ITS PLACE AND MEANING

From the Sanskrit, Ājñā, the Brow chakra is associated with being located between your eyebrows. The Brow chakra has commonly become known as our “third eye“

Originally those who practiced tantric yoga and worked with the Brow chakra would have visualized a subtle, spinning, metaphysical smokey-indigo, translucent lotus flower with two petals and a downward pointing triangle in the middle. Today, you will usually see the Brow chakra represented as being completely indigo

When working with the Brow chakra, you should remember that the practice is primarily one of visualization and the purpose is to bring you closer to the divine: for the kundalini, the energy of creation, to rise up through all of the chakras until it meets the divine

To facilitate visualization and activation of the Brow chakra, it has been associated with colors, elements, organs, crystals, archangels, positive human values and foods. These connections should be recognized as channels that we can use to help us release the energy and to bring us closer to our connection with the divine

It is common to associate the color indigo and the element of light with the Brow chakra

The mantra, OM being the seed-mantra of the light element and the basic sound which contains all other sounds is usually used when invoking the Brow chakra. However, there is no reason to only use the energies of OM. Should your head feel too busy and your life full of words and noise, or you’re  simply failing to visualize the kundalini rising-up through the Brow chakra, there is every reason to work with the seed-mantra for the other elements, earth (LAM), water (VAM), fire (RAM), space (HAM) and air (YAM)
