It is the spiritual eye that seeks to see & know the truth in all things. Listen to this Open Third Eye Chakra meditation for calm sleep, and healing.

Our intuition and our ability to see with vision come from this open third eye chakra which is governed by the 5th ray of “Concrete Knowledge”. According to Sandra Weaver, it is the spiritual eye that seeks to see and know the truth in all things and that from the sixth of the seven chakra symbols we close our physical eyes and look at the world from all aspects of self. Our intuition becomes our guide.

The power to perceive every reflection from the outer world is given to us by a healthy third eye, as a direct call for us to accept it as ours, heal and love it.

In the article “The Seven Chakra Symbols and Their Meaning” Sandra Weaver also explains that “Blocks in this chakra cause us to become delusional, unimaginative, indifferent and to have poor memories. Worry is a big problem, spaced-out, and poor concentration also plagues a person with a sick third eye chakra.”

The author also refers to the health issues associated with this Chakra: headaches, eye problems, pituitary and pineal glands, neurological problems.

So you can meditate on this chakra Sandra Weaver suggests you ask yourself the following questions:

Can you let your imagination soar and visualize?
Do you constantly justify and give reasons for acting without love?
Do you have “insight” as to what’s happening in any situation?
Do you have difficulty concentrating?
Health issues: headaches, eye problems, pituitary and pineal glands, neurological problems.

Transcendence of the unloving imprints of this chakra: “Balance the physical and the mental.
