the Third Eye, Inner eye or 6th Chakra, is where we connect to the mental plane of our existence. Our ideas, dreams, goals, values and our “self” image all begin here! What are your ideas ? Dreams ? Goals ? & values ? How about your self image ? Are these things that are of importance in your life, are they clear for you ? Are you filled with inner worry or are you following in tow and listening to your soul ?
It is by our thoughts that we are able to express ourselves in the world, and it is from our thoughts that we are able to make our dreams a reality! Do your thoughts / words / actions and emotions match ?
In developing our inner perception through meditation we begin to understand that all events in our life happen for a reason and we see everything for what it is, not as we think it is. We begin to understand that we are the Dream Weaver in this intricately designed web of reality!
The third eye is our gateway into higher realms of consciousness. When one becomes enlightened you understand fully, without a doubt that we are truly all One and that our idea of separation from one another is nothing more than an illusion.
When your Ajna is in balance with your other chakras, you will begin opening up to Universal Knowledge and truly understand that you are the Creator in your Reality! You will experience Higher states of consciousness, allowing you to astral travel, have out of body experiences, and receive messages from your Spirit Guides, Angels and other Enlightened Beings. You will be very intuitive, have a great memory, and will be able to learn without a problem.
Over-active Ajna
If you have an over active third eye you may experience stress accompanied by frequent headaches that happen in the forehead or temples. You may become delusional and create circumstances in your mind that are not really happening (a mental disease). An individual with over-activity in this chakra may also tend to be judgmental, unsympathetic or over-intellectual in their thinking.
Under-active Ajna
If your third eye is under active you will probably have difficulty in understanding the spiritual side of the world and the connection between your inner and outer reality. You may lack empathy for the people in your life, lack common sense, or intuition. Memory and learning can be affected if the third eye is not balanced.
Physical symptoms of an Imbalance:
Brain cysts, tumors, strokes, blindness, deafness, seizures, insomnia, learning disabilities, spinal dysfunction, panic, depression, addiction, migraines, headaches, dizziness, nausea, sinus problems, ear aches, hormonal imbalance and equilibrium dysfunction.
Positive Affirmation while Focusing on the 3rd Eye: I can see and think clearly, I see that all is well in my world. I see of the solutions to situations in my life and make positive changes now! I am the creator of my reality and my dreams are coming true. I am one with the vibration of the Infinite potential of the Universe.
Colour of the Third Eye: The third eye chakra is associated with the colour indigo. Simply lighting this colour of candle and relaxing while focusing on this chakra can bring it into balance. Also wearing indigo coloured clothing or surrounding yourself with this colour of flower can bring harmony within the chakra.
Organs/Glands governed by the Third Eye: Brain, neurological system, eyes, ears, pituitary gland, pineal gland.
Nutrition for the Third Eye:Brain foods high in Omega-3 fatty acids, such as fish, nuts, and vegetables are all great choices when it comes to nourishing our third eye. Dark chocolate (which contains caffeine) not only helps with our mental clarity, it also can also help us feel more relaxed and help lower high-blood pressure! We should always intuitively eat, as our body knows what it needs. Certain berries, (blueberries and strawberries) are shown to have a positive influence over our memory and ability to learn! Berries contain powerful antioxidants that help us in our cognitive thinking and reasoning.
Aromatherapy for the Third Eye: Angelic root, bay laurel, clary sage, cypress, elimi, frankincense, helichrysum, juniper, marjoram, patchouli, rosemary, sandalwood, vetiver
Healing the Third Eye with Nature: The Ajna’s element is light. Sitting out in the sunshine with a blue sky can not only balance your third eye, but the throat chakra as well. You will be able to feel the sun radiate through if you focus your attention on the spot just above your eye brows!
Sound Therapy for the Third Eye: The Seed Sound for this chakra is “Eem” and it resonates to note “A"
