The Sanskrit name for the third eye chakra is Ajna which means “perceive,” “command” or “authority”.

The third eye chakra is located between the eyebrows.

It is associated with the light element and the color indigo, which is the color of wisdom and inner knowledge, it encourages the transformation of energies from the lower chakras into higher spiritual vibrations.

The third eye chakra rules over imagination, memory, and psychic wisdom. It governs your intuition and controls the ability to see the bigger picture. You might think of it as the eye of your soul, it allows you to see what is hidden from physical realm.

When your Ajna is balanced, you trust your intuition, have good vision, great memory; you understand the inner and outer worlds. There is wisdom within you, and you trust your inner knowledge.

When your third eye chakra is blocked you are fearful, uncertain, indecisive. You might have problems with your memory.
