Origin:
germanic
Name Root:
*haimaz *rīkijaz > Haimirich
Meaning:*
This name derives from the Old High German “Haimirich,” composed of two elements “*haimaz” (home, house) plus “*rīkijaz” (kingly, royal, noble, mighty, distinguished, powerful, rich). The name means “ruler of the home, sovereign of the homeland.” Harry, its English short form, was considered the “spoken form” of Henry in medieval England. Most English kings named Henry were called Harry. At one time, the name was so popular for English men that the phrase “Tom, Dick, and Harry” was used to refer to everyone. The most famous patron Henry II (Saint Henry), was Holy Roman Emperor from 1014 until he died in 1024. The last member of the Ottonian dynasty of Emperors, Henry II, succeeded to the German throne following his second-cousin Emperor Otto III’s sudden death in 1002. Henry was born on May 5, 972, the son of Duke Henry II, Duke of Bavaria, and Gisela of Burgundy.

Chakra Number: #9
Chakra "Pineal Gland"

The Pineal Gland is about the size of a pea, and is in the center of the brain in a tiny cave behind and above the pituitary gland which lies a little behind the root of the nose. It is located directly behind the eyes, attached to the third ventricle. This chakra is also known as the upper dan tien. The ninth chakra is an interesting chakra in that it is in this chakra that all the Christ abilities lie dormant, waiting to be released and used in the outer and inner worlds. The shift in focus at this time is toward that Christ energy and the accompanying abilities that go along with it. Hence, a great deal of work and energy is now being sent into physical reality to help the individual open up and expand this energy center.

Color meaning: Gold

It is no surprise that gold symbolizes wealth used wisely, but it is also the symbol of good health. People who favor the color gold are optimistic. The Tibetan Buddhist believes in 5 sacred stones: the crystal for light, turquoise for infinity of sea and sky, coral for life and form, gold for the golden ray of the sun, silver for the light of the moon. Gold is intimately linked with Divinity and those gods associated with the Sun. It symbolizes wealth and success.
