How to Heal the Third Eye Chakra; The Psychic Chakra ⋆ Earth and Water

Our third eye chakra is our sixth sense, if you will. It is the center of our intuition and wisdom.

Sanskrit Name: Ajna (command)
Location: Forehead (generally speaking)
Color: Indigo
Element: All

Just like animals can sense changes in the environment that we can’t, such as earthquakes and weather changes, we have the ability to sense things that are not apparent or obvious.

In the past, we needed this intuition to be aware of our surroundings and predict potential threats to survive. As we’ve become more of a technological and developed world, centered around science and concrete evidence, we’ve lost touch with our intuition.

A healthy third eye chakra is a balance between the left “logical” brain and the right “creative” brain. Together, both sides of your brain can bring you to a place of trusting your intuition and in turn, thriving and flowing through your life gracefully and successfully.

The third eye chakra is multidimensional, allowing us to see into ourselves as well as the world around us, physical or otherwise. Which means it’s considered the center of psychic abilities. Interesting stuff, in my opinion.

Many people are skeptical in such claims because we have lost touch with the nonphysical in our science driven world. We seem to believe that if we can’t see it and feel it, it isn’t real.

Even though science is proving that things are more complicated than we could ever imagine, every day.

For thousands of years, claims of people with abilities have flooded our stories and histories.

It’s not as far fetched as you might think. Many people will find themselves carrying around an ability or two if they practice mindfulness in themselves and their world to notice.

Some of these abilities include:

Aura reading (being able to perceive energy surrounding a person, place or object)
Astral projection (also called out of body experiences)
Clairvoyance (perceiving something in another location)
Mediumship (or channelling which is basically communicating with spirits)
Telepathy (perceiving others thoughts)
Precognition (knowing the future or past)
Empathy (ability to feel others emotions)
+ Many more

We’ve become accustomed to trusting what we can see and feel to be true and in turn lost touch with our instincts and the magic we hold inside of us.

You can become more in tune with this side of you by meditating, practising mindfulness and allowing yourself to trust what your body tells you to be true. If you have a “hunch”, thought, idea or feeling about something automatically, it’s probably your intuition trying to tell you something. Try just going with it and see what happens.

People tend to shy away from this sort of thing because of fear of being considered crazy. I know I have always avoided it and only conversated about such things in privacy with my closest friends and relatives.

We’re so afraid of being out casts and shunned from the groups of society by mentioning such things. How unfortunate it is that we have to hide anything we believe or are interested in to be accepted in this world.

My grandmother will willingly admit to anyone that she has seen spirits. This is one of the many things I admire about her. Her two children, my mother and uncle, have both always had dreams that literally come true, accurately predicting the future.

Aside from being an empath, I’m hesitant to claim any abilities of my own. Maybe something else is there, maybe not. I’ll let you know in a few years when I truly figure it out.
