The Third Eye Chakra, also known as Ajna, is where sight meets knowing—where what we see and what we perceive converge. Sitting between the brows, this chakra governs our intuition, clarity, vision, and inner wisdom. But let’s get one thing straight—this isn’t about being ‘psychic’ in the pop-culture sense. This is about peeling back the layers of illusion, seeing beyond what is presented, and accessing a deeper, more truthful understanding of ourselves and the world around us.
The Duality of the Third Eye: Illusion vs. Truth
For many, this chakra is blocked by illusion—the illusions of identity, of what’s real, of what we think we know. We are conditioned to believe certain things about life, about ourselves, and about the world around us. But what if those perceptions were never really ours? What if they were inherited, imposed, or absorbed unconsciously?
Awakening the Third Eye is about deconstructing the stories we've been told and rewriting them with our own truth. It’s about peeling back the veil and seeing what’s really there, rather than what we’ve been taught to see.
When this chakra is imbalanced, we may experience:
🔹 Confusion & self-doubt – struggling to trust our intuition or make decisions.
🔹 Overactive imagination – lost in fantasy, struggling to ground in reality.
🔹 Mental fog & lack of clarity – feeling like we can’t ‘see’ our next steps clearly.
🔹 Mistrust in oneself & others – unable to decipher what is real and what is deception.
🔹 Nightmares & disrupted sleep – the subconscious trying to process what the conscious mind refuses to see.
When this chakra is balanced, we experience:
✨ Clear intuition – an ability to ‘just know’ without needing external validation.
✨ Heightened perception – seeing the deeper truths beneath people, situations, and experiences.
✨ Confidence in decision-making – trusting your instincts without second-guessing.
✨ Connection to the bigger picture – an awareness of your own path beyond the distractions of daily life.
The Third Eye in the Context of Ascension & 2025 Energies
We are in a 9-year of completion, the end of a cycle, and Pluto’s transit into Aquarius is asking us to let go of outdated paradigms and start seeing with radical truth.
This is not a time for following blindly. It is a time to question, to tune in, and to listen deeply. If you have been feeling more emotionally raw, more uncertain, more unsettled—this is your Third Eye trying to clear the illusions and allow you to step into deeper knowing.
We are being pushed to wake up and see beyond the matrix—but the question is, are you ready?
Ways to Work with your Third Eye
🔮 Meditate on deep blue or indigo light – visualize it radiating from the space between your brows.
🌀 Journaling prompt: Where in my life am I being asked to see more clearly?
💎 Crystals for support: Amethyst, Lapis Lazuli, Sodalite.
💨 Breathwork: Focused breath retention can help activate this centre and remove mental fog.
🖤 Decalcify the pineal gland – reduce fluoride, eat whole foods, get plenty of sunlight.
So... are you seeing or just looking?
The Third Eye doesn’t ‘turn on’ like a switch—it reveals itself in layers, just as you are ready to receive it. Are you willing to question what you’ve been taught? To see beyond the surface? To trust what you feel rather than what you’re told?
Because once you open your eyes to truth, there’s no going back.
