[lmt-post-modified-info]The third eye is known as the pineal gland. It is the Brow chakra that is present just above the center of the eyebrows.
It is a unique part of the body that holds great powers. The opening of the third eye creates many changes in your life. Its complete opening connects you to almost everything present in the universe.
Third Eye Definition/Meaning
The Third Eye is where we transcend the duality of being.
Our innate sense of “I” is separate from the rest of the universe, resulting from ego thinking. In truth, we are all at one with the universe.
Our sense of oneness comes from the activation of the Third Eye, which encompasses our higher senses. These are the spiritual senses that mirror the physical ones but exist at a higher vibration.
This is the chakra most associated with expanding perceptions of the nature of reality.
While it remains closed, we remain closed to the truth of the universe around us. As we open our Third Eye, we can begin to see what the ego hides from us.

Dangers Opening Your Third Eye:
The third eye is a very sensitive part of the body. It lets you see the unseen. Although the closed third eye places many negative impacts on the body, the forceful opening of the third eye comes with many risks.
You can open the third eye when you are in a low vibrational state, or without even balancing your other chakras.
When you are in a low vibrational state, opening the third eye is considered dangerous, since it allows you to see the unseen, maintaining the balance between what is real and what’s not will become a dilemma. You will inevitably fall into delusions.
Some have fallen victim to seeing beings from other dimensions. You see, we share our world with fourth-dimensional beings that we can’t see with our eyes. However, opening the third eye lets you see them and sense them too.
These beings around you aren’t always pleasant. That’s why you might hear someone say, ”they have opened their third eye and are seeing scary beings”.
Being in a high vibration state allows you to navigate the unseen without much hindrance, and other beings can’t invade your vibrational state without your permission.
Nightmares After Opening The Third Eye
Many people claim to have nightmares after opening the third eye. It is not unusual because dreams are part of the mind, and what you see with your third eye turns into dreams.
People often say they see demons. These nightmares don’t let them sleep properly at night.
Some people have reported nightmares so terrifying that they no longer sleep. So they avoid sleep as much as possible.
The above situation is one of the dangers of opening the third eye before the time is right.
So what can you do?
To avoid any of the negative experiences associated with the third eye awakening, experts recommend that you find a spiritual guide.
Also, ground yourself before delusions take over your life. Don’t rush into opening your third eye, be slow and steady, and go smoothly with the flow.
Otherwise, all the advantages of opening your third eye will turn into an unforgettable nightmare.
That is why the third eye awakening is called a “process” rather than an “event.” You don’t just open it and move on with your life. You begin a journey of preparation and move steadily along the path towards opening it.
If you go too quickly, it will be like emerging from a dark room into a brightly lit one. Your eyes have adjusted to the darkness, so when you emerge, it does not help you see – instead, it blinds you.
And what do you do when the light is too bright? You shut your eyes. Do not allow this to happen with your Third Eye, or all the work you have put in will be undone in an instant.
That’s why it is so important to have a spiritual guide. A guide knows this process and can help you to take it at the right pace.
They will protect you from your own eagerness and bring you into the light gradually. This is like allowing your eyes to adjust by opening the door a crack and letting a small amount of light in before you open the door completely.
A guide will also enhance the experience for you and help you to make the most of it.
There are parts of the journey that may not occur to you that they require extra thought and contemplation. But a guide, knowing the journey so well as they have guided others (and themselves) through it, will show you where your attention should lie.
Attempting to travel this world alone is needless. It is an example of ego thought. It does not take away from your experience to share it with someone else. It only enhances it.
How To Open Your Third Eye The Right Way
The first thing you should do is to set your intent.
Decide that your goal for this cycle in your life is to open your Third Eye. Then, take deliberate action to see that happen.
What actions should you take? Everybody’s journey is unique, but the same processes must occur.
It helps to start simple. Start keeping a dream journal and noting down any interesting thoughts and ideas you have about them.
Dreams are an excellent window into the unconscious mind, and it is the unconscious parts of your mind that need to become conscious for awakening to occur.
Meditation is a widely used tool in all chakra healing – and for a good reason.
It is time for you to shift your meditation focus towards your Third Eye and spiritual perception. Start gently and ramp up as you make progress.
As you master this, you can start to combine it with holotropic breathwork.
Breathing exercises help connect the various systems of your body and blend the physical, mental, and spiritual aspects. Breaking down the barriers between these aspects is essential for the sixth chakra.
Along the same lines, yoga can be an excellent step on this path. “Normal” yoga is effective, particularly child’s pose, which has you ground your brow with the Earth.
Kundalini yoga is very effective, especially those techniques which focus on the pineal gland.
Once you have settled into a good pattern with the above, start to adjust your diet.
Do not do this too quickly! Wholesale changes in your diet in a short period can upset your system more than it helps, so make changes gradually.
A balanced, nutritious diet is required for activation. Fruits, vegetables, and fresh greens contain most of the nutrients you need.
Many people say that they have had the most success with vegan diets, possibly because the body does not need to work as hard to gain nutrients from it.
Allow yourself to settle into this new way of living – it will only harm you to move on before you are ready.
You can start to step things up when you feel the time is right.
The natural way of doing this is with healing crystals and essential oils. You can supercharge your meditation and yogic practice by elevating them with crystals and essential oils aimed at your Third Eye.
Amethyst or lapis lazuli are excellent crystals, though anything in the purple family will work well.
The best essential oils for this purpose are lavender, white sage, and pine. Pick the one that suits your senses the best.
Lastly, if you feel that you aren’t making progress at any point in this process, you might benefit from a guide.
Many people offer support and guidance on this journey, and you would benefit from their wisdom and personalized advice based on your unique aura state and challenges.
They can also protect you from your own eagerness. We are all in danger of that, sometimes.
What are your thoughts on the third eye opening symptoms?
Can your third eye open and close on it’s own at random points in time because after reading this I can tell you I have been on both sides of the symptom list but I guess mine is closed. I never deliberately try to open my third eye just like I do not try to astral travel…it just happens. I may be imagining all of this but in my dreams I do things that are supernatural. I also do creative visualization in my meditations …What is reality anyway? In the matrix how can we really know what is real? I thought I was growing I guess I am delusional then.
An opened third eye, I see as one continuously focus and follow the intuition without resistance, which will now give way into reading meanings instinctively to other areas of life. Understanding from your spirit eye faculty.
Wondering if someone can tell me, why my vision of myself has changed. I see only darkness surrounding me. My face once transformed into a powerful lioness, now looks back at me in the mirror dark gray with black and reddish veins. Not sure what this means, but my aura seems darker now
I have siatica 7 vertebrates damaged in my back the pain has gone so something is happening thanks bless you
My son is struggling with all the physical symptoms suggested by a blocked 3rd eye – I am very new to all this information, he understands the third eye is responsible and all about chakras / balance / reiki
Our life has been chaos for a long time – he is delusional but says he is not – he believes he has special powers – he is Atlas supporting the world / can influence the world with his energies – weather etc
I have no idea how to help him and would be grateful for direction to advice and support
Hi Jean, this must be exhausting for you. The 3rd eye is particularly sensitive, and I would suggest forgetting this as an issue/reason right now.
I feel your son has an imbalance of chemicals in his brain and needs to see a doctor. Not to dumb him down, only just to correct his chemicals and see how he can adjust himself to the physical world. He needs grounding as well. He is living in the spiritual world, not our physical one. It is easy to go off the edge this way. We can dip our toes into the spiritual and even more if we are grounded, but I think your son is not. Please don’t hesitate to contact again; let us know how he is doing. Namaste
Watch him! Our son opened his, became delusional over the course of 7 days, then hung himself after researching “how to close your third eye”.! This IS NOT SOMETHING to mess with!!!
My third eye is open and I have seen amazing things but also horrific ones. A faceless women flowed me honest night for one so I understand the fear. I am so sorry for your loss but I think other things may have been going on. I feel as though he was not in touch with his guide or guides. I advise you to connect with yours.
I’m very sorry to hear that about your son. Truth I opened my third eye. I know what they are saying when they say to be careful. The power can feel overwhelming. For almost a whole month I can sense a big change in everything I was doing. I unknowingly found a woman who in a sense is a spiritual guide but is more than that. I still feel enlighten but I have stop progressing on my own because you can lose your mind. Well, I saw a post one time and it said you have to lose your human mind to gain spiritual powers. It’s true, I didn’t feel human anymore. I felt like I was something else, something powerful, so you can see some delusion. I decided I dont want that kind of power so I stop seeing the woman.
I am an alcoholic in recovery. I have been an alcoholic for a long time and in recovery for a lot less time. During my lifetime I have never before experienced the kind of withdrawal that I just went through in January. And I have been through it! But in January I was in the hospital to detox and I could feel something happen in my body. Something not normal. And it was as if a switch had been flipped inside of my brain. I alerted the hospital staff to inform them that I was hallucinating both auditory and visually. It was as if I was seeing not only our plane of existence but another as well. The things that I was seeing were interacting with the world them. And many of these things seemed to notice that I could indeed see them too. Whatever had happened to me lasted for the rest of that day. It was the single most terrifying sober day in my life. Is it possible that the alcohol withdrawal affected my pineal gland caused my third eye to open?
I am just making enquiries with opening your third eye I read that you will have negative simptoms when you open your third eye for e.g having headache …. how long do these side effects lasts.?? if you could give me an idea that would be great
Hey, Meryl.
It is super risky. People have been damaged badly and needed to be hospitalised. Let it happen naturally. That is the only safe way.
Namaste
can accidents or head trama cause the third eye to open not exatly sure how mine open. somtimes it seems like if i concentrate on something an dependin on how hard my music with go out of control. it dont have to be pluged in the wall so i dnt think it the eletricty here. its can be bluetooth or cell phone still does it. strange memories. an sometimesother strange things are seen or felt
I recently have a physical hole like between my brow..I am always rubbing there and have headaches..I went for a head scan but nothing was wrong with me..I have always been a person who see more in life than other…I fear that this is a third eye and I have no idea what to do..I struggle to sleep at night and feel like I sense presences sometimes..
My 3rd eye is open I actually widened it more
This may sound crazy but I when I get pain in my 3rd eye like you described I feel negative entities trying to take my energy or take control of my energy. I close mine then or cut the ties. At times its a struggle but once I do the pain is gone. Any pain I think of a white light shooting down on me and filling me to the point it shines out. If you struggle to vision this use a flashlight or cell light to help til you start seeing it on your own.

MY EMAIL:we don’t post personal emails.
I have been meditating and practicing with stones for a few months now and have been receiving biophoton therapy for over a year. I also use essential oils . Today I received my celestite stone and was meditatiing with it at my crown chakra also using my amethyst, clear quartz, and lapis lazuli. I could be crazy but.. when doing this I kept seeing like a rainbow of blue lights. They were strobe like or almost like a Helicopter. At one point I saw what looked like a dark figure that grew bigger . It scared me at first and then I accepted it . I also felt (almost like an ice cream headache) between my eyebrows . Again… It could just be my eyes playing tricks . I tried to recreate seeing it and I could not . Could I have opened my third eye?
I was dreaming last night and this happened to me. Yesterday, I’d been listening to a Tedtalk about remote viewing, I have no idea why, it just came on after another topic I had been listening to and it sounded interesting. So I was “goofing off” in my sleep and thinking of a friend, to see if I might visualize where she is. At first I saw a bright spec of blue between my eyes, it grew into what looked like a tangle of glowing blue thread. It got bigger and smaller and flickered for awhile. As this happened I could feel the pressure between my eyes and my eyes were fluttering. I felt very tense so I tried to relax, at which point it turned into a grey blob and then all of a sudden I very clearly saw a red brick building with black windows, a busy street below with something big and white. I’m too embarressed to ask my friend if this describes anywhere she’d been lately! I then decided to try and picture my son (who is at his grandparents) and while I didn’t see anything like a place, I did see some trippy stuff. It was like the fractal paintings you see at a festival – vibrant neon colours glowing through sacred-geometry like patterns, and I seemed to be travelling down a tunnel with glowing neon veins. At the very least, I feel like I understand those paintings now!
Hi I am fairly straight and done yoga 40 years. I ve seen tiny blue dots for years.
Yes it is possible. Watch for things that look normal but seem off. You won’t have sight immediately but you will notice a subconscious quality about some things or people that suggest they are not of our realm and vibrate at a different frequency. This is your first indicator
I have symptoms that you mention. I feel like everybody knows what I say and do
Ruran I feel the same but many are selfless and or clairvoyant so maybe they feel the divine link. Alot of East Indian people may know this art.
Anyways its a bt of a drag and I must get more positive as I move into 3rd eye use.
How to awaken the third eye naturally?
I am currently going through a confusing time thar is both physically and mentally demanding.Amazingly i have begun writing a book recently that is semi-biographical and self help.Odd things are happening ie. light sensitive – insightful dreams – in fact ! .I am even looking at an old (wonderful) car to buy that has a large single light centred in the grill between 2 single ones.Now if that ain’t a sign i’ll walk to China!.
And yes i to have witnessed alien space craft .They were like bright blue/green stars with a smaller red light oscillating around them.Although I have not (until now) told anybody about the mother ship which was alot closer to me and just had fixed red lights on it.Hey ! – why worry about it ?.It’s kinder cool having seen them and knowing we are not alone in the universe.Happy days !!.!P.S. I believe this phenomonon is only possible through the use of the third eye.
When my third eye opened I acquired the ability to photograph other dimensional beings . Like you said ‘ you become known to other worlds ‘ . The most important thing I learnt is that your THOUGHTS and FEELINGS determine what kind of ENERGY you attract and having FAITH and not fear , will always protect you .
When you say, “photograph other dimensional beings”, what do you mean by this? Can you give insight. My brother suffers from high vibrations and has been diagnosed. But, he fears his third eye opened. He sees a whole world he cannot explain how some creatures are terrifying but the details of buildings and modes of transportation are advanced. It’s like a black hole he says in his foresight, it’s always there. When he closes his eyes, he cannot escape. It’s surreal.
bright light, cells, implosion into subconscious, telepathy, feels like traversing through a mirror at times, spirits are drawn to me, orbs of light hover about when in deep thought, i do not meditate or try to do anything at any time, can see through metaphorical mask, feel like everything must be deciphered as all is spoken in metaphors and or idioms depending on who or what is involved, born november 22 at 6:06 i am the cusp of revolution, deep belief that their is a prophet at work although logically i believe i am losing my mind. please give insight.
I find the more aerobic exercise I do, I can feel that my Third Eye is awakening.
Sometimes I know something in advance as it were, like whether someone will be ok in a bad situation,or is going to meet a new partner soon, stuff like this.
Cant explain it more clearly…
Excuse me .
i really like to know more every thing and today i was trying to connect to universe but i failed.
I’m 17 years old and when i read the dangerous things about third eye i felt doubt about what to do.
Can someone help me how should i find some guidness?
You and I are on the same page then lol, I need help to!
THe problem is our mind is too flickering and it can dive into negative enegy and as well as positive energy without us knowing it. We have to learn how to control it.
And Im 17 too!!
I have very randomly just come across this article.. and it made very much sense to me! The pandemic sparked a change in me that I haven’t been able to deny…I have thought and felt this way the past year, I will have to read more into this 5th dimension of consciousness. Thank you for verifying that what I have been feeling is a thing.
You can start by connecting with your spiritual guides. To do this, it’s best to try after getting out of shower as they will be more likely to approach with a clean body and mind. While in the shower imagine all the negativity inside you and all unwanted energies attached to you going down the drain as they are cleared from your body. Once you are out of shower, dressed and in meditation state, picture a door in the distance….imagine a figure stepping from this door and acknowledging you as they appear closer. (this figure may appear as a man,woman, or just a bright light or ball of energy. After asking who they are, ask if they are of the light and if they are here for your highest good. They will have to tell you so if they aren’t you can thank them and tell them you wish to find someone else. You do not want to be rude as there are some pretty nasty entities in this realm and this is their realm which you have little power or experience in navigating. If you find someone introduce yourself and thank them. Ask if you can contact them again at another time and let them know you appreciate their help and time. Give your time to ground before opening your eyes.
