The time is upon us to heal the wounds of the heart. It is time to heal the planet, one heart at a time, one heartbeat at a time. Your heart center is your portal to this new level of consciousness, and this new world.
Your body, and all of creation, has portals built into its substance and fabric. A portal is a gateway or opening into other dimensions or states of consciousness. The human body has multiple portals, and while most of us have lost consciousness of this, certain traditions have kept the knowledge alive for centuries. The mystics of the east have called these portals chakras, or energy centres. It is through these centres that we exchange energy and information with the universe.
The chakras are also portals to other humans. Each time we interact with someone, we not only exchange words, glances or a touch. We are all the time sharing information and energy on a more subtle level than this, and this is enabled through the chakras. The heart chakra holds an energy field and a consciousness that is a link with life itself and the divine essence of all things. We associate the heart with feeling, but it is far more than this. The heart center is the thinking-feeling-knowing aspect of ourselves. In a sense it is the center of who we are as a unique expression of Divine Essence.
The heart center, just like all portals, can be open or closed. They are somewhat like the shutter of a camera lens, but on an energetic level.
When it is closed off, it filters the inward bound and outward bound energies in a very guarded way. We have actually come to allow the brain, and the belief systems we carry in the mind, to guard the heart center. This occurs on a very subtle energy level of thought, and can be described as a ‘thought-shield’ as it were. The fuller, greater connection with divine essence has been distorted. This has served to shut us off significantly from the guidance that is received and held in the heart center.
It is well within our ability to reverse this conditioning. As a practice, you can go often into your heart space and feel love and appreciation for all around you and all that you are experiencing.
Consciously draw the feeling of joy to your heart. Imagine loosening up the knots, and breathing into this space and expanding the energy. Begin to see your heart space as sacred, expanded, whole and infinite. Think of the most elevated feeling you’ve experienced, remember it and draw it back to your experience. Feel how this feels around your heart, and then remember to draw this to you heart even more often. Let go of the old emotional hurts that you have been carrying here. The grief, the pain, the doubt and the fear have been weighing you down and closing you off from a greater experience and expression of life and universal love.
Open up to Joy and Love again. This leads to a process of transformation.
Open your heart to all those around you. By opening your heart to others, you will open your heart to the Divine essence. Your heart contains an intelligence that is profound. It is intimately connected with every other heart. In this sense we are all of one heart. We are One. Misapprehension of this truth, and coming to believe in our false identities has served to divide us, with this sense of division and separation expressing in untold misery, depression, disease and violence. When you transform these dense low vibrations of the heart, you uplift yourself and simultaneously offer this upliftment to the collective. You send out ripples of higher frequencies towards others on earth and this helps in simulating the same frequency in others. It also touches and connects with others of like minds and like hearts. This frequency begins to build and increase in resonance, and offers you and all of humanity full healing and reconnection to Divine Essence.
Humanity is awakening to a whole new pattern of consciousness in which the thinking heart will once again be seen and honored. You have a part to play in this awakening, and each and every one of us, and we can activate this re-awakening by the simple yet profound practice of opening our hearts again.
