Name Root:
*brunjǭ *hildiz > BRüNHILD (BRYNJA HILDR > BRYNHILDR)
Meaning:*
This name derives from the Old Norse “Brynhildr,” composed of two Germanic elements: “*brunjǭ” (breastplate, neck protection of medieval armor equipment, chest part of the armor, coat of mail) plus “*hildiz” (battle, fight). The name means “protected by the shield.” Brynhildr sometimes spelled Brunhild, Brünnhilde, Brynhild, a shieldmaiden and a valkyrie in Norse mythology, where she appears to be the main character in the Völsunga saga and some Eddic poems treating the same events. Under the name Brünnhilde, she appears in the Nibelungenlied and, therefore, also in Richard Wagner’s “opera cycle Der Ring des Nibelungen.” The Visigothic princess Brunhilda of Austrasia may inspire her. The history of Brynhildr includes fratricide, a long battle between brothers, and dealings with the Huns.

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.
