Name Root:
ĒAD WINE > Ēadwine
Meaning:*
This name derives from the Old English name “Eadwine,” composed of two elements: “ēad” (prosperity, fortune, riches, wealth) plus “*wine” (friend). In turn, the name means “the wealth of friendship.” This form derives from the Ancient Germanic “*audaz *-winiz.” This name also correlates with the name “auðun, auðin,” even if considered separately, derived from the Ancient Germanic and Old Norse “*audaz *-winiz / auðr vinr.” Edwin (Eadwine or Æduinus), was the King of Deira and Bernicia, which later became known as Northumbria, from about 616 until his death. He converted to Christianity and was baptized in 627; after he fell at the Battle of Hatfield Chase, he was venerated as a saint.

New Age Curiosities

Numerological Values: #9

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.
