☽ ☆ ☾ THE THIRD EYE CHAKRA ☽ ☆ ☾
The 3rd eye chakra, represented by the indigo color, is the sixth chakra in the human body and is associated with light and illumination. Its Sanskrit name Ajna, pronounced Agya, translates as command. This chakra is associated with intuition, psychic ability, and connection to the spiritual realm.

The 3rd eye chakra is responsible for imagination and higher thinking. When balanced, your instincts are strong, and you can see beyond the physical world. Furthermore, you can trust your intuition and use it as your guiding light.
In contrast, when the 3rd eye chakra is unbalanced, you may feel spaced out, disoriented, or foggy. Addictions can also manifest in different ways to numb the pain and feel connected to something bigger than yourself.

To help balance the third eye chakra, you can try using certain gemstones like amethyst, lapis lazuli, and purple fluorite. Carrying these stones or wearing them (as in the case of jewelry) can help to open and activate the third eye chakra, promoting greater insight and understanding.
