What is an indigo - interactive post

Just sharing with you some of my own perceptions of what an indigo is. This is of course to be updated with your own experience, if you like to share that. Just for fun and for ease of understanding... for the sake of expandin ourselves with joy and ease, love and grace.

Indigo children and adults are very loving and soft people. They have an expressive flow for love and life which is usually too charged for non-indigo people.

At first they do not understand why others are so nasty with each other, and then, out of defense, they usually reply back in ways that are considered inappropriate, aggressive, loud or emotional.

The first years of an indigo are usually all right. They tend to play on their own, or silently, just witnessing the outside, they are lovely and kind little children.

Problems start when they are forced to interact with other children, and they feel alienated from their own inner source when they are repeatedly taken away from their inner activities.
They love to day dream and have great fantasy. They build worlds within worlds, and are very happy when they can do that whenever they want.

Young indigo teenagers experience much discordance in their world, parents, school, authority and their highly energized minds are usually ahead of understanding why and how things happen. Usually they find the other non-indigos not able to keep up with their speed of thought.

This usually worsens when they grow up, and most of the indigos feel alone, and choose then to compromise themselves, by slowing down their own natural flow and trying to harmonize with others. This compromising makes them feel unhappy in the way that they ‘know’ they are not truthful to themselves.

They have a high inner ethic, understand respect and honor, and are – when balanced and harmonized – very capable of handling most difficult situations, where most people will fail, they will stand.

Indigo children and adults of all ages will calm down their inner rage with following attitudes :

• Unconditional love, and forgiveness for their experiments
• Softness towards them, whatever they say or express
• Honesty of communication
• Humor and genuine emotional and mental balance
• A safe and sacred space that allows them to be truly themselves, whatever they express
• True friendship and compassion
• A high moral of respect and honor, and the understanding that they bring great wisdom
