The eyes have it

We are now at the penultimate chakra, the brow or third eye chakra, that, not surprisingly, can be found between the physical eyes on the brow bone.  This chakra is indigo in color and governs issues of intuition, imagination, dreaming and wisdom. Opening and expanding the third eye is a pursuit that leads to greater psychic abilities and a deeper connection with the divine.  Crystals that aid with brow chakra work are lapis lazuli, azurite and especially amethyst.  Hyacinth and violet are two scents associated with this chakra.  The brow chakra's element is that of light energy.   


A person with a balanced third eye chakra has a healthy sense of ego, presience, ability to learn and think creatively. Someone with an unbalanced third eye chakra can be short-sighted and prone to nightmares and learning difficulties.
