This Eight Direction model maps perfectly onto the eight arrows of the root chakra. The four petals of the chakra also map onto the four elements of Earth (North), Air (East), Fire (South) and Water (West). This chakra, being so closely related to the element of Earth, also reflects the earth elements.
Lexically, chakra is the Indic reflex of an ancestral Indo-European form *kʷékʷlos, whence also "wheel" and "cycle" (Ancient Greek: κύκλος, romanized: kýklos).

A smooth whitish mycelial layer covers the fruit body, and may be partially encrusted with debris. As the fruit body matures, the mycelial layer tears away, and the outer tissue layer, the exoperidium, breaks open in a star-shaped pattern to form 4–20 irregular "rays". This simultaneously pushes the fruit body above ground to reveal a round ...
It is one of seven mysterious energy sources located in different places around the world - these sources are also regarded as the seven main energy centres of Earth. [4] There is an assumption that the Earth has seven special places quite like ‘force centers’ of the human body called chakras in the tantric and yogic teachings of Hinduism.
The planet, dubbed Proxima b because it orbits Proxima Centauri, is thought to be a rocky and slightly more massive than Earth -- but that's not all. Scientists discover Earth-like planet orbiting ...
In astronomy, axis mundi is the Latin term for the axis of Earth between the celestial poles. In a geocentric coordinate system, this is the axis of rotation of the celestial sphere . Consequently, in ancient Greco-Roman astronomy , the axis mundi [ 1 ] is the axis of rotation of the planetary spheres within the classical geocentric model of ...
