    What Does It Mean Spiritually When You See Flashes of Light?

    Spiritual awareness brings with it a whole host of interesting experiences and phenomena, many of which make little sense to the logical mind.

    In meditation we can experience a variety of ‘unusual’ visual symptoms such as seeing flashing lights, geometry, colors etc. Each represents something a little different on a spiritual level.

    Oftentimes these manifestations can shock or surprise us, and one of the first things we’ll want to do is gain some reassurance. I’ve been there too! Googling stuff I’ve seen in meditation hoping to find a simple to understand explanation.

    Sometimes you are experiencing something purely mental, your brain throwing out something interesting due to sensory deprivation, other times there is a deeper meaning. It’s important to differentiate between the two. For the most part you have nothing to worry about!

    In this blog I want to go over what it really means when you see flashes of light while meditating, what this says about your spiritual development and what to do after.

  • Seeing Purple During Meditation (Third Eye Activation)

    Seeing Purple During Meditation (Third Eye Activation)

    Seeing Purple During Meditation

    During meditation there are so many different phenomena that we can experience, that may leave us confused or unsure. In meditation we start to become more tuned in to subtle energies.

    Subtle energies exist beyond the five physical senses, also known as prana, qi, or etheric energies. We see beyond the physical and obvious. One of the most common experiences during meditation is seeing different colors.

    These colors can be interpreted in many ways, sometimes we are experiencing something mental/psychological, other times we are experiencing something deeper.

    In today’s post I want to explore what it means when we see a purple color or light in the center of our vision.

    Why You Cry During Meditation: Understanding Energetic Purging

    why you cry during meditation

    When you think of someone meditating you probably picture some tranquil being with their back straight and legs crossed in a lotus position, smiling peacefully.

    That is most peoples’ understanding on meditation…and there are real examples of that. Meditation can be full of heightened level of calm, joy and bliss. But it isn’t always that way! In fact a lot of the time it is confusing and disorienting.

    When we observe ourselves we inevitably notice some things that we do not want to – stuff that is deeply buried and painful. There is a necessary shadow work that takes places once we get still.

    That is what I want to discuss in this post. Is it normal to cry during meditation? Plus what you should do if your experience is not all positive or ‘peaceful’.

    A consistent meditation practice brings with it a whole host of interesting experiences both internally and externally.

    As we deepen our awareness we begin to perceive things differently and with more clarity. One common experience when meditating is seeing different colors, shapes and forms.

    It’s not always obvious why we are having certain experiences or if we should even pay attention to them at all.

    In today’s post I want to explore the meaning of seeing green color during meditation.

    What It Means When You See Blue Light During Meditation

    A regular meditation practice brings with it a myriad of visual and energetic experiences. Some with obvious meanings, others come with a little more confusion. Seeing colors is one of the most common phenomenon people report.

    In today’s post I want to briefly touch on what seeing blue during meditation means.

    Many people report seeing a blue color, light, energy, or a blue pearl. Seeing different colors is a common experience during meditation, however someone stick out more than others.

    When I started working with my chakras consistently there was one time in meditation where I suddenly perceived a blue pearl. I wasn’t imagining or visualizing it, I just saw it as if it was right in front of me – as ‘real’ as anything physical.

    When I researched and found that other people had seen the same thing, it was clear that there is this collective consciousness we are all tapping into. I knew it on an intellectual level, but having this direct experience was refreshing.

    Blue connects to the throat chakra, which governs our sense of expression, particularly vocal expression.

    So sometimes when we see this blue color it means we should focus on the throat chakra. Speak up more, clarify our boundaries, express ourselves in different ways.

    Blue can also link to the third eye chakra, and you are seeing an aspect of it. Seeing this blue color can make us feel uplifted, calm, connected. Bring a little awareness to the color, but don’t overthink what it means or exactly how you should focus.

    The blue pearl/nila bindu

    blue pearl meditation

    The blue pearl is also known as the nila bindu, a point in the crown chakra that is the ‘seed of consciousness’ or ‘higher soul’.

    This blue pearl is an initiation into our intuition. Through observing this blue pearl we observe our true nature.

    Any meditations or yoga poses that target the crown chakra can encourage the appearance of this blue pearl or blue light.

    What is your experience with the blue light or blue pearl?

    For legal purposes, this meme is a joke

    On the surface meditation can seem a pretty boring affair – you sit in silence for a few minutes focusing on your breath and calm the mind. However the deeper you go the ‘weirder’ thing can get.

    Meditation doesn’t just bring more quite into our lives, it opens us up to a world we are not used to perceiving with our physical senses.

    Some of these experiences can be confusing especially if they come out of the blue, but most of the time there is a simple explanation.

    In this post I’m going to go over the meaning of seeing colors during meditation, based on my personal experience. Know that this is only one perspective, although I will attempt to cover as much as I can.
