Subtle Body – Chakras – 6. Ajna Chakra

The Ajna Chakra, or Third Eye Chakra, is the sixth energy center, representing intuition, perception, and wisdom. It connects us to inner awareness and deeper truths beyond ordinary sight. Symbolised by an indigo lotus with two petals, it represents the balance of dual energies, Ida and Pingala. The Om symbol at its centre signifies the unity of all states of consciousness, leading to self-realisation. The upward triangle represents the ascension of insight, while the crescent moon and bindu symbolise intuition and focus. Hakini Shakti, the divine feminine force, enhances inner perception and wisdom, holding symbols of knowledge, impermanence and meditation. The Rudra Granthi knot can distort perception, leading to spiritual arrogance or skepticism. When balanced, Ajna offers clarity and discernment. This practice integrates asana, pranayama, mudra, and mantra, invoking the divine energies of Hakini Shakti and Shiva to awaken the third eye.
