The twelve-petalled lotus flower, also called the heart chakra (Sanskrit: अनाहत Anāhata "the undamaged"), is one of the seven main soul organs of perception in the human astral body. It is located in the immediate vicinity of the heart. The so-called subsidiary exercises, also known as the six qualities, promote the regular formation and activation of the heart chakra. This creates the basis for the new heart thinking that is to be developed in the present Michael Age. The 12-petalled lotus flower opens up insights that reach the level of intuition. It is the main sense of intuition through which, among other things, retrospection into previous incarnations becomes possible. In order for the heart chakra to become consciously active, the sentient soul must be transformed into the intuitional soul.
„The organ in the neighbourhood of the heart opens up a clairvoyant knowledge of the disposition of other souls. He who has trained it can also recognise certain deeper forces in animals and plants.“ (Lit.:GA 10, p. 84)
According to the findings of the German mystic and Jakob Böhme disciple Johann Georg Gichtel, the heart chakra is under the direct influence of the solar sphere. Its colour, according to modern yoga teachings, is green oder peach blossom.
The twelve-petalled lotus flower is symbolised by the rose cross and the twelve companions as described by Goethe in his poem "The Mysteries".
