What is the Third Eye?
The Third Eye is a natural part of every person, but it’s a “meta” organ. In other words: it consists of all the senses and mind working together as a larger more powerful sensory organ. The Third Eye is a very clever bit of natural evolution: a meta organ designed to sense, connect to patterns and then relay that data back in overlays of information on top of your other senses.
Once opened it’s a very powerful ability, powerful enough that it literally can drive people insane if not understood, accepted or developed correctly. Also due to lack of understanding more people than not mislabel, run away from the ability or take it to strange descriptions… which further muck and murk the waters of what the Third Eye truly is.
The Third Eye as a sense can be used in many different ways. It opens up our senses to patterns around us. It’s used by seers to make connections and answer questions. It’s used by energy workers to feel the energy and then manipulate that energy. It’s part of empathy where a person can touch and feel the emotions of others. Many other applications exist for how people have used the Third Eye.
Let’s look at one use. It’s possible to use the Third Eye to learn how to sense and visually interpret energy around us. This helps people work with the process of Motion, Activity and Interchange more easily and completely. Energy instead of being abstract concept then becomes a tangible property of life to work with once you learn how to sense it and interact with it.
The Third Eye and Energy Work
Does a Taoist really see energy? Not directly. Anyone can see the end results of energy in action, seeing energy directly is another thing all together. However, the Third Eye can develop the ability to process information and then overlay that information over our other senses in such a way we can then interpret and interact with energy in a more precise manner. In this way, we can “see” energy.
This can appear as being a mystical power due to the relative nature of the skill. But it’s a very real and tangible skill.
Some people do take this and go too far, make it fantasy. So you do need to be careful with people saying they are energy workers. Another problem is the relative nature of the skill. What one energy worker will sense, is different than another energy worker. Some commonalities exist. We are human, and our form, our shape help push us towards common baselines. However, the unique experiences and nature of each person also ensures that each energy worker will see things from a different angle.
Lets use Aura’s as an example.
Some people do see an “aura” or “light”. With training many people can be taught how to view aura’s in a “standard way”.
However: it’s not what most people think it is. Your eyes only “see” what they are designed to see. But the mind can overlay additional information over each sense. Auras are such an information overlay.
The brain has the ability to process visual information, and it has the ability to use all that circuitry to pump back information in the form of visual response: which doesn’t have to be from the eyes.
Your whole neural network, your mind and sense organs form a larger more sensitive “antenna” to pick up on energy and patterns. The mind then has the problem of how to send that information back to you. It has to use what it already has access to: the 5 normal senses. For example: at times in energy work, it can send back the images for you as an “aura” to then interpret. In reality what you are seeing is slightly different than that: but it’s the best method the “third eye” has to relay the information back to you. This becomes the “aura” as the translated result.
Developing the Third Eye
Because so much of this depends on your ability to interpret the results: this creates lots of room for mis-translation between the “facts” and what your third eye returns to you. Also because we see things differently, it can be problematic to exchange the information back and forth between each other in a clear fashion. This opens up quite a bit of room for mystical practices to open up within. Some truly work, others which might vary from person to person in how they tune the 3rd Eye sense, and others such as tricksters to use for deception.
Taoist practice has quite a bit of training regarding how to use and work with the Third Eye. It’s a real sense, but it’s a “meta” sense and it must be “used and tuned” in order to be developed, rather than it being something that just works out of the box of birth.
As a Taoist I have been developing my third eye since I was 5 or 6 years old and had my first vision. When I shared my first vision, I discover immediately, most people don’t see the world in this fashion. Even worse, I was persecuted when sharing this ability. Being so young, I quickly learned to keep it to myself and explore it silently and patiently on my own terms. Until recently I haven’t opened up on this part of my Taoist practice, on purpose, since it’s so easily mis-understood and so many misconceptions exist about this ability.
I have spent 35 years exploring this ability, reviewing materials, and using my background in both Taoism and the sciences to understand it. I have now placed the 3rd Eye into terms which can be acceptable to most everyone. So hence, I am now sharing it in my teachings.
Many people naturally suppress this ability to prevent it from hurting them, to prevent others from making fun of them or labeling them as crazy. With enough suppression any ability goes away. The Third Eye must be used in order for it work. Also how one uses the Third Eye will shape the abilities and capabilities of what it will be able to sense. For all of these reasons and more, this why the Third Eye is such a mysterious ability.
Many different cultures use many varied techniques to develop this skill. Taoists are very patient, taking decades in order to refine and define this ability. The nature of the interpretive aspects of this ability means experience helps improve this ability and it’s a slow process to master.
Teaching the Third Eye and Energy Work
It’s time to begin helping others sort it out and in that find a greater sense of self peace.
The Third Eye is not some magical power, it’s a part of our human nature which anyone with time, patience, training and acceptance of their nature can use. All too often people rush ahead and their own inner unbalance disrupts and skews the third eye ability with bad habits and false perceptions.
I do teach others how to access the third eye, but be aware this ability isn’t rushed but rather grown into over time.
I offer special Inner Vision retreats and Third Eye Classes on the Big Island of Hawaii for those wishing to learning how to use their third eye in a balanced and healthy environment. These retreats are geared to resolve fears, train a person with safe but powerful techniques and open up a path that reveals the potential of life with grace.

Hello there, my name is espy and I have been very interested with this ‘third eye’ and I have heard by a few companions that it only takes 4 days to open the third eye, so I was wondering if you could give me a little 1-on-1 lecture through emailing on the third eye. I was also wondering what the third eye does. A few co-workers have told me that with the third eye you can secretly put someone under hypnosis without them knowing. They also told me that with the third eye you can feel people’s emotions. An example would be like, talking to your friend and they might kind of like you and with the third eye you can tell if that person really likes you or not. Please email me at espychavez@yahoo.com I would like to have a nice lesson on the third eye. Also, I have many questions on the third eye that I hope can be answered. Thank you very much, and I will be waiting for a response.
Sincerely,
Espy Chavez
@Espy :
The third eye represents potential not reality, this means it takes many years to learn how to interpret that potential. All too many people try to make potential real, too fast without proper depth nor training, and in that all too many people push themselves towards delusions or being crazy.
More people than not, unconsciously fear this type of result, so many people only dabble and not go too far
But to go deeper isn’t a clear nor simple path, and one that requires great patience and deeper balance to maintain perspective
Peace and patience in your own exploration of potential. I’m not taking new students currently.
Take time in your own personal practices, that balance the mind, spirit and body. The first step is living a balanced lifestyle and have a set of practices that help you find personal peace. Doing this is usually a 10 years journey in itself before going deeper in the practice of actually learning the third eye.
I have a question. I heard that opening your third eye has consequences. Like if your self-esteem or confidence is not high enough, you can “visit dimensions” that can terrify you. Can anyone give me information on this? I learned about the third eye a couple days ago and am very intrigued and want to open mine. I am into the paranormal stuff and think this would be interesting to experience. Thanks!
@Sophie:
Take time in your own personal practices: first explore Yoga or Qi gong or tai chi or a martial art. This will help balance the mind, spirit and body. The first step of working with the third eye is actually living a balanced lifestyle and have a set of practices that help you find personal peace. Doing this is usually a 10 year journey in itself before going deeper in a practice of actually developing the third eye.
The first step of learning the third eye is personal grounding.
If you do this, your journey into the third eye will be meaningful and worthwhile. If you rush into the third eye as only paranormal, then you will twist the perception of what the third eye is to unhealthy directions.
The third eye is very very normal… it’s when people push it to be something beyond normal that it gets a person into problems.
What you can do and not do with the third eye depends quite a bit on your training. Different teachings will claim many things and many things claimed about the third eye are not real also. I don’t sort all that out for people here. This page is merely a simple introduction to help people find a grounded starting point to consider the topic with.
Considering that the million dollar prize from the amazing Randi to prove any of the more outstanding claims about the third eye abilities has yet to be claimed, I would say it’s best to approach this subject with a bit of caution regarding any of the more amazing claims.

Is there a way to use your third eye without sensing spiritual energies? Ever since I first practiced using the third eye, I’ve had such a keen sense for the paranormal. I could never see auras as well as my sister or friends (maybe because I have bad eye sight in general? lol), but I could always sense different energies. Sometimes they would be really peaceful and warm, and then I would feel a dark energy. Like an angry spirit who wanted revenge. And I could feel that they sensed me too. I would try my best to get out of that stage, and it would work for a little bit, but it would always come back and I feel them again. I’ve never spoken to or have seen a spirit, more than likely because I don’t want to. But I still want to practice the third eye. So, I guess I’m asking..is there a way to use the third eye, but not attract spirits? The anger, and unfairness I felt in those spirits were terrible. I have mastered turning off my third eye. Using the third eye uses concentration, so I thought if I distract myself with rapid thoughts or playing piano even, it will tune out. And it worked. Anywho, my question is there. I’ve gone on long enough. lol.
@Josh: the third eye is all about potential and how one interacts with potential is a spiritual choice of how one moves in their life. So to answer your question, the third eye and spiritual energy are inter-connected.
IN regards to you specific question regarding interacting with spiritual beings. I cannot help you there as that crosses over into training. No simple answer I give you here would suffice, it’s a more complicated answer based on your nature and how you hold faith in the world.
I can think of a dozen different ways that I could answer you and all would seem vastly different and yet all would be right. Any generic answer I give would cause more problems for you as a result.
The simplest answer I will give is this: If you believe in spirits, then the third eye will interact with spirits and you should get some training with a local shaman on how best to interact with spirits first.

Hello there, im 15 yrs old girl who wonders hows the third eye performs. i’ve tried it lots of times but icant get into… i will be so sad when i think that i cant get this third eye vision. and im really intrested in getting this .so can anyone please help me with this.. im really in need of help
@Asrila:
Be patient. Learning the third eye is a life time process. Also as you are young you have to be careful and make sure you don’t upset family with how you practice. If this is something that won’t upset your family, then work with your family to learn more. Otherwise wait until you are free on your own to make such choices to explore such topics.
Learning it now isn’t going to speed up how fast you learn everything. Learning more about the world around you is as important as learning to see the patterns underneath the visible world.
Hello there sir, I am 21 and ever since I was very young I have always sort of had this set peace with me, and I was wondering if it’s possible to have an already open eye without knowing anything about it? Or is it something when it happens you definitely know it happened? Thank you!
Hi There! I am 39 years old. I have always been able to look at people and feel what they are feeling. Sometimes, I think I just over think things and blow it off. I have always thought I was a very good judge and reader of people but I am thinking it just might be a little more than that. Do you think I am a little more in tune with my third eye and that is why I feel this way.
@Kathleen: Yes it’s possible for the third to be partially open without a person truly understanding it’s partially open.
@Marie: That is a reasonable way to look at it. The third eye can help you understand people in a deeper manner if you look into their nature to better understand their essence rather than responding to what they normally project.
Hi, my name is Ziko, as u see im here.. Means that noone to talk about whats going on. Im a martial artist and few weeks ago we had a meditation clas.. after that I started learning more about meditations and it brought me to ” ANja – Third eye openings and so on.. I tryed the meditations that was for opening the third eye.. And developed the faith, that i CAN! And i guess i did or im still.. My forehead , between my eyebrows been tingling and having these sensations for past 10 days.. Im trying to reach my inner balance sometimes. But there are things that i can’t understand.. Like what Can i do? How can i see with it.. and so on questions crossing my mind.. I just don’t know.. what the expect.
Become as still as the Heavenly pool to retreat into the cave and view from the eye of wisdom. Once viewing… if the concept of “I” or “me” intrudes the selfless moment will be lost and you shall emerge from the cave.
Hello, I came acrosss your website while searching about an expierence I had a few nights ago. I have always known that I am clairvoyant since I was a child. However, after childhood trauma and years of alcoholism I never developed my abilities. Over the years I do have visions and or dreams of death, and know of a close friend or family members death long before it happens. I have been sober over a year now, and since getting sober alot of strange things have been happening. I am seeing auros around people, when I hold someones hand I feel a rush of their past like a video being played on fast forward. At times it is quite frightning, so now I choose not to touch anyone I do not know. I can sense energies both positive and negative around people and as more time passes these senses are becoming stronger. A couple of nights ago I was relaxing in bed with my eyes closed, I have seen this distant light before but never thought much of it. This time it was very interesting, it opened up like a sky looking thru a peephole, there was clouds and a moon. A wolf was standing there at the light and stared at me in the eyes and i felt comfort. the light grew and a tunnel opened up and i felt drawn into it, i felt myself entering into this tunnel and I could see a purplish reddish sort of haze in this tunnel. I felt as if i was entering into another dimension/world. I felt drawn into it, i do not know who all the people where I just saw their backs they where walking like leaving a movie theater and I was standing there watching them. I was interested, yet scared at the same time that if I went any further I would not return. I have had 2 near death expierences in my life, once as a teen where I had an outer body expierence. The other one was when I had a heart attack at the age of 40. Was this 3rd eye seeing? What did I just expierence? Now that I saw this and became aware of it, I close my eyes and I can still see that light and i can open it if I want, I already tried.
Ziko: For answers you have to talk with your teachers. It really depends a lot on how you learn the third eye.
@Gina: You are exploring your life in a deeper manner now. Your visions are a path to find new meaning and different ways to see the path ahead of you.
The more you force it, the less you will see.The third eye is a gentle skill, one which easily gets swamped by desires, fears and needs.
Your mind is telling you there is potential ahead and paths which can open up new life for you. The mind is going to show you possibilities in terms of stories and visions. The trick is not to make these real, the third eye is not literal truth…but learn from them and take the best of what they offer and apply the lessons to your life.
Look back to the visions and see how they apply to your life and what lesson can be applied to making life better. The more comfortable you get with this, the more vivid and in tune the visions will get.
Sincerely
Casey
Gina, you’ve heightened your spiritual senses, but the skies, wolf etc. are of your own creation, as are people’s pasts. My Grandmother has had similar premonitions, but I’ve no idea what that means nor what purpose it serves. Don’t be overwhelmed, you’ve been entrusted with ability because you are qualified to use it.
Hate to break this to you, get advice if you must, but the only way you’ll find THE answer is on your own, and its probably not anywhere near as daunting/strange as you think.
My opinion, for what its worth, the third eye…. its there, and seeing as many are unaware of it (which may be a good thing if they’re not ready) it needs a little bit of attention. I give it some attention but also leave it to take care of itself, some enjoy its benefits passively, some work tremendously to hone it, some work and play, everyone’s different. Whatever, its life and there’s apparently more to it, good luck figuring it out.
I have started meditating and when my eyes are closed I can see a purplish colour moving around. I often see a beautiful eye looking back at me. The eye comes and goes. I recently felt this purple light flow over me and it gave me a feeling of serenity. I seek answers when i meditate and am still working on getting them answered. When i see the eye should i ask out.?
Susan: Doesn’t hurt to ask questions, but the response won’t be in words but more within feelings initially.
Hello, I am 36 yrs old who see spirits when I close my eyes ever since I was five years old. Around my pre teen years, my third eye stopped giving me visions and about ten years ago it came back to me, again. During this time, I was going through college and I had difficult time adjusting. About two years ago, spirits of dead relatives started to speak to me, usually just one sentence. This year, I started to feel and see what these spirits have felt and seen a moment before they died. I have never intentionally use my third eye but the visions do come. Is third eye experiences always about spirits and their experiences (ie,drowning)? Is it always about dark and negative?
Thank you,
Annie
in regard to Gina..Reading your story it is word to word like mine . I found a group of woman that are like me and it helped me understand more what is happening . Now i am going thru colors… retangle and green circles when i meditate so u need to contact people that have expriences in all as you are awakening and its going to be alright.i would love to talk to you about this if u let me.
After reading what you had to say, I am very intrigued by all of it. I have heard that the 3rd eye is more or less an opening to dimensions, good and bad. I’ve heard that in some religions it’s almost like another dimension, that of Satan, that’s found. Along with the ideas of the Eastern Star being symbolism for Satan. How much of this do you know is true or false? I’m open to discussion, and very curious about all of that as well as the 3rd eye and its abilities. Thanks.
@Carli: No Satan has nothing to do the third eye. Satan haunts those who judge themselves too hard and Satan is the tool of those who declare righteousness as the path to salvation. So Satan is all about bad judgement and has nothing to do with the third eye. However, bad judgement touches every part of life when a person tries to limit others to their beliefs.
Any discussions about Satan, or about bad spirits after this post will be deleted right away. This page is about Third Eye a natural and healthy part of every human being.
Many people choose to close their eyes and that is a perfectly acceptable path for many people.
If you fear the third eye, then it’s best to not delve into it until you address your fears first. This piece of advice is true in any endeavor.
I have been practicing yoga for about three years. Although I have many physical limitations I still enjoy it very much. A few months ago, while in a meditative pose, I visualized something happening to my troubled daughter. In less than 24 hours what I visualized actually happened to her. When I realized this after the initial crisis it frightened me and I have not had an experience like this again. Yet I am quite sensitive to my daughters emotions I can sometimes feel what she is thinking almost as if we are one. In the past I have had other experiences. Seven years ago when my father passed away he came to me within six hours to say “goodbye” and to “thank” me for being there for him. He told me to take care of my mother and that she would die soon. She passed four weeks after his death. Since her passing I have felt her presence many times. I have never been frightened by these occurrences. The only one that alarmed me was the one concerning my daughter. I would like to know your thoughts and if you think somehow these occurrences are related to the third eye; specifically the one pertaining to my daughter, and if you think I should me more ‘open’ instead of being cautious. There is one more thing I would like to mention. I also have some training in Reikii. I am not at a master level though. Could I be opening myself up to some things that are best not delved into? I realize I have thrown alot out there, however, I wish to thank you in advance for your response.
@Margaret: You are opening yourself up to explore potential. Potential is used to help guide us. How you use that information is guided by how you hold your heart.
Be kind and graceful, then what the third eye reveals will help you follow a kind and graceful path.
Generally speaking never push what you see upon others, or you will create conflict and then that will lessen the potential of everyone involved. Because it is all too easy to not translate what you see correctly, once you push it to another person, the extra layer of translation is sure to create problems for most people.
Hey, Casey, I’m a twenty year old young man on that road toward discovering myself as much as I am attempting to figure out the truth of this world. Now, since age seven, I was interested in the mind and all of its glory. Upon learning about the minds eye around age thirteen I almost instantly researched it and then tried to unlock it. I stopped after a few days, and since then I’ve been working on my writing career. . . Most recently, the world has become more corrupt and is in need of help and I know those with knowledge of self along with the potential that the third eye grants can enable truth and balance, let alone peace, on earth. That is why I’ve begun searching for the truth again which led me to this site and I’ve but one question. . . Have you found your truth with the unlocking of the third eye?
Thank you for this informative post. I believe I accidently opened my third eye. I’m not sure so I would like to explain what I experienced and maybe you could confirm it. I have relaxation issues,its hard for me. Two days ago I was practicing a meditation type relaxation to help fall asleep. I knew nothing about this third eye however as I lay there I felt a pressure between my brows. I saw an eye like shape, then a circle, then a square. All was black around this shape. I began to see vibrant gold, green, Violet and blue colors. It was like I was looking threw a tunnel. Then I must have fell asleep. Now everytime I close my eyes it happens again. Begining with pressure. Is this my third eye opening? It makes me a little nervous that if it is, how was it so easy and should I stop for lack of training or understanding?
Thanks
hello sir. im quite curious about this third eye vision and i wonder so many strange things before opening it,is it better than astral projection? what is its disadvantage?
Hi casey, I am Gary in England. I am a 40 year old male who meditates quite regular and can get pretty deep now fir many years now. My 3rd eye opened about 5 years ago now & then seem to close again. For some reason it has started to open however I am quite afraid of it. If I just lie there it’s seems to keep me in a trance fir hours at night watching these kind of speckled blue astroids of small particles come from up above down to my forehead in a constant steam. I know it’s sounds mad, but it’s happening and I can’t find the answer why please please please help
I have some questions, I would like to know if any of you know a true master who can help me, I have a problem that is sent to my family for generations, can someone help me? “related to the third eye”
Thank you
hi there,i heard about this thing 2 days ago,and lastnight i had kind of soft feelings all over me,and it’s winter in here but i was on fire,i fall to sleep and during my dreams i was hearing voices and qustions from people i knew but now they are dead…
Anyway..my qustion is
Can this be some kind of a third eye power?
And if it is..working on it will allowd me to answer these voices and maybe talk to them?
Thank you
Hey when someone is around me that is mad, happy, sad anything of the sort their emotion hits me like a wall and i feel their emotion and it is so vivid. This has always occured naturally so i was wondering what does that mean for the third eye? Sorry I am just a noob on this subject haha
Hello,
My name is Haley. I am currently 16 years old and live in New Mexico. I am very interested in the opening of my third eye, not because I wish to access the power of the third eye for my own purposes, but because I’d love to help people. (By helping people I mean continue my education in criminal psychology. To allow one a place to store their thoughts instead of becoming insane in long term cell confinement.) I was wondering; I already have a very spiritual look on my life, I love whom I am and the world around me. I have very little bad thoughts most of the time. I do meditate almost every night as well. Is there any way besides meditating and listening to healing(…etc) frequencies that I could in fact use to harden my grasp around my third eye? Thank you.
I’m not sure if I’m in the right place or if what I feel is totally different to what the third eye is. The fact is that since I can remember I can feel a tingling sensation in my forehead (between my eyebrows) and I could say it’s almost pleasurable or at least it’s not pain at all. I was able to feel it when pointing a sharp object, a pencil,or even my own finger towards my forehead but I could keep feeling “it” for a long time after pointing the object or my finger away. When I had enough of it I could just rub my face and it would go away. I have also felt that singling sensation at random times or at least that’s what I thought but I’ve noticed lately that it happens when I focus. Tonight I was watching a video about illusion tricks and I was paying close attention, trying to focus to see what I was supposed to see by the description and I began to feel this and by surfing on the web I’ve got here. I don’t know if you’re still answering questions but I’d like to know if this might be related to the third eye and if so what should I do in case I’m interested in trying to develop “it”
I am still answering questions. I have been teaching retreats in person to students all month which limits my time. While this is an excellent free resource and one of the best regarding third eye on the web, I still have to make a living
.
@Fabricio: 1) if you use this as an opportunity to expand your ability to use the third eye, then yes its related to the third eye. If you are a person who doesn’t believe in the third eye, then you are merely beginning to stimulate your mind and you are feeling your awareness extend slightly.
@Everyone
The third eye is what you make it to be. For many people that means it merely is a concept for fantasy, a wish to be more, and in that desire to be more, day dreaming and getting lost in day dreams is what the third eye is good for. It is this reason Third eye gets a bad reputation because when a person is ungrounded, the third eye merely takes a person on a wild fantastic goose chase.
The trouble is if you ground too much, then you also undercut the ability to see potential and to go out beyond oneself also.
For
@Fabricio: @Haley: @Jimbo: @Ezio: @Ty: @Ali: @Jon:
Right now dont worry about what the third eye might be able to do, first take the time to find a good Yoga teacher or Qi Gong teacher. Qi Gong would be better, but Kundalini Yoga is also good since these practices will help both ground you , prepare your body and mind to be clearer, so that you will better be able to expand and explore the third eye.
All too many people try to rush into the third eye, before they can walk with a spiritual wholeness. People think that the third eye is the complete practice in itself to take a person further. This is truer later in the practice, but not so at the start of the practice.
The start of a third eye practice is a delicate balance of grounding with gentle teaching. If you jump off the building you just fall down dead. If you jump off a building with a glider, you can sail around the world. The third eye might provide vision but it doesn’t provide strength or support in how you move in life.
You have to build your personal spiritual glider first before leaping fully into the third eye. This is counter intuitive since you get the visions first. So that is where people want to run first.
Be patient in how your grow within this process or find a patient teacher. It’s a process that moves/grows over a lifetime rather than be forced into full activation.

Hi Casey, thanks for taking the risk on sensibly broaching what is a difficult and emotionally laden topic for so many.
This is a simple, concise and demystified starting point for people with so many different questions, experiences and intentions regarding the use of their developing abilities. Crucially, you don’t try and railroad anyone into a dogma or locked point of view and I really appreciate that. Now more than ever we need people who are able to give others the instruction and direction they need, without constraining them to fit a dogmatic or predetermined pattern. You’ve done this admirably. I wish you the best of luck in your practice, you must be a gifted teacher.
Cheers and keep up the good work
Matt
Thanks Matt for the compliment.
I strive to help make the third eye a more balanced topic of conversation. I think it is possible to make teaching the third eye a more respectful process so people can explore the third eye with a more grounded approach.
i was simply asking how to re open ones third eye after its closed? ty
@Don: Yes it’s possible to reopen the third eye once it has been closed. Much like learning how to reopen one’s normal eyes or mind once you close down so tightly and convinced yourself you can’t see anymore…
For instance a person who has convinced themselves of only one truth and until they are ready to hear a new truth… will not hear other truths.
easier said than done
As far as to advice on how to do this, I would recommend Yoga or Qi gong exercises for a year or two first to help prep oneself.
hi casey im just wondering about myself because everytime i think of people they will call me or later i will see them. can you tell me whats this feeling thanks
Hi, since i was about 6 years old iv been having astral projections and third eye opening i think?. im now 32 years old and been meditating on my third eye recently. When i do this i see space with swerling stars and then it feels like it swollows me whole and im zipping through a worm hole, my body starts vibrating, then i get bright balls of energy comming from my third eye area, i can see them and can feel them moving around my face like chi energy, it even purses my lips… whats happening? is this normal? I need some expert help!
@bernadette: It can be several different things.
(1) Logic: Partially our mind is good at picking up on patterns and can anticipate when some people will call or need to touch base with you.
(2) Third Eye: Partially it can be the the third eye picking up on the fact some people are getting ready to reach out to you and you can sense that before the actual action.
Intention can be a powerful thing and it can be picked up by the third eye.
It’s not a perfect sense in that its easy to distract or ignore such feelings.
(3) Momentum: Since you are interacting with people and traveling in a similar pattern as them, many times momentum of life’s actions synchronize people into thinking about each other or connecting to each other at similar points. This is one reason logic can at times deduce when people are about to connect to you.
(4) Coincidence: Lastly at times it’s simple coincidence
Sincerely
Casey
@Mathhew:
I am going to start by repeating an earlier answer for your third eye experience:
Right now dont worry about what you are seeing or how this is the third eye. Take some time to find a good Yoga teacher or Qi Gong teacher. Qi Gong would be better, but Kundalini Yoga is also good since these practices will help both ground you , prepare your body and mind to be clearer, so that you will better be able to expand and explore the third eye.
Now for you I will add this:
Part of what you are seeing is a mish mass of different things. Any answer I give you over a simple comment is not going to answer you fully or in a way that will clarify some conflicting issues at play in what you are seeing.
I usually take 2 hours to work with a person who gives me a question like yours to sort out the various issues / threads at play. A simple answer will only create more problems. For instance I can simply say: your spirit is roaming and getting a bit out of sync with the mind and body. But explaining all the nuances take time and has to be synchronize with each person and how they are holding their space. So finding a energy teaching or starting an energy practice such as Qi Gong or Yoga will help you begin sorting it out by helping you ground the body / mind / spirit in a more balance manner and working this out in a safer manner.
Patience in your explorations.
hi casey, im very grateful for your answer. This was helpful,and i do feel out of balance, finding a good yoga teacher shouldnt be a problem. Is there anyway we can connect to sort through these isues?. these things have been happening to me for sometime, and have never been able to talk to anyone openly about this, due to my back ground this woulnt be appropriate.. only in the last year or so i found out what my OBE’S were lol.. So if possible i would like to connect with you to work through some things.
many thanks
Matthew
hi casey thank you for the information. can you teach me how to open my third eye? thank you
Thank you for sharing your clarity and wisdom with us.
I gained much personal understanding when I read two words, “sensory overlay”. Patterns and impressions I’d experienced clicked into place and made sense.
On phone, having difficulty with interface.

Hi casey actually you can delete my question if you want i read through the older comment just now and it was very helpful to me thanx
