Indigo
Indigo — the deep dye, hard to wash out — often touches deception worked on the trusting, or an ugly entanglement of the heart. The dream may ask where you might be tempted to cheat those who've been kind, what staining affair you're being drawn into, and whether a colour that sinks so deep marks something not easily undone.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for indigo, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To see indigo in a dream, denotes you will deceive friendly persons in order to cheat them out of their be longings. To see indigo water, foretells you will be involved in an ugly love affair.
Fontaine, 1862
To dream of indigo, denotes to a female that she will cross the ocean. When she dreams of putting the indigo in water, and it gives no color, she may be assured she will arrive in India. But to embrace the water in the usual way, no such thing will come to pass.
