*Dyēu-pəter > Iou-pater > Iŏvis > Iūpiter / Iuppĭtĕr
Meaning:*
This name derives from the Pie (Proto Indo-European) and Latin “*djew > iou-pater > iŏvis > iuppĭtĕr,” meaning “supreme god.” Jupiter is the king of the gods and the god of sky and thunder. Jupiter was the chief deity of Roman state religion throughout the republican and imperial eras until the empire came under Christian rule. Jupiter was the son of Saturn (Cronos in Greek mythology). Saturn, the previous king of the gods, began to swallow the children he had with his wife, ops (Greek equivalent Rhea) when they were born. It was because he had been warned that one of his children would overthrow him. Jupiter and his brothers divided the universe into three parts, Jupiter obtaining the heavens, Neptune the sea, and Pluto the underworld. It is how Jupiter became the king of the gods. In Latin, “Jovis dies” is the day of Jupiter (English: Thursday), from the Proto-Germanic counterpart “thunraz” (god of thunder).

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.
