I looked into this whole Indigo thing years ago, and eventually came to the conclusions that 1- I am not convinced it is a real or valid phenomena as it is explained. 2- What does it matter whether one is or isn't, even if it is real?

I dropped any further concern about it when I met couples into this idea that were treating their kids differently because they thought they were Indigos, and were neglecting their needs for limits and protection (spoiling them rotten, in other words). They were encouraging an unrealistic sense of self importance and superiority that was already starting to get in the way of these kids social skills and practical experience.

If there are Indigo's they don't need to know it or have others know it. What would come of you knowing you are an Indigo? What would that change?
If you are an Indigo, then you have a more clear and present access to levels of consciousness which are higher, and can get all the guidance, information, wisdom you need- you don't need anyone else to tell you anything or act differently towards you.

JUst my humble advice thrown on the table and you are free to ignore it (and I wouldn't be offended!
) but I would let go of the labels and catagories for now and just look within open minded to figure out who you are.

Perhaps I may, however in order for something to exist it first needs a name as an identity. What convinces one that a " God" exists God would be nothing with out a name and an idea behind it. A cromagnon could have told a Neanderthal " you look and think different because you have a mental disorder along with a physical deformity " you are no different then I because you are different you are less." Then man evolved, whether I be indigo or not I know I am unique and thus proud. Someday may we all know a truth.

Thank you for sharing that.

I think it is amazing that you have had these experiences, if I could ask, do most of these perceptions flash accross your vision sort of "time-lessly"? These perceptions you are having seem like those experienced by anyone who is working to see more clearly, I wouldnt be surprised if you told me you are a meditator, I have had simillar experiences usually when I am meditating regularly and not so caught up in myself. In regard to that feeling of lack of belonging, or not being from here, I think it is natural to feel this way when you contrast your experiences with the state of the world right now, a longing to get back to some place you taste but cant describe. Maybe I am reading into you to much, or superimposing my own feeling onto yours, but I think your experiences are great and normal. The indigo child concept might feel safe for you, so keep exploring it without getting to stuck in this or that answer. You are asking the right questions.
Good luck!

Mockery is but an evasive question, as you are clearly set on your beliefs I shall make not attempt to convince you otherwise.

You share a valid point and I agree no parent should spoil their kids with an egotistical idea of superiority, that's how politicians are born 'lol' luckily I was never spoiled far from it along with an entrained sense of unimportance.

I thank you for your consideration. A way to describe my abilities is difficult at best its like thoughts but it feels more like the details are bieng sent to me almost as if the persons brain is telling mine. It's strange and incredibly difficult to describe. It's more like I just know it's just second nature. And no believe it or not I do not meditate I have add so I find it immensely difficult to focus long enough to do so. Namaste

If everything in life is held together by Energy, giving atoms a consciousness,, then what if we evolved to be able to interact with Energy on another level...? Telepathy, telekinesis, teleportation etc...

Scientists have said in the last 5000 years human evoltion has gone in to the fast lane of evolution..

Humans only use 8-10% of potential brain power, scientists think 97% of our DNA is 'junk', there are 64 proteins in the human body and only 20 of them are switched on...

Just recently at least 2 universties have noticed the suns particles having a direct effect on radioactive elements in their laboratories, possibly by completely new particles..

The human body has at least 8 radioactive elements in it,, when they change we change


It's always been about our true potential that the elites fear the most. Its because if this we've been kept in a world of fear, egos and insecurities!

Try not to let you limit yourself by limiting your potential!.... Keep an open mind!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

And to the OP,

Remember, we've been told what to do, how to think, what to think, how to act,,, etc, since day dot. Taking away our gut instinct/6th sense if you will.

They say we need to stop thinking with our heads and we should start thinking from the heart,, just a thought...

In your post you state- "Due to my upbringing of illogical ignorant skepticism I can't help to question without irrefutable evidence."


There's your answer surely, because of your parents way of thinking, the same traits have rubbed off on you, which means even if you had that solid evidence, there would still be part of you that wasn't satisfied no matter what...Stop thinking so much! quieten the mind and stop fueling the [fears, egos and insecurities] wastes of Energy..

Intead put that Energy into faith, belief in yourself. In turn put that new Energy in to Life around you


Stop reacting and pro-react


Remember, we've all been bought up wrong in some way, we've all inherited our guardians 'more negative' points in one way or another,, we all have to go against the grain in some way...

Just my 2 cents...

Namaste

Maybe you are one
Maybe i am one

What will you do if you have the answer that you are really one
will it change something to your life ?
NO .. because inside of you .. you already know the answer
you knew the answer from a very young age that you were different from others
not thinking the same way normal kids think

We still live in a prison system ..
hard to change something within that system

indigo people are the little helpers
to help during the transition we will have soon
2012 wasnt predicted thousand of yrs ago for nothing

i'll put it in different words, so perhaps you'll understand.
indigos don't need a label. indigo is a label sticked to them by those that aren't one of them. that's why over 99% of those claiming to be indigos are in reality people with personality disorders. real indigo will very rarely talk about it at all, and even then it's highly unlikely such person will use the label 'indigo'.

they don't need to call themselves this or that, they don't need to prove anything to themselves, because they KNOW, and for the same exact reason they don't give a damn if someone believes them or not.

and the reason things are that way, is very simple. people like you are giving them extremely bad public relations, ridiculing 'indigo label' beyond belief. they know what they're standing for and they're not a bunch of peace-loving hippies - they are fighters with extremely strong will.

and you? you don't even know who you are. you think you're one of them? give me a break.

not to refute nor endorse claims of indigo's or anything of the sort but i have noticed that descriptions and characteristics of "indigos" are eerily similar to what we call ADHD and ADHD has been around before this Indigo concept :/ jus sayin

I do not make any attempt to mock you or be condescending , I'm sorry if you saw it that way. I really was just asking what being "indigo " meant to you . Obviously the term or the philosophy behind it serves as some catalyst which I encourage you to explore why. I understand though why my line of questioning has served unhelpful to your quest.

The term to me is relatively new , I have spent some time talking to "lightworkers" because I found it an open dialogue with many like minded people who had the same line of thinking . That's not to say we didn't have our differences either. I fit into the "model " of an indigo as well (and many , many do) but I always found the term distasteful and uncomfortable , as we all have gifts, a common creator , and play equal parts in the cosmic scheme of things.


I wish you the best on your journey

I believe you misunderstand the subject I don't consider myself more special or important than others and an ego I have would be an anti ego, just unique.


All you need is more than one indigo and you're no longer unique. I find most self proclaimed indigos have issues with self esteem. If people were truly enlightened, they would not have any need to feed the ego through validation by posting on a forum.

Well, it definitely comes down to whatever you wanna believe.
Even if you want to claim that people need to see a doctor for believing that they are here to positively assist humanity while we undergo the massive transition we are making.
Heck, if 99% of ATS believed they were indigo (and acted accordingly) I wouldn't have a problem with it.
However, since at least 75% of what I see here on ATS is pointless bickering, negativity and arguments, I kind of highly doubt that even close to the majority on here believe they are indigo.
Also, if someone could look at the situation of the world, look at themselves, and then not believe they are here to help (and thus, possibly believe they are indigo, if they choose to feel such connections) then I think that that person is more in need of a doctor.
Regardless, of course every soul on the planet is here to assist in some way, it's just that some are more aware of it than others.
I asked God when I was five "Why am I here?"
And I clearly heard a voice reply "To save lives."
That's why I believe in Indigo.
Cheers, chap!


(EDIT)
Also, I just want to say, that a) being 'indigo' doesn't make anyone more special than anyone else. And if an indigo thinks that...then maybe they are not really an indigo.
But, claiming than an indigo just 'knows' they are indigo without having to do any kind of 'research' or questioning, just doesn't make sense.
I've known my whole life that I felt 'different', and those that know me would say the same thing. I have always felt that I was here to help others, not because they were weak and I was stronger, but because I had so much passion in my heart to change any wrongdoings (in my moral opinion) that I witness.
It wasn't until about a year ago, thanks to the internet, that I heard the term 'indigo.'
How was I to know I was 'indigo' if I had never heard the term? Though many things have 'come to me,' a voice saying 'you are indigo' was never one of them.
However, when I read the list of supposed indigo characteristics...I was stunned. It nailed down my personality completely. Even out of my best friends and people I have met throughout my entire life, I had never met anyone that I knew had the same emotions/passions/personality that I did. (obviously it makes sense that there would be, but I had never met them, much less heard the term 'indigo' associated with it.)
Since then, I have 'known.'
It's not something I tell many people, if anyone at all. It's not something to brag about, that's for sure.
I shared it with my fiance and with 2 or 3 of my very close friends who are also on a spiritual path. None of them thought they were indigo, even though they are very spiritual, want to help others, etc, etc, but they all agreed that it seemed that I fit it perfectly.
Again, it's not something that I feel particularly 'proud' of, as though it makes me different and therefore better. If anything, it humbled me. And it humbled me to know that I wasn't alone.
I think it's perfectly normal, though, for someone to be unsure to whether they are or not. Look at the world we're raised in, anything 'spiritual' or 'out of the norm' or can't be explained by our present science, is completely laughed at. We're told you can't be anything special like that. Look at all the responses on here. No doubt someone may be less confident about themselves than they should be.
But I think that if you feel deeply within your soul that you are an indigo, then why not just believe? Why not let that person believe? Sure, some may use it for purposes of supporting their own ego, and it's fine for others to lovingly point that out to them, but that's all a part of learning and growing too. Even indigo's have a lot to learn about this Earthly plane.

Anyway, that's my thoughts and my story.
I hope all of you have a great day.

According to an in-depth study in Time:


Descriptions of indigo children include the belief that they are empathetic, curious, strong-willed, independent, and often perceived by friends and family as being strange; possess a clear sense of self-definition and purpose; and also exhibit a strong inclination towards spiritual matters from early childhood. Indigo children have also been described as having a strong feeling of entitlement, or "deserving to be here." Other alleged traits include a high intelligence quotient, an inherent intuitive ability, and resistance to authority.


On a side note, I think this sounds like all of OWS. On a non-side note, I'd say that this describes almost half of the people I interact with daily (including my wife and daughter). I guess I'm just confused as the whole concept just sounds like people who are a bit more "awake" than others. This is often a born-with trait but certainly not something that can't be learned.

Even the claims of supernatural ability and psychic phenomenon are pretty common among people I know. If the Indigo Child era is real, it's not nearly as rare as people think.

I completely agree with you there.
In my opinion, which I am aware is just 'my opinion', I think the difference is that indigo's came here with a little more inherent 'spirituality,' a little more of a 'connection,' if you will, but with the responsibility of assisting others reach the same level of awareness and connection.
I believe many indigo's get side tracked and do not ultimately serve that purpose, and choose to serve more of their ego-needs.
But, I also believe that those who were not considered 'indigo' at birth, but still make the conscious decision to be spiritual and 'whole' again with that awareness and connection are even that much 'more important' and celebrated (in the astral planes) than those that are indigo.
I believe our higher astral families do not look down upon humans in our ignorance and immature ways, but instead support us wholeheartedly and understand that we came to this plane to experience, learn and grow, and they respect that very very much.
So yes, the 'point' of all of this, would be that everyone on Earth is awakening to this ideals, and the further down the road we go, the less and less of a rare thing this will be.

Well said, man. I guess a close analogy would be rich people having a financial advantage yet not helping their fellow humans with their wealth yet there are poor people who will give and give and give with whatever they've been blessed with.

I would respect the impoverished philanthropist over the wealthy miser any day.

Ain't no such thang as being " indigo" period IMHO.

Just one of those Ideas that came up years ago so books could be sold (see P.T. Barnum "sucker boarn every second..etc...)

Its just like (to me) Scientology stuff. a joke-made up science fiction.

Scientology is making a very active profit off of people buying into their philosophy.
Though I am sure some individuals (authors, speakers, etc) have made a little bit off a select few who believe in indigos, I fail to see how they compare.
Scientology has an agenda, and has beliefs that require you pay money to be a part of.
People who promote indigo's are just (IMO) supporting the belief that You are powerful and have the capability to positively affect the world. Even if it's a crock, I think that's something worth believing in.
