| In tutte ste pagine non sono riuscito a trovare cos'era stato detto, cmq con indigo non ci si riferisce come vien facile pensare all'indaco ma al nero, indigo è infatti l'altro nome dell' hennè nero, ricavato dall’essicazione e la fermentazione di una pianta tropicale. E' proprio quello usato per i tatuaggi temporanei che ti fà il tizio in spiaggia! (io da qualche parte sono sicuro d'aver letto indaco, scusate se dopo faccio una figuraccia di merda epica perchè magari lo sapete tutti) E' noto però per aver la potenzialità di aver causato gravi danni alla pelle di molte persone (tipo allergie e macchie permanenti)... Cmq wikipedia dice: CITAZIONE Indigo in human culture
New Age Philosophy
* The color electric indigo is used to symbolically represent the sixth chakra (called Ajna), which is said to include the third eye. This chakra is believed to be related to intuition and gnosis (spiritual knowledge).
Parapsychology
* Psychics who claim to be able to observe the aura with their third eye generally associate indigo, in auras, with an interest in religion or with intense spirituality and intuition. Indigo children are said to have predominantly indigo auras. People with indigo auras are said to be in occupations such as computer analyst, animal caretaker, and counselor.
Sociology
* Indigo was the color worn by the Dalits (Untouchables) in India before their pariah status was made illegal. If those of the higher castes touched any indigo object, they had to perform a ritual expiation.
Nomenclature
* India is believed to be the oldest center of indigo dyeing in the Old World. It was a primary supplier of indigo to Europe as early as the Greco-Roman era. The association of India with indigo is reflected in the Greek word for the dye, which was indikon. The Romans used the term indicum, which passed into Italian dialect and eventually into English as the word indigo EDIT: Nelle poche traduzioni che ci sono su internet c'è scritto indaco |
