Hi Rishi,

I'm a little confused. What little I know of Indigo, I thought it was ones born in the late 1970's.

Indigos started coming in the early1900's. What has been happening is that the Indigos coming in now are the Crystal types..

I'm an adult Indigo, but don't really talk much about it.

Much of the time, I feel a little distressed by the way people have taken the whole "Indigo issue" and run with it, in some strange almost commercial sense. I don't really want to come across as too grumpy, here... it just seems to me like a lot of parents who want little Johnny to be "special" have slapped the "indigo" label on kids who jut happen to be "challenging," but have little to do with being Indigos.

That aside... I was somewhat aware that "something was up" from about age 4-5, when I overheard adults say things like I "scared" them because it seemed like I could look right into their souls... and I could "see" people's stories. I'm vaguely aware that I am to teach something... but haven't really found an outlet for that beyond guiding people on a one-on-one basis.

What was really important to me as a child was the insights I had received and the effects of those insights I had witnessed. That was proof for me that I was endowed with something very different than my peers in some way.Knowing you are different has its own dark side. I never felt part of any group and maintaining friendships was difficult. School was also an issue, I was told i was very bright, but, I did not achieve what was expected. Too much downside, until, one day, I had read an interesting book written by J.Krishnamurti, there was an I know (aha) moment and it was from that insight and knowing I felt a sense of belonging somewhere. That was ages ago. I am now on an ever growing path learning more and exciting things and the adventure is absolutely wonderful...

There a no frills being and Indigo, there is much soul searching and hard work.

Rishi & Peter, thanks for sharing about Indigo's. The only thing I have read was by Lee Carroll "Indigo Children" and that was a few years ago. So that was why I'd asked about when they started arriving. I thought he'd said the late 1970's.

Take care, Deb

what is an Indigo person?

I get a genral idea from the postings, but it would help to get an axplanation.

Rishi, how do you know you are an indigo adult, and how can you be so certain about the purpose of your life.

I mean, I suspect I have some of the charactreristics, especially that about reading people's hearts - it has always frigthend me, because it is not only a gift, but it gives you power - which I am very respectful of. And it feels like conceit for me to claim I am an enlighten person - although eventually I act like one, because when I am certain about something, or someone, it happens just like I see it - and I can not explain why nor how I knew.
