Meaning:*
This name derives from the Germanic (Goths) “*amal / ama-l *swinþaz > amalasuintha,” meaning “very active, strong work.” Amalasuntha was a queen of the Ostrogoths from 526 to 534. She was married to Eutharic, an Ostrogoth noble of the old Amal line (who had previously been living in Visigothic Hispania), son of Widerich, grandson of Berismund, and great-grandson of Thorismund, king of the Ostrogoths. The Amali, also called Amals or Amalings, were the leading dynasty of the Goths, a Germanic people who confronted the Roman Empire in its declining years in the west. According to Gothic legend, the Amali was descended from an ancient hero whose deeds earned him the epithet of Amala or “mighty.” Melisende was the queen of Jerusalem from 1131 to 1153, and regent for her son between 1153 and 1161 while he was away on campaign. Millicent is a female given name that has been in use since the middle ages.

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.
