Venus Chakra: Heart Energy

Your Venus chakra is located behind your heart.  It is the seat of compassionate energy.  Sitting comfortably, close your eyes and focus your attention on your Venus chakra.

Breathe, and with each breath, imagine pure love streaming from your heart into the world.  With your first 10 breaths, send compassion and love into the room where you are meditating.  With next 10 breaths, imagine the compassionate energy flowing out the doors to fill your entire house or apartment.  With the next 10 breaths, imagine the love energy overflowing your house or apartment, spilling out the windows and doors and encompassing your neighborhood.  The next 10 breaths fill your state.  With the next 10 breaths, compassionate love flows over the entire country.  Then, the continent.  With the last 10 breaths, embrace the entire planet in love.  You can even extend beyond the Earth to the other planets, galaxies, and realms of existence.  Feel how strong and far-reaching your energy can be.  Before you know it.  Compassionate energy will start bouncing back to you.
