3rd eye question

Last night when meditating my 3rd eye felt a great deal of pressure (felt like pushing out from the inside). It lasted about 5 minutes and slowly went away as I lost focus.

Can someone elaborate on what this might mean, ie could it be my 3rd eye trying to open up ? Is there something else I could have / should have done at this point ? When I meditate I do see the purple chakra color, but not certain if my 3rd eye is/was open or not ...

If it were open, would I see/experience anything different during the meditation ?


thoughts ?

Sounds like it was on its way to opening. Try again, and let things happen naturally. If you feel a little panicked then do stop. You have no reason to feel panicked, however since you felt something new to you it makes sense that you will be shocked a little.

Keep it up, sounds like you're doing well.

How can you tell your 3rd eye was opening?

I have been meditating for a while but have not had this experience. I know very little about the third eye.

When the third eye starts opening it usually feels like there's some pressure where it's located. Perception also becomes more evolved, allowing you to perceive things differently. Not everyone has their third eye open the same way others do, you could perhaps need to give it time, maybe it is already open and you simply aren't aware. I suggest you look up information from chakra websites in order to learn more about the third eye.
