There are people that believe honestly that there are children that represent a higher state of evolution, according to New Age beliefs. These children happen to have an indigo aura around them, hence the name “Indigo Children”. It has been said that this phenomena has been first discovered by Edgar Cayce, who classified people’s personalities according to the hue of their auras.
Usually each universal age is accompanied by a preponderance of people with that life color. For instance now most adults are either Blue or Violet, the two colors with the attributes most needed in this the Violet Age of transition. During the next age, the Indigo Age, Indigo colors will be the norm (Understanding Your Life Through Color 1982).
According to Nancy Ann Tappe,
The Indigo phenomenon has been recognized as one of the most exciting changes in human nature ever documented in society. The Indigo label describes the energy pattern of human behavior which exists in over 95% of the children born in the last 10 years … This phenomena is happening globally and eventually the Indigos will replace all other colors. As small children, Indigo’s are easy to recognize by their unusually large, clear eyes. Extremely bright, precocious children with an amazing memory and a strong desire to live instinctively, these children of the next millennium are sensitive, gifted souls with an evolved consciousness who have come here to help change the vibrations of our lives and create one land, one globe and one species. They are our bridge to the future.
So, it is believed that this generation will ultimately help save the world. And I can absolutely believe this as more and more things are happening which will discredit religious asshats. And I have had the privilege to meet a number of indigo children, and they are very wonderful people. Here are some characteristics of an “indigo child” (and my own comparison to myself using the description of the traits):
- They come into the world with a feeling of royalty (and often act like it) - I cannot tell you how many people in my life will agree with this statement quite thoroughly.
- They have a feeling of “deserving to be here,” and are surprised when others don’t share that. - I do have this kind of feeling. I dunno why, but I just do.
- Self-worth is not a big issue. They often tell the parents “who they are.” - Oh yes. I know exactly who I am and the constant insults and lies about me that my parents tried to feed into my mind never really took root. My parents always told all sorts of horrible lies about me just to make me feel bad about myself.
- They have difficulty with absolute authority (authority without explanation or choice). - This completely describes why I had so much trouble with my parents and he school that I attended. There were asshat teachers that thought that they deserved respect just because of the fact that they were a teacher. It was never because they ‘earned’ respect, because that was beyond their comprehension. Actually deserving respect? No, that is beyond their ability. ^_^
- They simply will not do certain things; for example, waiting in line is difficult for them. - Oh yeah, I can definitely attest to this. I detest manual labour and I will not do manual labour at all.
- They get frustrated with systems that are ritually oriented and don’t require creative thought. - I guess this made it a lot easier to become an atheist because I saw through the ignorant rituals of the Christian faith.
- 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). - Oh yes and this got me in trouble at both home and school. I was a complete system buster and there were a number of things at the faculty at my school did that were just plain ignorant. And the less said about the rules that my family had growing up, the better. Even though they were stupid, my parents had a complete passion in following them despite logic. Like a religion really.
- 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. - Yeah, I would have to say that this is completely true. I do feel a bit antisocial at times but there are a few people that I feel very comfortable integrating with.
- They will not respond to “guilt” discipline (”Wait till your father gets home and finds out what you did”). - Yeah, there was a lot of this in my family’s house. Not enough real discipline but rather, false accusations about shit that I did not do. Hell, I remember that my father accused me of stealing and eating an entire block of cheese and he later found the block of cheese in the freezer, right where he put it.
- They are not shy in letting you know what they need. - What can I say? I am a very direct person and I am more than willing to let people know about my needs, wants and opinions. Hence, this blog.
As a skeptic, I maintain my belief that things such as auras and new age spirituality is almost as kooky as religion. The only difference being that new age spirituality is not as dangerous or deadly as any religion. But by the mere definition of the term, I could even call myself an Indigo child because I do fit these characteristics.
