Name Root:
*Toranos
Meaning:*
This name derives from the Proto-Celtic form of the name “*Toranos”, meaning “thunder”. In the present day, the Welsh “taranu” and “taran” means “to thunder, thunder” (Breton: taraniñ / taran). In Celtic mythology, Taranis was the god of thunder worshipped principally in Gaul, Gallaecia, Britain, and Ireland, and the Rhineland and Danube regions, amongst others. Taranis, along with Esus and Toutatis as part of a sacred triad, was mentioned by the Roman poet Lucan in his epic poem Pharsalia as a Celtic deity to whom human sacrificial offerings were made. According to the Pictish king-lists, Taran, son of Ainftech, was a King of the Picts (692–96). In some instances, the surname may be a variant of the French name “Taurin,” which derived from the Latin “taurus,” bull, and would have been a nickname given to a large, aggressive man. The creation of surnames from nicknames was common in the Middle Ages, and many modern-day surnames are from medieval nicknames referring to personal characteristics.

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.
