COLOR THERAPY: INDIGO

Indigo has been used as a sedative and it helps to open up our intuition. It's the color of divine knowledge and the higher mind. It can be used to create focus and clarity.

The Third Eye Chakra in Ayurvedic medicine is called Ajna and is associated with the color indigo. It is naturally associated with the element of light and its seed sound or chant in kundalini yoga is AUM. Indigo relates to the brow chakra which is in the centre of the forehead. The related organs to this chakra are the eyes, lower head and sinuses and the endocrine gland is the pituitary gland. Indigo relates to self responsibility, that is to say, being responsible for one's own life; responsibility to oneself to follow the soul's path and needs and trusting one's own intuition and connecting to our higher self. The ability to see things from a higher or birds eye viewpoint rather than purely from the ego or our material comfort. Intuitive messages are unique to you and are for your own personal wellbeing and highest good. When it is deficient, you can have poor judgment and be intimidated easily. When it is overabundant you can be inconsiderate of others, obsessive or uncaring/disconnected with other fellow humans.
