The third eye chakra, also known as the brow or sixth chakra, resides one finger length above the nose between and slightly above the eyebrows.  This chakra is the center of intuition and of inner vision.

The third eye may be activated by using iolite.  It facilitates intuition and insight.  This occurs exceptionally well when all chakras are in balance.  Other stones that open this chakra are as follows:
