Why this chakra?
This page rests on the (Anahata), the fourth of the seven centres. In the yogic tradition it is placed in the centre of the chest and is associated with tenderness and compassion, the place where service to others begins.
Keeping people safe is care in its plainest form, which the tradition places in the heart. A soft arc around a small light stands for shelter.
This is how the yogic tradition describes the centres; it is a map for reflection, not a scientific or medical claim.
