Indigo Children!

I'm not so sure about indigo children... the definition really is SO broad. It's even been claimed that almost all recently born children are indigo children. Also, by definition, they are supposed to be rather egocentric... I just can't imagine a group of egocentric people making a positive revolutionary change.

 

Ah ! But I didn't say "revolution" I said "EVOLUTION..."

And EVOLUTION involves some bit of time...

 

I was referring to the op

 

Well, the point was there to be made; still, pardon moi madame...

 

I will probably be labeled as a bit nutty, but I believe that I am an indigo.

 

Don't worry,I guess I'm just another crazy one lol but I believe in indigos and believe I maybe one.



"All we are saying is give peace a chance"

 

It's been happenin; since the beggining of Human existance, these enlightened ones coming to 'Light' the way. It is our shot of evolution we recive every 50 or 60 yrs.

The children of each generation is more intelegent then the last, they are also stronger and better looking, on an average.

I have been on Earth and wittnessed/wittenessing four generations over the last 57 yrs. Me n my hub raised 8 kids together, 6 of our own and a few others on occation, we have 14 grandchildren and two greats. Our oldest is 38, and youngest is 22. With our great grand babies coming, you can see the subtle differences in each generation as they grow and become adults. Our place was always full of kids of all ages and we had a chance to watch, listen and teach a lot of different groups of kids.

I have wittnessed/experienced my generation and what we did to change the world, or system as it were, and what my kids generation did with the knowledge we gave them to bring about change. I don't see a lot of change from that generation. I see what they are teaching their kids and what is being taught in the schools and things are not progressing in a healthy way. I don't see any big cange happenin' there either..just getting worse Karma wise, very violent

The shot of evalution from the 1900s wore off( carbon engine, sanitation) and in the 50s we got another dose and brought forth The HIPPIE and we went to outter space with that generation and opened a new spirituality, that shot wore off and we are now due for a booster shot, which seems to have been labled Indigo Children.

They are not the first nor will they be the last.. in each our own time we have advanced further then the one that preceeded us.

It's all recycled information. it goes around and around to full circle and then we start again. Each cycle brings us further into a higher consciouness level and realizations of necessity, due to over population and low resource we have become a world of commerce and new ways to cover supply and demand are needed.

With the need comes the cure, as our conscious awareness become more oneminded we develop a higher conscious level and create chemical changes within our bodies that produce a higher evaluted offspring.

There are some that do not evolve and there lays the problem, they do not want change, they want to be the powerfull ones that lord over others, being stuborn and greedy, creating negitive energy. The money mongers that have no care for what they do to humanity or the planet we live on.

It's a balance, when thing get out of balance and everything starts to come crashing down..The Divine Source of Creation manifests a Becon Of Light or shot of evalution to balance things out. To take us on a different course and to focus our energies on something positive.

That's my thoughts on the subject.

I do agree that children with each generation become more "intelligent" (whatever that means, since no one can really define or test intelligence - I guess they are more factually intelligent)... but I feel they are also losing skills with each generation as the skill no longer becomes necessary with reliance on technology (is that good or bad? I don't know... guess it could be argued both ways). I wonder what's happening to creativity as well, so many kids end up as zombies in front of tv and video games. I don't see how it can be argued that children are better looking then previous generations, aside from having more access to things like braces and plastic surgery. ...and as far as them being stronger and healthier... sure, kids who grow up in environments with adequate healthcare and nutrition are much stronger and healthier, but that certainly isn't world-wide.

Part of our cerebral growth in modern society occurred because we now have the luxury of thinking on things. We don't have to fear that a lion is going to jump out behind a tree at any moment and attack. So our minds have changed with each generation in a subtle way that accumulates over time... but we are still the same basic humans as those from 10,000 years ago. Our bodies haven't caught up with our minds. So yes, we are more cerebral... but it's actually insufficient for our hunter/gather, fight or flight bodies. So now we have an increase in depression, anxiety, etc. It isn't until a MAJOR evolutionary shift, that would only comes from mutation... (for instance, perhaps we'd change so that when we are afraid we'd receive an increase of oxygen to our brains instead of to our bodies so we think clearer instead of have a panic attack) ...that's when I believe we would really witness a change in humanity. Not sure if that will ever happen... and if it does, it certainly won't be in any of our lifetimes.

Those are my thoughts anyway... not sure if it made sense.

 

Nicely said Shameless Heifer... As the Buddhists would say, it is the greed, anger, and ignorance that has to be overcome. And I like your point about overpopulation; experts have been warning about that for centuries, ever since Thomas Robert Malthusian put forth his theories on the subject. Population must be reduced to the 2-billion-person carrying capacity of the biosphere ("Earth") and then maintained at that level. That level could be reached easily by every man and woman producing only "one" child "each" for the next century/plus. The best and only way to reach that level is by ending poverty, the equal distribution of wealth, and good health/family planning;particularly the education and economic/social empowerment of women...
We do have great "evolutionary" leaders and thinkers in every generation or so. We had the great "Trancendentalists" like Thoreau, Emerson and Whitman. We had the great minds of Hemingway, Stein, Fitzgerald, Pound, etc. of "The Lost Generation." We've had Kerouac, Burroughs and Ginsberg, etc. of "The Beat Generation." We had the great leaders of the more recent "Hippie Generation." and perhaps we now have the great evolutionaries of "The Indigo Generation."
Share the wealth of your minds. Knowledge "should not" mean power for the few who hoard it; Knowledge "should be" freedom for everyone when it it is shared liberally...

 

Hi

Thanksfor starting this Thread didnt imagine it here, yes i know that i am an indigo child i think the difference is allways different between them and other young people because everyone is different

I think INdigos have amazing Healing Power, chave a vast intuitive Knowledge and bring new energies into this world

I dont think that there going to go about things as the oomers have done, i think there will be completely new ways of beeing free and bringing peace to this earth

I dont know what, but i can feel it.

Peace Salivrah

 

thanks Salivrah... very true. I'm glad I started this thread as well; it took a bit to take off, but I think people are really taking notice. I'm not sure if I'm an Indigo myself... I have most of the signs, but I'm not making any assumptions unless I had someone who knows what they're talking about tell me.
Nonetheless I think the Indigo Theory is very exciting and could very well mean great new changes for this world...

 

I have been reading a good bit on Indigos since I first read this thread. There isn't that much information out there online though.
For those of you who believe that you are an indigo, how does it effect your daily life? What "signs" do you have?
I'm just curious.

 

interesting my cousin said something funny today that blew my aunt and uncle out of the water, we were peeling potatoes and she says to us, why dont u get the camera, it would be so funny to have a picture of this, just then my aunt walks into the room and takes a picture of us, i dont know if it has anything to do with being an indigo child herself, still, it defatley showed some precognitive ability on her part

 

I've been told on multiple occasions that I was Indigo. At first, I thought that it was another one of those trend things that yuppies make a huge deal about for a month, and then forget all about it. After I researched and nixed that thought, I felt like I was being self-centered thinking that I was something "special" or "different". But then I realized, I am different and special. And it's not self centered, it's the way it is, and i should feel proud. And even though being different sometimes isolates me from my peers, I know that there are better things to come, and that this isn't even the beginning yet.


I found this on a website months ago, hopefully some of you will find it interesting, and maybe discover something about yourselves!

!!!Please note, anyone could have a few of these traits, but Indigo Adults have most or all of these 25 characteristics

 

Sounds like every dropout loser I know.

 

Well, there will either be a movement towards peace, or there will be a whole lot more school shootings and crime when these Indigo kids are thwarted in any way from what they feel is their entitlement.

Personally, I think the whole "Indigo kids" movement is just a bunch of Yuppie moms and dads who want to think that their ADHD kids are actually *more* functional than normal kids, rather than less functional.

It's not a negative viewpoint, it's just a more realistic viewpoint.
Every generation starts out idealistic and thinking that it's going to be the greatest generation. Age brings on a clearer perception and, for some, the shift to "conservative fundies".

Winston Churchill said: "Any man who is under 30, and is not a liberal, has no heart; and any man who is over 30, and is not a conservative, has no brains."

The message we can take from that is that it's right and proper to gauge the world with your heart and emotions (the source of liberal idealism) when you are young, and it's also right and proper to focus on logic and reason (the source of cold, hard conservativism) when you mature. This may be the one true answer to the question: "What happened to all the hippies?" They grew up and changed their minds. As much as you doubt it will happen to your generation, you will find yourself in the same boat, twenty or thirty years from now.

Speaking as one who witnessed this change in himself and the vast majority of his friends, I can say that most of the old-school hippies still believe in peace, social justice, and an end to war, but there is a whole lot of stuff about which we have generally become much more conservative.

 

I would like to hear from an Indigo who has psychic experiences and electrical sensitivity. When I read the list of symptoms, I matched all but those. Those are the red flags for me. Is it really possible for someone to have those experiences, and if so, will they still be peace loving?

 

I completely agree that this is the realistic thing to say. In my above post, I mentioned that what you said was my exact first thought after I researched Indigo children and adults.

I think the most important thing to remember is not to just assume someone is a particular way just because of the "group" of humans that they are. Don't even bother to worry about "sub-groups" or anything like that. Even though part of a group, we are all completely different people, and we all have our own purpose on the earth.

Obviously, you cannot know for sure if you are Indigo, but I've had people tell me that I was, and I obviously can't change that. I do not have ADD or ADHD- I think that the reason I'm Indigo is because I think in a different, and maybe more innovative way. I think that's the reason the OP put this in the "Hippies" section, because a hippie thinks differently, and had different ideals. I could be wrong....



Peace&Love

 

I recognize all but a couple of your list of characteristics in myself. I've had no "other dimensions" experiences or awareness. I have no desire to "seek meaning", as I am comfortable within my life. For all the others, I've had either extremely strong experiences, or at least a pretty fair familiarity with.

I took up Electronics, because I was tired of electrical stuff that would quit working or not work when I got it. I figured I'd better learn how to fix that stuff myself, or it would cost me a fortune in repairs... Battery operated watches last about a week on my arm before they go dead - even when I put new batteries in. I'm like a walking short circuit. I always figured it had to do with skin moisture or conductivity. <shrug>

I sucked at high school and barely got through (I never did ANY homework), but when I discovered what I wanted to do, I was a top 10% student. I just figured it was a lack of interest in what they were saying. <again, shrug>

I've always dabbled in painting, sculpture, poetry, prose, music (play 8 different instruments) and just about anything artistic. (not that I'm all that *good* at any of it.) I just thought it was interesting.

That "need to know why" thing has gotten me in more trouble with bosses and authority than I care to think about. I can't seem to keep my mouth shut until I fully understand the whys. I just figured it was the "libra" in me. I have a very strong sense and need for justice. I sort of figured everyone did.

I've had all kinds of premonitions, intuitions, hunches, and lucky guesses all my life. (It never helped me with the lottery, though.) People hate to watch movies with me, because I can usually figure out where it's going long before anyone else. My daughter absolutely hates this, especially if she's seen the movie and is waiting for me to be shocked by a twist ending. I'll usually guess it early on.
I always thought that it was just paying attention to the details.

I tend to tear up pretty easily at what I actually consider to be fairly dopey sentimental moments in movies and life. It's been embarrassing for me, at times, because I get choked up and my voice will break, or I'll wipe that tear away at a pivotal moment. Very "un-manly", you know? I guess that's a sort of empathy

Anyway... I don't consider myself "Indigo". I'm certainly not ADHD. I have wondered, from time to time, why I seem to see the world a bit differently than most of the people around me... but I just took that as individuality, not something particularly special.

I think some people are just tuned in a little tighter than others. Whether that's something special or just a peculiarity - an asset or a liability - is hard to tell. I always figured it was just a peculiarity.

 

pfffft! on the "Indigo Child" ego trip. i haven't met a child yet that isn't profoundly intutitive. we all start out that way but then we end up having to live in the real world where being that kind of psy open isn't condusive to survival. this "Indigo Child" crap is just a label new agey parents afix to their kid so to make themselves feel special. doing so doesn't do the kid any favors as the kid adopts the "Indigo Child" ego which only serves to create self important arrogance and excuses for rude behaviors. i've met a couple of "Indigo" children whose parents have filled thier little noggins with how "diiferent" and "special" they are. the kids were exceedingly full of themselves, smugly looking down their noses at me, apparently expecting me to be somehow impressed enough to bow and kiss their lotus feet. i was certainly impressed but only with the disdainful attitude these "Indigo" childen displayed. i mean, wow! what rude little assholes!

everyone views the world differently from everyone else. it's why we're all individuals. to create new special labels for what is entirely natural is rediculous. the world needs a generation of self important little sat gurus like we need more nukes.

PS. hmmm i just realized i had posted on this thread before saying pretty much the same thing. however, it's not the same thread but a second one by the same OP. seems BloodyNailPolish is REALLY into the idea that she and her offspring are the next step up the evolutionary ladder. i guess she just wants affirmation that she and her kid are oh so very special.

save us! save us! save the world, oh wondrous Indigo Children! **tosses some rose petals**
