What Are Indigo Children?

Is your child a Indigo Child?

Indigo children refers to a New Age belief that some children, especially those born after the late 1970s, represent a higher state of human evolution. The term itself is a reference to the belief that such children have an indigo colored aura. Beliefs concerning the exact nature of Indigo children vary, with some believing that they have paranormal abilities such as the ability to read minds, and others that they are distinguished from non-Indigo children merely by more conventional traits such as increased empathy and creativity.

    SOme of us are angels nothing special some remeber some do not . SOme of us are extra dimensional beings not active yet . Some of our Extra Dimensional circuitry will be activated around 2012 . Most of us have not understood a thing . 99 percent of the new age thing is nothing but illusion . It will become evident when we awaken . Same thing with the secret and the power of manifestation . That miracle only works when the karmic pattern is cleared otherwise you are not learning . Plus we exist in Timeline one and all the timelines are soon to collapse and linear thiking will not help you to survive mentally or physically . There is more to all this .... best thing is see what works for you....

    I'm not sure about the preciousness of this. I think all kids are super sensitive and need to be treated as such and at the same time brought into society with a great deal of tenderness and rationalization. I have a young relative who is truly amazing and we're all careful to preserve that tenderness but let him be a kid in the world, a mischevious little guy too. I think, honestly, that we are all these 'indigo children' but sometimes children have had to grow up too quickly or face realities that kind of knock that out of us, it's a matter of reconnecting with itas we get older, maybe through meditation, prayer, exercise, whatever cleanses. I hope these kids are receiving guidance and parenting and not just leading the adults.

    I have raised my son with as little fear as necessary. I have raised him to have a voice and use it with purpose. I really think that compassion and love are normal states of being in all children and even adults. I would agree that a higher degree of awareness is required of this era and for our evolution. It's possible that 'indigo' children exist but I doubt that it suggests a constant enlightened state of the childs' consciousness but maybe a glimpse/reflection of our collective consciousness. Regardless, it serves no purpose to make one individual better or worse than the next or put individual children on adults on pedestals. We are all equal, we are all Spiritual beings.

    I have met many Indigo children. My best friend who recently passed was indigo. He was what I was told rare because of his age(25). My youngest son is Indigo. They are very sensitive and intuitive. I have had to learn to adapt my parenting skills to adjust to being more aware and intuitive towards him which has enabled me to be more intuitive towards all around me. Being an empathic, I have a difficult time going in public places for long periods of time. Loud yelling noises disrupt my core and I am working on it with the help of my son. He can instantly see when breathing gets erratic or heart rates change among those around us and since we can communicate effectively can tell me how to handle situations that have left me immobile in previous times. I am grateful for these children who as I understand it "take on" more pain and suffering and help transform the planets current state of dense energy to a higher frequency.

    I'm quite puzzled by the subject line in the email I received... "Do these children scare you"

    Ummm... what would possibly be scary? Are there actually people playing at being fearful of children?!? I find that very odd.

    Personally I'm thrilled at the expansion of the human race and the Indigo's, coming in as the front-runners... accepting the role of 'system-busters' have been leading the way for the current group of Crystal children... many, many of whom are currently being mis-diagnosed as 'autistic' by misguided but mostly sincere 'experts'.

    The only thing hampering the children and the wonderful gifts they bring are those who have been on the planet awhile longer and are a wee bit slow or resistant to getting up to speed with the wonderful shifts going on.

    Thanks Kids!!! We're on our way... honestly. ;-)

    i was an indigo child if ever there was one.. i think because i was left to my own devices as a child .. i 'floated up with the angels' as it were! Very hard to live in the modern world this way though. Most of reality is much more earthy. What i see in these children is kids trying to live up to their parent's beliefs. It isnt coming out of them 'from source' .. so much as they have been handed an ethereal role by mum .. I could create kids like this .. or earthy little tikes .. or neurotic geniuses .. Mothers have huge power. It is likely to be hard for them to grow like this .. they will nee to seek out lots of new age environments .. and hopefully not run into too many down to earth or jaded types! Empaths rely deeply on others and if they run into someone hostile they can be really vulnerable.

    Yes, I do believe that children are full of powers (psychic). And some are blessed with even more and they are called Indigo Children. They are really blessings to the human race. . ..

    I think it is part and parcel of Human Evolution. Each generation will further evolve higher and higher until Our Mind are fully utilized and than Huamans may have attained the Intelligence and Wisdom of Demi-Gods.

    And when our Space-ships met our Cosmic Neighbour in another Galaxy........consider Man has finally became God.

    These kids are way too well-behaved to be indigo; they're just psychic. Here's a definition from 8 years ago: "Indigo children share the following common features: Extraordinary organization of dna, immunity to aids and other emerging diseases, extreme intelligence and self confidence, extra sensory perception, and paranormal abilities. Somehow we are communicating to the next generation through our semen and ova that there is trouble ahead and the kids are making the appropriate adjustments. They are the
    next evolutionary generation of our race. the phenomenon has been documented in China and the U.S. http://www.greatdreams.com/indigo.htm (BTW: These kids are hard to parent and are often "diagnosed" with a.d.d. or other invented disorders and "treated" with ritalin.)"

    Hello! It is when parents give their children immunizations that they damage their child's mind, not knowing how damaging the vaccine ingredients are! Children end up with all kinds of mental disorders as a direct result of immunizations. There is a secret & quiet war going on that parents need to be awakened to. Our government wants to depopulate large numbers of people, WHY?, so that our government can control all Americans more easier. Think this is a joke. Dr. Mercola in a Feb. 2008 report said that "properly prescribed drugs IS the leading cause of death in America." If speaking my mind makes me a scout Indigo, then good! Alot of immunizations have formaldehyde, bleach (we are not to inhale this stuff because it causes brain damage, why then would we put bleach in our children's blood. Blood circulates throughout the whole body including the brain.), aluminum, mercury, & Thimerosal is 50% mercury & extremely poisonous. Why would we put this stuff in our kids blood? The age old natural cures were heck of alot better than Dr. & Ph.D prescribed medications. If a nursing baby got sick, the mother would drink vegetable juice until the nursing baby was healthier. Ancient Indians used naturally grown herbs to do organ cleansing, parasite cleansing, & metal cleansing. Plus, they spent time with their children all through their growing years. The Indians were very bonding community type people. They were very close nitted together. They looked after each other. They gave a damn for each other. These are the relationships we need to re-establish in order for children to grow throughout their life with unconditional love. I will sum this note quickly. Here's how I look at the ethic problems & you can quote me when I say this, "If the parents have problems, the child becomes an adult with problems."

    The "new" phenomenon of Psionic abilities is actually just a wider spread recognition and awareness of them. Telepaths and Empaths have been around since creation. God gave us these abilities, in part, to further relations with Him and to aid us in understanding each other. Women have had this ability stronger than men all along however it has been chalked up as "female intuition". Typically this strength is around the T2-3 ranking and most don't even become aware of their ability until the T3-4. Unless shown the full truth of their gifts most Empaths go through their lives just thinking their more sensitive than others and leave it at that. Typically they begin to suspect and eventually discover the full truth behind it once the are strong enough to be classed E7-10 but have been using it unknowingly since strength E3. Typically a trainer will find a student when they are ready and that is usually in the T3-5 (absolute outside) and E9-10. Empaths require far less training if any at all. And before there are any inquiries or outrage yes we do "Police" our own and step in if there are "problems" to safeguard individual rights and privacy.

    Typically the gifts don't show till the person reaches their teen years but we are seeing a slight increase of children born with the gift active. In part this is because of an increase of recognized and trained mothers but that follows true to historically recognized, tracked by us, increases as people become more concentrated in cities and interaction increases between even those outside of the cities. All this said will still be chalked up as rambling of a nutjob and I am fine with that but there are those who need this info and for those I have written this.

    I will come back and make this quick note as well. What is mentioned throughout other comments and in regards to the youngest having access to things she shouldn't have known about her dead grandmother comes back not to reincarnation but to genetic memory. Most think of that as some foreign concept or something from Sci-Fi but not something that actually does exist in us. A Psionic mother is the predominant source as during the pregnancy their minds are constantly in communication but a father who bonds early in the pregnancy can also pass on his knowledge the same way. As we become more aware of ourselves and regain the lost "purity" of our DNA we will be able to access more of this. Over the centuries we have gone from a "pure" DNA to today having so much junk info that we have lost so much of our abilities including genetic memory.

    This is clearly a case of a mother who is over involved in her children's lives and needs to have everyone make them special thereby "she" will be seen as special as well. All parents want their children to be SPECIAL..but some parents will go to great lengths to play that out using whatever tools they can to set their children apart from normal people in society. Usually, these parents are insecure in some way and becoming a parent makes them feel they can use the children to elevate their status by creating special children. I feel sorry for the children because they now have to live-out this woman's expectations (fantasy) that they have magical powers, esp, blue aruras or whatever to continue to keep the dream alive for their mother. Their father has bought into this but I have not doubt it's being created by the mother and for the mother's benefit. Very sad that parents would do this to their children and make them believe they are special or better than others. They are normal children and look very confused to me. Why Diane Sawyer bought into this and put them on display I do not know. She isn't a mother so that could be why she would not realize that putting them on TV to tell the world that they have gifts other children don't have is just ridiculous! Every child is special PERIOD. These children are being misled and it will come back to haunt this family in years to come. This family may support the idea that the children are "special" but when the children grow and merge into the world at large, no one will really care about the Indigo thing and these children will be so disappointed. This happens with child movie stars as well--adulthood is a rude awakening for children who have been made to believe that they are special.

    I remember in a series by BBC on the brain, it mentioned at the end how more and more brain proteins in certain people are being discovered that never existed before. This is clearly evolution at work! I believe that everything is a manifestation of the physical dynamics of the body even down to the quantum level. Therefore it's not hard to believe that indigo persons exist. I also believe that there is a social evolution where more and more people are aware of their interconnectedness which can lead to synergy to support each other and hence raising children with advanced empathy. All in all, I believe in indigo children not in the spiritual sense but in the sense of evolutionary phenomenon arising from biological and social factors.

    if it was a true phenomenon, it'd be happening around the world, not just in a country where people could try to bullshit their way into a little fame and money.
    I'm not convinced.
