Third Eye Chakra
The
third eye chakra is related to the act of seeing, both physically and
intuitively. As such it opens our psychic faculties and our understanding of
archetypal levels. When healthy it allows us to see clearly, in effect, letting
us ‘’see the big picture’’.
After refining your energy body through the purification of sound in the fifth
chakra, the journey moves deeper into your inner world.
