The third eye (usually depicted on the forehead between the eyebrows, but slightly higher) is believed to give you sight or perception beyond your ordinary vision. With the third eye open your intuition is heightened, your ‘hunches’ will be correct, you will know things instinctually, such as whether a person you meet is a good person, or what decision to make or path to take – as the third eye opens you will be more decisive and more confident to go with your gut feeling.
Signs that your third eye is open, or opening:
• You have regular feelings of déjà vu
• You have vivid dreams which are easily remembered the next morning.
• You can pick up on the emotions of other people.
• You can pick up on the energies of other people and instinctually know things about them.
• Your creativity increases, and your ideas flow more freely.
• You may have visions or hear things that other people can’t see and hear.
• You just ‘know’ things. Without knowing how or why, you just ‘know’.
Don’t worry if you feel you don’t have this intuition or insight, there are things you can do to open your third eye and help you to see the unseen.
Here are a few tips which may help:
Meditation:
As you meditate, focus on that place between your brows, imagine it opening, and observe any thoughts, sounds, and images that are channelled. You can include crystals in your mediation too – indigo and purple crystals are the best to work with during third eye meditation.
Dreams:
Pay attention to your dreams and note them down if you can remember them on waking. You may see that things you thought were just random, actually have meaning as time passes.
Breathing:
Mindful breathing has so many benefits, and can help in all aspects of life. It is very useful when it comes to third eye work. Be mindful of your breathing, notice your inward and outward breaths, this helps to clear the mind and make space any visions or messages.
Aromatherapy:
It’s time to break out those essential oils and use them in a ritual bath, oil burner, or diffuser, fragrances such as frankincense, lavender, clary sage, and sandalwood can stimulate the third eye.
