What are chakras?

The chakras are energy points or centres in our bodies in and out of which energy flows. In Sanskrit chakra means wheel so you could imagine them to be spinning wheels or vortexes of energy. Just as you have memories stored in your brain, your chakras are mini data centres where everything that has happened to you is stored. Each centre houses specific experiences. How cool is that to have your own mini you library stored in areas of your body? I also believe that they hold keys to our future selves too.
Just as we have a physical body, chakras can be likened to our spiritual body. Each one acts like a window to the soul and will feed information back to you about the state of your health and life. The health and energetic vibration of each chakra is influenced by the energies that surround you and the energy you project from your thoughts and feelings. This shows up in how you feel and experience life.

Needs
Your third eye chakra is about seeing differently, perception, imagination, your psychic ability, and higher intuition. It also deals with your relationship with yourself and connection to your Higher Self. It is the place of imagination, insight, visualisation, dreams, and visions. Here you will receive guidance which can be corroborated with your emotions at the sacral and gut feelings at the solar plexus. This chakra acts as our guiding light in life, giving us the ability to see solutions, be objective, and clear-headed. It is here that we bridge left and right-brained thinking and get our most significant insights. This is the second of the spiritual chakras which open the gateway to developing clairvoyance.
Balanced
When this is balanced, you understand how things around you are working, you can solve challenges calmly, you will have clarity of vision and thought, you are imaginative and intuitive, and possess great insight. Using your intuition and imagination and can turn your ideas into brilliant visions. You will use this inner sense to ask for guidance to make the right decisions.
Manifesting
In terms of manifesting what you want, you are able to envision what it will look like when your dreams become a reality.
Third eye chakra – Illusion
This chakra deals with insight, which is blocked by illusion, and this closes down our right to see. This chakra asks us to release the illusions that hold us back from clarity and truth. When your visions are not allowed to come to fruition, then you can feel separated from all that is dear to you. It is believed that one of the biggest illusions humans have is the illusion of separation. The illusion that we are separated from the rest of the world. Because in fact, we are all one. We may not be equal, but energetically we are one. Ask why you are unable to create a vision for your life? What illusions do you put in the way of bringing your visions to life? When you dare to dream and turn these into goals, you will find that your life will change in unexpected ways.
