5 EASY TECHNIQUES TO OPEN THE THIRD EYE CHAKRA

The third eye chakra controls vision, intuition, perception of energies and dimensions, psychic abilities, illumination, inspiration and creativity.

By many, it is considered the chakra of awakening – when is open, we see the truths behind what we can see with our physical eyes.

Opening the Third Eye means literally accessing a different reality, a different level of understanding of life, a different perception of ourselves and others. It means accepting the truth and consciously taking actions to better the world for humanity.

Also called the “Eye of Insight”, this chakra is by far the most famous one, considered by many a sign of spiritual maturity and, for this reason, the one most people turn their attention to.

But is opening the third eye really a sign of awakening and spiritual maturity?

The answer is: “It depends”.

Ajna, the original Sanskrit name of the Third Eye is the sixth chakra in the classic 7 chakra system and the second one that helps us reach the 5th dimension of consciousness allowing us to manifest, co-create, communicate clearly with light beings, ascended masters, our Higher Self, visit past lives and many other wonderful things but It has to be unlocked mindfully.

Why? Well, first of all, all the previous chakras need to align and be balanced as each one of them contain not only specific energy and powers but also important soul lessons. Second of all, before opening Ajna, we need to learn how to deal with certain emotions and states like rage, anger and depression, we need to actively learn and practice forgiveness, unconditional love, gratitude and observing without judging.

When our Third Eye is open, we realise that everything we were told since we were born is a lie, we realise what is behind worldwide events and political choices, we finally grasp the meaning of life and the reason why we are here on Earth at this point in time.

Would you run a 100 miles marathon with no physical preparation for it? No, right? So, do not open your Third Eye if you are not ready to work on yourself.
