THERE IS NO COUNTERPART FOR THE NEUTER HEART CHAKRA

The heart chakra, known in Sanskrit as the "Anahata," is the neuter connector of the soul, linking the top three female chakras with the bottom three male chakras. It controls the circulatory system of the soul. The heart chakra is different from the other six in that it is shaped like a yoni.

The Yezidi tradition preserves an allegory about seven sacred towers, six of them trapezoidal in form, and one (the center) shaped like a sharp, fluted point. This is a spiritual allegory. The center tower is the odd one out: the heart chakra. It is shaped differently because it functions differently.

The heart chakra does have power, but not the kind of power that the strongest chakra of the soul, the Solar 666 Chakra of the Sun, has. The powers of the heart chakra are lesser. This is why corrupted mainstream teachings emphasize it so heavily in popular books and New Age dogma. By directing practitioners toward the neuter connector instead of the true powerhouse, these teachings ensure that genuine spiritual power remains out of reach.

Healing Through the Heart Chakra

Despite being neuter, the heart chakra has a specific and powerful application in healing. Energy from the Solar Chakra can be directed outward through the heart chakra while holding a person or animal to the chest. Experienced practitioners have found this technique significantly more powerful and effective than healing with the hands alone. The heart chakra acts as a conduit: it takes the raw power of the solar plexus and shapes it into a form that can be received by another living being.

Many people who can astral project leave their bodies through the heart chakra. Its position at the center of the soul makes it a natural exit point for the astral body.

Simplified Guide

What to Know About This Chakra

The heart chakra is the bridge. It connects the lower chakras (base, sacral, solar) to the upper chakras (throat, 6th, crown). It is not the powerhouse. Don't let mainstream teachings convince you that "opening your heart" is the pinnacle of spiritual work. It's one piece of a larger system, and not the most important piece.

When the Heart Chakra Shines

Healing. If you want to heal someone (or an animal), draw energy up from your Solar Chakra and let it flow out through your heart center while holding the other being close to your chest. The heart chakra converts raw solar energy into a frequency that another body can absorb. This is its gift.

Astral projection. Many practitioners find it easiest to exit through the heart center. If other methods of astral projection aren't working, try focusing your awareness on the heart chakra and willing yourself outward from there.

Patanjali, Yoga Sutras III.34: "By samyama on the heart, knowledge of the mind is obtained." The heart center, while not the most powerful, is the seat of intuitive knowledge about others.
Proclus, Elements of Theology, Prop. 35: Every effect remains in its cause, proceeds from it, and reverts to it. The heart chakra embodies this principle: it is the point where descending and ascending energies meet, reverse, and return.
Chandogya Upanishad 8.1: "Within this body there is a small shrine shaped like a lotus, and within it is a small space." The "small shrine" is the heart center, and the "small space" within it is the passage to the astral.
