IS THIS YOU

“The words used to describe Indigos include honest, aware, highly intuitive, psychic, independent, fearless, strong-willed, and sensitive. Indigos are old souls who know who they are and where they’ve come from.”

Indigos of all ages are frustrated by the shallowness of society at large, because they like to dig deeply into things that interest them. If TLC or the Discovery channel runs an in-depth series of documentaries on a subject the Indigo is interested in, they are in hog heaven. But heaven forbid if the subject is superficially approached or lightly referred to, because Indigos want to know EVERYTHING, and RIGHT NOW. (And I say, thank God and the Cold War for the Internet.) All Indigos are aware that they are very different from the rest of the people in this world. Depending on the influences around them, this can be positive or negative. Positively influenced Indigos can grow their gifts more easily in an encouraging atmosphere. Negatively encouraged Indigos have more of a battle, which can result in a heavy build up of pent up rage. This rage has to be adequately discharged and grounded in order for the Indigo to get in touch with his or her innate gifts.

Indigos like to make up their own rules and systems as they go along. They have an innate feel for the natural order of things, but to many people this ‘order’ looks a heck of a lot like total chaos. Perhaps it is in some way, but to the Indigo creating this system, it is holographic, and makes perfect sense to them. Indigos aren’t deliberately messy and cluttered, but they really dislike having to disassemble carefully created stacks of items or put away materials that they may need in the construction of their ideas and projects. Indigos of all ages are also great multi-taskers. This may be mistaken for attention deficit, because to the observer, it appears that the Indigo begins many things, and then bounces randomly from one thing to another, leaving them unfinished. But if you look at it from a holographic point of view, you will see that all of these little projects are related in sometimes extremely obscure ways, and that all of them are thought objects and experiments in some line of inquiry the Indigo is exploring. When the thought or project is concluded, and the inquiry answered to the Indigo’s satisfaction, all the components will be complete to the point where their usefulness and contribution to the whole ends. It is a whole new way of thinking- we tend to think in lightning bolts and bursts.

When Indigo kids are ready, they, like me, will want to fly the coop at the first opportunity. I bailed at 19, and never looked back. I still love my family, but I must be independent. Do not let this sadden you, parents- it is simply that waiting 18 years to do things we were born knowing had to be done can be chafing. Please be patient with our impatience, and understanding when we make the inevitable errors. This may surprise you, but many Indigos may eschew or quit college and either go straight into the workforce, or go to vocational school. Don’t let this bother you- we’ve been there, and done that enough to see that the Emperor of Education is stark naked. Many of us, myself included, will become self-taught, skillful researchers and library-divers. When our mature gifts come on line, there will be nothing unknown to us. We will have the ability to literally pull what we need to know out of the air. We follow our own threads of learning, and often know more about certain subjects than so-called experts. And why pay thousands of dollars to learn stuff that you can dig up in a library or on the Web for free? Don’t whine at them about the ‘opportunities we’ll miss’ or the ‘money we won’t make’. We know what the price of those opportunities is, and have no desire to sell our souls to some faceless corporation just to have a comfier gilded cage. Many of us will be ‘anti’ consumers, turning our noses up at the ‘magpie mentality’ of the consumer culture. (Magpies love collecting lots of pretty, shiny things.) 

Most Indigos will distinguish between their vocation (calling to Mission) and their profession- their career. Many will find some sort of way to combine the two, and will be very frustrated until they can successfully do so. When they do, it will seem as if life is on rails, it runs so smoothly, and “work” will be physical stuff, like raking leaves or hauling firewood. They probably will deign to work for someone else, but on their terms, and will quickly vote with their feet if things turn sour for them. “Retirement” is a myth to them- they innately understand that they will always have some sort of profession, but they do disdain having to ‘grub’ for money. Older Indigos have an inherent distaste for big government and interfering systems, and quietly long for true independence from ‘systems’ like the economy, money, and salaried work. But they also have the common sense and intelligence to make these systems work for them, and understand that overt street protesting, violence and anarchy are not the way to go. Some will even hold their noses and involve themselves personally in these systems, using their Mission instincts to quietly change them for the better from within. “Some consider Indigos to be bizarre. These assertive individuals are born with their spiritual memories intact. Many parents report that their Indigo children regale them with vivid details of past lives or recent encounters with spiritual beings.” 

All Indigos have clear memories of past lives, sometimes bringing confusion to us as youngsters. If our physical appearance or gender is different, we may remark upon it or even complain about it until our identity settles in at our seventh year. It took me a while to get used to my appearance, gender, and its limitations. I am comfortable with myself, now. Even so, some Indigos cling so tightly to their ‘old’ identity that they may suffer from gender dissonance, and may even get their gender changed. 

All Indigos develop a nose for synchronicity and serendipity, and permit ourselves to be used by our Higher Selves as ‘tools’ of chance, to join a conversation here, a newsgroup there, read a book elsewhere, run into an article later. We are constantly stringing metaphysical beads in our minds, and marveling at the glorious chain of events we are creating with them. We grow to love cooperating with the Cosmic in this manner, and when we’ve been permitted to act as a tool for Spirit, we are thrilled and humbly grateful to be of service. Look for some great metaphysical books and archaeological discoveries in the next decade or three. Those of us who are obsessed about our past lives enough to put up with academia will go digging in places that ‘experts’ will laugh at. Those same ‘experts’ will cry when the cocky undergraduate actually finds something and gets the credit for it. Many ‘rediscoveries’ will be made, and the greater world will learn that mankind has been around for hundreds of thousands of years longer than current theory states. Look for some major rewrites about how long this planet has hosted humanity, and what catastrophes it has suffered. The Earth is a laboratory with a cosmic ‘reset’ button determined by the planet itself. And look for our youngsters finding ‘micro’ evidence that human civilization has existed for far longer than we ever knew. Our scientific techniques and sieves are becoming finer and finer. They will be instrumental in validating these discoveries. 

As a general rule, Indigos grow to become pretty stable emotionally. We are not liable to cry at artificial stimuli like movies and such, or get romantically fluffy, or involve ourselves too deeply in others’ problems. We may be accused of being detached or uncaring, but this isn’t true at all- the Indigo simply understands where his or her own life ends and another’s begins. Indigos innately understand that people are responsible for their own lives and actions. We do not suffer fools or deliberately manipulative people gladly. And we can be pretty blunt with our disdain for such people.What is really interesting is that these abilities will strengthen and new ones reveal themselves as the Indigo ages. Many Indigo psychic abilities are ‘locked away’ until the individual reaches a certain age- usually around age 28 or 29. This is a built-in ‘safety feature’ because the mental maturity to handle these gifts isn’t really complete until the late twenties or early thirties. All Indigos will have an Dark Night/Awakening experience around this time. This coincides with their Saturn’s Return, where their True Mission manifests itself, and they have had enough time and experience as adults to try, test, fine-tune and learn to trust their innate psychic and intuitive abilities. Younger Indigos may be aware of their mission from childhood, but until this period of their life, they may have difficulty staying on course because of their innate curiosity and love of experiment and exploration. The return to the inner mission can be rough. The apparent lateness of this ‘bloom’ or Awakening is due to the longer lifespan of surviving Indigos, but this period is experienced by all people, Indigo or not. Even the early Alpha and Beta generations will live considerably longer than their peers, and will exhibit a youthful appearance well into middle age. 

The thirties are a decade of rediscovery and recovery of the extremely high-end psychic abilities, like instant access to the Akashic realms, real time remote viewing, Clear channeling and interaction with inner Guidance, instant assessment of people’s thoughts and intent, deliberate synchronicity (sheer ‘dumb’ luck) simultaneous time-hopping (paralleling) and other intriguing Gifts. The healing gifts uncover themselves in the third decade also. These youngsters will grow up to become formidable healers, should they choose to fine-tune this particular gift. Most of the thirties will be spent discovering and fine tuning these spiritual Gifts. The fun really begins in the early forties, and the high power aspects of the mature Indigo begin to emerge. So, if your kid seems to be brilliant, but scattered slacker, or turns his or her nose up at traditional education and career opportunities, take heart- the mature inner core soul knows how to bide its time, and will do so, although it might be frustrating for you at times. Remember- it is their life, and they chose to return. You were their guardian and teacher. 

An unusual characteristic of Indigos is that they frequently appear androgynous. It is often difficult to tell if Indigos are male or female, homosexual, heterosexual, bisexual, or asexual. Their sexuality is not their primary concern however; it is their spirituality. Many Indigos may choose not to marry or have children. We can care less about sex. We are not interested in reproducing. That is not our purpose here. Many of us volunteered to return for the task at hand, and have no plans to ‘go native’. 

Religions both fascinate and repulse all Indigos. They may be raised in a particular faith, but will end up shedding this religious overlay as they grow their own internal wisdom and spiritual discernment. The (re)discovery that the Kingdom of God dwells within them is the catalyst that empowers the Indigo, and has been described as a genuine Awakening moment- akin to the Christian born again experience. Once this gnosis has been achieved, and the Indigo becomes fully conscious, then their innate gifts begin to truly manifest. Unlike most mainstream religious experiences, the personal inner Awakening of the Indigo is a private thing, and is generally not evangelized. People who can discern auras will spot the unmistakable crown flare of the Awakened Indigo, which shines like a beacon in the spiritual realm. Many Indigos become experts on many religions- dogma and ritual are fascinating to them, and they study them for their use as tools of Awakening. Sometimes they will even join a religious sect for a while, but generally do not stay. 

“It’s as if Indigos have both the yin and yang, male and female qualities within them.” 

We resist cultural gender programming. I have been told that I ‘think like a guy’ although I am a woman. If you test your Indigo children for ‘gender’ oriented abilities, you will find that each sex tests just as well in the ‘opposite’ skill sets. So girls will have high spatial and mathematical abilities, and boys will have high linguistic and cognitive abilities. Left-handedness and ambidextrousness will be the norm, rather than the exception. This is because we are not hemispheric and divided in our thinking and mental function. Instead, we are integrated and holographic in our thought processes, and our ambidextrousness is a reflection of that inner function. We go for the simplest and most painless and useful solution to any problem we encounter, even if it seems to ‘go against the grain’ of gender programming. The old left/right, male/female brain paradigms will not fit us- our brains are integrated, and use whichever hemisphere that solves the problem. This may lead to the appearance of gruff arrogance socially, but these rough edges will be polished in time. Indigos do not suffer fools gladly.
