Openness-Heart Chakra

Perhaps you have protected yourself from being hurt and have built up heart walls to keep you safe. You deserve love. It’s okay to begin to heal these heart walls now and take a risk on love. When we attach to human love we are always at a risk of loss and hurt. If someone is consistently hurtful to you, it is okay to expect better and weave a different story of loving kindness into your life, practicing by loving yourself first. By allowing and feeling hurt, you create more of the same.

Be open to love now; this may require you to be honest with yourself and, if it feels right, to be open and honest with others. Love the parts of yourself your have previously rejected, that are hurt and afraid. Send love into the darkest corners, and nourish yourself so that you may open both to love and to others. Give freely and generously without concern for the scales of balance, for the universe will reflect love back to you in great measure. Practice opening your arms and hands out wide to beam love into the universe. Open yourself to love.

Action: Align with the beliefs on the card, and allow the practice of openness. Qigong is a wonderful practice to assist in opening all channels of energy so that you can be free-flowing. Notice where in your body you hold tightness and tension, and let this guide you to the blocked emotions and beliefs that are causing the contraction. Open to heaven and earth, then open your arms, your hands, your shoulders, and your heart, and breathe light and love into every crevice.
