What is the 3^rd eye chakra?

Purple and indigo are the colours for the 3rd eye

3rd chakra or also known as Anja is the 6^th chakra of your body which is located middle of your forehead in between your eyebrow, and this is about sight, seeing further beyond than the physical world. Seeing further comes when you can see things that no one can’t or during mindfulness that you see things through your closed eyes. Careful with the difference between a belief or something delusional. 3rd eye is linked with psychic development, intuition, sight, spiritual awareness, perception, imagination and spiritual consciousness. The colour linked with the third eye is either purple or indigo in which purple is about psychic abilities, mysteries, intuition but also purple is a protective colour which can be link with the earth star chakra. The bija chant for the 3rd eye is OM or chanting Om Namah Shivaya is great but also the musical note for the third eye is in the key of A.

How the third eye becomes blocked?

When I just mentioned be cautious about the difference of a belief through soul or delusions through ego, when something starts taking control or can’t discipline yourself and you seeing something, even if it’s personal belief it’s probably ego taking control. With purple on the negative side means deceit or untrusting and when deceit happens, you’ve falsely saw something that was convincing and that blocks your 3rd eye. Lacking the trust of intuition, going more with the head than gut instincts.

How to heal the third eye?

Guided meditation does wonders for the third eye or visualisation exercises does good for the third eye. Breathing exercises will relax the third eye. Reiki or energy healing helps with sight. Crystals like Amethyst, Ametrine, Iolite, Auralite 23, Labradorite, Tektite, Rainbow Moonstone and Clear Quartz are great crystals for helping the 3^rd eye. Incense like Rosemary, Peppermint or Lavender are great for the 3rd eye. Chanting or playing or listening to anything in the key of A brings balance for the 3rd eye.
