Indigo Children and Beyond

Up until recently in our evolution, the human race as a species has undergone a long period of searching for spirituality outside of it's self. Much of the ancient knowledge of the individual's connection with the divine has disappeared with the advent of the Newtonian model of physics. The human quest for control and the separation created by things like religion, sex, race and language has deactivated an entire portion of our DNA. Even while reading this, if you are a person who has grown up under the "modern" model of physics and medicine, the idea of DNA having anything to do with spirit, much less being inter-dimensional in nature will most likely be a concept that you do not fully accept. But this is not only the truth of DNA it is one of the major discoveries about DNA that science has neither explained nor explored yet. This "non use" caused the biological structure of many humans to change dramatically and subsequently the generations born to them to retain that biological change. Humans were no longer focused on their mind-body-spirit connection and so, the physical manifestations (much of them chemical) of that connection atrophied. As a result many people of earth have to work to consciously access this connection and re-activate that unused portion of their DNA. All of this is about to change. In fact it has been in the process for changing for quite some time now.

We are in the midst of an evolutionary change. This evolutionary change is being led by the children of this "new age". More and more, children are coming into this physical reality retaining the conscious knowledge of whom and what they are, knowing why they are here and with more and more of their inter-dimensional DNA potential activated. These children have an actual biological system connection to the divine. By now, you may have heard the "buzz" surrounding the first of these new humans called "indigo children". Though Indigo children have been trickling in here and there since the 1950's, they did not register on society's radar until the 1970's. The first large wave of this variation in human form came about in the 1980's. Many of these children chose to come in to the physical existence at this time through parents who participated in the 1960's shift in consciousness. Indigo children are the "warriors" and "trailblazers" of the new age. They are the bridge to the next level of humanity. Indigo children carry a new energetic vibration which has begun to transform humanity. For the indigo children, the door to universal consciousness is always open and accessible. They, along with the subsequent variations to come after them, are changing human consciousness. Indigo children began to catch attention because their strong biological connection to "spirit" along with the fact that they have no knowledge (or care) of what is and isn't "possible" made it so that they could not fit into the current structure of society. There is no limit to their comprehension and they could not be made to conform. They did not come in looking to absorb the current beliefs of humanity; they came to build new belief for themselves and for man kind. Because of their intense spirit connection and intentions, Indigo children have come into this life with what seemed to many like supernatural abilities ranging all the way from strong intuition to full blown extrasensory capabilities. Indigo children, though physical in form, have an ethereal quality to them. The fact that these children have no concept of what is or is not impossible, means that they will lead us beyond the limits of what we believe to be possible and to break down the old patterns and barriers that have been present in society. Because they are here for the purpose of facilitating change, they have also garnered much attention over the years for being incredibly difficult children to raise. Indigo children (like successive new age children) do not turn to adults for answers. They would rather find the answers within themselves and learn "the hard way". Many adults will expect respect from an indigo based on age and life experience but age is not a qualification for anything in the mind of an indigo. They have great problems with authority because they do not think that the world is the way it should be and so they do not listen to the advice of people who have participated in making the world the way that it is. They are non conformists to the extreme, but not for the sake of personal expression or fun, rather for the aim of altering this world's vision. They (unlike the successive peaceful, loving new age children) have the "warrior" energy of a person coming into life with the express intention of destroying beliefs and systems which they do not think serve humanity. They come in with the idea that many will be against them, but the will to succeed in bringing down any aspect of society that is archaic and limiting. Any one who values conformity or obedience will misunderstand and butt heads the indigo. Indigo children do not respond normally to disciplinary action. Disciplinary action is exactly what they expected to be met with before coming into life and so... disciplinary action is faced by an indigo child, like battle. They often have easy tempers and so any attempt to get them to abide by limits will most likely be met with this temper and be treated like combat. However, unlike what you would typically expect from a person with warrior type energy, they have very sensitive systems. Because their senses are taking in much more stimulus than the average person's they have a lower resiliency to certain foods and environments. Making them seem high maintenance. The indigo child will never try to join a group. Instead, they will isolate themselves until they find a kindred spirit. Sadly, many of the first waves of indigo children due to their various abnormal behaviors have wound up being labeled as mentally ill and therefore been medicated and influenced out of their amazing gifts. The struggle they have faced in coming in to shift society to such an extreme degree often makes their life circumstances so difficult that unfortunately, the suicide rate for indigo children in their adolescence and even adulthood is very high. These children are called indigo children because the new vibration that they carry moves in such a way that the light distribution versus the wavelength of this energy makes it so that the human eye perceives the electromagnetic spectrum of that energy at between 420 nanometers and 450 nanometers in wavelength, in other words... the color we call "indigo".

Now, that the Indigo children have paved the way, children with even newer, advanced energetic vibrations have come in and continue to come in. They are still very young, and so we have not felt the full force of their purpose coming to fruition. You may hear them being called "crystal" children and "rainbow" children and "blue star" children. Though they share the commonality with indigo children that they are very empathic, hypersensitive, profound, intuitive and extrasensory, they differ in that they bring the energetic vibration of peace and even the energy of divine love and unity. Their auras are very different because of this new vibration. Their auras, instead of taking on their own individual color, tend to be prismatic either appearing like a clear, reflective light field that takes on the colors around it. Or like the aura it's self already contains all colors within the color spectrum (much like a rainbow effect). These children are connected, very sensitive, communicative and compassionate. Many of them have incredible abilities to heal others.

Many of these new age children however, do not immediately possess the current social skills that are expected within society because these behaviors go against their over all goal. Therefore, many diagnoses including the autism diagnosis will rise dramatically with the introduction of these new children. They are here to assist the world as we evolve into a higher vibration where love and empathy become the norm rather than the exception. They are highly enlightened children who understand the ultimate truth that there is no difference between that which is human/animal/ plant/mineral and that in truth, all are one. The social systems surrounding these children must be those which help them towards evolution instead of education. They will not respond well to harshness. Whether that harshness comes from things like loud noise, cruelty, anger, temperature extremes or unhealthy foods, they will respond to all of this by withdrawing into themselves and some may quickly develop illness because of this.

These children are born with expanded abilities as well as more of their DNA active and so they present an amazing new opportunity for the rest of society to evolve. Often, out of habit society does not embrace the new vibrations which successive generations bring to earth. Therefore, many people are not personally able to experience their vision or reach beyond what is currently thought to be possible within their lifetime. But if we stop trying to make them "fit the current mode and model" of behavior within society and instead embrace this new energy they bring, allowing it to transform us, they will guide us into the new advancement of our society, species and world.

Indigo Children- Emerging Trend or New Age Myth

The term, 'Indigo children' refers to a popular belief within the New Age community that most of the children being born today are part of a new stage in human evolution, and that they posses certain specific traits designed to help them deal with the challenges humanity will face in coming generations. Proponents of this theory believe that many of the children diagnosed with ADD and ADHD are actually part of this new generation, and that their education and care needs to be handled in a certain way so that they can manifest their gifts to their highest potential.

According to Lee Carroll and Jan Tober, editors of the first major book on the subject, the following is a list of common traits of Indigo children:

- They come into the world with a feeling of royalty (and often act like it)

- They have a feeling of "deserving to be here," and are surprised when others don't share that.

- Self-worth is not a big issue. They often tell the parents "who they are."

- They have difficulty with absolute authority (authority without explanation or choice).

- They simply will not do certain things; for example, waiting in line is difficult for them.

- They get frustrated with systems that are ritually oriented and don't require creative thought.

- They often see better ways of doing things, both at home and in school, which makes them seem like "system busters" (nonconforming to any system).

- They seem antisocial unless they are with their own kind. If there are no others of like consciousness around them, they often turn inward, feeling like no other human understands them. School is often extremely difficult for them socially.

- They will not respond to "guilt" discipline ("Wait till your father gets home and finds out what you did").

- They are not shy in letting you know what they need.

First the skeptical view. As many have noted, this list is general enough to apply to almost any child, at least some of the time, so doesn't really seem to indicate a new stage in evolution. And additional questions arise from the fact that many proponents of the theory think at least 90% of children born in recent years are Indigo children. If that is the case, what are they being compared to? When are they not around their 'own kind'? And, even allowing that this generation exhibits some specific traits, where is the proof that this is part of a new incarnational cycle? Who says it is not the result of sociological shifts in the ways kids are raised, or television, or the foods they are eating (or not eating), or any number of other factors that are different from when their parents (like me) were born?

On the supporter side, the Indigo Children theory is primarily put forth by intuitives, astrologers, and others working in the area of consciousness and energy healing. However, many experienced childcare workers, social workers, and teachers say they also recognize these trends, and have come to believe in the Indigo Child theory to some extent, even those that do not subscribe to other New Age beliefs. Part of the complication of sorting through this subject is that so many people have latched on to it to support there own individual agendas. Problems arise from the fact that lists like the one above are 'scrubbed' of any reference to the children's energies and intuitive abilities, because the authors are trying to reach a broader audience outside the New Age community, particularly the parents of ADD and ADHD children, in order to offer them alternative options (besides Ritalin, that is.) That is a worthy goal, but without some of the psycho-spiritual descriptions of what defines an Indigo child, there often doesn't seem to be enough details to assess the trends claimed.

These details do emerge in the more energy-oriented descriptions of Indigo children. The term 'Indigo' came from an intuitive who attempted to classify human energy systems according to the colors of their auras in the 1980s. She observed that many of the children being born at that time had a kind of energy pattern that she had not seen before. Over time, she (and other intuitives) saw more and more of these children being born, until it hit the current levels, where most children born are believed to be Indigos. Many claim this generation has a warrior-like spirit that is unique. As intuitive Doreen Virtue puts it in her book The Care and Feeding of Indigo Children, "It's almost like they are in boot camp being prepared for combat."

While many people are uncomfortable with certain aspects of this theory, and especially with the expectations being placed on these children, it is gaining greater credence in the mainstream because of the solutions put forth by its proponents - that our schools need to be overhauled to deal with today's children, that drugging our kids is NOT an answer, and that today's children need to be properly prepared for the world, and problems, they are going to inherit.

The Difference Between Indigo Children, Adults and Lightworkers

Indigo Children / Adults have much to do with lightworkers, and sometimes they may seem even the same thing. In this article I will show you what these two groups of extremely special people really are and what the difference is between them.

What is an Indigo Child or Adult? Indigo Children and Adults are special souls that incarnate here from other planets or dimensions. They are in this world, but they are not of it. There is a marked difference in their level of vibration to the vibrations of normal Earth souls. Contrary to what many people are saying nowadays, I believe indigos to make up no more than 0.1% of the world's population, possibly less.

Lightworkers are souls who decide to dedicate themselves to raising this world up in vibration. They are not solely indigo children and adults, though they often are. A high level of vibration is needed to sincerely desire to heal the Earth, at the very least an open heart which most Earth souls don't have. Some Earth souls, nevertheless, achieve a level of vibration equivalent to the indigo soul's vibration in the space of a single lifetime, and choose to take up a place in the healing of this Earth. The difference between those people and indigo children / adults is that indigo children / adults have a higher vibration at the soul level. Free will is a constant for all levels of vibration but when an indigo child / adult gets tied up in negative energies, they will tend to feel even more unhappy than a normal person, which will push them even stronger than a normal person to raise their vibration. On the other hand to reach a higher level of vibration an Earth soul may need to use a sustained effort which isn't necessary for an indigo child or adult. In this way indigo children / adults tend towards a different equilibrium, so to speak, and are much more likely to reach the vibration at which they can feel a strong desire to help out the Earth in its plight.
