Origin:

Name Root:
hierós ónoma > Hīerṓnumos
Meaning:*
This name derives from the Ancient Greek “Hīerṓnumos (Ῑ̔ερώνυμος),” composed of two elements: “hierós (ἱερός)” (connected with the gods, supernatural, holy, sacred, consecrated, under divine protection) plus “ónoma (ὄνομᾰ)” (name). In turn, the name means “sacred name.” Already in use by the ancient Greeks, the name Hieronymos seems to reflect an old religious euphemism, probably used as a circumlocution to denote a particular pagan deity. Subsequently, however, it is likely that this expression is also coming into use in the early Christian circles, where the Sacred Name probably became a euphemism for the name of God). Saint Jerome was a Roman Christian priest, confessor, theologian, and historian, and who became a Doctor of the Church. He was the son of Eusebius, of the city of Stridon, which was on the border of Dalmatia and Pannonia. Geronimo, a prominent leader of the Bedonkohe Apache, fought against Mexico and the United States to expand into Apache tribal lands for several decades during the Apache Wars. “Geronimo” was the name given to him during a battle with Mexican soldiers.

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.
