Indigo children are named after the colour they have in their auras. This indicates their association with the third chakra, representing intuition and psychic ability. This group of children has been born over half a generation now, and they have unique characteristics that set them apart. They are often rebellious to authority, emotionally extreme, highly intuitive, full of empathy and compassion, physically sensitive, and can be labelled as having ADHD. You can check more detailed characteristics on other sites that will help you decide if your child is an Indigo.

Why are Indigo Children important? They are going to be a primary force in raising the vibration levels of the planet, and bring wider enlightenment and ascension to the planet. Although they themselves may find life a struggle at times, with their nonconformity to traditional systems of authority and discipline, it is through their struggles that they will develop the strength to accomplish larger goals.

If you feel that your child is an Indigo, your own recognition of this, and your understanding of how to interact with and nuture your child will help a great deal. In a way, you have been given a marvellous opportunity to learn about the special path your child is going to follow, so here is a little advice on the sort of mindset you will need:

· RESPECT them

· Practice UNCONDITIONAL LOVE for your child. Love them and show it, no matter what

· Give CHOICES

· Give them FREEDOM to develop, balanced with SUPERVISION and SAFETY limits

· Do set LIMITS to protect them, but not arbitrary ones

· Tell REASONS and EXPLAIN WHY

· As much as is possible, LET THEM HELP to CREATE RULES and fair and appropriate consequences for breaking them
