4th Chakra: Heart Chakra – Anahata – Green color
What are chakras?
The word chakra comes from the Sanskrit "wheel", they are regulators of subtle energy represented by lotus flowers. Hindus count 7 of them. They are distributed from the coccyx to the top of the head. They function like valves and distribute the universal vital energy in the body. If there is a blockage or a disorder, occurring when the energy is excessive or deficient, this affects a part of the network and has repercussions everywhere else. It is therefore necessary to rebalance this point so that the prana circulates correctly. The rise of energy borrowing the chakras is called "ascension of the Kundalini"

Suffering from the fear of rejection, they refuse love for fear of suffering. Often possessive, selfish and alone these people have difficulty trusting and forgiving.
