Color Magic, the magic of the color Blue, Blue Gemstones and Blue Gemstone Jewelry at Shimmerlings Artisan Jewelry! Indigo is the color of the deep midnight sky, a blend of blue and violet, quite magical really. It symbolizes a mystical borderland of wisdom, self-mastery and spiritual realization; and can deepen any mood, so it must be used with care. While the color blue is representative of communications with others, indigo turns the blue inward to increase personal though, profound insight and instant understanding of self. While blue tends to work quickly, indigo is all but instantaneous. Inventors use indigo skills for inspirations that seem to simply "come out of the blue"...no pun intended...
