Indigo children - what are their characteristics? Who are Indigo children: how to identify an Indigo child

Surely you have already heard something about Indigo Children, read articles on this topic. Who are they? Completely new people who came to change the world for the better, or cruel aggressors - children, killing children and childhood? What is their purpose on earth? And, perhaps, the main question: what should parents of such children do?

Before answering the question in the title of the article, I would like to make a couple of important comments.

  1. Despite the constant discussion and wide popularity of the term “Indigo Children,” not a single scientific evidence of the existence of this phenomenon exists today. Moreover, skeptical scientists, teachers and journalists believe that most of the signs and qualities of “indigo children” have long been known to psychiatrists and psychotherapists and are described by the diagnosis “attention deficit hyperactivity disorder,” and the “indigo” phenomenon itself is a hoax.
  2. It is almost impossible to talk about Indigo without resorting to some metaphysical concepts such as aura, soul, angels, past lives.

Therefore, readers often have a logical question: how should all this be treated, especially by inveterate materialists? I see two options:

  • Postpone the article until you feel ready to receive this kind of information.
  • Try to feel and understand children, especially since modern kids are incredibly spiritual and are born with innate knowledge.

Where did Indigo Children come from?

The history of the term “Indigo Children” began a little over 30 years ago. They were first mentioned in 1982 by Nancy Ann Tapp in her book Understanding Your Life through Color. Nancy is a famous American clairvoyant, psychic and psychologist who has the amazing gift of seeing a person’s aura. And this is her first publication that described the behavior patterns of children of a new type. The term itself "Indigo children" associated with the color indigo (a type of blue color, intermediate between dark blue and violet), because this is the color of the aura of new children. According to Nancy, these new souls were born to facilitate our transition to the next stage of the evolution of human consciousness, since all Indigos are highly sensitive beings, endowed with numerous talents and strong intuition.

Advice to parents: If you cannot cope with some adult task on your own, ask your child for advice. Even very young Indigos will demonstrate impressive mental work and colossal intuition. And don't be afraid to tell the truth about your problems, because honesty is the best policy with Indigos!

In addition, all Indigos have high self-esteem. They come into this world with a sense of their own greatness and often behave accordingly. Indigos feel that they “rightfully belong here” and are sincerely surprised if other people do not share this opinion. Moreover, they themselves do not doubt their own mission. They often explain to surprised relatives “who they are.” For example, the typical answer of an Indigo child to the question: “Do you need to love yourself?” - “Of course, I love myself because it makes me strong!” Truly, the wisdom of the Indigo is admirable.

Characteristics of an Indigo Child

Absolutely all children of the new type rely on intuition, are very sensitive to energy and sense completely unusual things. They form their own opinions very early on about religion, who God is, and who they are. They respond with pleasure to spiritual conversations; some see angels, fairies and other supernatural friends, and talk about religion.

The spiritual inclinations of Indigos are related to the global tasks that face them. It is clear that new children have the power to change the world. The authors of the book about Indigo Children say that they come to us to usher in the beginning of a New Era. These wise and spiritual children are the key to a better world.

Characteristics of Indigo children (compiled by American doctor of psychology Doreen Virtue):

  1. Determined and persistent.
  2. Born later than 1978 (it was in this year that the first children began to be born not with a golden aura, but with a blue-violet aura.)
  3. He shows himself to be a creative person, has a penchant for music and poetry.
  4. Prone to bad habits.
  5. “Ancient soul”, feels as if he is not 13, but already 43.
  6. Intuitive, able to make the right decisions, relying only on his intuition.
  7. Independent and proud, even in humiliating situations.
  8. Capable of rage and cruelty if he comes across an insurmountable wall of indifference and lies.
  9. Prone to insomnia, restless sleep, nightmares, often has difficulty falling asleep or is afraid to fall asleep.
  10. Burns with a desire to help the world in some great cause.
  11. Has high self-esteem
  12. In adolescence, periods of depression are common, and thoughts of suicide have occurred.
  13. He is looking for real, strong and sincere friendship, is in dire need of the unconditional love of loved ones, and requires a lot of attention.
  14. Often feels affection for plants or animals. Some Indigos are so in love with nature that they understand the language of plants and birds, they rejoice, suffer and worry with them.
  15. The child categorically refuses to do some things, for example, stand in line. All Indigos hate it when they are forced to do something simply because “I said so” or “that’s how it should be” or “everyone else does it.”
  16. Previous methods of education do not work on him. He does not respond at all to strict “educational measures”, such as punishment, threats or humiliation.
  17. The child gives the impression of being unsociable if he is not in the company of his own kind. If there is no one around who has a similar mentality, they often withdraw into themselves, feeling that no one in the world understands them.

If your child meets 14 or more of the above points, then he is an Indigo. But there are exceptions: psychologists believe that there can be a lot of Indigo types, just like there are shades of blue.

Indigo style education

Raising an Indigo child is not an easy or responsible task for parents. This process requires self-discipline, consistency, wisdom and, most importantly, attention and parental love. Because the story of the Indigo Children is a love story. Start right now, because it’s never too late to prove your love to your children.

Success in parenting depends on several conditions. But perhaps the main one is the courage of parents. Not every parent will agree to have a frank conversation with their child about their shortcomings and weaknesses. It’s even harder to change something about yourself before you begin to educate others. Therefore, Indigos have little trust in parents and “outdated” teachers. They see that adults teach something completely different from what they themselves do. Parents should not forget that Indigos intuitively know our adult techniques and see when we think one thing, say another, and act in a third way.

One of the secrets to raising an Indigo child is discipline. Children need moderate severity and certain limits of behavior. At the same time, the boundaries of what is permitted must be clearly defined. Since permissiveness harms Indigo, children should not “sit on their parents’ heads.”

There are a few more important rules things to keep in mind if you are dealing with an Indigo child.

  1. You can't lie to children. Under no circumstances. The “half-truths” that parents often resort to when trying to protect their children from harsh reality are also harmful.
  2. Talk to children like adults. They like it. A frank conversation with parents is very important for Indigo. During such a conversation, put love into every word spoken. If the relationship is not going well with a teenager, then a frank conversation is the only way out of the current situation. The conversation may not be the most pleasant, but listen to everything he has to say. The main thing is don’t lose your temper, don’t make excuses and don’t read lectures. When a child speaks, you hear life itself, whether you agree with it or not. If you don't like something, breathe deeply and continue to listen and learn. After all, this is precisely the case when “the truth speaks through the mouth of a child.”
  3. Indigos need to be respected. It is known that all the children who shot their fellow students in American and Japanese schools were Indigos. It is also known that among them there were no children for whom their parents were best friends and who had an equal right to vote at home.

How to recognize Indigo

In short:

  • From a very young age, a child demonstrates to others his “sublimity”, “uniqueness”, “outstanding qualities”, “royalty”;
  • for him there are no authorities and idols;
  • he performs all his actions in accordance with his own feelings and the dictates of common sense;
  • without hesitation he tells you what he wants; he has his own view of the world around him. As a rule, this view does not coincide with the parent's;
  • any blackmail, persuasion, “traditional measures of influence” (“Now Baba Yaga will come and eat you!”) have no effect on him;
  • very quickly gets fed up with activities and concentrates on one thing, but for a very short period of time;
  • prone to phobias (including fear of losing a loved one or one’s own death);
  • will prefer to learn only from one’s own experience, that is, to gain knowledge from personal experience, rather than diligently cram educational material;
  • he feels very uncomfortable in the company of ordinary children. May complain to parents that “no one understands him at all”;
  • quickly chooses his own way of learning and relentlessly follows it, even if it does not coincide with the opinion of parents and teachers;
  • often violates generally accepted rules and prohibitions;
  • prefers creativity to all other types of knowledge;
  • may suffer from sleep disturbances and nightmares;
  • does not tolerate violence either against the surrounding world (animals, plants, other people), or against himself.

In details

- Looking into the eyes: I find that one of the most obvious signs of indigo children/adults is that they look directly at you while talking. I mean - they look straight into your eyes! They love to make eye contact. Eyes are the windows of the soul, and they know this and can learn more about you in a minute by looking into your eyes than if you talked about yourself all day. This makes many people feel uncomfortable, but this is the indigo way. You'd be surprised how few people make eye contact, so this is an important indigo trait.

- Strong-willed: This is especially difficult for a woman, but if she is indigo, she will create enemies for herself too easily, but this is not her fault. The fact is that indigos are goal-oriented, and humanity simply does not know how to deal with such women.

- Loyal: Indigos are very, very loyal to their friends and have a hard time if their loyalty is not returned in kind. For this reason, they will move on quite easily, but will lick their wounds until they can fully understand why this happened. Sometimes they will live with it for too long. One of the lessons they have to learn is how to take it easy, because this game is called - move on, their presence is required somewhere else.

- Strong in passions: Indigos have strong feelings about almost everything, including sex if love is involved. If not, forget about sex, but their affection will manifest itself in other activities. This passion is also seen in the fact that they need to speak up about everything and what's more, they are able to talk about almost any subject.

- Right hemisphere: We enjoy music, painting, literature, writing and especially spirituality. But because we have such a deep understanding and ability to learn everything, if we consider the computer to be a creative tool, we will create what most people consider a left-brained endeavor. It all depends on how we evaluate effort. If it's a labor of love, it doesn't matter what we do or how difficult or left-brained it is. Our strength lies in the creative aspect of ourselves.

- Driven by Rage: Until indigos are truly able to come to terms with who they are and understand why their life up to this point has been so difficult, yes, anger will be our main motivator. Anger at dishonesty, anger at people who bring suffering in this world, anger at your past, anger at authority, you name it. Until we come to terms with ourselves, our purpose, we will spend a lot of energy on anger [aggression]. Other people will see our inner anger long before we are willing to even admit that it exists.

- Money: Indigos, since they are not “middle of the road people,” are able to either accumulate large amounts of money and have a financially stable life, or they belong to the proverbial type of starving artist, i.e. those who are barely able to earn a living. Once again, when we come to terms with ourselves, we will be able to recognize that helping others, or fulfilling our purpose, costs money. From this moment on, we can come to the decision that earning money is necessary for higher quests. Unfortunately, too many spiritual practices teach that to be spiritual is to be poor. Ugliness. The true teaching is that you cannot serve two masters, one of which is money and the other is spirit. Having said this, it makes sense to recognize that if you make money serve your purpose while continuing to walk along the path of the spirit, then you are not serving money. Think about it a little!

- Teachers: Indigos are teachers in one sense or another, but not always in the normal sense. If someone can talk to someone and help in this way, it is a teacher. If they go into healing, they would rather teach it than practice it. The key point here is that everything they do is viewed as an attempt at teaching.

- Highly intelligent: This, no doubt, brings a lot of trouble. Indigos are indeed highly intelligent, but from childhood it can be a direct humiliation for a parent who cannot cope with a highly intelligent child, therefore, such children are not allowed to develop their true talents. As an indigo matures, others may wonder what is wrong with this person (indigo) and will say things like: “You are so smart, why are you wasting your time on this...” etc. Indigos will either use their intelligence , or they will play fools, again there is no middle ground on this road. But outsiders will see the indigo's mind, no matter what he does, and often before the indigo himself can admit this property.

- Painful Honesty: Non-Indigos often don't see the need for the kind of honesty that Indigos have. They even consider her cruel. If indigos cannot be honest, they will prefer to remain silent, because they consider walking down the middle of the road of partial honesty too destructive for themselves. The key point for non-Indigos is simple: don't ask an Indigo anything unless you are prepared to deal with direct honesty. Dishonesty = a game, and indigos don't play “games.”

- Don't play “games”: Indigos don't play "games" and feel insulted when other people play "games" with them.

- System Destroyers: This applies to myriad areas. They have an aversion to traditional learning, so they find alternative ways i.e. homeschooling for your children. They enjoy learning and teaching, but not in traditional ways. During the picnic, more than likely, they will be at one with the children and teach them crazy, funny and fun things to do in the general environment. Regarding the medical system, they will again find themselves in favor of alternative treatment/medicine. In government, they will begin to cope with the situation using non-standard approaches. The list goes on and on. Just know that if there is any system, the indigo will be the one who will consider changing it or openly change it.

- Depression: I mention them here because if indigos are not “woke”, or feel unhappy because they are not doing what they came to do, this will most often manifest itself as depression. Such depression quite often leads to the use of drugs, alcohol, disorders due to poor nutrition and/or behavioral disorders of one kind or another. This may also happen because they were told as children that they were not good enough or good for anything, and they believed it.

- Job: In general, indigos prefer to work alone, or as private owners and the like. But if they are in a shared workspace, you will be able to recognize them because they will either be on their own or very social (there is no middle ground). A woman will more than likely also create friction with her colleagues, which comes from willpower. If she is known to be an indigo and is accepted as an indigo, you most likely have one of the best employees or employees you have ever had. The key here is recognition. They need to be respected because they don't work like everyone else, but they certainly do their job 150%. If they work alone, run their own business or the like, you can only wonder how they manage to get things done, because - once again - they do not work like everyone else, but everyone else admits that they have gone much further!

I welcome regular and casual readers to the pages of my blog! The topic for today's discussion will be indigo people. The article will tell you who they are: foundlings of aliens or ordinary people with superpowers.

I think everyone who came across this exotic term had one reasonable question: “ Indigo, what kind of people are they? ?. Most sources are shrouded in mysterious statements about passing through walls, immigrants from other planets, and other science fiction. But everyone forgets one simple truth: indigos do not appear suddenly, they are our blood children who grow up and become adults. Since our everyday physical laws apply to them, we can stop considering them “different” simply in fact and understand what makes them special.

You yourself or your neighbor, or your nearest and dearest person may turn out to be indigo.

Why did they appear?

First, I would like to talk about why they are called indigo and where they got this term from. After all, my readers know that everything happens for a reason, right? Indigo is the blue-violet color of the spectrum. What do people have to do with it? The answer lies in esotericism. Aura is a person’s energy field, colored in different colors depending on the person’s makeup or his life situation at the moment. It's up to you to believe it or not. However, scientists believe that there are about 4% of people on the planet who are able to see energy shells.

Most of these people are somehow connected with predictions. In 1982, the famous clairvoyant Nancy Ann Tapp made a fateful statement: some children do not golden aura , but dark purple. Then the study of children who have an energy field of such a strange color began.

What is unique?

The peculiarity of such children is not at all the presence webbing between fingers or antennas for communication with space, but with amazing sensitivity. Perhaps this is the most meaningful word. For to everything: feelings, changes, injustice, lies. What not all people can learn in a lifetime, they know and can do from birth.

Why am I now speaking only for indigo children? But what about adults - a logical question arises. Like the phenomenon itself, some aspects have not yet been studied. But unlike children, indigo adults are less common. Most likely, because they are hiding and living an ordinary life. But some hypothesize about working in special services or committing suicide due to excessive vulnerability.

Who are they ? Children of the New Age, as Lyudmila Protopovich calls them in her book "Where did the Indigos come from?", have a whole range of special signs , which persist regardless of age.

Among them we can list the following:

  1. High intelligence. Starting from the age of 2, such children surprise and sometimes frighten their parents with their knowledge. After all, how does an ordinary child have in-depth knowledge about art or politics if he has just learned to speak? Throughout life, the amount of knowledge only increases. Indigo intelligence goes beyond the average, starting at 170. At the same time, this is not a guarantee of success in studies, but why, the article will answer .
  2. Wisdom. Dear readers, what qualities are attributed to wise men from various parables? Impartiality in judgment and behavior, but at the same time a desire to improve universe . There is low involvement in current events, as if a person is physically here, but not mentally.
  3. Truthfulness. It is impossible to convince of the need for something if this path does not have justice or love. Indigos do not accept benefits or hiding information, so they never lie or allow others to do so. They clearly know when the other person is sincere and when they are not.
  4. Mind reading. The rationale for this phenomenon interests many scientists. The main opinion is that people of another world draw knowledge from the information shell of the Earth, where everything is contained. Therefore they can read minds. Not to guess, but to know a clear thought form as it looks in your (or not your) head:) There is an excellent article on this topic.
  1. Individuality. Non-compliance with norms, because they know their purpose and follow it from childhood, no matter what it is. These are bright personalities who are often lonely due to misunderstanding by others. An article would be appropriate here .
  2. Hypersensitivity. Both plus and minus. People of the new world are emotional, they live all their feelings to the maximum, no matter what they are. They give of themselves without reserve and are acutely aware of failures or insults. They cannot let go of the situation for a long time, so they can become depressed. This article will help you cope with these conditions. X.
  3. Specific work of the brain. Indigo both hemispheres . Thanks to the simultaneous activation of the cortex of both hemispheres, they analyze information faster and have skills from different areas. They are fluent with their right and left hands.
  4. A piercing gaze. Always look directly at a friend or stranger.
  5. Be that as it may, despite a huge amount of knowledge and the ability to read minds, indigos are poorly socialized. It is difficult for them to comply with generally accepted norms and rules, because they do not see the point in them and are already living in a new century, which has not yet arrived here. Therefore, children and adolescents often have conflicts with teachers and peers; they find it difficult to adapt to life in society even as adults, unusual character.
  6. Indifference to money. Money for them is just a means of life, nothing more.
  7. Mental connection with similar ones. The connection between indigos and others like themselves, regardless of geographical location, helps them avoid being completely alone. All of them are connected by a chain-link on a non-material level, like the heroes of the series “The Eighth Sense”. There were even tests.

What's next?

How to identify a person indigo? - it won’t be difficult, he will always stand out from the crowd. However, it should be noted that despite their superpowers, these people are not always happy. Excessive sensitivity makes them vulnerable to the pain and injustice of the world. To know how to protect yourself from aggressive people, you can read the article . Can often appear illnesses which they may refuse to treat. After all, hospitals are not a place of happiness.

What is his future , indigo child? Growing up indigos have to adapt to this world. This comes with great difficulty and sometimes very painful lessons. Therefore, two extremes often occur: aggression and depression. Aggression towards everything that happens and that is difficult to change, depression for the same reason. Only indigos with enormous power can remain the same and change this world.

There are no answers to where such unique children came from ordinary parents, with such phenomenal abilities that were previously only dreamed of. However, it is certain that the purpose of indigo is to recreate a pure, bright world, full of love and healthy progress. And whether you believe it or not is your choice!

Indigo children. Talented, gifted, brilliant. Dynamic, hyperactive, uncontrollable. Open, loving, spontaneous. Their aura glows purple-blue. They are able to process information many times faster than others. They baffle educators, psychologists and psychiatrists. A generation of new inhabitants of the planet. Who are they, how to treat them and how to educate them? Indigo children are signs of their originality. And how should parents behave with their phenomenal children?

The indigo generation – a pattern or a phenomenon?

Children with phenomenal abilities are the first swallows of the coming evolution of humanity

Why "indigo"? In 1982, American Nancy Ann Tapp, who has extrasensory abilities and has the special gift of perceiving the energetic glow around the human body (aura), used this term for the first time.

She began to notice that the biofield of some newborn babies was sharply different in color from the rest, golden. It is either dark blue or purple. Somewhere between these two spectra. Artists call this shade indigo.

They are creative and dynamically developing individuals.

Subsequently, it turned out that children with such a biofield are strikingly different from the rest of their peers. Both in terms of psychological development and in the emotional sphere.

Which could not but interest scientists. Since that time, the phenomenon of indigo children has been actively studied. Since more and more of them are born every year. But a clear answer to the question of what causes this phenomenon has not yet been found.

There is a hypothesis that due to the ever-increasing flow of information that our brain has to process, it is evolving. And indigo children are the first messengers of this evolution.

They have unique abilities. They learn the world intuitively, and not the way we all do – by trial and error. Along with a high level of intelligence, indigo children are characterized by hyperexcitability.

Communicating with them at the level at which we are accustomed is quite difficult. They require a special approach. But how to recognize indigo in a child?

Video “Indigo Children – who are they?”

Signs from birth

Immediately after the birth of a child, no one will probably tell you whether he is endowed with some phenomenal abilities or not. Unless a psychic is able to recognize a blue-violet aura. But by the age of two or three, it will already be possible to notice some features that distinguish indigo children from other kids.

Endowed with a very high level of intelligence

  • Indigo children are endowed with a very high level of intelligence. Moreover, their talents are revealed at a fairly early age. They are far ahead of their peers in their mental development. They begin to read early and have pronounced mathematical abilities. They may be interested in a certain area of ​​knowledge, being completely indifferent to the rest. Of all activities, they prefer creativity in all its manifestations. They are reasonable. Able to identify cause-and-effect relationships and think logically. They have their own view of the world. And it is usually radically different from what ordinary kids think and tell.
  • They don't ask simple questions. And they often try to find the answers to them on their own. Observing, listening, drawing conclusions. And extremely developed intuition helps them in choosing the right decisions.

    They prefer loneliness to the company of peers, or communication with the same cheerful children, or with adults

  • Such children have very well developed speech and a large vocabulary. They express their thoughts without difficulty, amazing the most avid speakers with their eloquence.
  • Indigo children always understand perfectly what they are doing and why. And you can move them to take some action only through persuasion and explanation. Orders and instructions will not help here. Rules and prohibitions are not for them.
  • They have a developed sense of personality. They are confident in their individuality and uniqueness. For them there are no authorities or idols. The self-esteem of indigo children is at a fairly high level, but not exaggerated. Being perfectly aware of their characteristics, they do not hesitate to talk about them. But if they encounter misunderstanding and rejection, they become withdrawn and arrogant.
  • It is very difficult for such little ones to obey someone else's will. An authoritarian parenting style is in no way appropriate here.

    Due to their hyperactivity, look for indigos among the most avid school bullies

  • They do not get along well in a team. It is very difficult for them to achieve mutual understanding with their peers. They prefer the company of adults.
  • Overly active and very absent-minded. They cannot concentrate their attention on one type of activity for a long time. They quickly lose interest in what they have already studied and understood.
  • They are good with both their right and left hands. This is due to the same activity of the brain hemispheres, which is a distinctive feature of indigo children. For the same reason, they can, sometimes, when learning to write, write letters and numbers in their mirror image.
  • Very often they have phobias (fear of heights, darkness, death, etc.) and sleep poorly. They may complain that they have strange dreams or nightmares. Many have suicidal tendencies.

Indigo children love anything and everything. Love is their main credo, “I will save the whole world!” - their main motto. They easily forgive insults, protect the weak, and do not accept violence. Kind, generous, honest, noble. Therefore, many perceive them as “not of this world.” Although, apparently, everything is rather quite the opposite.

Nuances of education

The unusual behavior of indigo children leads many parents to the conclusion that they are raising their child incorrectly. And if you use generally accepted methods, then, unfortunately, this is true. They are not suitable for rainbow children (indigo is also called that).

They cannot be limited by rules and dogma. And there is no need to attribute their restlessness to attention deficit disorder and hyperactivity. Channel their energy and talent in the right direction, and your little one will grow up to be a serious, focused person. And maybe he will reach unprecedented heights in his professional activities.

Yes, raising a genius is not so easy. But parents are quite capable of creating conditions for the development of his extraordinary personality. The main thing is to contribute in every possible way to the realization of the child’s abilities. Which, in principle, is what all mothers and fathers of even the most ordinary children, without exception, do.

It is also important to preserve in the little indigo the faith in goodness, the ability to love, to be open to people and to look at the world with eyes wide open.

Love your rainbow little one. After all, love is the meaning of his existence

When raising your little indigo, clearly understand that a person of a new era is growing in your family. A person who in the future may well become outstanding, do something important and meaningful for humanity. And what exactly it will be - we will see a little later...

Indigo Children phenomenon


I propose to understand and consider in detail the questions: where did the concept “Indigo Children” come from, does this phenomenon have a real basis?

According to reference books, this concept was first coined by a woman considered a psychic, Nancy Ann Tapp, in her 1982 book Understanding Your Life Through Color. The term became widely known in the late 1990s due to its mention in sources related to the New Age movement. Indigo children are credited with many different properties, such as: a high level of intelligence, extraordinary sensitivity, telepathic abilities and many others. other. It is also claimed that “indigo children” supposedly represent a “new race of people.” (Wikipedia)

To be honest, the phrase “new race of people” is very alarming. But we'll come back to this later.

Very often, parents who recognize indigo children in their children, admiring them, declaring them almost missions, say that these children bring completely new knowledge. On the Internet you can find many videos where the speech of a child called indigo is recorded. Even from the context of the speech, we will see that an important role in what the child says and tries to convey to us so emotionally was played by his parents and the information environment in which he is brought up.

Let's remember how a child is born into this world.
A child is like a blank slate, which gradually, through the process of socialization, upbringing by parents, and society, becomes a person. There are many examples of children being raised by various animals, and if a child was found and then tried to be reintroduced into the human environment, the child had great difficulty getting used to any kind of life in human society; very often it is even impossible for such people to master speech. Take any child, even a talented, capable one, miss the moment of socialization, and, as a result, he will not be able to live in human society, let alone demonstrate his abilities. So maybe such children should be called gifted by nature, capable, talented. And the key role here is played by society itself, parents.

I suggest you watch another film on this topic. It provides discussions about gifted children and their role in society. The features of the mental processes of gifted children are examined very well. Quite often, such children include hyperactive children, children with attention deficit disorder, and the reason is either birth trauma, or improper upbringing, as well as simply a lack of attention and lack of love from parents. It is with excessive praise or lack of attention and love from parents that tragedies occur with these children.

In the literature on Indigo Children, there are statements that this is a new race of people, and people should be understanding of the negative, antisocial side of their behavior. This Indigo Children theme was further developed by Lee Carroll and Jane Tober, authors who published numerous books on the subject of channeling. No matter how fans characterize channeling.

Although Lee Carroll and Jane Tober admit that they are not experts in the field of raising children, they still expressed their opinion on this topic, and this opinion became the basis of an almost planetary fashion on the topic of “indigo children.” Here are the ten most common qualities that, according to the authors, are characteristic of such children - a kind of “ten commandments of indigo” (in parentheses there are small comments about each of these qualities):

Quality 1. They come into this world with a sense of royalty (and often behave accordingly). ( Question: do other children have an innate sense of inferiority and a “Cinderella complex”?)

Quality 2: They feel that they “deserve to be here” and are quite surprised that others do not always share their opinion. ( Note - What kind of strange society do children not deserve to be in?)

Quality 3. They do not doubt their importance. Often they tell their parents “who they are” ( Note - this means information about the past incarnations of this child and his purpose, mission in this life. Well, this quality is inherent not only to such children...).

Quality 4. They do not have absolute authorities, they do not consider it necessary to explain their actions and recognize only freedom of choice. ( Note – this thesis confuses two different things. The absence of absolute authorities is a normal feature of a sane person, and not of a fanatic and a zombie. And the reluctance to explain one’s actions can be caused both by one’s own lack of understanding of the reasons for these actions, and by disrespect for others. And freedom of choice is not equal to permissiveness, as it is interpreted in the indigo ideology, but awareness of one’s enormous responsibility for each of one’s actions).

Quality 5. They don't do some things at all; for example, they find standing in line unbearable. ( Note - this is a sign of hypertrophied egoism, on the one hand, and inability to wait, intolerance, on the other).

Quality 6. They get lost when they come into contact with conservative systems, where, instead of expressing creative thought, traditions are strictly observed ( I immediately remember good old England with its stiffness and rituals. But there is not so much such conservatism in the world...).

Quality 7. They often see a more rational way to do something at school or at home, but others perceive this as "breaking the rules" and their unwillingness to adapt to the existing system. ( Note – if, as Nancy Ann Tapp believes, indigo children began to appear only in the 70s of the 20th century, then who then changed existing systems throughout human history?).

Quality 8. They seem unsociable unless they are in the company of their own kind. If there is no one around who has a similar mentality, they often withdraw into themselves, feeling that no one in this world understands them. Therefore, establishing social connections during the learning period is quite difficult for them. ( Note – it’s strange, if they came to change our world, then first of all they should be able to contact this world, and not isolate themselves from it...).

Quality 9. They do not respond in any way to accusations of violation of discipline (they remain deaf to statements like “just wait, your father will come, find out what you have done, then you will see...”). ( Note – education based on force and coercion is, of course, incorrect education. But the absolute lack of discipline, as is customary in the “indigo ideology,” borders on anarchy. In historical times we have already gone through this...).

Quality 10. They are not shy about letting you know what they need. ( Note – is a small child embarrassed to ask his mother for something to drink or eat?).

One statement that fits well with these “10 qualities” is a quote:

psychotherapist, Doctor of Medical Sciences Vladimir Kireev: “The enthusiasm of some researchers who overly extol the Indigo phenomenon is alarming. Thus, they belittle everyone who does not meet the necessary criteria, in fact, again dividing children into pure and unclean, worthy of respect and those who can tolerate it, because they are dullness, ballast, the remnants of a degenerating generation. The next step in the evolution of such a point of view is known. One of the countries announces: we have the most Indigo children born in the world, which means we are prophets, we are the future of humanity, we are the superior race. We've already been through something like this. Isn’t this fascism, only on a much higher – spiritual – level?”

Who are they, Indigo Children?

You've probably already heard about Indigo Children somewhere or read something on this topic. Who are they? Wise ancient souls who came to change the world for the better, or cruel aggressors - children killing children? What is their mission on earth? And most importantly: what should parents do if they have an Indigo child in their family?

It is difficult to talk about Indigo without using some metaphysical concepts such as aura, soul, angels, past lives, etc. Therefore, a logical question arises: how should inveterate materialists relate to all this? I see two options:

1. Postpone the article until those wonderful times when you feel that you are ready to perceive this kind of information. Unfortunately, some people sometimes feel that events or things that are beyond their understanding are just absurdities that are not worth paying attention to.

2. Try to feel and understand your children, especially since modern kids are incredibly spiritual and are born with innate knowledge.

Indigo in detail

The story of the Indigo Children began about 20 years ago. They were first mentioned in 1982 by Nancy Ann Tapp in her book Understanding Life with Color. This was the first publication that described the behavior patterns of children of a new type. Nancy is a famous American clairvoyant and psychologist who has the amazing gift of seeing a person’s aura. The term “Indigo Children” is associated with the color indigo (blue-violet), because this is the color of the aura of new children. According to Nancy, these new souls were born to facilitate our transition to the next stage in the evolution of human consciousness. She noted that all Indigos are highly sensitive beings, endowed with numerous talents and strong intuition.

After Nancy’s bold assumptions, data about new children poured in like from a cornucopia. Incredible messages and wonderful stories about Indigo Children came to the site from everywhere. Many psychologists, teachers, philosophers, doctors and scientists around the world became interested in the problem. After the research, they all unanimously declared that the children had really changed. Modern kinders differ from adults more than ever before in the history of mankind.

Advice to parents: If you cannot cope with some adult task on your own, ask your child for advice. Even very young Indigos will demonstrate impressive mental work and colossal intuition. And don't be afraid to tell the truth about your problems, because honesty is the best policy with Indigos!

In addition, all Indigos have high self-esteem. They come into this world with a sense of their own greatness and often behave accordingly. Indigos feel that they “rightfully belong here” and are sincerely surprised if other people do not share this opinion. Moreover, they themselves do not doubt their own mission. They often explain to surprised relatives “who they are.” For example, the typical answer of an Indigo child to the question: “Do you need to love yourself?” - “Of course, I love myself because it makes me strong!” Truly, the wisdom of the Indigo is admirable.

Indigo Angels

Absolutely all children of the new type are very sensitive to energy and feel completely unusual things. Very early they form their own opinion about who God is and who they themselves are. They respond with pleasure to spiritual conversations; some see angels, fairies and other supernatural friends, and talk about religion. Recently, I myself witnessed how a two and a half year old girl told the story of her past life, naming the names of former relatives, names of cities, describing in detail the house in which she previously lived, etc. Perhaps this story will seem to someone an implausible invention of a child or will cause the assumption that it was the parents who decided to tell the tales. In this case, I advise you to take another look at point 1 “How to deal with this” at the beginning of this article.

The spiritual inclinations of Indigos are related to the global tasks that face them. It is clear that new children have the power to change the world. The authors of the book about Indigo Children say that they come to us to usher in the beginning of a New Era. These wise and spiritual children are the key to a better world. Characteristics of an Indigo Child
(compiled by American doctor of psychology Doreen Virtue)

1. Determined and persistent.

2. Born later than 1978 (it was in this year that the first children began to be born not with a golden aura, but with a blue-violet aura.)

3. Shows himself to be a creative person, has a penchant for music and poetry.

4. Prone to bad habits.

5. “Ancient soul”, feels as if he is not 13, but already 43.

6. Intuitive, capable of making the right decisions, relying only on his intuition.

7. Independent and proud, even in humiliating situations.

8. Capable of rage and cruelty if he comes across an insurmountable wall of indifference and lies.

9. Prone to insomnia, restless sleep, nightmares, often has difficulty falling asleep or is afraid to fall asleep.

10. Burns with a desire to help the world in some great cause.

11. Has high self-esteem

12. In adolescence, periods of depression are common, and thoughts of suicide have occurred.

13. Seeks real, strong and sincere friendship, urgently needs the unconditional love of loved ones, requires a lot of attention.

14. Often feels attached to plants or animals. Some Indigos are so in love with nature that they understand the language of plants and birds, they rejoice, suffer and worry with them.

15. The child categorically refuses to do some things, for example, stand in line. All Indigos hate it when they are forced to do something simply because “I said so” or “that’s how it should be” or “everyone else does it.”

16. Previous methods of education do not work on him. He does not respond at all to strict “educational measures”, such as punishment, threats or humiliation.

17. A child gives the impression of being unsociable if he is not in the company of his own kind. If there is no one around who has a similar mentality, they often withdraw into themselves, feeling that no one in the world understands them.

If your child meets 14 or more of the above points, then he is an Indigo. But there are exceptions: psychologists believe that there can be a lot of Indigo types, just like there are shades of blue.

Indigo style education

Raising an Indigo child is an incredibly difficult and responsible task. This process will require self-discipline, consistency, wisdom and attention from parents. And, of course, you can’t do without parental love. Because the story of the Indigo Children is a story of love. Start right now, because it’s never too late to prove your love to your children.

Success in parenting depends on several conditions. But, perhaps, the main one is... the courage of parents. Not everyone will agree to have a frank conversation with a child about their shortcomings and weaknesses. It’s even harder to change something about yourself before you begin to educate others.

Therefore, Indigos have little trust in parents and “outdated” teachers. They see that adults teach something completely different from what they themselves do. Parents should not forget that Indigos intuitively know our adult techniques and see when we think one thing, say another, and act in a third way.

One of the secrets to raising an Indigo child is discipline. Children need moderate severity and certain limits of behavior. At the same time, the boundaries of what is permitted must be clearly defined. Since permissiveness harms Indigo, children should not “sit on their parents’ heads.”

There are a few more important rules things to keep in mind if you are dealing with an Indigo child. They can be described as a code of parental honor.

1. You can't lie to children. Under no circumstances. The “half-truths” that parents often resort to when trying to protect their children from harsh reality are also harmful. 2. Talk to children like adults. They like it. A frank conversation with parents is very important for Indigo. During such a conversation, put love into every word spoken.

If the relationship is not going well with a teenager, then a frank conversation is the only way out of the current situation. The conversation may not be the most pleasant, but listen to everything he has to say. The main thing is don’t lose your temper, don’t make excuses and don’t read lectures. When a child speaks, you hear life itself, whether you agree with it or not. If you don't like something, breathe deeply and continue to listen and learn. After all, this is precisely the case when “the truth speaks through the mouth of a child.”

3. Indigos need to be respected. It is known that all the children who shot their fellow students in American and Japanese schools were Indigos. It is also known that among them there were no children for whom their parents were best friends and who had an equal right to vote at home.

How to recognize Indigo

Short
- From a very young age, the child demonstrates to others his “sublimity”, “uniqueness”, “outstanding qualities”, “royalty”;
- for him there are no authorities and idols;
- he performs all his actions in accordance with his own feelings and the dictates of common sense;
- without hesitation he tells you what he wants;
- He has his own view of the world around him. As a rule, this view does not coincide with the parent's;
- any blackmail, persuasion, “traditional measures of influence” (“Now Baba Yaga will come and eat you!”) have no effect on him;
- gets fed up with activities very quickly and concentrates on one thing, but for a very short period of time;
- prone to phobias (including fear of losing a loved one or one’s own death);
- would prefer to learn only from their own experience, that is, to gain knowledge from personal experience, rather than diligently cram educational material;
- feels very uncomfortable in the company of ordinary children. May complain to parents that “no one understands him at all”;
- quickly chooses his own way of learning and relentlessly follows it, even if it does not coincide with the opinion of parents and teachers;
- often violates generally accepted rules and prohibitions;
- prefers creativity to all other types of knowledge;
- may suffer from sleep disturbances and nightmares;
- does not tolerate violence either against the surrounding world (animals, plants, other people), or against himself.

Details

- Looking into the eyes: I find that one of the most obvious signs of indigo children/adults is that they look directly at you while talking. I mean - they look straight into your eyes! They love to make eye contact. Eyes are the windows of the soul, and they know this and can learn more about you in a minute by looking into your eyes than if you talked about yourself all day. This makes many people feel uncomfortable, but this is the indigo way. You'd be surprised how few people make eye contact, so this is an important indigo trait.

- Strong-willed: This is especially difficult for a woman, but if she is indigo, she will create enemies for herself too easily, but this is not her fault. The fact is that indigos are goal-oriented, and humanity simply does not know how to deal with such women.

- Loyal: Indigos are very, very loyal to their friends and have a hard time if their loyalty is not returned in kind. For this reason, they will move on quite easily, but will lick their wounds until they can fully understand why this happened. Sometimes they will live with it for too long. One of the lessons they have to learn is how to take it easy, because this game is called - move on, their presence is required somewhere else.

- Strong in passions: Indigos have strong feelings about almost everything, including sex if love is involved. If not, forget about sex, but their affection will manifest itself in other activities. This passion is also seen in the fact that they need to speak up about everything and what's more, they are able to talk about almost any subject.

- Right hemisphere: We enjoy music, painting, literature, writing and especially spirituality. But because we have such a deep understanding and ability to learn everything, if we consider the computer to be a creative tool, we will create what most people consider a left-brained endeavor. It all depends on how we evaluate effort. If it's a labor of love, it doesn't matter what we do or how difficult or left-brained it is. Our strength lies in the creative aspect of ourselves.

- Driven by Rage: Until indigos are truly able to come to terms with who they are and understand why their life up to this point has been so difficult, yes, anger will be our main motivator. Anger at dishonesty, anger at people who bring suffering in this world, anger at your past, anger at authority, you name it. Until we come to terms with ourselves, our purpose, we will spend a lot of energy on anger [aggression]. Other people will see our inner anger long before we are willing to even admit that it exists.

- Money: Indigos, since they are not “middle of the road people,” are able to either accumulate large amounts of money and have a financially stable life, or they belong to the proverbial type of starving artist, i.e. those who are barely able to earn a living. Once again, when we come to terms with ourselves, we will be able to recognize that helping others, or fulfilling our purpose, costs money. From this moment on, we can come to the decision that earning money is necessary for higher quests. Unfortunately, too many spiritual practices teach that to be spiritual is to be poor. Ugliness. The true teaching is that you cannot serve two masters, one of which is money and the other is spirit. Having said this, it makes sense to recognize that if you make money serve your purpose while continuing to walk along the path of the spirit, then you are not serving money. Think about it a little!

- Teachers: Indigos are teachers in one sense or another, but not always in the normal sense. If someone can talk to someone and help in this way, it is a teacher. If they go into healing, they would rather teach it than practice it. The key point here is that everything they do is viewed as an attempt at teaching.

- Highly intelligent: This, no doubt, brings a lot of trouble. Indigos are indeed highly intelligent, but from childhood it can be a direct humiliation for a parent who cannot cope with a highly intelligent child, therefore, such children are not allowed to develop their true talents. As an indigo matures, others may wonder what is wrong with this person (indigo) and will say things like: “You are so smart, why are you wasting your time on this...” etc. Indigos will either use their intelligence , or they will play fools, again there is no middle ground on this road. But outsiders will see the indigo's mind, no matter what he does, and often before the indigo himself can admit this property.

- Painful Honesty: Non-Indigos often don't see the need for the kind of honesty that Indigos have. They even consider her cruel. If indigos cannot be honest, they will prefer to remain silent, because they consider walking down the middle of the road of partial honesty too destructive for themselves. The key point for non-Indigos is simple: don't ask an Indigo anything unless you are prepared to deal with direct honesty. Dishonesty = a game, and indigos don't play “games.”

- Don't play “games”: Indigos don't play "games" and feel insulted when other people play "games" with them.

- System Destroyers: This applies to myriad areas. They have an aversion to traditional learning, so they find alternative ways i.e. homeschooling for your children. They enjoy learning and teaching, but not in traditional ways. During the picnic, more than likely, they will be at one with the children and teach them crazy, funny and fun things to do in the general environment. Regarding the medical system, they will again find themselves in favor of alternative treatment/medicine. In government, they will begin to cope with the situation using non-standard approaches. The list goes on and on. Just know that if there is any system, the indigo will be the one who will consider changing it or openly change it.

- Depression: I mention them here because if indigos are not “woke”, or feel unhappy because they are not doing what they came to do, this will most often manifest itself as depression. Such depression quite often leads to the use of drugs, alcohol, disorders due to poor nutrition and/or behavioral disorders of one kind or another. This may also happen because they were told as children that they were not good enough or good for anything, and they believed it.

- Job: In general, indigos prefer to work alone, or as private owners and the like. But if they are in a shared workspace, you will be able to recognize them because they will either be on their own or very social (there is no middle ground). A woman will more than likely also create friction with her colleagues, which comes from willpower. If she is known to be an indigo and is accepted as an indigo, you most likely have one of the best employees or employees you have ever had. The key here is recognition. They need to be respected because they don't work like everyone else, but they certainly do their job 150%. If they work alone, run their own business or the like, you can only wonder how they manage to get things done, because - once again - they do not work like everyone else, but everyone else admits that they have gone much further!
