Ajna, The Brow Chakra - command centre ajni = command

This energy centre is the gateway to our intuition, where communication and command from the internal guru is heard. At this point the link between the mental and psychic aspects of our being is created as the three channels of susumna, ida and pingala converge.

Physical location: behind the space in between the eyebrows, mid-brain at the medulla and pineal plexuses. Because of its location at the third eye it may also be referred to asjnana chakshu - the eye of wisdom.

Element, maha tattva (cause of the mind element) 

Seed mantra: om

Symbolism: a two-petalled silver lotus, one petal representing the sun (pingala) and one the moon (ida). The circle of the lotus is of a silvery white shade, with a lingam (symbol of masculine creative energy) in its centre, placed within a downward-pointing triangle, which is a symbol of the feminine principle (sakti).

Focusing on a glowing circle of light at the centre of your eyebrows, radiating wisdom and intuition, enhances insight and inner knowing.
