The heart Chakra mainly opens the floodgates of emotions. The psychic, which is right behind, turns these emotions, as well as thoughts and will, towards the Divine. The chakras are simply a vortex of energies that acts like a knot to restrict the universal into a limited individual working. When the heart Chakra opens, it merely floods the heart with excessive emotions, which can even be destabilising. But with the psychic contact, these emotions begin to turn towards the Divine in a growing state of faith, sincerity and surrender. The seat of aspiration towards the Divine is always in the psychic being. It is only under its influence that emotions will turn towards the Divine. Otherwise, it will just be an excess of emotions pouring from every side, above, around, below. The emotions in the emotional centre are mixed, a mixture of truth and falsehood. Psychic feelings are always turned towards the Divine and when they turn towards the world, it is towards Truth, Beauty and Good.
Affectionately,
