Getting to Know Your Third Eye Chakra
Your sixth chakra gets its name because of its placement. It is located between your eyebrows, thus earning its name as the third eye chakra. The Sanskrit word for this energy center is Ajna, and its color is indigo blue or purple.
Sixth Chakra – Light, vision, sight, perception, visualization, insight, dreaming. This chakra is known as the brow chakra or third eye center. It is related to the act of seeing, both physically and intuitively. As such it opens our psychic faculties and our understanding of archetypal levels. When healthy it allows us to see clearly, in effect, letting us “see the big picture.”
As you can imagine from its name, the energy which flows from a healthy third eye chakra gives you the gift of sight, both inward and outward. This allows for excellent guidance since your vision is always true. You are mindful of each moment, since you accurately and clearly visualize your inner emotions and outward behavior by yourself and others. Oils successfully used to balance the 3rd eye chakra are bergamot, lemon, and orange.
This leads to clear thinking and honest self-contemplation. You don't judge any self-limiting ideas or poor behavior you may have suffered from in the past. You clearly see what actions and plans will lead to negative and positive consequences, and this clarity of vision leads you on the correct path.
When fully activated, both sides of your brain function properly, in harmony with each other. Your creativity and logic perform a perfect balancing act and work together.
Your Ajna is also the energy center which acts as your conscience. Your vision is clear and you can definitely see what is happening inside and outside your body, and you also instantly understand what those actions mean.
