anahata meaning
Heart or “Anahata” Chakra meaning “unbeaten” or “unhurt” is the fourth Chakra located at the center of the chest where our heart organ lies. Its color is green and can turn pink with higher energy frequencies. Its symbol is represented by two intersecting triangles forming a star with six points in a circle of 12 petals. The petals represent the twelve divine qualities connected with our heart – peace, bliss, love, harmony, empathy, understanding, purity, clarity, compassion, unity, forgiveness and kindness. The intersecting triangles symbolize the unison of two seemingly opposite energies (male and female energy) to form a harmonious energy, making heart the center of connection. The fourth Chakra is related to the element of air and is related to our breathing and its movements (lungs) and cardiac system. It also represents our connection with space.
