\u201cImagination is more important than knowledge.\u201d<\/em> Albert Einstein<\/p>\n The third eye chakra is known in Sanskrit as Ajna, meaning to see and to command. It is located between the eyebrows. Awakening the third eye opens us up to higher levels of perception through our intuition, and allows us to gain a greater command of life through the use of our imagination. We are able to visualise, receive dream images, recall memories and tap into archetypal energies.<\/p>\n Indigo, the colour of the night sky, is the resonating color of the third eye. In many cultures, indigo has a strong association with the heavens. Contemplation, truth, wisdom, and infinite space are also symbolised by this colour.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n When the third eye chakra is deficient in energy we have an overt lack of trust in our intuition. By not being attuned to the subtle capabilities of the third eye, we may fail to pick up on meaningful signs and synchronicities, which if acknowledged could guide us and help us through life.<\/p>\n Further when this chakra is excessive in energy our intuition becomes distorted, often to the point where deep meaning is given to anything and everything. We often escape into an all-consuming fantasy world, which can make it difficult for us to distinguish between what is real and not real. Constantly bombarding us with apparent insights and images, this excessive energy needs to be grounded.<\/p>\n When this particular chakra is healthy, it can assist us in using our intuition and insight without fear and without delusion. When we bring our third eye chakra into balanced activity, our clairvoyance opens up, and we can begin to truly see what is going on within our lives. Once this is clear and balanced we have a healthy intellect balanced with strong intuitive abilities. You can sum this up as \u201cwisdom\u201d.<\/p>\n Balancing your third eye chakra:<\/p>\n Play with the colour indigo; you may want to wear it or even sit under the night sky and tune into the energy of the deep midnight blue of the sky. Start a dream journal or a vision board (or both!) Commit to doing a morning or evening meditation \u2013 it doesn\u2019t have to be for long periods of time, it is the regularity of the practice that heightens your third eye. Most of all \u2013 trust, trust, trust your intuition. Tap into the signs and synchronicities and let them be a guide in your life<\/p>\n Ajna crystals:<\/p>\n Lapis Lazuli, azurite, and sapphire will all help enhance your third eye energies. Lapis Lazuli is a symbol of knowledge, wisdom, and protection. Azurite awakens psychic abilities, insight, and intuition. Sapphire aids meditation and is connected to wisdom, intuition, and spiritual development.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/p>\n Ajna oils:<\/p>\n Violet, sandalwood, thyme, and juniper are some of the associated oils for the third eye chakra. If you get headaches (which are symptoms of an imbalanced third eye) use lavender, eucalyptus, peppermint or melissa. A cool compress with essential oils added can be placed on your forehead and over your eyes. You can also rub lavender directly on to your temples to soothe and release any restriction you are feeling in your third eye.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Chakradance workshops related to Third Eye chakra :<\/p>\n Awaken Dreamer (Heal Your Life, online workshop)<\/p>\n Dance of Intuition (Awakening, live session)<\/p>\n Third Eye \u00a0\u2013\u00a0Super Charge Your Intuition And Clarity (Freedom, live session)<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.19.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.19.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.madaboutchakras.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Front-page-banner.png” alt=”Sponsors – Endorsements” title_text=”Sponsors – Sponsors – Endorsements” _builder_version=”4.19.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]\n\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" AJNA (THIRD EYE CHAKRA)\u201cImagination is more important than knowledge.\u201d Albert Einstein The third eye chakra is known in Sanskrit as Ajna, meaning to see and to command.
