagine that your friends and loved ones. See if you can find a location for them or imagine that they are in the room with you. Radiate a beam of pink light to each of them. Return to the present moment and allow more light to flow into your heart chakra. When you share light with others, you increase your capacity to receive light. You should feel slightly energized after the completion of this exercise.DAILY PRACTICE: Ask yourself several times each day when working, walking or performing daily tasks, "What does my heart think about this? How does my heart feel?" You may ask this question about people, situations or life changes. Eventually, you will "feel" or hear an answer from your inner self. You will know that this is your answer. (Truth is simple so your answer will probably be very short.)To purchase Julia's Manifesting Meditation, please visit her website:www.ancient-echo.comJulia GriffinJulia Griffin is an intuitive healer who has successfully transformed the lives of thousands of people through her manifestation and meditative techniques.

"While Starmer escapes to celebrate cheaper whisky in Tokyo, the atmosphere on the homefront is anything but intoxicating. A double shot of soy sauce is likely easier for him to swallow than his latest 75% disapproval rating.🥃✨"
