The Third Eye/Brow Chakra

Activating Colour: Indigo

Element: Spirit

Location: Between Eyes/Brow

Aspect: “I See”

The Third Eye Chakra is also commonly known as the Brow Chakra and is the sixth of the seven main Chakras.  It is situated between your eyes in the centre of your forehead and is associated with the colour indigo and the element of spirit – the metaphysical or beyond the physical.  The Third Eye Chakra is associated with the energies of clear seeing and discernment.  Once the energies of your Throat Chakra have been cleared, you will have created space for energy to flow up into your Brow Chakra.

Positive aspects of a balanced Third Eye Chakra: You have enhanced intellectual and psychic abilities such as spiritual awareness, psychic perception, clairvoyance, mindfulness, intuition, imagination and clarity. Through your ability to consciously travel into the higher dimensions your ability to visualise and manifest is heightened. You display an inner knowingness and can tune in to your multidimensional sensory system, higher psychic senses and sixth sense.

The Third Eye Chakra starts to develop during puberty and is also associated with the seven year cycle of ages 36-42 years.  These are the stages in life where you are learning to live in harmony with your expanded Self and also with others.  You begin to realise that your True Self is multidimensional and doesn’t just exist in the third dimensional World.  As you begin to expand your consciousness you also begin to look at your life differently.  As a self-realised adult you begin to experience ‘problems’ in your life as initiations through which you can grow and expand your consciousness.

Many people at this time have a blocked Third Eye Chakra, choosing to stay firmly in the materialistic and physical third dimensional world.  Once you begin to open, clear and activate your Third Eye you will very quickly realise that you will no longer be so attached to this physical world.  Your awareness will expand and you will begin to understand and ‘see’ all the possibilities that are available to you.  Through this expansion you will be able to observe the outer ‘theatre’ of life through your Inner Vision giving you more understanding around the motivation behind actions.  You will begin to look within for your answers in life and will look to your outer resources for validation instead of your only source of information.

Negative aspects of an unbalanced Third Eye Chakra: You may be overly intellectual or intellectually stagnant and judgemental of others.  You may be cynical or insensitive, have rigid thought patterns and irrational fears.  You may find yourself overly detached from the World and distant from others and may display a limited view of reality.

When your Third Eye Chakra is blocked or unbalanced you can have difficulty focusing in life and struggle to detach yourself from your 3D physical World.  When you connect to and open your Third Eye Chakra, you will find that you expand your consciousness beyond the confining circle of your third dimensional self.

By developing your higher senses you are able to expand your perceptions of life.  You lift your vibration to such an extent that you no longer experience your physical life in the same way because you cannot limit your Self to living in just a 3D World. You will begin to access the world of multidimensional hearing, seeing, feeling and touching, expanding your awareness and tapping into your inner store of inspiration and enhanced creativity.

This creates shifts in your life that can include changes in your job, your friends and your relationships as you begin to attract new possibilities into your life.  You will begin to attract new job opportunities, friendships and relationships that recognise and accept the changes that have occurred within you.  You will also find that these changes also encourage others around you to look at their own lives from a different perspective, creating changes within them too.

Physical symptoms of an unbalanced Third Eye Chakra: Headaches, eye problems, nightmares, blurred vision, blockage of multidimensional senses: touch, taste, sight, hearing and smell.

The areas of the physical body that are associated with the Third Eye Chakra are: Pineal Gland, brain, eyes and sinuses.

Possible causes of problems in the Third Eye Chakra: Fear of opening up to your psychic abilities, invalidation of intuition, previous belief systems creating a fear filled environment.

Expansion of consciousness is the overriding aspect of this Chakra.  Taking you out of your 3D physical world and allowing you to recognise and move into the possibilities that are available to you through your multidimensional connections, are the domain of an open Third Eye Chakra.

Through the expansion of your third dimensional consciousness you will begin to open up and encompass a perception of the fourth dimension.  Through this perception of the fourth dimension you will begin to remember your inner travels either through sleep or meditation.  You will also learn how to integrate the inspiration, knowledge and experiences you have gained in your everyday physical life.
