Cranium: Projection of the Five Elements, Five Star Palaces & Five Planetary Forces

System Level Connection

• Meridian Rhythm (Cycle) -Spiritual -Unmanifested World


• Cranial Rhythm - Higher Mental/Spiritual - Star Connection


• Heart Rhythm - Lower Mental/Social/Emotional - Sun Connection


• Breathing Rhythm - Physical - Earth/Moon Connection

In the heart center, the connection with other beings, the emotions and virtues arise.
When the heart center developed into a higher state, compassion evolved as a bridge to
the higher mental and spiritual level. Chi and awareness in the nervous system or spiritual
center is known in every spiritual tradition but the rhythm of the craniosacral system is a
relatively new discovery.

Craniosacral System................................................................................................

The craniosacral rhythm develops through the subtle cranial shifts that occur during the
unfolding of the embryonic nervous system and is a translation of the information in the
Governing Vessel. The brain and its ventricles produce a liquid called cerebrospinal fluid.
This fluid is rhythmically pumped into the sub-arachnoidal space around the spinal cord
between the surrounding fascia layers (the meninges). The Governing Vessel is located
at the back of the spinal cord - in the same space between the arachnoid and pia mater,
all the way from the perineum to the upper lip (and internally back down to the perineum).
In this way the Governing Vessel is constantly charging the cerebrospinal fluid and the
spine.
