By tuning into our third eye we can connect very powerfully with our surroundings. Our auric power can be channelled and extended through our third eye.
Perhaps you are already using your third eye powerfully? Here’s how to tell if your third eye is already open and communicating magically with others.
What is the third eye?
The third eye is directly between our eyes along the line of the brow. This area of the forehead is where the pineal gland is located.
The pineal gland ordinates our circadian rhythms which are our natural sleep and wakening timings. The pineal gland also perceives darkness and creates a hormone to induce sleep.
This third eye on our foreheads works with the cycles of light and dark, helping regulate our bodies.
Beyond the Western world, the third eye has been linked to psychic abiilty, wisdom, and enlightenment.
How to perceive the third eye
If you place your forefinger lightly between your eyebrows you may notice a sensitivity at this point. Also known as the Ajna Chakra, Hindu women customarily mark the point of the third eye. This mark, adornment and decoration is called the ‘bindi’.
Focusing daily attention on the third eye trains us to remember to be aware of it. Wearing a bindi is said to enhance our intuition and perception and also helps protect.
Without wearing a bindi, taking the time to touch and remember the third eye helps us begin to integrate this energy more.

What can the third eye do?
The third eye allows us a deeper inner perception. Whilst we recognise with our eyes, we also gauge our environment on a deeper level. You may enter a room which looks as you expect, but it may feel different from this.
Your entire aura and all of your chakras may be aware when energy is off. Your third eye will be able to interact and respond to this awareness.
The third eye helps us to be more telepathic and connect more deeply to other people and animals.
By developing your third eye you can also extend your aura and connect to people at distance.
Auric extension
The Aura is an energy field which can be seen as light, surrounding all living beings. Our main seven chakras (there are more) directly feed into our auric energy. The more light each chakra emits, the more powerful our aura will feel.
The more psychically and energetically aware we are, the more we may use our aura to interact with our environment.
It is said that our auric energy is infinite and is connected to ~all that is~. When viewing a person’s aura though, there will seem to be a shape. A bit like viewing heat on infra red.
The third eye, the ajna chakra, acts like another eye in our aura. When we focus the energy from our third eye, our aura can extend out and touch other energy fields.
Have you ever had the feeling you are being watched? Then when you look around there is somebody staring at you?
This is what it feels like when somebody has extended their energy field through their third eye to reach and interact with your aura.
You may even feel this when somebody thinks of you. For instance you think of somebody and then you receive a text from them. This is the infinite energetic perception of their third eye extending to touch your energy.
Our animal instincts
Humans are animals and our circadian rhythms helped us to survive in earlier times. Without electric lights and other home comforts our bodies would naturally sleep when it was dark.
This is why we feel more tired in the Winter. Our circadian rhythms are still indicating to us that we should be sleeping whilst it is dark. Although electric lights may overpower this instinct, we should sleep more in Winter.
Observing animals in the wild helps us to link in more with our own third eye energy. They are fully in touch with their instincts. They can sense when it will rain, when there may be danger and they will often eat more before a cold spell.
We still have the ability to tune into all of these things, we are simply out of practise.
Trying to telepathically communicate with animals, even insects, can develop the third eye. Remember to picture what you are trying to convey. Thinking in words will only help you link with your pets. Thinking in visuals or other senses will help all animals understand you more easily.

If your third eye is open
You will be the person who thinks of somebody just before you see them, or receive a message from them.
When you look a person or animal they will tend to turn around quickly, as they can feel your eyes.
You may be able to transmit thoughts and information to people easily too. Trying sending a telepathic message to somebody close. It will help if their third eye also, to be able to receive your communication.
Some people will feel energy keenly even if they don’t believe it is possible to do so! You could consider developing a fun telepathy practise with somebody, to build your abilities.
Remember that you need to stay in balance to perceive optimally, through your third eye. We all experience times in life where we are worrying or overthinking. Chaotic thought completely blocks perception however.
Being more in tune
To be fully in tune with the third eye energy you need to be present. In the moment.
Now.
Your mobile phone and having notifications interrupting your peace will counter your intuition. Light emitting from screens can contribute to blocking the third eye.
Being in natural light and in connection to your surroundings helps to reconnect again. Practicing third eye skills with animals and other people can help to develop this.
Trying to extend your third eye energy to see if another turns around can be fun too. Remember to be in a safe environment to do this though. It’s fun to try this from vehicles, not on another person in the vehicle.
It is important to ensure that you don’t connect to energy that you need to protect yourself from.

Protecting the self
There are some damaged people in the world. Most of us are a little damaged, but some have had very very difficult lives.
This can cause them to be angry, scared, and even dangerous.
Remember humans are animals and using our third eye energy is part of our animal nature. We’ve all seen an animal when they attack for food, competition or self preservation.
Sometimes people who feel trapped or hurt may react in an animal way to third eye energy. This is rare, but possible.
Hence it’s important to practice ‘covering’ the third eye also. Learning how to extend the energy and then to mask it.
Covering the third eye is as simple as imagining that it is covered. there is no practice required, it’s just good to know that if you feel that your energy is a little too powerful. Cover it.
If you are in a room and you’re standing out more than you wish. Cover your energy.
Very attractive people have to learn this too. Marilyn Monroe was said to be a genius at shifting between a massive aura and then quietening down so others barely noticed her.
Shapeshifting is all in the mind and You are so much more powerful than you know!
Embrace your inner magic.
Reiki blessings.
