Third Eye Chakra (आज्ञा)

Third Eye ChakraThird Eye Chakra

The Third Eye chakra, or Ajna (Monitoring Center), is the Sixth Chakra, located between and slightly above the eyebrows. It regulates the energy associated with Intuition and reasoning. It is associated with the colour Indigo and has the Beej Mantra of Aum, has the element Light and is Masculine in nature. Blockage of the Third Eye Chakra could be due to parents not acknowledging your insights, close mindedness in the family, repeated ‘listen to me’ etc. Third Eye Chakra Healing is needed when it gets blocked (or becomes overactive). This may happen due to any reason, consequently, there is a disruption in the flow of Life Force Energy. 

 

This can lead to any or all of these:

  • Being lost in thoughts, day-dreaming etc.
  • Emotional reactivity.
  • Addiction to anything (money, status, sex, relationships, food etc).
  • Failure to see the bigger picture.
  • Ignoring of intuition (It is never absent, you stop listening to it)!
  • Mistrust or dislike of people in general.
  • Superficial interactions with others.
  • Stubbornness and rigid opinion about almost everything.
  • Perceived as arrogant or dreamy.
  • Lack of focus and decisiveness.
  • You are overly logical or overly emotional

Chakra Healing

Chakra healing is the process of cleansing and energising one or more than one chakras. It can be done by using certain modalities. Other things such as foods, sounds, smells, yoga practices and healing crystals can also help. Third Eye Chakra Healing maybe followed by Chakra balancing for a more centered result.

When your Third Eye Chakra is open and balanced, you become calm, self-aware, and able to see ahead. Your mind doesn’t control or limit you, making it easy to tell what’s true from what’s not. You’ll also understand yourself, others, and life better. Intuition will come naturally, helping you make smart decisions based on reality, not imagination.

Balancing your Third Eye Chakra also makes you less stuck on your beliefs, allowing life to feel more flexible and lively. This helps you be more creative and spontaneous. You’ll gain a broader perspective, giving you wisdom and compassion. Spiritually, you can easily reach mystical states, like feeling timeless and boundless. Some people even discover special abilities like clairvoyance by working on this energy center.

Some practices that help

I can recommend the following practices for you. Please note that if you feel any kind of sensation/ pain on the area between the eyebrows, it is working!

  1. Listen to certain Music: A or Dha Note, Raga Bhairav, Jaunpuri and Asavari.
  2. Chanting the beej Mantra – Aum (It matches the vibration of the Third Eye Chakra). You may also try the 852 Hz music along with this.
  3. Yoga – In my practice, I have seen that Trataka (Candle Gazing) combined with the Anulom Vilom or Nadi shodhan Pranayam (Breathing Exercises) work really well. Certain asanas (Poses) are also beneficial. Some of them are:-
    • Utthita Balasana, also known as Extended Child Pose.
    • Parsvottanasana, also known as Pyramid Pose
    • Setu Bandha Sarvangasana, also known as Bridge Pose
    • Ushtrasana, also known as Camel pose.
  1.  Eat foods that resonate with Third Eye chakra dates, blueberries, figs, raisins, brinjal, purple cabbage, purple carrots etc. Jamun (Indian java plum) works really well in this!
  2. Crystal Therapy Certain crystals such as Amethyst, Lapis Lazuli, Labradorite, Black Obsidian, Clear Quartz (my favourite) etc,  if energised and cleansed regularly can help regularly cleanse and balance the Third Eye Chakra.
  3. Aromatherapy Fragrances such as Frankincense, Patchouli, Sandalwood, Juniper etc help. 
  4. Try Colour Therapy You may use Indigo shade colours in daily life. 
  5. Meditation Visualization and meditation can do wonders!
  6. Learn to listen and say thank you!
  7. Law of Attraction Mantras or affirmations can reprogram your unconscious thinking patterns. You can find a set of free Affirmations here.
  8. Contact a healer:  A good healer can work on you while you go about your day. You may also want to experience the near instantaneous results within yourself! 
Go ahead and try out any of the activities that you resonate with for a few weeks. You can also check which of your chakras maybe blocked from our free quiz. If you find it too troublesome, get a healer to work on you for Third Eye Chakra Healing, as it would be faster and easier.
