Indigos Aren’t Children Anymore
How did this major passage in the lives of Indigos creep up so suddenly without my anticipating it? Not only have Indigos reached adulthood and started families of their own, they are now reaching the point of their Saturn Returns, with all the hardcore life lessons that Saturn marked at the time of their births.
Are you an Indigo adult?
We can’t really refer to the Indigos as children anymore, can we? Although it is my understanding that Indigo souls have been coming in — incarnating — trickling in for perhaps a century in smaller numbers — the greatest wave of Indigos born in massive numbers was concentrated primarily in the late 1970s and 1980s — and even these souls have been adults for more than a decade now.
A large number of people for whom I perform spirit guide readings easily qualify as either Lightworkers or Indigos. A smaller number have distinct spiritual Callings, channel, identify, or work with specific archetypes, or express other easily identifiable life themes… These types of spiritually-based identifiers comprise a large chunk of the information I retrieve during the simplest, most basic of introductory readings. (At some point, I should probably change the name of this reading to reflect the larger issues it reveals.)
Perhaps even more important than isolating your primary spirit guide’s name, and the dominant life themes or karmic lessons they assist you with, are the keywords they quickly communicate such as “Indigo.” If you are an Indigo, this is one of the first things your guides will tell me about you.
Your spirit guides will tag you as Indigo in a heartbeat — the challenging thing for me at this point in my research… admitting to and acting on the fact that I need to study this phenomenon. So many other authors, psychologists, and spiritual teachers have chosen this as their area of expertise, but due to the increasing numbers of people whose guides point to their Indigo status I realize I must commit myself to researching and learning more.
A few general things I can tell you about your Indigo status:
- The greatest number of you seem to have been born in the late 1970s through the 1980s.
- You were often (in my opinion) misdiagnosed with learning disabilities, hyperactivity, or attention deficit disorders. This misunderstanding came from the clash with long-established social institutions, particularly traditional education and intelligence evaluation. The established social systems sought to label the behavioral phenomena accordingly — to absorb these radically different children — without changing the System. Easier to say there is something “wrong” with these children, rather than address the need to renovate the institutionalized understanding of child development and education. It makes me absolutely shudder to think of how medicating these children was so quickly adopted as the number one prescription or first means of addressing the issues raised by these spiritually evolved kids.
Since I was a teenager, I’ve received loud, bellowing, clanging, intuitive alarms — these kids aren’t intellectually challenged, they’re spiritually evolved! Perhaps some day very soon science will be able to look back at the genetic markers representing the next step of homo sapiens sapiens…
(Please, again, I am nowhere near being the most reliable source — help me research this topic and don’t hesitate to contact me with what you find. I’d love to recommend the best books, the best web sites, etc. Dr. Meg Blackburn Losey, who I’ve had the pleasure of meeting and witnessing her trance channeled sessions with the Ascended Master — someone whose insights I would trust — has written a book called The Children of Now that extends this area of research and focuses on the next generations, the Crystal and Star Children. Doreen Virtue is a mainstream author and intuitive who has also published on this topic…)
Even if you weren’t born an Indigo…
An even bigger context to keep in mind is that even if you are NOT an Indigo, the world is full of them — it is highly likely that you will have many significant partnerships with Indigos — for years now they’ve been your children, your siblings, your students, your employees… Because they are reaching an age of greater authority, they are more and more likely to be your boss!
The odds of your marrying an Indigo — especially if you are within a certain age group — are huge.
The evolution toward a more universal, humanist, globally-connected collective consciousness — the human Oversoul — is one of the most significant driving factors of our entire society. Indigos affect all of us — I’ve recently read that people of all ages acquire — or learn — Indigo traits and are literally “switching” to a mode of consciousness more in line with what the Indigos represent — more psychic, more compassionate, more empathic, more collectively organized, and no longer tolerant of the Old World Order.
In many ways, this echoes the changes you experience individually during Saturn Returns. I’m feeling that as Indigos start passing through their Saturn Return in enormous numbers, we will see a similar shift on a global scale. I believe this must resemble what chaos theorists describe as strange attractors — nodes of dense gravity — who have the power to introduce radiating changes — picture a domino effect that moves like the circular ripples from a stone dropped in a pond, each Indigo as a center point. Factor in the overlapping waves, and this occurring at multiple dimensions… I can’t even wrap my brain around it.
But even if I don’t have all the vocabulary at my fingertips to translate it into words, I am observing it with wonder and barely contained excitement.
At the very least, I advise you to research the meaning of Indigo yourself. I’m also requesting that you share with me the best of what you find online so that I can offer better recommendations to my clients.
It’s tricky, because I must be careful not to let someone else’s research influence, overly inform, or otherwise color my readings, yet I want to maintain a balance with the wisdom that’s already out there.
In the last three months, I’ve observed an overwhelming percentage of reading requests from Indigos who are confounded by a major astrological transit known as the Saturn Return. As the amount of observable data I accumulate from my readings grows, I am always on the lookout for any patterns — especially those that correspond nicely with traditional astrological vocabulary.
“Wait a minute,” I thought. “Indigo children are having Saturn Returns?!”
It hadn’t occurred to me that they were old enough, but because the Saturn Return happens at the same age for everyone, I’m now seeing the “Big Surge” in the Indigo population awakened by the overwhelming impulse to seek divine guidance regarding the significant life changes brought by Saturn.
The good news for Indigos is that Saturn seems to be causing less disruption — this major transit is not wreaking havoc in their lives to the degree that it has with older generations. I would attribute this smoother Saturn life transition to the very qualities that Indigos are known for:
- Indigos seek out and embrace change.
- Their collective mission is to break down socially established behavior patterns; it’s the way they roll.
- The things that caused their teachers and parents to label them as “difficult” when they were children seem to serve them well during times of spiritual flux and change.
- Indigos don’t lose their minds when confronted with chaos; indeed they seem to thrive on energetic fluctuations that strike panic into the hearts of their parents and grandparents.
The Indigos I’m meeting are not struggling with their Saturn lessons nearly as much as I would expect — but they are feeling their Saturn Returns just as much as anyone. While the older generations have a tough time letting go of the patterns and relationships that aren’t working for them — typically digging in, clinging, insisting that they be dragged kicking and screaming — the Indigos are very sensitive that something major is happening to them — they are confused and feeling a bit lost — but the Indigos seem to be better equipped at surfing this particular evolutionary chaos. The news of what is happening to them resonates with them immediately; they seem less inclined to fight and struggle, and therefore require very little direction and encouragement to adapt to these changes.
It’s wild to observe the requests for charts and readings over the past couple of years literally roll through the zodiac — and it’s the current Saturn aspect the requests mirror. Indigo after Indigo passing through their Saturn Returns, right after the other, day after day — my schedule was lining them up almost perfectly according to birthday — this is what first caught my attention.
So, what’s the connection between Indigos, Saturn Returns, and Spirit Guides? My theory is that the Saturn Return is so significant and so impossible to ignore that it’s acting as a prompt to connect with your guides regarding your life lessons (karma) and a powerful urge to reorient your path according to a higher sense of life purpose.
I’d estimate that there could be about 500 people reading this right now for whom these theories certainly apply. If you’re approaching | right at | just past 29 - 31 years old, you’re feeling like the Universe has a wrecking ball aimed right at your life, and you were “diagnosed” as a child with any of the attributes associated with Indigo children — there’s a very good chance that you are an Indigo whose greatest karmic lessons are being delivered by strict Saturn — and your spirit guides are sounding the alarms to wake you up…
One thing that your Spirit Guides and your Chart will reveal to me during an introductory Name Reading is whether or not this is happening to you and in what areas, circumstances, or life themes the lessons are most likely to occur.
What do you know about Indigos?
I’d love to see you start an absolutely fierce discussion in the comments below!

Slade,
I Wholeheartedly agree with your description of Indigos. Apparent social disfunctions turn out to be hidden strenghts. And yes, they tend to bend reality around them in strange ways, as if their matter was somehow denser, resulting in an amplified gravity field… figuratively speaking, of course. Being around one for the last couple of years has been quite a ride.
Regarding strange attractors, I do feel you man. They are really hard to conceptualize - so much that they physically make my head hurt. However, I think you have seen more of them than you realize (Hint: click on my name above)
Vitor,
Again, let me stress that I feel my descriptions are somewhat lacking and just a regurgitation of the “mainstream” wisdom out there about Indigos.
I actually don’t know exact details of where this points. I just keep hearing Indigo during readings. I’m trying to hover between what everyone else says and the patterns of what I observe during readings.
But there does seem to be something to this… I’m wondering.
My first learning of Indigo children was sometime back
in the fall of 2002. I can pin point the date because
I made a post on a web site and just went back
to check the date of that.
The reason of my interest was my 3rd child Kevin had
just turned 6. At the age of 6 he was (IS) obstinate and
MY WAY or the highway !!
I was not a first time parent having older children.
Nicole who is now 25 and Vince who is 23. I needed
some direction for parenting him.
What I learned in reading about Indigo children is that
they must be parented with a different style.
They need choices.
In reading up about this to learn about Kevin I saw
definite traits in Nicole too.
At the age of around 3 Kevin wanted to know where
his other Daddy was. He spoke about a time before
there were cars. I know this is a bit off track,
but you can see he always had a different side to him.
Nicole is a server and she sees many young children
who could very well be Indigos.
This past summer she had a table. A young mother
and Grandmother and a female child about the
age of 3 or 4. Nic said the little girl had
the saucer eyes. Nicole said that while taking
their order the little one just studied Nicole’s face.
She said the little girl held her head cocked to
one side and smiled a very knowing look towards
Nicole.
At one point as Nic went to clear off their
dishes, the little girl reached out, grabbed Nicole’s
hand, and rubbed the back of it and said,
“you are beautiful”. Nic responded back
to the child… thank you, so are you.
It really struck Nicole to have a child REACH out
to her in that way. Perhaps it was the child
recognizing a like minded person in Nicole.
Slade you said…
“and your spirit guides are sounding the alarms to wake you up…”
Are they sending those wake ups on 11:11 prompts?
:)
I think I was an early Indigo, but probably many of the readers born in the 60s and earlier probably feel the same way. I’ve always known there’s more to this world than what we see, always questioning, rebelling against the status quo, living outside the traintracks of ‘the normal average life’. Call me perverse or just an odd one in the pack but I’ve always felt out of my time until recently (say last 3-4 years) when I feel the reality of the world has caught up with what was going on for me. Reading Seth Speaks at 19 probably tipped me over the edge in areas of ‘what is reality’ and I never looked at the work the same way since. Being born in 1960 I’m way out of the timeframe for an Indigo and its probably why I get on so well with younger people coz we get each other.
Great post Slade, as always!

Hi Slade,
What a wonderful topic. I too started wondering about indigo children when my own children were very young.
I first heard read of these children when my “indigos” became teenagers. I always felt that at least 2 of my three children were indigos. That is after I heard the term.
Have you ever heard of Kryon? I followed the books of Kryon channeled by Lee Carroll for a long time. It was Lee’s wife Jan who authored the first book that I came across about Indigo Children. I must admit that by the time I was led to that book my grandchildren were expressing great imaginations and light to our world. So I gave the book to my daughter, mother of these marvelous children.
She felt they were indigos, but as I study more and read more I wonder if they are not the next generation of children…Sorry I forget the term used.
I feel I am rambling without a point here. I just wanted to share these websites with you and your readers. You did ask:)
www.indigochild.com (This is Jan Tober’s site)
www.kryon.com (this is the original Kryon site)
I found Kryon books before I ever did the online thing:) And when I read Jan’s book The Indigo Children reference to these souls was new (at least to me). One thing I do know, Jan was talking about indigo children before they were adults:)
I hope this little bit of information helps.
Love,
Sally
Not an indigo in the timeframe you mention [Scorpio ‘61 with a fire all around, Aries moon with Sag rising], and likely an early Indigo for 70s-80s. My readings, particularly from Doreen Virtue’s books, indicate that Indigos have been around for eons of time, as the “rule crashers”. For example, Joan of Arc, was a classic rule breaker. Regardless, I resonate so strongly with your description provided, in that I love change, like to re-create myself, like to defy logic, dislike rules and false boundaries, the old ways bore me and most certainly have been labelled as “difficult” and “overly-sensitve” by mostly “underly-sensitive” folks dulled out by mass media and an incessant life in front of the TV (a funny twist!) so naturally feel angry about the injustice of life as we know it! Clearly, being mis-read and mis-labelled adds to the Indigos fierce indignation. And yet, I’ve spent many years working in a crazy world called Corporate America, which is so foreign to my nature. But bridging these 2 worlds requires talent and grace; bringing the new to the old structures or simply waiting for the old structures to self-implode! Somehow I like that more - change for the betterment of humanity!
It’s funny how much this article resonates. Let’s see, I turn 29 in 2 weeks. And I sit here, distracted and discontented, in my unfufilling engineering job with purple hair, and with a personal motto that “Normalcy is Overrated”. Not to mention the ADD, and how much I sucked at college, and lucked out to have a big giant head that helped me breeze through classes. I guess I do fit into that whole “Indigo” thing.
I am 20 and barely fall in the time frame but I fit other descriptions.. This is the first time I have heard of Indigo children. This is a wonderful post and it really does explain a lot about “my generation” being so spiritually propelled through our lives. My friends range between the ages of 20 and 30 and we all know that there is something more than what society is telling us, but we have all formed our on opinions that satisfy us well.
I myself was diagnosed with ADD and I do honestly find it hard to concentrate… it’s more I start reading a book and my mind carries the subject on with more and more questions that never seem to be answered in what I am reading so I give up
My boyfriend on the other hand while obviously “rebellious” wouldn’t fit the Indigo description, but I find we go so well together.
What really interested me about your post though is that Indigos strive in chaotic situations. I have found myself stuck with no home, no money, no one to call a few times in my life and MY HEAD IS ACTUALLY CLEAREST IN THOSE TIMES!!! My thoughts run together so smoothly and I can concentrate on what I need to do and how to get it done to be okay.
My theory is that with this wave of Indigos and seemingly they still keep coming, maybe chaos will soon take us over.
I hope some of this helps with your work. Thank you for such an interesting and informative post.

well slade I would like to say thank you from the bottom of my soul because I thought I was a weirdo because none of my peers think the way I do. I dont ever discuss or talk about what im absolutely obsessed with, the metaphysical world. I know for a fact that im an indigo because every one of the discriptions apply to my life absolutely!!!!!!!!!!!!! I also feel very psychic because I always have felt a presence suddenly in the room and no one would be there but I could feel it was someone there. I have always thought outside the box and as I grow older I have to know the truth about life because im not buying the whole virgin has a baby thing im not actually the type that has ever went for that. I come from a christian family but ive always looked at it as a family tridition rather than something that I honestly and truely believed in but I could never say that because church was mandatory. I now have a child and I would never make him choose to belong to any controlled religious organization. I would explain to him that there is a higher power, higher self to appeal to because I honestly asked my pastor ” If god knows the past present and future, why would he punish his creations when he already knows them acording to the numbers of hairs on their head? But the paster never could answer my question or direct me to an answer. he passed away never answering my question and leaving me with a even more sckeptical outlook on christianity. I have always see thing crystal clear such as motives underlying tention and vibes about everything I see and hear. I am so glad that there are support groups and people like u. Well I guess im going to stop displaying a definite quality or characteristic that belongs to indigo chattering and hyperactivity.
I fit the age group, but I don’t think I’m an indigo myself. I think I know what you’re talking about though. I grew up with some people that, looking back, I believe were indigos. I could see that they were bright lights then, but the people who represented the structure didn’t always see that. Of course now that I’m a teacher myself, I’m a part of the structure. One of the things that I need to figure out now is how to reshape the structure (or some times tear it down) so it can work better for indigos and those like them. Thanks for the post.
Slade,
I Just started hearing about the indigo children this year.I’m not sure if I am one or not. but I will tell you a little bit about me.
I was born in 1983. I look back and laugh about the was I treated my parents when I was a child. I told them what to do and when to do it. We were to sit at the table and eat dinner, I made them tuck me in at bedtime. Made them make sure the seats were warm before I got in the car. I had issues with the inseem or the lining of my socks, I would scream when they touched my toes. I made my father put my clothes in the dryer so they weren’t cold before I put them on… I don’t know why my parents did the things I asked. We were by far not rich!! But for some reason I believed I was royalty of some sort, or a bit of a brat. LOL.
I had trouble in school ever since elementary. I wasn’t the hyper one, I was the one who was very quite. Teachers talked about ADD but I was never diagnosed until I was a teenager with a ton of issues.But I never took the meds. I’ve experienced the dejavu thing happen before and that was scary.
The only time I really had a strong intuition was when my long term boyfriend was cheating on me, and I knew. I had reoccurring dreams that he was with a girl that was blonde. Which was not his type I asked him about it and of course he denied. I always and still do feel that my soul was connected with his. Then a few years ago I recently found out about him being with this girl that I thought it would never happen and she was blonde. We have a child together, luckily she has my eyes. I knew I was meant to have her. I named her when I was 13. When I was pregnant I knew what she would look like, which feateures she had of mine and what of his. People have also told me my eyes are hypnotizing. my counselor at school told me I was a strategizer I take leed and guide people. I’m always searching for my purpose. Just recently started talking to my spirit guide thru the automatic writing.
I just have the never ending question, Who am I? Why am I here? What’s my purpose?
Im sorry but i have to keep this short and simple as it is 4:30am and my 9 month old son is sleeping,
Tonite has been a very unique nite just like most others. I couldnt sleep like always and i was just thinking about my life. so i started doing research on spiritual paranorma. i was searching for answers that could maybe make me feel normal. all my life ive seen spirits, i talked to them and i believe their the only reason why im still here today. i had a very hard up bringing. well anyways. i was just recently as an adult diagnosed with ADD or whatever!! I didnt believe it when they said it. and i still dont believe it now. i think its a big sack of shit. Ive always felt like i was different and i was always told that i was different.
my family. laughs at me when i say. that i know im here for a true purpose and i always feel like. i miss heaven. i dont know why but i have the strongest erge in my body to go to heaven
im truely sorry i just have so much to say. i have to wait untill a better time to expain to u how i really feel. im extremly gifted creatively and Musically the most!!
i no that i am Indigo and from this day forward i will start living and breathing it!!! i will never again doubt my abilities. i no now that im not crazy! i do see dead spirits and that feeling that i always have in my heart isnt fake. i always feel so ready for something to happen, its like i feel alot of energy inside of me and sometimes i just want to scream.
and by the way. ive done that automatic writing before, but i didnt know then what was doing. its was in 2003 or 2004. but i had just walked in from school, i mean i hadnt even put down my books yet. when something told me to get my notebook and write what it was telling me, and when i did. it seemed everywhere and it didnt make sense to me. but later that night my boyfriend at the time (who was with me through many spiritual encounters) helped me make sense of it all. and it was a very clear message from a higher power.. It scared the shit out of me!! and i eventually convinced myself that i was crazy and threw the whole notebook away!!! around that time in my life i had a lot of strange things happening. i new things about my boyfriend at the time, that i couldnt have possibly known if it wasnt from a higher power. I mean things about his child hood. very personal things. I knew he had ADD and a lot more. it even freaked me out..
He had a very bad spirit that had been following him for a long time. and i started seeing it. and it made me avoid him because i was scared of the spirit. so eventually i just told him the truth of why i wasnt spending time with him. and i ended up finding out that he had been seeing things lately and also having nightmares. anyways to make it short that night we had a spiritual awakening. and it was amazing.
I blacked out or something and all i know is what he told me……….. he told me that. i had a bright glow around me and that my feet were off the ground( yess he said i was floating in mid air) my arms were streached out and my head was down as if i was sleep. but he said that a force made him drop to his knee’s and he just started crying. and when i came back. i was shaking and scared. i didnt know what happend and i wanted him to call the police. but he was just so happy and in shock. …. long story short !! He was an Atheus before that day…
it doesnt end their.. crazy things have been happening my whole life.. i believe that my every move is part of a plan. including this… me finding this was not an accident and i know that.
I don’t know much about Indigo childre or adults only about what I have read here. However at a spirtual meeting a nedum told my daugher who has a learning disability and is clever in her own right that she ws an Indigo Adult. At present she is fighting to change things in Education for people with a disability. I also believe her disablity was misdiagnosed. This would be interesting if true. She is creative and wants to learn to act but have found because of her disability unable to find a way, What has been discribed has almsot left me with my mouth openwide as I can not beleive how accurate it all is. She has been really down lately and would love some help on how I can help her on her way. So we went to the library yesterday and the woman said we have nothing on Indigo children but we have a new book and when it comes in you will be the first. Was that coincidence, I don’t think so. I told her she was special and she has always insisted she is here for a reason but hopefully the sadness in her life will come to joy because she does not deserve it. She deserves the love and life because she has such a beautiful soul. Her name is Holly so please can you include her in your prayers. Thanks
Simone,
Thank you for sharing Holly’s story — the dividing line between victim and victor is often very thin and able to be shifted from one to the other with a change in perspective.
It’s interesting that you use the word “special” — as this is a word that is sometimes used as a “nice” way of communicating more derogatory things like “mentally challenged” or “special needs.”
I think the people who find themselves under their labels are too aware of those negative connotations…
I feel one of the best things you might do to support Holly would be to help her approach her experience as an exciting new area of research, or an opportunity to rewrite her personal history from a different angle.
Nothing is more powerful than finding out “Hey! Maybe there’s a good reason for all this and it’s not the pain I thought it was!” That in itself is HUGE.
Come back and share what you discover, especially if the book is one you’d recommend.
I will show her what you wrote because I have been trying to persuade her to write her own story because she has overcome so many challenges. She is special not because of her disability but because of her ability to show so much love to me and to many others and because she tells me I am the best mum in the world. She has a heart full of love and she is often behind me on the computer urging me to write yet another letter to some MP or make a comment on a site. I have written 400 emails in the last week just to make her view point heard. She told me it did not matter if they did not care as long as they read it.For a long time I have been feeling that changes are near it is almost a knowing and when things did not happen I was very sad. However I know that perhaps it was not to be her path but I hope I can help her to reach her destination.Well if her dreams come true it would be unbelievable because of the journey that is still unfolding now. We are just hoping that this year it will be the start of positiveness.We have never given up hope and have always had this feeling that something is due. She talks of it each day. She wants to change how governement treat people with disabilities but perhaps that is what ever youngster wants to do. What she has to do is bring out the real person that I know who is strong in front of mum but hides in front of other people, I have told her it is time for the real Holly to come out. Thank you for that she will be thrilled to read that and I am sure her imagination will go wild and think I will get published and then will make a film and I can star in it. That is part of her hopes and dreams. When I read a book on Indigo Adults I will write some more because I was really and truely amazed how the description of her character was truly described. For me it was something truly amazing. Thanks
Yet again I am trying to do a websearch for Indigo Adults - and nothing much comes up. I am an Indigo Adult (I have just reached the old age of 50 !!). All the publicity that is aimed around children is just down right dangerous. I used to like Doreen Virtue - not any more I am afraid. I was pleased to come across you website that actually offered Indigo (apart from forums) to put a point across…. please…. please… for the sake of hudreds of us out there looking for help - stop narrowing this down to just children - we were /are the path makers - we need help as just as much and even more so - we are the lonley and lost souls who have suffered the joureny these youngsters are about to visit - we should be sharing the journey - not being discarded because its not fashionably…
Your website is the first I have come across that give us a realsitic chance of being heard.. if you are turly on the path - then you will know you have to speak out for us all - not be manipulated by the media hype.
Like many Indigo adults, my life has been hell - and for what - I still dont know - but I do know its for a reason and if its just to speak up for all us “older versions” then so be it - a lot of money is being made on this hype for kids - its not right - for a genuine Indigo money wont matter - the truth does - if you do nothing else dont ignor this opportunity to speak up for all of us - its not for the chosen few - those who follow that path will not be doing it for the greater good.
Best wishes, Carole
Carole,
I wasn’t aware that I was making a unique or rare point about Indigo Adults — it did become obvious to me as I worked with more and more clients who identify with “indigo” traits that the word “children” was no longer relevant.
You know, it’s interesting when you think about all the authors who have written books in the last few decades geared toward the topic of Indigo Children… hasn’t it occurred to them, or at least their publishers from a marketing stand point, that their audience is always growing, evolving, and very quickly?
It seems to me that this should be apparent to those who work with Indigos — it would be like having a kindergarten program in place with no elementary, middle, or high school to graduate to.
I am by no means an “expert” in this topic, nor is it my specialty, but I do feel that I speak to a cross-section of people with unique spiritual sensitivity (obviously, Indigos among them).
I do NOT believe “diagnoses” or identifying with problematic labels or illnesses is helpful or empowering to anyone.
I do invite you to come back here and leave links or other resources you find that you feel are superior or particularly helpful.
Is there anything really positive about Indigos? Ok I have read they are here to help make changes to govenment poliices. Is there any other positive aspect to their life as I am now getting worried that adult Indigos are here to experience doom. Someone put me right please.
Simone,
I think this concept of diagnosing people with “illness” — Attention Deficit Disorder, etc, — is a tragedy and a negative self-identification.
Why would you choose to believe anyone is here to experience “doom”? I don’t believe that, but I can say that we should all be careful about attachments to such beliefs — we tend to always be right and find our beliefs reflected in our experiences.
If you’re looking for a more positive reframing of Indigo qualities, I would look to the increased natural psychic ability, greater universal sensitivity and empathy — Indigos have a hard time because they are somewhat ahead of the curve in terms of humanity’s evolution. The difficulties can be changed through awareness and managing their experience with a different set of beliefs about where these “challenges” come from and why. It’s all context — if the majority believes the “proper” way to behave is self-destructive and suicidal and disconnected, then someone who does not resonate with that madness is identified as “wrong” or “different.” Being “right” is less about truth or more about opinion…
Indigo qualities are a glimpse of our future, and the Indigos themselves are paving the way and inspiring adjustments to our social, cultural, political, spiritual systems. They are ultimately called to be leaders.
The problem with the lable “indigo children” it has marginalised the topic somewhat. Those with a greater understanding of estoric and metaphysical (usually in the background) know this is not the case. I am deeply concerned at the money that is evolving around published material that is just a regurgated version of someone else spin that they lifted of someone else’s spin (again, again etc.. if you get my drift). Alot of stuff (feeding, caring etc..) is just normal common sense (agree many dont know this…) but to lable it for yet another jump on the band wagon - is inappropriate and wrong.
The food issue I find worrying as well - its not just indigo’s that are suffering the whole food chain around the world is being posioned (look at the obesity problem in places that never had it before) - food is a chemical - we are chemically composed - chemicals react !! that is not rocket science!!
Not all the kids that are suffering have Hyper Active Disorder - some are just down right nasty and dangerous (there is masses of dark energy around and you can see it in them) They dont even have to speak - its in their aura.
Now we have crystal and rainbow in the pot - what next !! gold and platnum !!
At times I am serverly depressed with the lonelyness of my life - but then I keep being told I asked for it… (silly me !!) - but once I shake off the gloom - I am glad to be me - so I dont have a social circle like those I work with (but then I dont want too !!) I look back over my life and I give thanks to the challenges - they made me - me !!! - hard yes - at times they nearly killed me and I still go to bed at night praying not to wake up the next day for more of the it !! - but I am me - I like me !!
I also find there is just no new stuff around - as said eariler - just re-hashed by the latest author on a roll. When I am not in one of my down days - my mind will explore and wander to ask why - like any filtration system - plants and livestock (including people) start off as small pockets to populate any environment - if it suites - its nurtured - if not it dies. I think the older indigos (like me) were sent down to start the infaltration - sow the seeds - like any pilot project - you learn from what goes wrong and what goes right. We are still here - we still have a job to do (although we may have lost the plot due to lack of understanding and abuse by others) - but we still have a mission all the time we are still here - we have bourne the brunt for what the universe is about to chuck at this planet - I just wish the currant mainstream authors (espeically the ones just copying others) would stop promoting such hype (aimed at children - nice safe option) and that it is just for the priviledge few - - I have seen many blogs on Amazon.com from disapointed people hoping they found some new material to read only to discover it wasnt - just someone elses spin on it (and made a packet doing it).
Looking at Simone’s comments - yes I would agree it does seem like we are surrounded with doom - but we dont know the end of the story - no one does - the doom or gloom as I would rather put it is the lack of support for adults. Going back to the media hype on children - much is written (alot for the wrong reasons) - just because we have grown up we should not be forgotton or neglected - we too are lost and confused (and probably suffered more abuse). The world is a more scary place at the moment - espcially for the sensitive - but it is the sensitives that hold the key wthin - we just got to work out how to unlock the door.
Slade -
This is a very interesting thread. It seems that most of the discussion is about external qualifications or characteristics of indigos.
I tend to just accept that there is such a thing as Indigos (children or adult). There are also Crystal and Star Children. The questions now is - OK, so what?
I have been writing a blog that attempts to put all this into perspective. Over the years I have come to understand that the Crystal, Indigo, and Star children are here for a purpose. They are here to help us through the disruptions that will be caused by the planetary rebalancing.
If I put all those thousands of words on your website then I am wasting your resources.
Instead I will risk getting you upset, and possibly being impolite by shamelessly plugging my blog. If you are interested, you can find it at:

Hi Everyone,
I posted a comment to this post when Slade first started it. And I have been following the comments as they trickle in.
Seems to have become quite a popular post. Thank you Slade for bringing this to the light. I must say that yours is one of the few newsletters that I actually read with interest.
Anyway when Carole’s post came to my attention and after reading Slade and Simones responses as well I felt inspired to do a little search of my own.
I have always related to the Indigo “Children” concept since I first heard about it. But I never really followed as an authority. The books written at the time gave me answers to questions I had about my own children and now grandchildren.
I have never seen this age as negative. I totally agree with Slade on this one. If we look for the negative we will be given many opportunities to prove it is so.
Anyway after reading Carole’s post I decided to do a google search on “purpose of indigo”. I was actually surprised at what I found. There seems to be a community of adult indigos out there begging to share. I found forums, discussion groups and much more. Now I know you may have to wade through a bit of rubbish as with all efforts worth pursuing and I won’t say you will find the good news I did. But for Indigos who have questions it is worth checking out.
The first thing to catch my attention was a book and to save rambling I am just going to copy in the link.
Indigo Adults: Forerunners of the New Civilization - Google Books Result
by Kabir Jaffe, Ritama Davidson - 2005 - Body, Mind & Spirit - 138 pages
… The Purpose of Indigo Souls The Sense of ‘Calling’ and ‘Purpose’ One of the … calling is often one of the strongest driving forces within Indigos. …

Here is a little excerpt about the book
A new type of person is coming into incarnation right now, almost a ‘next step’ as humanity progresses. These people are visionary and creative, progressive and independent. They carry new ways of thinking and feeling
That link takes you to a preview of the actual book with links where you can buy it..
These two following sites I checked out and though the one is titled indigo children as the page, the site is written by an adult indigo

Looks like you may have to copy these links into your browser to check them out. Like I said I came across them by doing a search on “purpose of indigos”.
I hope this helps a little.
Thank you Slade and all who post here,

What positive is happening now for Holly. Holly has fought and fought to get her voice heard to make changes to disability issues. Although so far not many are listening we have taken it upon ourselves. Mother and daughter to stick together and persevere.
It will only take one important person to listen but if we do not try then we can’t hope to make changes in government. So I say we are slowly climbing up the big stairs and nothing will stop Holly and I. We have read about Holly’s path and we both truly believe we will make changes in some way and no matter how often we get battered we will continue fighting on. So that is very positive. It is also giving us strength knowing that this is the right thing to do and although it may be a little voice.
Little voices will make a difference and we are both hoping to reach that top step to open up greater opportunities for everyone to enjoy.
