Indigo - Third eye chakra
Well what exactly does this mean?
To me this means listening to my intuition or the first feeling that I feel before my logical mind interferes and reasons with me. Of course it is not bad to listen to my logical mind but it is better to combine both logic and intuition.
The color indigo is associated with the third eye or brow chakra. The sanskrit name for this chakra is the ajna center. This is the center and color associated with self realization and the seed sound AUM. The sound Aum is the most ancient sound known and it creates unity in your consciousness.
The third eye chakra is where your “being” is recognized and goes beyond science and physical manifestation. It’s the knowing of spiritual matter that is passed down into all aspects of you.
“Om is that eternal music which can smooth away all the creases of negativity in our Karmic database.” - Banani Ray -
So, how do you access and listen to the power of your third eye?
The easiest way is to sit quietly in meditation and focus on the color indigo. Imagine it ebbing and flowing and when other thoughts fill in simply acknowledge them. Be aware of the sound of your inbreath (so) and outbreath (hum). As you listen to the sounds so and hum everything else fades away. If you sit quietly for 10 minutes in this state, you will notice that you begin to relax and listen.
"There is a voice that does not use words. Listen."
- Rumi -
I use the power of color in Color Therapy to teach and maintain this connection with the intuitive self. I believe that it is a powerful tool to have. Here is how it works….
In a session you would choose 5 colored bottles that appeal to you. From the bottles you choose it tells you and me what it is that you are feeling at both the conscious and subconscious levels. It also looks at past lives and what patterns both positive and negative that we carry from those lifetimes into present. It would bring to your awareness a lesson to be learned or a gift to be acknowledged. I work especially with clearing issues around relationships, whether it is in love, or your finances or how you feel about yourself.

5 Easy ways to add the power of the color Indigo into your life:
1. Sit outside in nature and listen to the birds and the sounds of nature, this is a meditation. Whether you listen to the rustling of the trees or the chirping of birds there is much healing in nature.
2. Wear indigo clothing to help you absorb the colors energy and increase your intuitive abilities.
3. Keep an indigo crystal with you like lapis lazuli or sodalite which can help open the third eye chakra and expand your consciousness.
4. Painting the walls of your home in indigo or decorating it with indigo cushions or throws could bring in the message of an open expansiveness inviting you to listen to your intuition and bring in a sense of peace or calm.
5. Visualizing indigo color surrounding you in a meditation and then repeating the word Aum and “That I am, I am that” can bring you to a place of realization within yourself.
“ I have been a seeker And I still am, But I stopped asking the books And the stars. I started listening to the Teachings of my soul” - Rumi -
