Auricles are a part of the heart

Heart

Published on Circulatory system.

Heart beat is sinusoidal, commanded by the autonomous nervous system. In other words, it is autonomous. The heart regulates itself according to the body needs. However, it does follow the respiratory rhythm. And the respiratory rhythm is commanded by our will, by our mind. This is the reason why when a relaxing period takes place, when the respiratory rhythm changes and calms down, the heart beat also suffers alterations.

Arrhythmias, for instance, reveal a loss of rhythm, of harmony, a loss of the inner order.

The heart is closely associated to the emotional side. It reacts to emotions. It is not ruled by will or by the intellect.

Any emotion, be it fear, joy or passion, makes the heart beat faster. To the extent that we can almost feel it beating in our throats.

Human beings thus have two centres: the brain and the heart.

Reasoning, rationalisation, thoughts, lay within the brain, whereas emotion and feelings are part of the realm of the heart. Emotions alter the heart.

Anything related to passion and emotion in a relationship takes place in the heart. It is the organ of love, of ephemeral passions. “He broke my heart! It is as if she pulled my heart out. My heart is pounding.”

But when the person controls his natural emotions (in other words, when he allows the mental process, the brain, to intervene in the dominion of emotions), such as fears, joys, passions, sadness, envy… this is when problems arise. The mind starts to control those natural emotions, thanks to beliefs or any other type of rules that the person imposes on himself, either in a conscious or unconscious manner. In effect, when the Cartesian mental process intervenes, it deregulates the heart (as well as other organs). The person who suffers from a heart condition is a person who does not accept nor live his emotions. It is a very yang person, with a very masculine behaviour. This person is a fighter.

Long term problems that the person has not faced up to, lack of joy, a belief in the need of effort and stress, constitute good ingredients for the emergence of heart related problems.

When horror to emotions becomes chronic, then we need to resort to pace-makers or any other sort of artificial devices in order to ensure a balanced rhythm.

Heart related problems indicate a huge quest for power. They denote a giant ego.

Only a hardened, tense, constricted and made of stone heart can be broken and explode.

The function of the autonomous nervous system and the function of the heart complement each other and live naturally in harmony. Our mental intervention only spoils the process.

Besides, we only feel our heart beat when it changes for no reason, in other words, when the mind stops respecting the body and starts to control us. The cardiac patient is a very mentally oriented person, very controlled. And given the fact that he is a very controlled person, he needs to do regular medical check ups to test out the condition and pace of his heart. He has entered a controlling vicious circle. He is a person who finds it difficult to love and/or to feel and live up his emotions.

The heart is the core part of the body. When referring to ourselves, we touch our body with our hand, in the area where the heart resides. The person who suffers from a heart condition is someone who does not know how to centre himself.

The heart is formed by two sides, one on the left and the other on the right. It is dual. On the other hand, its beat is bitonal, which means the heart expresses our life in a dual world, in the world of matter.

The right side of the heart is the feminine side, yin, and the left side of the heart is masculine, yang. This applies to everyone, both left and right-handed people!

The auricula and the ventricle are on the left side, and the same happens with the right side. Red blood is pumped out by the aorta through the left ventricle; it is a live, oxygenated blood (yang). A slower type of blood, the venous blood (yin), enriched by the knowledge it has of the body and which is brought by the veins to be purified, comes through the right auricula.

Ventricles are more dynamic, whereas auriculae are more passive. Therefore, ventricles are more masculine (yang) and auriculae are more feminine (yin). We thus have a double duality. The left side is more yang. But the auricula side is more yin.

Accordingly, the right auricula shows the yin of yin; the left auricula indicates the yin of yang: the right ventricle shows the yang of yin; the left ventricle indicates the yang of yang.
