20 clues the third eye is opening

You may hear about the existence of a third eye. It is common to ask how to know this opens or how to awaken the third eye. 

The ego mind tells you obstacles exist and you must remove them. As you begin to see through your conditioned beliefs, awareness of something beyond them grows. The impression it is opening is a letting go of limited perceptions.  This is about awakening to the true nature of existence. To deepen levels of consciousness is to recognize the third eye is always open.  

The third eye is also known as the sixth chakra or pineal gland.  As you release levels of resistance and fear, your sense of life expands, notice the chakras and their energy, and attune more closely to layers of what is real.  You begin to see through the ego mind's translation of energy and grow aware of pure love energy.  Consider clues to suggest innersight exists now;

1) Your begin to recognize the nature of the space-time mirror that creates duality (At the core, you are the energy of Spirit translated into a linear time stream)

2) You access deeper clarity, deeper insight into life events

3) You know without a doubt what is real and unreal

4) You know you are never alone (oversoul is ever-present)

5) You see more levels of the game of physicality (12 dimensions)

6) You are aware everything is energy vibration or rhythm

7) You know you are Source energy and are aware of immortality

8) You feel things that are not physically discernable

9) You access heightened sensitivity

10) You feel your only purpose is to discover who you are

11) You sense pulsating light waves

12) You no longer see pure blackness when you close eyelids

13) You grow increasingly fearless (not foolhardy)

14) Your meditation experience expands to sense light energy

15) You perceive light moving & expanding through the body

16) Your perspective reverts to that of a detached witness

17) You talk less, listen more and realize you know nothing

18) You notice consciousness expand & seeking identity loses importance

19) Competitive & negative emotion no longer control you

20) You begin to feel oneness or inter-connectedness to all things

Share your own sense of what is unfolding within.  What does it feel like to have perceived boundaries and difference to be falling away? Is this the revelation that the divine eye is open and increasingly unobstructed?

Excellent, thanks for sharing.

Hi Liara,

One will know that the third eye is open when it stares back at them and winks. LOL.

It is not just a visual sensation, it can also be an audio message, which I still refer to as third eye-ish. All and all, it is a very non word defining experience.

[Liara Covert]

Mark , indeed the physical senses are limiting. Direct experience of all sorts invites one to trust what the heart knows. The mind would have you believe the third eye requires opening, that you must do something to "see" what awareness feels right here and now. Consider the possibility the third eye is always open and you either allow yourself to see clearly or block the view. Silence reveals all.

[Liara Covert]

Alexys, as you highlight, experience often defies words and lifts the energy being within beyond the limitations of conditioned senses. As you gain insight into expansion, you do so in silence. The real you is multi-dimensional, multi-sensual and all-knowing. To move beyond fear is liberating. This sensation lifts you up and blows you into oblivion through the initiative of the heart centre. As people question where they are and what they may be experiencing, the inner self knows. As one gains faith, one puts it all into context. Thanks for inspiring visitors here to expand. You are a timeless blessing.

As some people polarize the third eye, they may feel increasingly introverted and choose to keep more and more to themselves. This is completely natural as one turns inward. Dialogue grows more telepathic.

[Berndt]

You can see beneath the Surface.
You can see that life is a dream filled with symbols and metaphors.
You can read between the lines.
You can reacess and change your point of view easily.
You are becoming more empathetic and compassionate.
You can bring light to the shadows.
You can reinterpret the past.
You can project a future.

[Liara Covert]

Berndt, extra sensory perception (ESP) is often felt to reveal a baseline for energetic expansion. As one realizes one is vortex of energy, one amplifies what already is. Intuition heightens as one is more consciously aware of what one can naturally tune into. The process of remembering means awakening to what you are without fear. Love fearlessly and illusions of limitation fall away.

N, every human being is on the Path and is actually the Path itself. Being open to deeper awareness expands the senses and allows one to trust what cannot be explained. Duality can also seem to dissolve yet it does not really exist. The mind simply thinks it does.

Nice list. "You talk less, listen more and realize you know nothing." That was a strange one for me, having relied most of my life on intellect. Not-knowing is powerfully transforming.

[Liara Covert]

Kaushik, accepting the 'not knowing' enables each moment to feel fresh and new.

[Max Coutinho]

Hi again,

So true. I began experiencing most of these 20 items when I was 17 - it is true that we do talk less, listen more and realise we know nothing (compared to what is out there).
I would only add one item to the list: we begin to have glimpses of the future (that when developed through meditation can turn into clairvoyance).

Excellent, darling :D!

Cheers

Max, the curious thing is time as humans are conditioned to understand it, dissolves. One becomes able to sense into time continuums which take form as possibilities. Its as if the inner eye is an energetic movie camera that zooms in on various possibilities and then zooms out to bring one back into moment. All happens simultaneously. You emit and attract energy to invite certain experiences. You gain insight into the inner power human beings selectively forget and have the potential to re-open.

[Max Coutinho]

Liara,

Again, I have to agree with you: time is a much different concept than the one humans grasp.
For example, when using divination tools (which require the third eye to be open) time seems not to exist. When one sees the past, it can mean our "present past" or a previous life. When one see the future, it can be one minute from now, or 10 years or even the next life (although the latter is much rarer).

Time...time is not real.

[Rachael]

It's just knowing that all is as it should be. No longer letting fear control your life. You notice the colours and smells that surround you everyday and have a feeling of complete oneness with all living things. When l meditate l can actually feel the energy moving through me.

[S.F.]

I experience the lack of blackness when my eyes are shut.

[Lucky]

Third eye !! Is it possible ? Why does the science not recognize it officially anywhere ? Why I dont see my third eye , after great deal of meditation , although I do feel vibrations some times ?

[Liara Covert]

Rachael, appreciate this sharing. Love how you invite letting go of bliefs and fears imagined into being by the limited physical senses and the conditioned mind. The third eye is like an invitation to see beyond everything you are taught. See what is always here, whether you choose to see it or not.

[Liara Covert]

S.F., pure light can be blinding.

[Liara Covert]

Lucky, the conditioned mind blocks what exists beyond its scope. Ingrained beliefs are powerful obstacles to seeing clearly. To observe the mind is not to eliminate thought. It is to cease to be controlled by doubt and fear. You only "see" what you are willing to accept without external validation. Recall Rumi who says," Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.” Let go of those. Only the truth remains.
