It is probably that energy center/chakra/whatever you want to label it as.

I notice it too most times like while trying to do astral exits. It "spins."

It means that due to your work in deeper states, the chakra has begun functioning better, activating, better energy flow etc, perhaps due to removal of some blockages etc, and you are now able to feel it when activated.

All which is very good and possitive.

Hi Jahfonde,

It's hard to say what that sensation would mean – every individual has their own unique circumstances, etc. It might be the third eye, or perhaps it's an ordinary physical sensation that you've come to notice by being more self-aware.

When I've been able to perceive information from my chakras - intuition, clairvoyance, etc., I have sometimes felt a sensation (don't really know how to describe it) as I got the information, but it's not a permanent thing, at least in my case.

I'm sure if you look deeper into it and keep up practicing techniques for self-knowledge that you'll figure it out.

All the best!

Mike

Based on the last post made I thought it might be a good idea to add a few things.

What you describe about the tingeling in the middle of forehead, is a classical and typical 3rd eye sensation. It is enormously common to encounter people who after a certain period of practises and work in deeper states (in other words, practise to leave body, meditation and other trance work) begin to feel their 3rd eye and oftentimes other chakras.

Most people would describe that exactly as you did, a tingeling in the forehead. This tingeling does not mean the chakra has opened, or that you are receptible, or have psychic faculties or anything. What it does mean is that the 3rd eye chakra is active and there is a good flow of energy through it.

Most people experience this sensation only when in a relaxed state, but if it gets developed enough, and you sensitive enough, you might begin to feel it at other times too.

It is also not uncommon that the chakra is more active and due to various reasons, is felt even more intensively, in forms of pressure as if someone is holding a thumb in forehead etc. You might for instance notice that if you focus ont he sensation of tingeling in forehead during meditation, it after a while might go from tingeling to pressure, this due to your focus ont he spot sends more energy there, which increases the sensation and activity and creating this sensation.

Now if you only experiences this on some single occasion or two, it might be uncertain as to accuacy of it being 3rd eye chakra, even though likely. But if you feel it oftently, and oftentimes or perhaps even most or all the times when in deeply relaxed states, then in my oppinion there is no doubt that it is the 3rd eye chakra based on quite a number of things. This is then, as I said a very possitive thing, as it indicates a well working and active chakra.

This does not mean that not feeling it makes it badly working or non-active or anything... Nor does it mean that it being well active and well working means psychic faculties, because it does not... it just means the chakra is working well and properly, being active and "spinning" as some might call it.

Hey, Patrik!

I was wondering if there is anything specific you can do when somehow you receive a higher type of energy to say lighter coming from the chakras or somewhere else and it feels good but it is like it is too much for you or you are not used to it and you feel kinda exhausted from it to say .....

Thanks!

Hi Nadya,
Well assuming I understood you correctly... It might first be a good idea to consider how you are to get used and adjusted to a higher energy if you block it out?

I do not know exactly what kind of energy, or how you experience it. But you can lessen and limit the flow of energy through a chakra (such as heart chakra) by closing your energy field and chakras.

You can try to imagine putting a cork (or something you find more suitable) into each energy center (starting with the crown), visualizing each of them being shut without anything comming in or out. This type of visualization can be used as a tool to mentally close down the receptiveness of the chakras, which should limit the flow of energy through them.

Depending on exactly what you experience, this might or might not work :)

Hi Patrik!

I think 3 of my chakras are more active now 1st or 2nd, 4th and 7th. Sometimes I feel them all in the same time sometimes not. The energy like I said feels lighter and peaceful but then again there is some kind of resistance and tiredness in the same time. It is an odd feeling! lol

Okay thanks for your advice! I am not sure if I have to close them down I mean if this is the better thing to do ...... but we'll see. :)

Hi Jahfonde,
I feel the same thing in my forehead on and off. It has happened to me for a few years, but I don't know what it is. It is in the area of the third eye but like someone else said I don't really equate it with any chakras 'opening' or anything. It's just like I know that there is a point there in the body- where there is a sense of pressure or tingling. And I do notice it stronger after a long mantra.

Oh also Jahfonde, it was really annoying for me also at first, but just because I was focusing on it. Now it's just there, like the feeling of wearing clothes or something, but not annoying anymore :)
