Remember, way back in 2024, when Princess Catherine was MIA due to what Kensington Palace reported as “planned abdominal surgery” and everyone went BERSERK? No, like the media actually went crazy over it. There were viral online conspiracy theories, and it was top news on all the channels. Where was Princess Kate? The theories were wild, ranging from her having secret plastic surgery to being replaced altogether with a body double because she wanted out of the royal life. It seemed like everyone had a theory.
Including me, and it was that she had done the indighost.
When she finally came back online to address her absence, it was revealed she had a cancer diagnosis and was focusing on treatment. She had done that thing, the thing that a lot of bludigos do, disappeared to heal in private. Or, what we call over here, the indighost.
Well, it sort of happened again when the Princess unexpectedly cancelled a planned appearance two days after her last one with apparently very short public notice. News following came out about how allegedly she was “very fortunate” to have survived the cancer she had, that it was much more serious than they had initially let on.
Different auras require different ways to heal, and many times blues, bludigos and especially indigos tend to hibernate and retreat from society to do so. Let's take a look at Princess Catherine's most recent photo, as well as a timeline of past photos to get a grasp of her aura and the evolution it has undergone.
Back in 2004 before Catherine was a princess, we see her aura is purple blue, with a strong and present purple leading the way. She feels excited, spontaneous and a little impulsive in a fun way. Her ability to trust her adaptability is why she throws herself into adventures. Her optimism and appreciation for fun in life allow her to be almost contagious with an energy others gravitate towards.
Fast forward to Princess Catherine in 2013 when her first baby was born. We all remember her making the walk out of the hospital, just hours after having a baby. She has a fluffy, swirly blue aura. Barely any purple is present. However, she feels soft, calm and peaceful. She feels relieved and a little shell shocked. She feels warm and nurturing. Now... she just had a baby. This always affects an aura (as you moms def know) and because of this it isn’t so alarming one of her aura colors retreated for the moment. Auras don't change so much as adapt with us.
A more difficult time presented in 2022 as we see with Princess Catherine at the "Queen's Jubilee". There was a plethora of media speculation and frenzy over herself and Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex. Princess Catherine’s aura looks fuzzy. The blue is dark and attempting to be a boundary to the energy of the outside trying to breach her privacy. She seems to keep the purple inside, and it's almost dark. Her energy feels frantic, upset. Like she doesn't want anyone to know what she's feeling at all yet is fully away every moment, every movement is judged and monitored. Blues can be VERY good at masking their vibe, and this is what her aura is attempting at here.
Early in 2024 Princess Catherine shares her diagnosis and why she left the public eye after the fallout of her sudden disappearance. Her aura is Bludigo, blue and indigo, and she feels exhausted. Her boundaries are fuzzy, like she wants to be invisible right now. Blues/indigos can do an "indighost" or disappear in order to heal. The ability to FEEL everything energetically, makes it impossible and detrimental to be around people who want to know about you or take energy from you. Even if there are good intentions, the energy of those around must be limited for one’s own personal supply. To me, it was evident she needed to limit the people she was around to those she could be fully herself with. I truly believe drawing this hard line, making sure she wasn’t dragging herself out for public approval, is what saved her. She needed every drop of energy she had to make herself well again.
Later in 2024 Princess Catherine makes an announcement that she is healing and completing her chemotherapy. Her aura is blue, indigo and the purple is lighter yet stronger. She feels less burdened by holding the expectations of others. She feels stronger in spirit.
I feel like this journey has amplified her own boundaries and ability to ask for what she needs and wants. She feels way less likely to care about the gossip people think and perceive. I really feel like Diana is there in Spirit lending her this strength and voice as well. Illness such as this can be a portal to a dimension in which you live separately, differently than you did before. Princess Catherine feels like she changed while undergoing this difficult time.
This was Princess Catherine’s last public appearance before her short notice cancelling another public event two days later. Her bludigo aura looks fluffy, a little thick. To me this means she doesn’t feel well, she doesn’t have the energetic strength to be out right now and carry on the way she is comfortable doing so. Her purple is dark, and confined to her neck and throat area. I do feel like she has the power to stick up for herself, speak to her needs and be firm. The blue aura looks wispy though, a struggle to be shaped or used effectively. To me she is not feeling great, she is needing a more serious scaleback of her duties and responsibilities in order to stay on track. The good news is she listens to herself and is seeming to make it a point to put her health above her job.
If you’ve been through a health journey, you have the right to heal the way which feels best to you… even if others don’t understand.
Tell me your thoughts!
My 🌀💜 sister had cancer and it absolutely changed her on almost every level. Even the look in her eyes is different. But most notably her ability and willingness to put up with any bullshit that exhausts or upsets her has nearly disappeared. It’s like she’s connected deeply to who she really is and to what’s truly important in life, and is unafraid of death, and she can’t forget what she knows now that she’s well again. Plus she’s aware her time could be limited, and so wasting it feels unbearable. It’s actually very cool and inspiring, though for such a painful reason.
I think also she’s just seen so much of the dark side - the pain, the fear, the misery of chemo - that it’s weird to relate to the mundanity of regular human life again. And especially to anyone who wasn’t there or supportive during that time.
The whole experience was a lens that seems to have shifted how she sees everyone and everything.
So it makes sense to me Catherine would be different now, and protecting herself, and more able to say no. Who cares about upsetting some royal handlers when you’ve met Death?
What makes me sad about Kate in particular, though, and maybe my sister too, is the loss of that sparkly joyous spontaneous purple. I think for Kate it was royal life. For my sis it’s illness and family life. I hope both of them find a way to get it back.
How does the bluedigo recover from being so overwhelmed? Especially when they feel everything 💙🌀
