I’ve decided to document the journey of unblocking my third eye. Recently I’ve wanted to unblock the chakra so I can connect with spiritual communication, divine energy, the spiritual world, and get my dreams back. First let’s talk a little about the chakra.
Your third eye is located between your eyebrows and is associated with out of body experiences, like dreams and astral travel, the ability to read auras, and clairvoyance. The color associated with the third eye chakra is the color blue/indigo.
What made me want to unblock/focus on my third eye?
What truly urged me to unblock and focus my attention on my third eye was the fact that I haven’t dreamt in about 3-4 years, when I used to dream frequently and vividly. When I had these dreams they were very much out of body experiences. Now I don’t dream and when I think I do I cannot remember anything or I just remember one thing, just one clip. So this is originally what kickstarted me wanting to unblock the chakra but now that I have learned more about it I want to be able to communicate with my spirit guides and be open to receiving knowledge and wisdom.

This was the day I decided to meditate in hopes of connecting with my third eye. I sat on my yoga mat criss cross applesauce and followed a guided meditation I will link below. During the meditation I saw flashes of blues and indigo which to me was good sign that I was connecting with my third eye. (This was the first time I have seen color while meditating and it was mind-blowing) On this day I also journaled about my experience meditating and my goals for opening the chakra.

This day I did so much research on the third eye and how to unblock it, signs that it is blocked and signs that it is not blocked. I learned that photosensitivity is a sign your chakra is unblocked, so if you are sensitive to light sometimes, good job! I also made an appointment to have my energy cleansed at my local metaphysical shop. Lastly, I searched up herbs that were associated with the third eye and help with dream recall, I found that jasmine, butterfly pea, and mugwort are all amazing herbs for this purpose.

I went to the crystal store and found out mugwort is illegal in my state! Oops. Instead I got butterfly pea and jasmine which I brewed into me tea later. (Fun fact it turns blue and with a little lime it turns indigo.)
I had the energy cleansing session. She had me lay down on a table that had an infrared mat underneath which was used to draw out negative energy. She had me lay on my back with my palms up, and instructed me to focus on my breathing. She then cleansed me with a stick of selenite and let me meditate for 15 minutes. While I was laying down she placed crystals on my solar plexus and sacral chakra points. She wrote notes as I focused on releasing negative energy and blockages and breathed in new opportunities, happiness, and energy. During the meditation, towards the very end I saw these rings of lime green that folded into smaller dots before doing it all over again. She then had me sit up and gave me notes on which chakras were blocked/closed.
She then told me that my sacral chakra, solar plexus, and throat chakra are all blocked. She told me to stretch my hips in the morning for my sacral chakra, to stand outside barefoot in grass in the sunlight to open up the solar plexus, and to say affirmation aloud morning and night to open up my throat chakra. She also said she saw my aura as a green/teal color which was super interesting because I saw lime green!
She went in detail about the throat chakra and how it works hand in hand with the third eye chakra because if your throat is clogged how do you expect to receive communication from the divine. I also told her about my dreams and how I wanted to get them back, she said that was a slow process and it happened to her! She told me to place clear quartz and lapis under my pillow, which I will be doing tonight and I will also place the herbs butterfly pea and jasmine under my pillow too.

After everything I did, I woke up and the only thing that truly resonated with me was the color mint green, but hey it’s something.
7-15-2022
I’ve been drinking my tea morning and night now and keep my herbs in my pillow case and crystals under my pillow. Before I go to sleep, I light an incense most days but sometimes I don’t because incense are expensive… hello. This night I went to sleep doing a meditation with a clear quartz and lapis crystal on my third eye chakra. I woke up and did not remember anything from the night prior.
7-16-2022
I kind of remember seeing a friend of mine briefly, but it was very quick and I don’t remember much else.
7-17-2022
I woke up and did not remember anything, but I had a session at my local crystal store where a sound bath took place, so I cam excited to see if that stimulates anything tonight. During the sound bath she played the singing bowl for the throat chakra a lot which might boost something, and while I was meditating I saw this more purpley indigo color and sploshes of lime green. I also bought lepidolite which is great for the third eye and I bought some other crystals I will cleanse and set intentions with. Crossing my fingers for something new tonight!

Well, it’s been a while, and honestly an immense amount of things and change has happened. I moved into my college dorm, moved from Louisiana to Connecticut, and well I had my first dream in about 4 years. Over the last two months I haven’t really done anything. I have been so busy I stopped meditating and doing my yoga. I drank some tea here and there but I haven’t journaled either. I hadn’t connected with my crystals or followed the lunar cycle. Basically I stopped everything and became a mess. Now as I am typing I am trying to realize what changed? I mean I stopped doing everything I was doing, so I shouldn’t have had a dream, right? Wrong. I woke up this morning after dreaming about an abusive relationship (yeah it was a crappy first dream) and I remembered the whole thing clearly and vividly. Now yesterday night was the full moon in Pisces and I am a Scorpio, so I may have connected with the water sign and lunar cycle. I also recently have been in the sun more and have released the energy through my sacral chakra. I believe there was stagnant energy there and I have recently gotten into a relationship and have released the energy. Being away from home, I believe I have been able to speak my mind more freely and I have not been talked over or had my voice lessened by those around me. This leads me to believe that I have unblocked my chakras maybe not fully, but at least enough to where my body was working harmoniously in a way that allowed me to connect to the spiritual realm and with my spiritual guides. I think my dream may have been influenced by a phone call I had that day regarding the abusive relationship. Now, I am not ecstatic about the dream I had, but I am so happy that I had a dream and I am hoping I can have more dreams consistently.
