The winds of grace are blowing all the time. You have only to raise your sail.
Sri Ramakrishna

Ajna Chakra – Third Eye
Purpose: Generates Intuition & Inner Wisdom
Energy: Soul
Element: Light
Location: In between the eyebrows
Color Association: Indigo
Embraces: Self-Awareness
Spiritual Lesson: Material Detachment/Open-mindedness
Statement: I See
Anja Chakra located in between the eyebrows is often referred to as the Third Eye. When this chakra opens it is like a gateway allowing divine wisdom to enter our minds. Like the wind it is always there waiting, all you have to do is allow it to flow.
The symbol of OM in the center of the chakra represents the unleashed energy of the Kundulini Snake rising upward. The crescent moon of feminine receptivity embraces the circle above it. This circle is a golden dot which is the essence of spiritual energy. It represents being in your center. When we chant the mantra “OM” we are embracing all of this universal divine energy, OM brings the ego self into union with the spirit self.
It’s not what you look at that matters, it’s what you see.
Henry David Thoreau

The Ajna chakra opens us up to our highest intelligence which is a distinct balance between our intellect (our thinking mind) and our intuition (our feeling mind).
When the the ego realizes that the fulfillment of its highest dreams is only to be found through merging with the Higher Self, the false masks the ego has created fall away and who you thought you were or who you thought you ought to be lose their grip. What we see is made up of all we were told is good, bad, ugly or beautiful thoughout our life. Our third eye opens us up to our own inner guidance which may or may not agree with all we have learned. When the third eye opens, you allow your true self, with all its individual thoughts and feelings, to shine forth. So Hum, ” I am what I am” There is no guilt, no need for illusion or pretense. You are totally in the present and you realize that the you you have been seeking or trying to change into something or someone else has been there, in complete perfection, all along.
Trust yourself. You know more than you think you do.
Benjamin Spock
