CHAPTER 9

INDIGO CHILDREN

An Indigo child

Is soft and sweet,

One who learns quickly

To stand on their feet.

They see the world

Through different eyes.

Their "knowing" is strong.

They can't tolerate lies.

Their calling is such

That their mission's ingrained

Into their waking lives

All through their day.

They can't tolerate things

That don't hold their attention.

They bore easily

If they don't have direction.

Indigo children have

Energies unmentioned,

And cannot concentrate

Unless you hold their attention.

If these, as young children

Are given choices and care,

Their love is returned

In ways so aware.

They live in the NOW

And simply can't see

Any time than this present

And they just want to BE.

For Indigo children

Discipline is essential;

They love problem solving

Constant guidance to mention.

They may get frustrated

By ways that are rout

'Cause they need stimulation

To think things clearly out.

So if you know someone

Who is an Indigo true,

Make sure that you show them

Your respect, and love too.

Our planet is receiving new energies incarnating on it in the form of souls with a higher vibration. These new energies are different from the old energy, and are struggling to bring in a new and different vibration. They are the teachers of the future. These are the Indigo Children.

‘Indigo children’, was a term first used by Nancy Ann Tappe, who had an ability to see auric colours around people, and began seeing a new colour, indigo, around children coming into physical life from around the early 1980’s.

Many of these little souls are here for the first time, and are having trouble experiencing the energy of this lower third dimension. Once our planet passes into the higher dimensions, they will find it easier to adjust. They have only been used to living in their upper chakras, and are not used to the heavy energy on this planet at the present time. They are different because they come into this world with a new energy. They appear to be problem children, but they only appear this way because they have come from a higher dimension. They are not used to our heavy energy, and are here to be our future teachers when the planet ascends. They are very aware of where they come from and exactly who they are. It is most important that these children are given love, discipline and respect.

These little souls have lived in their upper chakras and are unable to cope with the heavy third dimensional energies that our earth has been living these past thousands of years. They are the children of the new age. These children are fully aware of their purpose, and are here to fulfil that purpose. They are our future leaders as our earth moves up into fourth and fifth dimensional energies.

A wonderful book written by Lee Carroll and Jan Tober called The Indigo Children, The New Kids Have Arrived, has cited many instances from schoolteachers, psychologists, doctors and psychiatrists, and special education teachers, that seem to indicate that these "new kids" are different from the normal kids.

Teachers are finding a greater number of children are unable to sit still and listen any longer. There are problems with all the young ones moving up in the world. This is because these children are different. The rise in the so-called ‘problem kids’ with ADD (attention deficit disorder) and ADHD is becoming alarming.

Nancy Gibbs quoted one mum in Time magazine as saying:

"These kids can be very bright, very charming – and impossible to live with. They think of things that are fun and creative at the rate of about ten per second. While you are trying to put out the fire and they set toasting marshmallows on the stove, they are in the bathtub trying to see if goldfish will survive in hot water."

These new children are very bright. In fact their IQ’s are probably above average in nearly all cases. They can bounce from one task to another in lightening time, as their brains absorb more and more information. They are beautiful, loving and giving children, but they need our discipline and respect. They need to be allowed to make choices and to treated as adults, which they know in their soul that they are. It could be Indigo children that have gone astray that are responsible for some of the terrible things that are happening today to other children. This is because sometimes their mission gets blocked, and they believe they are eliminating what is blocking them. If they are not given discipline at an early age, they do not know when to put the brakes on. It is crucial that these children are understood. They desperately need discipline and guidance, and respect for who they are. Their souls are not naive. They are great teachers, and they need to be shown the way.

Many are questioning, whether they are gifted or troubled children. They are probably both. They are gifted in that they have wonderful psychic abilities, and they are troubled because they are at a loss to understand why they are different. But once we understand them, we are the ones learning the lesson. They have a high sensitivity, excessive amounts of energy, they bore easily and appear to have a short attention span. They show signs at an early age of intuitive intelligence, seeming to know what their adult parents are thinking, and give many instances of knowing exactly who they are. We need to be able to lead them in the right direction to use their gifts wisely.

These delightful children can be very demanding, and become emotionally upset if others do not understand them. They come with a mission, and they know that their lives have a purpose, and they are here to fulfil that purpose, so they appear different to other children. The imitate everything they see an adult doing, and are very quick to learn. They are always on the move and seem to understand far beyond their years.

Here is one story from a parent:

"Little Emma was only 15 months old. She could not utter any words, nor could she walk or stand – yet great understanding and compassion were already hers. Something was going on in that little brain of hers; somehow she knew that her grandpa didn’t feel good and needed cheering up. So she crawled over to him, and pulled herself to a standing position using his knees for support, and handed him her favourite stuffed bunny. It was incredible how that man literally sprang back to life, smiling and talking to her. This happened only two days before he passed away . . . our own little miracle!"

Little children just seem to know, on a soul level, where they are going. Indigo children are open and honest. They will speak openly when confronted. It is one of their greatest strengths. They are not settling into our school systems because they know that they have a higher purpose. They already know everything they are being taught, and they get bored with repetition.

These children need respect, and they need discipline. It is most important to show discipline to these children, as it is their guiding light. It is imperative they are taught discipline in positive ways, and not punished for their seemingly bad behaviour. They need to be taught what is right and wrong, for these young souls do not have the cellular memory of earth experiences that we have. They are not equipped to make the sorts of decisions that others with more experience would be able to discern. It is best to give these children choices, for example ask them which chair they would like to sit in at meal times, or what they would like to do next. They will always have an answer and they won’t hesitate. Problems arise when you try to force them to do something that is out of alignment with their life’s purpose. There is always a compromise that should be able to be reached.

They are the children of the future, and as such they carry within them great potential for the planet. They hold the future codings for all of the planet, and they will be here as our teachers to lift us forward into the higher vibrations if we allow them their reign and show them our love, our support, and our respect. They are very intuitive. You cannot fool an Indigo child. They know intuitively what you are thinking and will be very disappointed in us if we say one thing and do another. They are little adults and as such they do not need to be treated like a child. They laugh at us when we speak in baby talk at them, because they already know who they are, and they most likely think we are silly for not speaking to them as adults. Their understanding is so much greater because they still remember where they are from. They expect to be treated like royalty – for they are indeed special.

These children are also known as star-seed children. They are different in that they ask a lot more questions. They have a knowing far beyond their years. They are capable of performing healing work, are psychic and can do remarkable things. They come in to the earth plane with full memory of who they are. They are angelic-like beings and they come to give us many gifts. They are from other planets in the universe, and they choose to come here to be the leaders of the New World order. They are coming from a totally different reality base as they have lived in a fifth-dimensional reality. These children need to be nurtured so that they can complete their mission here on Earth.

I have also been told that some of the new children are Crystal Children. These children are from other planetary systems and are carrying a new energy to the planet. As time passes, we will find more and more of these children will be different, as with the coming of the new age, new energies will be coming in to help earth's ascension. Many of the souls leaving the planet en masse during the wars and famines will be returning in the crystal vibration. They will be more evolved as they will be consciously aware of why they are here.

Since the Harmonic Convergence of 1987, these souls have been coming to the earth in their thousands. They show such innocence in the face of punishment and blame, for they are really blameless, innocent souls. They are experiencing life in the best way they can, and doing the best they can with what they are taught by us, the adults.

I believe my little grandson is an Indigo child. From the time he was born he has exuded love to everyone. Every time I have been with him, the love I have felt from his little soul remains with me for days afterwards. It appears he has that effect on others also. When he was still a young baby his little hands were never still. They opened and closed with great rapidity and he could not keep them still. He hardly slept. He wanted to see the world and anything that was going on around him. He had more energy than a young puppy. As he grows he imitates everything we do. It is like watching a miniature adult in action! When he was only about four months old, I read that these new children will be helped to recall their purpose later in life if we keep their energy in a crystal. I laid a crystal in my little grandson’s cot, and let him touch the crystal. He actually somehow managed to move this heavy piece of quartz around his cot. When he had been with it for several hours, I then wrapped it in black velvet to put aside until he reaches his teenage years.

A crystal is known to store energy. If we keep a crystal near these young ones over a forty-eight hour period, or allow them to hold it so that it receives their vibrations between the ages of four to six months old, it will receive enough of their energy. When they reach their teenage years we can return the crystal to them, and by holding or playing with the crystal, they will be able to recall much of their life’s purpose from the energy stored within the crystal. One day I will return this crystal to him and see what his reaction is. Even today at two years old, he exhibits signs of knowing all.

These children are often a handful. They need so much attention and love and it is hard for a busy parent to provide this. They are restless and enthusiastic about everything – until they get bored – which they do very easily. They constantly need something to keep them occupied. These kids are finding it hard going in school and are often the troublemakers because they need stimulation, which they are not getting in our current school system. They seem impatient and also don’t like waiting in queues. They have so much to give, if only we could listen to them for a change!

These Indigo children are beautiful souls. They come with so much innocence, and yet so much knowledge. They are not used to the heavier vibrations of this planet, and often have a hard time adjusting. They are little miracles within themselves.

The following little true story provides us with evidence that these children do carry their own little miracles. They somehow don’t reason the way we adults do. They just know things intuitively.

A Miracle⁵

Tess was a precocious eight year old when she heard her Mom and Dad talking about her little brother, Andrew. All she knew was that he was very sick and they were completely out of money. They were moving to an apartment complex next month because Daddy didn't have the money for the doctor bills and our house.

Only a very costly surgery could save him now and it was looking like there was no-one to loan them the money. She heard Daddy say to her tearful Mother with whispered desperation, "Only a miracle can save him now."

Tess went to her bedroom and pulled a glass jelly jar from its hiding place in the closet. She poured all the change out on the floor and counted it carefully. Three times, even. The total had to be exactly perfect. No chance here for mistakes. Carefully placing the coins back in the jar and twisting on the cap, she slipped out the back door and made her way 6 blocks to Rexall's Drug Store with the big red Indian Chief sign above the door.

She waited patiently for the pharmacist to give her some attention but he was too busy at this moment. Tess twisted her feet to make a scuffing noise. Nothing.

She cleared her throat with the most disgusting sound she could muster. No good. Finally she took a quarter from her jar and banged it on the glass counter. That did it!

"And what do you want?" the pharmacist asked in an annoyed tone of voice.

"I'm talking to my brother from Chicago whom I haven't seen in ages," he said without waiting for a reply to his question.

"Well, I want to talk to you about my brother," Tess answered back in the same annoyed tone. "He's really, really sick... and I want to buy a miracle."

"I beg your pardon?" said the pharmacist.

"His name is Andrew and he has something bad growing inside his head and my Daddy says only a miracle can save him now. So how much does a miracle cost?"

"We don't sell miracles here, little girl. I'm sorry but I can't help you," the pharmacist said, softening a little.

"Listen, I have the money to pay for it. If it isn't enough, I will get the rest. Just tell me how much it costs."

The pharmacist's brother was a well-dressed man. He stooped down and asked the little girl, "What kind of a miracle does you brother need?"

"I don’t know," Tess replied with her eyes welling up. "I just know he’s really sick and Mommy says he needs an operation. But my Daddy can’t pay for it, so I want to use my money.

"How much do you have?" asked the man from Chicago.

"One dollar and eleven cents," Tess answered barely audibly. "And it’s all the money I have, but I can get some more if I need to.

"Well, what a coincidence," smiled the man. "A dollar and eleven cents - the exact price of a miracle for little brothers." He took her money in one hand and with the other hand he grasped her mitten and said "Take me to where you live. I want to see your brother and meet your parents. Let’s see if I have the kind of miracle you need."

That well dressed man was Dr. Carlton Armstrong, a surgeon, specializing in neuro-surgery. The operation was completed without charge and it wasn’t long until Andrew was home again and doing well. Mom and Dad were happily talking about the chain of events that had led them to this place. "That surgery," her Mom whispered, "was a real miracle. I wonder how much it would have cost?"

Tess smiled. She knew exactly how much a miracle cost… one dollar and eleven cents … plus the faith of a little child.

A miracle is not the suspension of ‘natural’ law, but the operation of a higher law…

Walk-Ins

Many souls coming to this earth, as Indigos, return with their full memory intact. There are some, however, that do not wait to go through the birthing process, as it is too slow for them. They know they have a mission to help mankind, and cannot wait that long. So they enter into a body – usually the body of a soul who wants to leave. This is always decided on prior to the incarnation of the original soul. They take on the memories of that soul, as well as their own, and find it difficult at first realising their new life on this heavy planet. But they are here to help speed up the evolution and ascension of mankind.

A soul usually makes a completion in this lifetime when they die, but in certain lifetimes they complete their work early. In these cases, it is permitted by prior agreement that another soul takes over the body so that the original soul may go back and do other work in spirit. These incoming souls take on all the karma of the original soul, and complete any work that was undone by the departing soul before they can get on with their mission. Some of the walk-ins are fortunate enough to have full memory recall. They have to integrate into a human body which for some is not easy. If the former occupant did not look after the body, it can be quite a task. Sometimes the former spouse is a stranger to them, and it takes some working together. This is why many partnerships fail when a walk-in takes over. Sometimes it can be a near death experience, whether a drowning, a severe car accident or a life and death operation, which can bring in the walk-in. The other soul chooses to depart at this time and the new soul enters. This is a pre-arranged situation.

One walk-in spoke of the fact that they often have an energy field around them which is higher than normal people, and sometimes people can walk around them and not even see them. They almost run into them. If the energy field is high, this can be a problem for a walk-in if they are trying to communicate with others. She spoke of the problems they sometimes have of learning our languages, of trying to relate to our families and of fitting into societies on their arrival. Those known as walk-ins are sometimes from the ships that are above the earth. Sometimes they can come and go as they choose, and another soul will enter. But this is rare. Usually a walk-in will come and stay for the duration of the body’s physical life.

The difference with a walk-in and those souls born into the body from its inception is that the walk-in comes with full memory intact of its purpose and prior existence. A soul born through the birth process often loses much of its memory as it grows. All those who come through birth, or through entering the body later, will eventually recall their cellular memories but this takes time. One’s purpose is being given priority now, as the earth’s consciousness is changing and the time for this awakening is imminent.
