Most people just look at the heart chakra as a whole when different blockages are found in different sections.
Why not take a look at the things listed below and see if you have any negative energy associated with them stored in your heart and then find the best way to clear it. You might also want to check the same positions in your physical heart as well to make sure everything is cleared out.
Always start by acknowledging what you find in case there is anything you need to learn from the trigger that caused it otherwise you will just have a re-trigger at some point and you’ll have to start clearing all over again.
If there is any anxiety around any of the things listed below, always ask for helpers and guides to support you and ease the release process.
Left side
- Lack of faith – in yourself or others
- Neglect of the Spirit
- Extreme physical / mental activity
Right side
- Arrogance
- Aggressive behaviour
- Problems with the fraternal / masculine relationship
Centre
- Insecurity
- Fear
- Scarcity issues
You may also want to take a look at these things and see if there are any blockages associated with these as well. Traces of these may also be found in the solar plexus and the sacral, so it’s worth looking there as well if you progress to this list.
- Lack of self-love or acceptance.
- . Lack of personal power or fear
- People draining your life force
- Self-doubt or worry
The stone I would recommend to help you while you work with any of these issues is Green Aventurine. It is a wonderful heart chakra stone, but the most beneficial thing about it is the fact that it has the most amazing gentle and soothing energy, which will be just what you need.
The crystal is used to clear and activate the heart chakra. It also protects the heart, shielding it from anyone who wants to tap into your energy and drain it.
It will also encourage you to release old thought and behaviour patterns, so new growth can occur on all levels, and in new directions. It helps this process by soothing the emotional body and it also assists with the clearance of old, emotional woundings which may be causing heart ache. Another helpful thing it does is allow you to see that every event which caused these woundings does not have to be examined or analysed or re-experienced. They just have to be released.
Lastly, it has a gentle grounding effect on your energy field and it can act as an anchor, allowing you to remain stable and during times of upheaval and change. I think that is just what we all need right now.
One of the easiest ways to allow the positive energy of Green Aventurine is to sit quietly with the crystal in your non-dominant (or incoming) hand for twenty minutes. It will automatically open your palm chakra as soon as you start to hold it and the energy will flow up your arm and into your system. You can enhance this process by setting the intention that you want to breathe it in on every in breath, and release any blocked energy it disrupts on your out breath.
Aventurine and the Solar Plexus
Aventurine will have a calming effect on any negative emotions which are stuck in this chakra or the lower abdominal area of the body, especially anger. To do this, place one stone on your heart and one on either the solar plexus chakra or the lower part of the stomach. Then using your breath, draw the energy of the stone in and release any negativity from your body and these two chakras. All you have to do is keep doing this until you feel the blockages have been cleared.
Journey well with your heart and green aventurine!
Bright Blessings
