CRYSTAL & INDIGO CHILDREN

People often ask me whether their child is Indigo, Crystal, Rainbow or whatever.  My usual response is that it doesn't matter.  Please don't get caught up with dates and with labels.  The following article was written by Dr. Doreen Virtue and her interpretation of Indigo and Crystal Children.  I use the term Indigo and Crystal for recognition purposes and because those "labels" have become mainstream not only by Doreen Virtue but also by Nancy Tappe, Jan Tober, James Tyman et al.  Personally, we can get carried away by the use of labels and prefer to call these incredible children "Highly Aware" or "The ""New Kids."  Plus I believe all children coming in are special and on a mission with a purpose.

Another common question I receive is, "My child is not talking at 3 or 4, is he/she autistic?"  I am not a medical doctor and cannot give advice in that area but my answer to you is that many of these children do not talk until later because they are so telepathic and feel the spoken language is much slower than the mind.  My advice is to have a 2nd opinion and also get an opinion from a ND.

******************************************************************

How do you know if your child is a crystal or indigo child?  The following extract describes the difference between Crystal and Indigo children.  It is from Doreen Virtue’s  article Indigo and Crystal Children:

The first thing most people notice about Crystal Children is their eyes, large, penetrating, and wise beyond their years. Their eyes lock on and hypnotize you, while you realize your soul is being laid bare for the child to see.  Perhaps you’ve noticed this special new “breed” of children rapidly populating our planet.  They are happy, delightful and forgiving.  This generation of new lightworkers, roughly ages – 0 through 7, are like no previous generation. Ideal in many ways, they are the pointers for where humanity is headed…and it’s a good direction!  

The older children (approximately age 7 through 25), called “indigo children”, share some characteristics with the Crystal Children.  Both generations are highly sensitive and psychic, and have important life purposes.  The main difference is their temperament.  Indigos have a warrior spirit, because their collective purpose is to mash down old systems that no longer serve us.  They are here to quash government, educational, and legal systems that lack integrity.  To accomplish this end, they need tempers and fiery determination.

Those adults who resist change and who value conformity may misunderstand the Indigos.  They are often mislabeled with psychiatric diagnoses of Attention Deficit with Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) or Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD).  Sadly, when they are medicated, the Indigos often lose their beautiful sensitivity, spiritual gifts and warrior energy….In contrast, the Crystal Children are blissful and even-tempered.  Sure, they may have tantrums occasionally, but these children are largely forgiving and easy-going.  The Crystals are the generation who benefit from the Indigos trailblazing.  First, the Indigo Children lead with a machete, cutting down anything that lacks integrity.  Then the Crystal Children follow the cleared path, into a safer and more secure world.

The terms “Indigo” and Crystal” were given to these two generations because they most accurately describe their aura colors and energy patterns.  Indigo children have a lot of indigo blue in their auras.  This is the color of the “third eye chakra”, which is the energy center inside the head located between the two eyebrows.  This chakra regulates clairvoyance, or the ability to see energy, vision, and spirits.  Many of the Indigo children are clairvoyant.  

The Crystal Children have opalescent auras, with beaufiful multi-colors in pastel hues.  This generation also shows a fascination for crystals and rocks….

Indigo Children can sense dishonesty, like a dog can sense fear.  Indigos know when they’re being lied to, patronized, or manipulated.  And since their collective purpose is to usher us into a new world of integrity, the Indigos inner lie-detectors are integral.  As mentioned before, this warrior spirit is threatening to some adults.  And the Indigos are unable to conform to dysfunctional situations at home, work, or school.  They don’t have the ability to dissociate from their feelings and pretend like everything’s okay….unless they are medicated or sedated.

Crystal Children’s innate spiritual gifts are also misunderstood.  Specifically, their telepathic abilities which lead them to talk later in life.

In the new world which the Indigos are ushering in, we will all be much more aware of our intuitive thoughts and feelings.  We won’t rely so much upon the spoken or written word.  Communication will be faster, more direct, and more honest, because it will be mind to mind.  Already, increasing numbers of us are getting in touch with our psychic abilities.  Our interest in the paranormal is at an all-time high, accompanied by books, television shows, and movies on the topic.

So, it’s not surprising that the generation following the Indigos are incredibly telepathic.  Many of the Crystal Children have delayed speech patterns, and its not uncommon for them to wait until they’re 3 or 4 years old to begin speaking.  But parents tell me they have no trouble communicating with their silent children.  Far from it!  The parents engage in mind-to-mind communication with their Crystal Children.  And the Crystals use a combination of telepathy, self-fashioned sign language, and sounds (including song) to get their point across.

The trouble comes about when the Crystals are judged by medical and educational personnel as having “abnormal” speaking patterns.  It’s no coincidence that as the number of Crystals are born, that the number of diagnoses for autism is at a record high.

It’s true that the Crystal Children are different from other generations.  But why do we need to pathologize these differences?  If the children are successfully communicating at home, and the parents aren’t reporting any problems….then why try to make a problem?  The diagnostic criteria for autism is quite clear.  It states that the autistic person lives in his or her own world, and is disconnected from other people.  The autistic person doesn’t talk because of an indifference to communicating with others.

Crystal Children are quite the opposite.  They are among the most connected, communicative, caring and cuddly of any generation.  They are also quite philosophical and spiritually gifted.  And they display an unprecedented level of kindness and sensitivity to this world.  Crystal Children spontaneously hug and care for people in need.  

In my book, “The Care and Feeding of Indigo Children”, I wrote that ADHD should stand for Attention Dialed into a Higher Dimension.  This would more accurately describe that generation.  In the same vein, Crystal Children don’t warrant a label of autism.  They aren’t autistic!  They’re AWE-tistic!

These children are worthy of awe, not labels of dysfunction.  If anyone is dysfunctional, it’s the systems that aren’t accommodating the continuing evolution of the human species. If we shame the children with labels, or medicate them into submission, we will have undermined a heaven-sent gift.  We will crush a civilization before its had time to take roots.  Fortunately, there are many positive solutions and alternatives.  And the same heaven that sent us the Crystal Children can assist those of us who are advocates for the children…..

THINGS YOU CAN DO TO HELP CHILDREN

.  Listen to your children without giving "advice" or judgement.
.  Look through their eyes
.  Don't box them in or they may rebel
.  Remember they are our next teachers/leaders and are here to not only teach
   us  lessons but society at large.  They come to show us who we are, for they
  mirror everything back to us.
.  Watch what they eat.  These children are sensitive and may have sensitivities
  to dairy, wheat, yeast, gluten, and sugar.  Also keep away from food dyes.
.  They are highly sensitive to chemicals, artificial lighting, and loud noises
.  Change the way you relate to yourself - as you learn to love yourself and
   become more compassionate toward yourself, you will automatically relate
   to children differently.  Trust your intuition.  To help tap into their inner world
   it is imortant to first turn into your own inner voice.
.  Never lie as they know when you are not telling the truth.
.  Respect their feelings and try to balance discipline & rules with love.  Just don't  
  post the rules - discuss them!
.  Make it clear what your boundaries are.  They will not respond to "guilt" discipline
.  Practice a form of meditation or yoga
.  Spend time in Nature.
.  They respond well to alternative healing modalities:  reiki, acupuncture, cranial
  sacral, chiroprator, or any other energy work.
