As The World Turns: Green, Again

The chakra system, aka the human energy system, has so many correlations that I’ve spent a lifetime amassing and thinking through which make sense to me. One of the ideas that makes the most sense to me is that chakras are awakened at certain times of your life.

Today, we’ll focus on the Fourth Green Heart Chakra, the one that lives near your physical heart.

Its basic purpose is to learn Personal Love.

Its keyword is Love.

Its primary verb is I Love.

It gives you the right to … Love and Be Loved.

Given just those minor correspondences in the list above, does it not make complete sense that the Third Chakra develops most between the ages of 22 and 28?

And we revisit that Fourth Green Heart Chakra between the ages of 78–84!

For the 22–28 group, that’s what anyone new to incarnation is doing during those years? Learning to navigate personal love and relationships in their own behalf.. How to identify what love is. How to love just enough and not too much. . How not to love in any given circumstance. How to interpret love when it arises. How to communicate your love. How to receive love. How to … love in the world. In fact, those fourth seven years could be considered a crash course in Personal Love 101.

But what about the Fourth Chakra Return, if you will? What are we revisiting then? Think, Beloved. By the time of this recycle, aren’t you examining the basic conclusions you made about love at that very young age? Aren’t you looking back and looking forward, wondering what Loving means to you at this point?

How well and how safely these aspects of the self develop affect the entire experience of the rest of your life whether you’re 22–88 or 78–84.

If you know you have love or relationship issues — things you learned that you’d like to unlearn, or things you never learned that you’d like to learn — one of the easiest ways to do that is to spend some quiet time just looking deeply at the image in this post.

That saturated green can help to fill in any gaps and remove any inaccuracies. Even better … all the while bypassing the stories you tell yourself and others about why. The color is energy, and it will change your energy.

One of the most important things about the chakras, if not the most important, is that they are meant to work together, all together. All the time.

Here is where chakras come from: When a being incarnates, there is a burst of brilliant light. I’d call that The Divine Spark. It animates all your systems. If you’ll view that burst of light, that Divine Spark, through a prism, you will see the eight major chakras.

Next time you’re struggling in a situation where your heart feels threatened, note your behaviors, be kind to your inner 78–84-year-old, wear green, and meditate on the image. See if that doesn’t help you toward inner peace.
