Meaning:*
This name is a Spanish form derived from the Visigothic “aliwēr,” composed of two elements; “*aljaz / aljis / *aljǭ,” meaning “other, another, else, foreign” plus “*wēraz,” meaning “true, trustworthy.” The second hypothesis is from the Old Gothic name “Guilvira” from various Germanic combinations such as “*gailaz plus *wēraz / *gailaz plus *waraz. However, it is possibly of Arabic origin, meaning “the white,” linked to the Spanish “elva” (Latin: albinus). This hypothesis is supported by the ancient name of the city of Granada, which was “Elvira,” a Spanish adaptation of Arabic “Ilbirah” (bab Ilbirah). 1) Saint Caecilius of Elvira is venerated as the patron saint of Granada, Spain. Tradition makes him a Christian missionary of the 1st-century, during the Apostolic Age. He evangelized the town of “Iliberri or Iliberis” (Elvira/Granada) and became its first bishop. He is thus considered the founder of the Archdiocese of Granada, established around 64 AD. 2) Elvira of Castile (~1100–1135) was the first Queen of Sicily. 2) Elvira Ramírez (~935–986) was a Leonese princess who served as a regent of the kingdom during the minority of her nephew Ramiro III of León.

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.
