utterly confused

[Maharet]

I've probably been browsing this site and others like it for ages. I've read nearly every article and plenty books that dwell on the sole subject pertaining to being an Indigo Children.

It was only about a month or two ago that I found the characteristics of being an Indigo Adult. (A technically, I could be considered an adult - I'm 21). I could remember reading this list and going, yup, yup, yup, yup. I think I said no to maybe three, if not four of them. (Maybe more because I tend to skim cause I think I already know everything) So here I am, seriously gettnig my hopes up. You know. THIS IS ME. kind of thing, and then I think. Despite the odd feelings I get and the sometimes premonitions I experience (a good portion of them I actually forget moments later in one of those probably not meant to know it moments), I'm not brimming with abilities.

My sister's boyfriend (he's a reiki (sp?) healer) says it's because I purposely shut it off. That I would be a canvas full of potential had it not scared me so much as a child (I used to see spirits - namely a little girl that haunted my baby sister's room note: it wasnt' my sister.)

is this normal? or is it because i'm still growing, still learning? or have i been supressed so much that i'm lost?

why 'ello (crappy british accent) ive only discovered this the last few months also....ive had a couple very good guides to guide me through it and ive gained so much wisdom in knowledge becuz of them...but abilities.....i dont have these amazing abilities either...i do have a deep deep connection to people i care about deeply.....and i know when something bad is going to happen to one of them or someone close to them.....i dont beleive that abilities like alot of other indigo people have are necessarily what all of us are to have...you may be surpressing them but if you let them come out....they will come back...as i was saying before though....i believe there are some who may have psychic or spiritual abiliites that seem small compared to other ones have on a psychic spiritual level...however....maybe youre ability is a kind heart...or a calming presence...or maybe people will listen to you and you can guide people.....alot of my abilities are abilities of strength and compassion and being empathetic and knowing what those around me are feeling....im a healer but i heal with my presence and my compassion and words...and i think that that is my greatest ability.....i dont know if that helps you at all just sharing....

Just remember being indigo is not about having amazing abilities, it is a vibrational thing, which means you vibrate at a different frequency to other people, and you are here to help raise the vibration of humanity. It is true that indigos do tend to be more psychically inclined, indigo being the colour of the third eye.

I see little differentiation between and adult indigo and a child indigo, if you come in an indigo you will display indigo child traits throughout your childhood and they may change a little into your adulthood, but not much, you are who you are.

It is possible that you have suppressed your psychic abilities and gifts, but they aren't the crux of your indigo identity. It has more to do with feeling different and non-human, as though you feel ancient, perhaps even a bit royal, and that you know you are here with a purpose or mission, even if you aren't aware of what it is yet. I don't buy into the ADHD aspect of indigos myself, but high intelligence and boredom are key factors to our personality.

Have you known since you were a little child that you were different and had a unique purpose? If so, that answers your question as to your indigoness more than having special abilities.

I don't have them, but I do...so do you. Mine are not overt like some have, but our empathy is very good, so least of all, you certainly will have that and won't be able to turn it off, like say, seeing ghosts and spirits and whatnot.

Learn some Reiki...that's where I started. Now I can feel energy fields and chakras, do energy work and such. It's not hard, but you do have to focus.

I think it's enough to just hold these ideas that these things are possible and not to be feared if experienced in other people.

that seems about right, i do tend to give advice to people. it's like in my nature. like i can't help it. i think i've talked people through suicide, panic attacks, the lot.

and the whole non human bit. i do feel that way. a lot. enough to where i usually limit myself ot contact with others unless it's necessary. i sometimes feel that a lot of people aren't worth my time. i have a hard time not telling people that. i entertain and jabber because i feel it's necesary.

Finally, found some answers about it. I'm really glad that I've found just what I needed to read!

I have always felt different, an alien in this world, but somehow knew that I was here for some reason. Always had a "taste" for the occult/spiritual knowledge, in my childhood I had problems with teachers and felt like royalty.

At the age of 16 I was too "mature" for my age, people said that I was really old in my wisdom, I knew too much for my age and I've always been told that I have a good presence, people seem to like me. Most of my time I'm bored.

Most of the indigo characteristics both Child and Adult.

Thank you very much to all, now I feel less lost!
