Third Eye Anointing Oil: The Ajna Chakra and Psychic Development
The third eye, known in Sanskrit as Ajna, is the sixth chakra in the traditional Hindu energy system, positioned at the center of the forehead slightly above the brow line. Ajna translates roughly as “command” or “perceive,” and practitioners across Hindu, Buddhist, and Western esoteric traditions associate this energy center with intuition, clairvoyance, dream recall, and the capacity to perceive patterns beyond ordinary sensory experience. Third eye anointing oils are formulated to support ritual work aimed at developing or deepening these perceptive capacities, typically through meditation, divination sessions, or dreamwork practices.
Espiritu’s Third Eye Oil is a ritual fragrance oil crafted for anointing, candle dressing, and ceremonial use rather than aromatherapy or skin care. The 2-dram vial holds approximately 0.25 oz, a compact size that fits easily in a kit, travel bag, or altar drawer. Plant associations commonly linked to third eye and psychic development work include mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris), star anise, lavender, and clary sage, botanicals that appear across folk magic, Wiccan, and hoodoo traditions as allies for opening intuitive perception and encouraging vivid, meaningful dreams.

Psychic Development Oil: Uses Across Traditions
In contemporary Wiccan and neo-pagan practice, anointing the forehead at the third eye point before ritual, tarot reading, or scrying is a common preparatory step that signals the practitioner’s mind that the session is beginning and that heightened attention is called for. In hoodoo and Southern conjure, condition oils are applied to the body, to candles, and to petition papers as part of setting a focused intention. Third eye oils in this tradition are often paired with purple or indigo candles, colors associated with psychic work and spiritual sight. The overlap between these traditions means the oil functions across frameworks without requiring commitment to any single one.
This is a fragrance oil, not an essential oil designed for therapeutic or aromatherapy applications. If you are looking for pure essential oils for diffuser use or direct skin application, the essential oils category is the right resource for that purpose. Perform a patch test if applying directly to skin, as fragrance blends vary in composition.
How to Use Third Eye Anointing Oil
A step-by-step guide to using Espiritu Third Eye Oil in ritual anointing and psychic development work.
- Prepare Your Intention
Before opening the vial, sit quietly and define what the session should open: clearer intuition, vivid dreams, sharper divination, or a specific question needing insight. A clear intention gives the anointing a focal point.
- Anoint the Third Eye Point
Apply one or two drops to your index finger. Touch the oil to the center of your forehead, just above the brow line, using a small circular motion. Anoint your wrists or candles and petition papers for the same working.
- Proceed Into Your Practice
Move directly into your chosen practice: meditation, tarot reading, scrying, or preparing for sleep if doing dreamwork. The anointing marks the shift from ordinary awareness into a focused receptive state for the session.
The Tarot Fellow Standard
I stock Espiritu’s Third Eye Oil because it fills a specific slot in the anointing oil lineup: a formula aimed squarely at psychic development and divination preparation rather than general spiritual blessing. The 2-dram vial is the right size for practitioners who want a dedicated oil at hand for tarot sessions, meditation sits, or dream journaling. For tools that pair well with this oil in an integrated Ajna-centered practice, take a look at my chakra and meditation collection.
