What is Your Third Eye?

The third eye is considered by many to be the organ responsible for universal connection. It has a deep and significant history, making an appearance in cultures and religions throughout the world. The third eye can be seen in ancient depictions of art and architecture, most notably in the Ayurvedic philosophy where it is known as the Ajna chakra and Ancient Egyptian traditions where it is known as the Eye of Horus.

It is universally assumed that the third eye is located where the pineal gland of the human brain is. The pineal gland produces melatonin, the chemical in your body that controls your sleep patterns and other hormones.

Because of the pineal gland's biological makeup, it is often seen as the ultimate regulator of time. It also has significant control over other human behaviors like sleep, sexuality, thirst and hunger. For these reasons, the third eye and learning how to open your third eye is almost always associated with desire.

The Significance of Your Third Eye

So why is the third eye so important? In many traditions, the third eye is seen as the window into the psychic realm. The third eye is responsible for phenomena such as telepathy, lucid dreaming, astrology, and clairvoyance. It is what connects humans to the spiritual and metaphysical world.

People take such as interest in the third eye because it can allow us to surpass the disillusionments of the idea of a self and a solid reality. By harnessing the powers of the third eye, it’s possible to dissolve the line drawn between our spiritual and physical beings, regain consciousness in our dreams, and even break down the limits of different realities.

Reasons to Open Your Third Eye

There are many reasons to learn how to open your third eye, but the main is to unblock your ajna chakra and allow high sources of ethereal energy to be absorbed. A closed third eye is what leads to the negative feelings of confusion, uncertainty, cynicism, jealousy and pessimism. In order to move beyond these negative feelings that can have an impact on the quality of our life and mental health, we need to work on opening the third eye.

When we finally are able to open our third eye, it becomes easier to see the world as it truly is. Opening the third eye allows us to access feelings like clarity, concentration, bliss, intuition, decisiveness and insight. We also benefit from things like lucid dreaming, a heightened imagination, aura viewings, and better quality sleep when our third eye is unblocked.

How to Open Your Third Eye

If you are interested in learning how to open your third eye, there are many easy ways you can do so. All it takes is a little patience and dedication to be able to get all the benefits that come with opening your third eye.

Stay Away From Fluoride

Fluoride is a dangerous chemical that can lead to the calcification of your third eye. When your third eye is calcified, calcium phosphate crystals begin to build up on your pineal gland and other parts of your body causing them to be blocked off. This can impact your third eye chakra, and make it more difficult to open your third eye. Calcification can happen by ingesting everyday toxins like additives, hormones, artificial sweeteners, and fluoride. Radiation can also have an effect on calcification.

By avoiding fluoride, which can be found in most of our tap water, you can help to unblock your third eye. Invest in a water filter that can remove the fluoride from your drinking source. Also, avoid fluoride toothpaste and inorganic produce that has been treated with fluoride-filled pesticides.

Add Supplements to Your Diet

Supplementing your diet with healthy foods and minerals can counterbalance some of the harmful toxins we ingest every day. By detoxing these chemicals from your body you can begin to open your third eye. Some great supplements that are easy to add to your diet include fresh fruits like berries, lemons, watermelon, and bananas. You can also incorporate other supplements like honey, vinegar, raw cacao, ginseng, borax, vitamin D3, bentonite clay and chlorophyll.

Try blending some of these ingredients into a healthy detox smoothie that you can drink every day, or including them in your meals. Supplementing your diet is an easy and healthy way to open your third eye and increase your clarity.

Take Up Meditating

The benefits of meditating are endless. Not only can it promote a calm and stress-free lifestyle, but meditating activates the pineal gland through intentional and directed thought. When you visualize your third eye opening, the natural energy that exists in it is illuminated and released. While meditating, try taking deep, cleansing breaths that can also stimulate the pineal gland.

The most important thing to keep in mind when you take up meditating is to stay focused and direct your thoughts and energies towards your third eye. You might be surprised at how easy it is to open your third eye and dive into the world of your spiritual self through meditation.

Start Using Crystals

Last but not least, crystals are a great method for opening your third eye. Each crystal carries a different energy balance that collaborates with different chakras and spiritual realms of the body. If you’re focusing on learning how to open your third eye, using crystals and gemstones in the purple, indigo, and violet color family are the best option. Amethyst, purple sapphire, violet tourmaline and rhodonite are great choices for third eye activating energies.

You can incorporate crystals into your meditation routine by placing them in your palm or holding them between your brow on your forward while you practice deep breathing and concentration.

Bottom Line

Opening your third eye doesn’t have to be as hard as it seems. With these easy to follow tips, anyone can access the benefits of opening their third eye, getting in touch with their spiritual self, and gaining a new sense of clarity.
