Indigo Chakra

The indigo chakra is often referred to as "the third eye", being located between the eyebrows and relates very specifically to the pituitary gland known as the "master gland" for its huge range of functions. The indigo chakra has to do with sight (foresight, hindsight, insight, etc.) and being able to see the whole picture or understand something. It is a very cerebral center and relates to logic. Indigo is a very deep blue/purple/black hue like the midnight sky over the Mediterranean or a blue sapphire or dark purple pansy.

Damage in the indigo chakra often means not being able to see or understand something or may relate to some issue that we may be "blind" to seeing. Indigo is the most common fourth level chakra found in people currently (then violet), consequently the world is set up and run by predominantly indigo people (who often aspire to be violet). Since we live in an extremely visual world, if you can not see it, then it does not exist. The vast majority of democratic congressmen (in the U.S.) have indigo present in their 4th level.

Since "the majority rules", the indigo (visual/logical) mode of understanding is what is held up as intelligence or I.Q. We live in a very visually oriented world. But what about "heart intelligence" or "gut intelligence"? They don't rank as high because they are in the minority. This is a problem many school children are facing who don't have indigo (or violet) in their 4th level. Many of these children labeled with learning disorders are actually very intelligent (but in a different way) and are bored with the type of curriculum the teacher is forced to teach. The sensitive and gifted "indigo children" does not refer to this system of chakras. I believe it refers to a system that is clairvoyantly looking at the sixth level and refers to a different type of soul expression than the indigo chakras. Indigo balances the orange and is a higher octave of aspects of the orange energy.
