Located at the very center of the head and brain, the third eye is the seat and source of our expanded perspectives of reality.
You may have only recently or right now become fully aware that something known as the third eye exists. It has actually been known and studied since ancient times.
So much valuable information regarding this energy center and organ has resurfaced thanks to scientific study, spiritual exploration, and of course the technology that makes it so easy to share and our ideas and experiences.
The third eye can offer us so many magical natural abilities that can enhance our experience of life.
Now that you know a little more about this powerful energy center let me answer the question you may be wondering, does everyone have a third eye?
Everyone has a third eye. This is now well known ancient and present-day knowledge. In the very center of the brain, the physical manifestation of this eye is the small pinecone shaped organ known as the pineal gland. Within your energy body, chakra system, the 6th chakra is the third eye energetic center.
Whether or not you have been logically aware of the third eye, you have one since birth and so do all humans and interestingly many other creatures too.
Whether you are energetically and physically aware of the third eye it continues to exists and function.
The third eye constantly impacts your level of perception. It offers you the ability to both emit and receive high vibrational energies.
It allows the opportunity for the greater development of your extrasensory abilities such as clairvoyance, visions, lucid dreaming, and astral projection.
The Location Of The Third Eye In Your Body
The third eye is located in the very center of your forehead head along your brow bone.
This is the location of the third eye chakra which is in alignment with the location of the pineal gland (the physical manifestation of the third eye) which is housed in the central part of the human brain.
This part of the brain which houses the pineal gland is known as the primal or reptilian brain and is the oldest part of the human brain known to have developed around 500million years ago; it operates on instinct and is responsible for many vital regulatory functions of the body.
This part of the brain is linked to the spinal cord and is the reason why deep breathing exercises are an extremely effective practice for awakening the third eye.
Deep breathing creates a motion within the body that massages our internal organs; the compressing and relaxing the spinal cord has a physical stimulating effect on the pineal gland.

Another example is the eye of Horus symbol which has a striking likeness to a cross-section diagram of the human brain indicating the location of the pineal gland.
Scientific studies have also presented us with fascinating details about the pineal gland such as its role in hormone production which has a vital impact on our consciousness and perception as well as certain physical details like the fact that the pineal glands contains retinal tissue (rods and cones structures that are present in our other two eyes) as well as the discovery that this gland is sensitive to light.
