The heart chakra is the center of feelings both good and bad. Allowing sorrow, anger, sadness, and lust which originate from lower heart chakra center. Where the higher heart center governs over unconditional love, our self understanding, an ability to overcome the feelings of our lower heart chakra center.
This chakra is one of positive energy and connecting the lower with higher heart is an important step in our path of spiritual healing. Opening the heart chakra entirely enables a channel for universal compassion (our true self), something the Buddhists refer to as Mahakaruna. This allows infinite love to flow through us, allowing the healing of ourself and others. I’m sure you have heard before that in order to love others you must love and accept yourself, this is the lesson of the heart chakra.
A balanced Heart Chakra will manifest through love and compassion towards all mother earths creatures, and a great appreciation for them as well. A caring, understanding, outgoing, and kind demeanor in which you find it easy to express your true self around all the people you interact with. Understanding and acceptance of others for who they are without passing judgement or ever being critical of their actions will also come natural to those with a balanced heart. Finding comfort spending time alone, and not finding the need to rush from one relationship to another is also a sign of a truly balanced heart chakra. You would rather wait for the right one to come into your life when the time is right for this to happen.
An Unbalanced Over-active Heart Chakra typically can be expressed by allowing emotions to rule
your life. Sadness, grief, anger, happiness, greed, will literally consume you, and leave you with little to no control over these feelings. Being critical of others or displaying manipulative tendencies are sure fire signs of an overactive heart chakra. Being involved in a relationship with someone whom you give and gibe, but receive nothing back from is also commonly tied to an imbalanced heart. This can be as simple as constantly forgiving, and cleaning up after them both emotionally and physically. Finding it hard to leave, and being in a co-dependent relationship definitely effects the heart in a negative way.
An Unbalanced Under-active Heart Chakra leads to negative thinking, and will make it hard to achieve a positive outlook in life. Feeling unloved, and unappreciated are typical when your heart chakra is under-active. When focusing on these thoughts the power of attraction will of course manifest these feelings into your life. It is likely that you will find it very difficult to trust others, and will keep yourself distant from them as well.
