Indigo Children: Your Questions
Answered | A Mayastar Energy Healing
Article
What are Indigo Children & when were
they born?
Indigo Children are spiritually advanced
humans that have incarnated on earth as
part of their spiritual mission. They have
been incarnating since the 1970s &
incarnated with increasing frequency up to
the 2012 Harmonic Convergence that
heralded the start of the Golden Age of
Aquarius.
The Age of Aquarius will be 2160 years long
& represents a time of radical shifts for
humanity as old paradigms break down &
new systems arise that are based on higher
spiritual principles, love & freedom. In 2012,
our sun moved into a dark area of the Milky
Way called “The Photon Band”, along with
the primary star of the Pleiadian
constellation, Alcyone. This alignment
marked the moment of transition from the
old age to the New Age. The 30 years either
side of the Harmonic Convergence saw an
increase in the number of Indigos
incarnating. Most Indigos alive today were
born between 1940 & the year 2000.
Why are Indigo Children here?
Indigo Children have chosen this time of
accelerated growth to incarnate as part of
their spiritual development journey. Some
are here simply to witness the revolutionary
changes or to document them through art,
music or writing. Others are here to offer
support, guidance & healing to assist the
process of Global Ascension. They are the
priests & priestesses of the New Age – and I
count myself among their number! The
services, support & encouragement I provide
through the courses I teach, the Mayastar
website, social media, podcast & YouTube
channels are part of my calling as an Indigo.
Not all Indigos’ lives of soulful-expression
will look like mine! Indigos excel in
professions that require compassion,
empathy & sensitivity so they’re often drawn
to work with animals or as carers,
therapists, counsellors, nurses, doctors,
advocates, charities, teachers (especially of
young children) and all artistic or creative
professions.
Is there a link between Indigo Children,
Autism & ADHD?
Indigo Children are those we would consider
“free spirits”. They don’t have a drive for
conformity & obedience. They don’t have a
need to fit in with others or seek approval
from their peers. They’re content to go their
own way & their boundless curiosity means
they’re always going somewhere,
researching something & discovering new
opportunities for spiritual growth! Many
Indigos are neurodivergent. For myself, my
spirituality, magickal ability & creativity is
expressed & greatly enhanced by my
autism; both autism & ADHD are common
diagnoses for Indigo Children.
What are the common traits of Indigo
Children?
Some of the common traits have been
discussed above but generally speaking,
Indigo Children are identified by their
continuous connection to the unseen realms.
They are “in this world, but not of it”. They
retain a strong connection with their spiritual
side throughout life & tend to be very
sensitive, empathic & compassionate. They
have deep connections to animals & nature.
Indigo Children & Trauma
Indigos often experience a great deal of
trauma because of their natural energetic
sensitivity. Learning to navigate the world
while retaining their spiritual connection can
be a challenge so they’re often drawn to
spiritual practices like meditation, yoga &
energy healing as a reaction to their
emotional, mental & spiritual pain.
Indigo Children tend to be very creative too
– and their creativity helps them to explore
& process the challenging experiences they
face while navigating the temporal realm.
Maintaining their connection to spiritual
planes means Indigo Children are uniquely
vulnerable to the risks of being ungrounded.
Grounding our energy is very important to
maintain our energetic integrity & natural
protection. So Indigo Children need to focus
on this skill in their early spiritual
development. A lack of grounding can result
in vulnerability to psychic attack – which
often comes from other people rather than
from spiritual entities. Those centred in ego-
consciousness can deplete the energy of
Indigos that haven’t learnt to protect
themselves energetically.
Do Indigo Children have special
powers?
Yes! Because of the connection to the
unseen realms, Indigo Children demonstrate
deep empathy, enhanced intuition & psychic
awareness, channelling abilities, healing
skills & astral projection. For myself, as a
child, I found astral projection great fun but
as I got older & the skill developed, I had to
face the challenge of learning to stay in my
body! It didn’t come naturally & a lot of my
early magickal work was centred around
managing my gifts. But not all Indigos
express their soul in that way. Other Indigos
may experience extreme emotional
connection & empathy – their main
challenge may be learning the skills to
manage their emotions, control their
thoughts & establish routines & rituals that
support their needs. Some may have psychic
awareness that presents its own challenges
as they learn to switch their ability on & off
so to not be constantly overwhelmed by an
abundance of input!
My point here is that, yes, Indigo Children
do have special powers. They are skills &
abilities that all humans have some access
to - but for Indigos, they are more
developed & more potent. And while that’s
great, it also means Indigos face unique
challenges in a world where they are likely
to be parented by non-Indigos & be
surrounded mostly by non-Indigos
throughout their lives. They can feel quite
isolated & lonely until they find their spiritual
tribe & connect with others on the same
wavelength.
But there’s good news. The difficulties they
face due to their special powers might be
insurmountable for non-Indigos, but as an
Indigo, those same special powers hold the
key to their healing & progress. The gifts
that create the problem also have the
potential to create the cure! For example,
those with a gift of empathy can begin to
heal by focusing their empathy on
themselves; the same for healing &
intuition. It can take a while for an Indigo to
address their healing needs – sometimes
they need to learn to be a little more selfish
for the sake of their health & well-being! But
once they begin the healing journey, they
also find connection with others like them &
develop their self-esteem & confidence in
navigating the world in their own unorthodox
& non-conformist ways!
