First Eye Chakra

​

There is a common misconception whereby the First eye is called the Third eye,

this is not exactly true...

This eye is the first to open within the womb,

it is the spiritual eye, the primordial eye, the All Seeing Eye, your First eye !

Only upon closing does it become your Third eye.
