I recently went to an angel reader here who told me that I am an indigo child. I am uncertain if I am an indigo child and wonder if anyone knows a good way to tell.
On a side note, does anyone know a way to connect with another spirit that may be very far away. I have a twin who is in another state that I want to send some good vibes to.

Sat, February 9, 2008 - 10:40 PMJust thinking about her, thinking about how you two would have fun and shareing laughter, by this you are already sending her good vibes, specially by good memories to. If you daydream about how much fun it would be to see eachother, the universe makes arrangements for you two to someday be together for a fun day. Your indigo cause you keep trying... most people these days are indigo.. just ask youself if you are, and if you feel good about it from your heart... deep down you will know. A good hint also can be if you have always been fond of purple or blueish purple colours. -

Re: Indigo Child or not?
Wed, February 13, 2008 - 6:09 AMHere's an excerpt from Doreen Virtue, an angel intuitive who has written about Indigo Children let's see if you fit the list, if not don't worry.
1. They come into the world with a feeling of royalty ( and often act like it)
2. They have a feeling of "deserving to be here,: and are suprised when others don't share that
3. Self-worth is not a big issue. They often tell the parents "who they are."
4. They have difficulty with absolute authority (authority without explanation or choice).
5. They simply will not do certain things; for example, waiting in lin e is difficult for them.
6. They get frustrated with systems that are ritual oriented and don't require creative thought.
7. 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).
8. They seem antisocial unless they're with their own kind. If there are no others ol like consciousness around them, they often turn inward, feeling like no other human understands them. School is often extrememly difficult for them socially.
9. They will not respond to "guilt" discipline ("Wait until your father gets home.")
10. They aren't shy about letting you know what they need.
Hopefully this helps.

Re: Indigo Child or not?
Wed, February 13, 2008 - 7:12 PMHi Angela =)
Even though Doreen Virtue seems to be fairly on the ball with indigo's etc, I must admit I get so sick of seeing these "checklists" around... whilst there is truth to them, you don't have to fit them all... and there is more to being "indigo" than a checklist! At the end of the day "indigo" is just a label... however, being humans, it seems that we have a need to label things to understand them!
Overall, the whole indigo thing will either feel right to you, or it won't... Does being indigo resonate with you? Did the angel reader tell you why she thought you were an indigo?
Two people within a month told me they thought I was an indigo.. one person could see my aura, the other couldn't but recognised me cos her son was an indigo too. I had no idea what it meant, so of course like you and others, I looked to the internet for an answer! When I found out what it meant, so many things suddenly made sense to me... and the things that had made me feel "different" now felt more like a gift than a curse! Now I celebrate my uniqueness instead of fear/dislike it.
A few things that I feel in myself made me realise that "yes, I am indigo" are the following:
(by the way, this is just my personal view of myself, other people may very well be different! Also, these things can be seen in non-indigo people too, but for me personally, these things together are what I feel are indigo-related in me):
*I feel like I HAVE to have outdoors time in order to function properly.. I feel like a "natural person in an unnatural world".. I feel more at home when connecting with nature.
*I feel that I am highly creative and I am intelligent, however this intelligence manifests in a variety of ways - mostly in "right-brain" dominant ways (i.e. intuitive, creative, abstract problem solving etc).
*I do not have ADHD, however I can definitely have trouble concentrating for prolonged periods of time, I "get" things pretty quick so if I am bored, I drift off... also, I can be impatient because I remember past times where things would instantly manifest, and so when things take awhile I feel as though my time is being wasted.
*I feel that I am here to serve humanity with a global purpose of assisting the awakening process by empowering people to re-member who they really are, and why they are here. I have done a life coaching course to assist me in this process, as well I have also done reiki and do a lot of work with crystals. I find myself feeling a call to study more healing modalities too!
*I know that I have star origins... I am aware of my multi-dimensionality and have been since I was young. I have also had flashbacks to un-earthly places.
*I have always been the "black sheep" amongst my peers... they always used to call me a "hippy" even tho I didn't think so.. I guess I was just always more in tune with nature and animals than them, and I rarely conformed to the "norm"... I just do what feels right for me.
*I hate bullshit, and I can smell out a rat when one's around =) I see straight through people who are fake. I am repelled by the whole "superficial" facade... so when I meet people, I can tend to seem a little quiet, but usually thats cos I hate making the chit-chat. As soon as people get to know me, I come right outta my shell!
*I have not developed my psychic abilities, and I am not clairvoyant or anything, but I feel that I am in touch with my intuition and I am highly sensitive to energy, as well as being empathic. I am also sensitive to what goes into/on my body... I try to eat as much fresh, healthy food as possible as I find my moods can be greatly affected by my blood sugar... eating foods that are slow-energy releasing foods (low GI) seem to stabalise this.
*I get frustrated at waiting for things to happen... I am not the most patient person, but I am wokring on that!
These are just a few things, but as i said, everyone is different! I am sure you will know if you are or not... one way to find out the truth: place a hand over your heart, close your eyes and ask yourself "Am I indigo?"... then quiet your mind, focus on your heart and listen for the answer... your heart is your centre of truth, it will tell you whats true if you know how to listen =)
Love, Light and Learning,

Re: Indigo Child or not?
Thu, February 14, 2008 - 10:03 PMThanks Carla =)
I find that it is important that people realise "indigo"s can vary a lot in nature... obviously we are ALL different and unique, but I think that there are definitely certain qualities, traits and needs that are indigo in nature. I have been doing a LOT of learning and research about indigo's over the past 2 years, and whilst there is a lot of varying information out there, it always comes down to what is right for YOU.. one person may fit one writer's idea of what it is to be indigo, another person may not fit it but then they discover another person's view of what it means to be indigo, and they find that resonates with them deeply... it all depends on who you are and what your truth is!
I hope that I can assist those who ARE indigo to realise this... that you don't HAVE to have a tick next to all the boxes of the "checklist" and there are other traits which I am noticing which are not the ones on the list, so to speak =)
Love,
Shell

Sat, May 17, 2008 - 10:32 AMHow best to help an indigo child, who I can recognize as such, he is searching and I feel will fall from the path soon if not shown the light. -
-
Re: Indigo Child or not?
Sat, May 17, 2008 - 11:10 AMdon't 'worry' so much ~ "falling from the path" is just a part of the path of an Indigo (& human being) ~ have faith in yourself (to react appropriately, when the time comes) & the child (to make the personal decisions best suited for their destiny ~ hint: they are most likely NOT the decisions you would make in their place)
holding the space of faith, love & compassion is of great help to the light
love all-ways,

Re: Indigo Child or not?
Sat, May 17, 2008 - 11:32 PMThank you for your response...I work with homeless street kids and this young man is definitely an Indigo child...he has been homeless for over 2 years and his life keeps falling off track, I believe due to some trauma. One can see he is searching, can see that he has much depth, but I fear if he has no education about himself as an Indigo, he will be lost...I see great healing energy within him and much possibility, but feel it will not happen if he is not pointed in the right direction, because as wise and ancient as he is....he knows nothing. How can I lead him toward the light? He recognizes what comes from within me and feels that, but does not understand the "attraction" for lack of a better word. I am holding space that that energy he feels from me will in some way focus him for a moment...perhaps long enough to reach out for what he needs to begin to complete his path. His aura is so beautiful and he struggles so within the context of this life ... I'm afraid he will succumb to the beating life seems to be handing him. I just want to help him over that hurdle and enlighten him to who he is...where does that start? But then again, perhaps he must struggle through this to BE who he is as an Indigo child? Perhaps this is the start for him...the beginning of awareness? -

Re: Indigo Child or not?
Sun, May 18, 2008 - 3:15 PMAs an older Indigo I'll tell you this much from my won experience. The first man I ever truly was head over heals in love with was also Indigo. When I met him he was 17, and I was 20. He too had been living on the streets for a few years. He does not to the best of my knowledge know that he is Indigo on an intellectual level. He got heavily involved with drugs shortly after we stopped seeing each other. And was still living on the streets when I ran into him in San Fran ten years later, panhandling me for money. But then he got himself into recovery and now had a very nice myspace page and several CD's he's produced in the last five years. He's doing just fine and I now know what it was I was attracted to in him.
Here's my point: don't assume it is your responsibility to save him, lead him to the light or point him in the right direction. All spirits, regardless of what color his aura is, have the capacity to turn towards the light like sunflowers reaching for the sun. On some level he already KNOWS he's Indigo. And Indigos aren't the only one's out there who have their own light shining through. We all do, and we all have the capacity to seek the light within ourselves as well as towards God. The best you can do for him is; when you see him seeking that light, be there and let your own inspiration tell you what is necessary in that moment. And yes, if his life keeps falling off track , I would say it's probably part of the over all plan he has for his own life, which started the day he was born. -

Re: Indigo Child or not?
Sun, February 17, 2008 - 8:05 AMi was recently told i was an indigo too, although im not too sure either... reading those questions did no good for me..
then to further annoy myself when i think about being an indigo i want to rebel! i dont like the whole idea of being "branded", being confined to a set of ideas of how these children are.. why we have to label everything to make ourselves feel comfortable is quite lost on me.
but hey maybe the constant questioning,searching and rebelling..thats the way it should be :D
welcome :) -

Re: Indigo Child or not?
Sun, February 17, 2008 - 4:15 PMyeah, categories are kind of silly. but perhaps that comes with the territory: it is possible that the methods in which we cognitively organize the contents of our brain tend to utilize categories because they tend to be a relatively efficient method. don't get me wrong, i think terms like rainbow, star, and indigo are redundant and mostly unneccessary.
what i am trying to say is that on a very fundamental level it would appear our brains use a sort of basic filing system to categorize information in a way that is easier to retrieve it. its merely a retrieval system. that's just from what i have studied and experienced, not the end all interpretation of neuroscience.

Re: Indigo Child or not?
Sun, February 17, 2008 - 6:47 PM"on a very fundamental level it would appear our brains use a sort of basic filing system to categorize information in a way that is easier to retrieve it. its merely a retrieval system"
Exactly. Our brains are not unlike computers in that sense. For us to interpret and understand information, we must find a way to either link it to things we already know by finding the "file" it corresponds to and automatically grouping things, or create a new "folder" in our brains for the new information. A label is just a way to understand a grouping of information under one or two words... the label itself doesn't necessarily mean anything much... but it makes communication much easier when you can refer to things through one or two words as opposed to several chunks of information!
There have been discussions about "labels" on this tribe before... and at the end of the day, I think most people agree that "indigo's" are not too fond of labels because it is in our inherent nature to go beyond the societal "norm", and from my experience, we resist being pigeon-holed at all costs! But perhaps in doing so we have created our own.. or more likely that others have created one especially for us!

Re: Indigo Child or not?
Mon, February 18, 2008 - 7:36 AMThank you all for your generous insight. After reading through much of this, I guess I do "fit the mold" of an indigo. The most recent event that stands out in my mind that confirmed my suspisions was my marriage about 2 years ago. I did not want a typical invite everyone you know type of wedding where people just come to get drunk and dance. So, I opted for a ceremony in the gardens of a bed and breakfest with only 15 guests. (all immediate family members.) For some reason I needed to share my special moment with nature and only those who were closest to me. Many were upset but I found strength in knowing that I was going "outside the norm". To this day, I would not have done it differently.
Thanks again for all of the coments.

Re: Indigo Child or not?
Mon, February 18, 2008 - 9:11 PMAll of these little boxes that we divide each other into . I think we all limit our potential by letting others put us in groups .
We are all family and are all connected .
Let us not focus on who is superior , but on the actions of the self .
We are all very special children sharing these experiences together . There does come a huge responsibility and remember cause and effect -
-
Re: Indigo Child or not?
Wed, February 20, 2008 - 9:20 PMI agree Project, although who is labelling anyone as superior?
Indeed, we are all connected and are part of a Greater Whole. Everyone is unique and has their own special place within the Whole... each of us has unique and special gifts and talents and purpose for being here now, which contribute to the wellbeing and smooth running of the Whole. Each of us is significant, and is but one "expression of consciousness experiencing itself subjectively", to quote David Hicks.
We are one and we are all unique... no-one single person is superior.
Love,

Re: Indigo Child or not?
Tue, March 11, 2008 - 5:47 PMI have the same problem. I really want to know if im indigo im born in 1995 and my mom is spiritual and says she sees me with a blue aura but I don't seem to have most of the powers other indigo children say they have. I have brown eyes, I love the color blue, I am one f the best drawers in my grade, I don't swear, I never get annoyed. I am pretty quiet, and I have allot of friends.
I am just wondering. Am I indigo. A reponse would be greatly appreciated -

Re: Indigo Child or not?
Wed, March 26, 2008 - 5:38 PMDave: You are a little young to be an Indigo...it seems the last of the Indigos were born in the late 80s. HOWEVER, it is likely that you are a Crystal...the sister to Indigos. Crystals first began arriving in the mid 90s, and are greatly increasing in population with each birth. Crystals share many of the same characteristics with Indigos (a deep connection to nature, water, rocks, the arts; feeling within of a higher purpose here on earth, etc) but don't tend to suffer from the same inner battles that many Indigos do. Crystals often begin speaking late in childhood (3 or 4 b/c verbal communication is only one form for them) and may have clarvoiyent and telepathic powers. It seems that both Indigos and Crystals will be leading us into the next phase of the Divine plan...a rebirth of the earth. Very exciting! There are some good website giving insight to both Indigos and Crystals.
The Indigo gift has been in my family for quite some time. In some ways I identify, and others not so much. So, I am still searching within. -

Re: Indigo Child or not?
Sun, April 6, 2008 - 6:14 AM.....I've been told my son is a crystal child but i haven't looked into it much, however, what you've written Erika has sparked my interest as my son is 3 and a half and still not speaking clearly - this doesn't worry me at all as he is very intelligent, he often tells me in the morning that he was 'flying' in the night. Now I understand his obsession with rocks!!! he picks them up every time we go for a walk and brings them home....also sticks, I thought that was just a boy thing.....
Something else that I've noticed is that even though he is a powerhouse of energy, extremely active, adventurous and monkey like, he has a beautiful sensitivity and softness.....
I agree though, labels can create division....and they can also be beneficial for those that are new to these ideas and don't know how to 'handle' their kids, the ones looking for practical help without resorting to Ritalin or other harmful drugs...

Can anyone explain the significance of this sequence of numbers? I am born 11/11 and throughout my life have and still see this sequence of numbers at that time of the day. I will turn to look and there it is. I also see other double patterns of numbers such as 4:44, 2:22 3:33, etc, although I am most itnerested in the 11-11. -
