What Is a Indigo Child? What Is The Meaning Of Indigo’s? And Why Do They Call Indigo Children, Indigo’s?

Many questions you might have about the “New Age Concept” of Indigo Children. But in this article we dive deep in the Meaning of Indigo Children. What Is a Indigo Child and Why Do They Call Indigo Children, Indigo’s? I will give you my point of views on how I will define the meaning of Indigo Children. After you have watched the video and read the entire article you will then have a rational and intuitive answer on your question; ‘What is a Indigo Child“?

So What Is a Indigo Child Exactly?

Indigo Children are according to Wikipedia a New Age Concept that was developed by Nancy Ann Tappe and further developed by Lee Carroll and Jan Tober. Nancy believed that Indigo Children are children (also adults) who have special, unusual, and sometimes supernatural traits or abilities. Nancy found out that some children were able to see colors around people. This idea had his origin in the late 1970’s and gain more popularity in the 1990’s through a series of books and movies. The best movie that I can recommend is the one with Donald Neale Walsch author of Conversions with God. (See the trailer below)

A Indigo Child or Adult is just a “normal human being” but is more intuitive developed then other people. There are some Indigo Traits and Characteristics which I will discuss in another post. In the way I look at the Indigo Generation or why do they call them like that is what I will explain in video below:

How I look right now today to the Indigo Generation.

As human beings we are very attached to our identity. We need to have a identity otherwise we wouldn’t be here at this time at planet earth. Our identity, self image or ego is part of our 3D (Third Dimension) existence. It’s part of the illusion of Duality, Separation, Good/Bad, Right or Wrong, Judgement, Externalization, Materialization etc. Without our identity we would simply ascend out of our psychical experience. As we are evolving as spiritual beings we wake up and look at our current state. Our current identity shall I say. Then we realize that it’s not longer resonating with us anymore and look for a new identity. Hence depressions and such.

That’s why so many Spiritual Seekers tend to label themselves with all sorts of identifications such as Indigo Children, Rainbow Children, Chrystal Children, Starseeds etc. Then our mind like to categorize things like personality traits, characteristics, different soul purposes etc. Eventually we are all coming from Source as a bit of stardust. We came here with the desire to remember our Essence with the intention to express itself in the purest form. Or I can say that we took a nose dive into a mud-pool (lower states of 3D consciousness) and now we wish to purify ourselves and remember what’s like to bath ourselves in a much higher vibrating fifth dimensional consciousness. The state of unconditional love, joy, peace, fulfillment and enlightenment. This will be one of the primary desires, goals and mission of a Indigo Child. To ascend in Higher Consciousness.

However there is some sort of truth to find in the Indigo Generation that I will continue to describe.

How I found out about the concept of Indigo Children.

Between 2008 & 2009 I worked in the shipping industry as a shipping agent for a Dutch Coastal Carrier. During that time I started to struggle with depression like I couldn’t express myself in that job. Obviously I didn’t really knew much about myself. All I ever wanna to do was to have “success” in the eyes of my farther who expressed his narcissistic behaviors on me. Which explains my depression…

Also during that time I had a long distance relationship with someone who lived in Spain which also caused that I started to open up emotionally. And opening up emotionally didn’t mean such a joyful experience. Because of my depression I knew that I had to work for myself again which I also did during my college year. I was after “freedom & independence” which caused even more stress and anxiety because I was far away from being connected to my joy. I learned about Internet marketing and I decided to make money online while living the good life in Spain.

It didn’t happen in that way and pretty soon I lost all my savings and had to give up my rent. Went back to my fathers place. He thought I “lost my mind” (which also could be a good thing) and suggested I moved in with my mother. The issue was is that I didn’t had a very good relationship with her because I didn’t grew up with her. Hence the depression and feelings of lost, ungrounded, irrational and hopelessness. During 2010 I was unemployed because of my resistance against authorities such as employers, the system and the government. Which is also one of the problems of Indigo Children / Adults. Resistance against authorities, rules and regulations. Indigo’s tend to question everything!

During my moments of feeling completely lost my mother suggested to visit a friend of hers. A astrologer. I thought why not, got nothing to lose here while I almost lost everything already (such as my old identity). She found out that I was actually not a Aquarius but a Pisces as I am from 19-02-1986. That makes me the first day in Pisces. However the whole Aquarius sign also supports a lot of my personality. What that means for me is that you can read more about in my about section.

That lady also suggested me to pick intuitively 3 bottles with a color. I picked Red, Blue and Indigo. These were probably colors that resonated with my Aura Field.

Is The Meaning Of The Indigo Child Nothing More Then a Aura Color?

Now you probably still don’t know What Is a Indigo Child but hang on with me as it will become more clear. As you might know we have various bodies. We have the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual body. This can also be identified as Energy or as Light Body. Reiki Healers like myself work with the Light Body as it can support, heal and purify all the other bodies.

In the Energy Body we have so called Chakras. They are not visible but energetic. As you increase your sensitivity through Mindfulness, Meditation, Spiritual Development, Energy Healing and Diet you can get more in touch with them. Some “Indigo’s” can even see them in the sense of colors. More about that in the post about Indigo Children Traits and Characteristics.

We have 7 chakras inside the body and 5 above the head which will connect us deeper and further to Source Energy, The Universe or God. Each chakra represent a state of consciousness and a area in our life. I am not going to describe them all right now but the Third Eye Chakra which represent our internal vision, intuition, Truth and see beyond the physical plane contains the Indigo color.

People who have this energy center more open are overall more sensitive and have a deeper knowing of the world around them. They know at a deeper level what’s real and what is fake. Meaning what is Authentic and in align with the Laws of Nature/The Universe. Fear, Control, Manipulation, Lack, etc DO NOT resonate with the natural laws of nature. High Sensitives know this at a deeper soul level. That’s why the resistance against authorities! That’s why the resistance against the many rules of our society that do not support authenticity, individuality, intuition, joy, creativity and a holistic approach to life overall. The many rules Indigo’s struggle with have to do with “fitting in” as a production model of our capitalistic society and mindless consumerism.

The crazy hours we need to work in order to “do well” in our primitive society feels very frustrating. Primitive because there is less time for meaningful things like practicing Art, Meditation, Self Actualization and Making Authentic Connections with like minded spirits. Stuff that makes the soul flourish.

To sum it up…

A Indigo Child is in my perspective a Highly Sensitive person that see the world in a interconnected way. A Indigo can be very intelligent without the recognition. The reason for that is because of the lack of interest in our capitalistic believes. That’s why a Indigo can easily be labeled with various personality disorders such as autistic, ADD, ADHD, etc. A Indigo child is creative, artistic, feels deeply connected to nature and/or animals. Has a interest in the spiritual / paranormal world and has a ability to communicate with it. A Indigo can really thrive in life once he has accepted and embraced his true gifts.

He will suffer as soon he will neglect and suppress his own gifts and True Authentic Self. That

can easily happen because of his empathetic personality that sometimes like to please others in order to maintain the peace. Empaths could attract or grow up with really “broken people” like a narcissist for example. There is a silent healer in each empath that wants to help even when he can totally lose himself in the process. When that happen the empath probably need the same amount of time to heal, recover, remember and reconnect with his own essence for the time that was “being lost” in that polluted relationship. The good news is however is that Indigo’s are real fighters and warriors. Warriors of the Light ;-).

The purpose of a Indigo Child is to “find his way back home.” Which means doing that what makes him feel connected to his own heart. Doing so will help him to develop his healing abilities and many other gifts and talents. Being holistic, skilled and gifted in so many ways can also come with many challenges. That’s why this website!

There are many other things you need to be aware of which I will share with you in my other videos & articles about the Indigo Generation.
