A simple way to express it is that the third eye provides perceptions not available or explainable with your basic senses. Some see it as a way to balance emotion and reason. This eye of enlightenment or higher consciousness is associated with clairvoyance, chakras and auras, precognition, visions, out-of-body experiences, as well as with the pineal gland.
If you doubt your gut feelings or your sense of purpose if you are feeling stagnant and unable to meet goals that fulfill your deepest reason for being, unblocking your third eye can help you rebalance emotion and reason.
