4 Signs Your Third Eye Is Open
№1 You Feel A Strong Sense of Purpose
The Third Eye (or Ajna) is said to be the sixth chakra in the body. It is in the middle of the forehead and assists with perception and spiritual communication. Activating this chakra is imperative because it is associated with intuition and spiritual discernment, unlocks higher wisdom and magic, and aids self-awareness.
Below, I list a few signs your third eye is opening.
№1 You Feel A Strong Sense of Purpose
Once your third eye is open, you feel a strong sense of purpose. You know there is more to you than skin, bones, and a mundane existence. Everyone seems to be on autopilot, but you feel connected to something greater. As your third eye develops, you tap into new energies and frequencies you’ve never experienced. These new vibrations pull you closer to oneness with the Universe. As this occurs, you resonate less with the things of the world as it becomes background noise — and you become the observer.
№2 You Have Strong Intuition
When your third eye is open, you observe what others can not see. Those with an active third eye have an outstanding ability to read between the lines. It doesn’t matter how many people believe in something; your intuitive senses and discernment kick in. You are likely a lone wolf, a black sheep, or someone who refuses to follow the herd. People may not understand you because you see things as they are, are an expert at spotting illusions, and often get a ‘gut feeling’ about people, places, or situations. When the third eye is activated, it becomes nearly impossible to bypass the gut feelings. If you attempt to ignore the message from your higher self, the nagging feeling will continue until you make peace with the information.
№3 You Receive Spiritual Downloads
Those with an active third eye have an open line of communication with the spiritual realms and may receive spiritual downloads often. They may manifest through dreams, visions, clear hearing, or an intense inner knowing. You may also see bright colors and patterns during meditation. I sometimes see colorful images of people, places, or things with my eyes closed. The color patterns were initially alarming because it seemed like a psychedelic experience, yet I was completely sober. When the third eye is activated, you must prepare for the unexplainable and unimaginable.
No 4 You May Feel Detached From Everything
When your third eye opens, you will initially feel connected to everything and full of love. You will feel lighter and more compassionate towards humans, animals, and nature. Then (without warning), you may enter this space of repulsion. You will feel completely disconnected from humans and find it challenging to resonate. You might even state, “I do not understand humans! Why are they like this? I only want to hang around cats and trees!” When this happened, I was alarmed, “What happened to the peace and love I had the day before?” I allowed those emotions to flow through me but used it as a healing opportunity.
As I began to heal in a few areas, I felt my heart expanding, but this sense of limbo appears to be a part of my spiritual rebirth journey. We must understand and accept that everything (the good, bad, and the ugly) is for our growth and development. Humans tend to praise the good but detest the bad, and that mindset is one of the biggest hurdles for spiritual evolution. Thank you for reading, love, Ari.
