Sixth Chakra or Ajna

spirit of christmas The 6th chakra is intuitive and creative. It allows us to see beyond the visible world. We can understand what is not rational, understand non-verbal language, more subtle and invisible information. It reflects the practical sense, assertiveness, visualization, analysis of ideas aimed at understanding and creating reality, own and external. The Third Eye is the door to other planes.

When Ajna works harmoniously, we observe that the individual’s sensory and extrasensory perception widens, as well as improving their spirituality and connection with the Divinity; obtain ease of visualization, develop intuition and psychic abilities such as clairvoyance. On the contrary, the lack of balance in the 6th indicates a person who lives and expresses themselves only from reason, who only believes in what they know and understand, distorting experiences of another kind. The subject tries to invalidate the beliefs of others and impose theirs, for their own benefit.

The low energy in Ajna, causes a growing distancing from spirituality, desire exacerbated by all material, loss of calm in situations of great demand and harmful emotional patterns. Blockages in the sixth chakra point towards subjects who lose their perception of themselves, and are disoriented when making value judgments, about experiences or people. This can also manifest itself as an altered perception of reality, which makes the individual the protagonist of negative fantasies that they consider the truth.

Reactivating the sixth chakra

To purify and reactivate Ajna, specialists recommend observing the night sky, and visualizing indigo objects (Ajna’s main tone). Another option to complement the cleaning process is the vocalization of the KSHAM mantra, related to the 6th chakra vibration.

Harmonization of the sixth chakra or Ajna

We regularly let our mind rest, for example by the practice of contemplation and meditation. We identify all negative ideas that discredit us, those we inherited as those we generate. We know how to judiciously extract most of the life lessons we have received and sow in our subconscious the seed of calmness. We aim to increase our well-being and see happiness as an achievable goal. Day after day, we understand that the best choices for us are within our reach.

We cultivate our physical and emotional autonomy while showing selflessness, offering the best of our experience to assist others and helping those who ask for it. Our theoretical knowledge now applies to our everyday life. We choose what promotes our well-being and our health.
