Re: Indigo Passages and Purposes by Sunfell

[Guest guest]

Thank you Zany for posting this. I was in an effort trying to explain this to a

friend just last night! It really caught my attention when I saw it posted here

today! wow..

> The Indigo life is no bed of roses. If you have read some of the particular

traits of Indigo people, you have learned that we have quite a bit stacked

against us in our early lives. In fact, we are classic late bloomers, and

because of this, Indigo youth have a very high amount of difficulty assimilating

into the mainstream. This is mostly because the mainstream caters to the average

mind and intellect, and most Indigos are far from average. This can result in

the flaring of depression, and also the abuse of alcohol and drugs. Sometimes it

leads to suicide. Misdiagnosis of ADD and other ‘new age’ illnesses add to

the confusion, and the youngster is often drugged into submission at a point of

life where they need to develop their minds the most.

> Adults often don’t have it much better. Because of a lack of adult mentors

and guidance, the adult Indigo person often finds themselves adrift, alienated,

and at odds with their lives and desires. Their particular Gifts can manifest

themselves in very frightening ways, and the great physical and mental changes

that their prime begins to bring to them can frighten them into paralyzing panic

attacks.

> In this essay, I hope to address these things, and bring some insight and

perhaps some comfort and encouragement to folks who recognize themselves as

Indigo.

> I get a lot of email from people about my Indigo writings- more than any other

subject that I speak about. One correspondent put our particular problem into

perspective when he quoted Barbara Bower’s thought that: " Indigos start as

product and gradually through their lifetimes, move into process. "  

>  

> Translated into Plain ol’ English, this means that we are late bloomers. We

have to have a certain critical amount of experience and insight and wisdom

before our real work begins. Without that experience, we languish. Some start

this process earlier than others, but it eventually boils down to events that

occur in ones twenties and thirties and lead to developments in one’s forties,

fifties, and sixties.

>  

> At this writing, I am 42, right in the middle of the main transition into my

prime of life, and currently at the beginning of the Sixth Cycle of seven year

cycles of life. My passage into this period of time was a particularly rough

one, but also very enlightening. Perhaps my experience will help ease this

passage for others who are coming upon it.

>  

> My Fifth Cycle of seven years (35-42) was relatively quiet. It was a

‘down’ time to permit time to study, work on internal growth, and prepare

myself for the next active cycle of life. I learned to use my particular Gifts,

became good at writing, webmastering, moderating groups and boards, and

permitted me to amass inner strength to again become active in public. Being

‘public’ is very difficult for me- although I am a pretty good speaker (so I

am told), I dislike large crowds and gatherings, and tend to avoid them. But my

Guidance was insistent that I build and hone these particular skills, because I

would be needing them and the inner strength I built to get through the next

Cycle. I was also told that I would be undergoing some changes to my senses- and

the act of making these changes would be painful.

>  

> I did not realize how painful. As I approached my Sixth Gateway and my 42nd

birthday, my dreams began to change, and dark clouds gathered on my mental

horizon. I was seized with bouts of anxiety and panic- what I called the

" Nameless Dread " - because all was calm and fine with my ‘real’ life, but

inside, things were in turmoil. I would lay on the couch at home with what felt

like a telephone pole piercing my chest. Think about the worst betrayal of love,

disappointment, or setback you have ever had- and magnify it by an order of

magnitude. That was how I felt- without any cause. I felt like I was under

constant psychic attack.

>  

> I finally had enough of this and went to my doctor for help. Allopathic

doctors are clueless about spiritual crises, and I did not bother to try to

explain this to him. He decided that I was depressed. My Pagan friends could not

help me either- there was no ritual or spell that could turn this off. They

theorized that I might be under some sort of magickal attack, but we really

couldn’t pin point what the source was. All I could try to do was deflect the

energy into the earth and dissipate it.

>  

> My doctor prescribed " Lexapro " for my problem. It turned me into a zombie-

unable to function, and constantly sleepy and dim. I could not read, write, or

think- all I could do was veg out in front of the TV. He switched me to

" Zoloft " , which was actually worse- in addition to the older side effects, I had

horrible dreams, gritted my teeth, and felt twitchy and quick to rage. And I was

still a zombie. I finally had enough, and after three months of nightmares, I

quit the medications.

>  

> As the effects of the medications left my body, it was like the sun was rising

on my awareness. Gradually, I could concentrate again, the strange dreams went

away, and I had no more nap attacks. I could read novels and some technical

matter without difficulty, and gradually, my ability to write and think faded

back in. The ‘flow’ was back- and better than ever. And the ‘Nameless

Dread’ was gone.

>  

> I also discovered that my native psychic capabilities were enhanced. I could

hear my Guides much better, and their thoughts came in parallel instead of

serially. My sense of other dimensions was enhanced, as was my understanding of

some aspects of the physical universe. I began to better grasp the action that

thoughts and prayers and magick has on reality, and how directed thought effects

it. I felt closer to my Higher Self, and able to interact with Hir much better.

And my sense of time and space and their interconnections has changed- it would

take an entire website to describe what I now understand. Suffice it to say that

my Big Picture has gotten much bigger.

>  

> Sadly, the Big Picture reveals a lot of spiritual rot in this world. It is

like looking at a perfect apple with spots of decay growing upon it.

Concentrating on certain areas of this rot makes it retreat and vanish, but

there are many more areas where it is flourishing. I begin to realize that the

enhancements I now have enable me to see these things, speak of them, and with

help, begin to correct the imbalances. It is the planet herself which brought us

here †" to gently redirect the great mass of humanity in a more positive

direction.

manifest in this particularly difficult manner. Here is what I have learned:

>  

> The Indigo passages are particularly rough and difficult for a reason. They

burn away the dross and lassitude and inner ignorance and fear and temper us for

strength in our true work here. The personal victory over our problems in our

personal lives and our discovery and use of the unique Indigo gifts we have

gives us the depth of experience to weather the difficulties the entire world

faces. With our own rough passages behind us, our job is to assume a role of

mentor and quiet leadership for those who also seek Light. All the pain and

suffering is our ‘been there, done that, here’s what I did to get past it’

card. And it teaches us perseverance and gives us a depth of inner reserve that

will be needed in the difficult days to come.

>  

> The current war is one obvious symptom of the great spiritual rot that has

been growing in the world for the last half century. In spite of incredible

technological advances and breakthroughs, people have sunk into incredible

depths of helplessness, physical and spiritual poverty, ignorance, fear, and

religious fanaticism. Others have taken the opportunity of the general

indifference to their governments and communities to seize and consolidate

power, squashing all competition and dissent. The gap between the rich and poor

†" in both material and spiritual matters- has become enormous.

Miscommunication and disinformation is rife, and Truth is a rare and fleeting

thing. Everything has its particular ‘spin’, and the absurd is now normal.

We have great technological tools and incredible scientific advances, but they

are being put to horrible use. Good ideas are being buried under piles of

litigation. A great cloud of fear-filled darkness is enveloping

> our world. A tiny number of power- addled people is steering the great mass

of humanity and its world into darkness and spiritual slavery.

>  

> What is the Indigo purpose? Our purpose is to anchor small, but growing points

of Light, Life, and Love into these growing spots of darkness- to provide a

place and means of hope, awakening, and insight which will begin to dissipate

the darkness. This is done in a natural and subtly quiet way, not by forceful

preaching or screaming in the streets. Indigos must use our natural Gifts and

our particular places in our communities to establish and anchor the Light, and

do it in such a way that the community we serve believes that they did it on

their own. (They may eventually discover the Lightworker in their midst, but

they will have to look carefully!) Our strength will give strength to those who

feel hopeless, and Awaken them, permitting them to shine their own Light into

the darkness. Person by person, soul by soul, light by light, the vast majority

of people will outstrip the spiritual darkness and turn this world around. Fear

will be replaced by love

> and tolerance. Ignorance will be replaced by knowledge. Lassitude will be

replaced by action. Dogma will be replaced by direct understanding. Balance will

be restored to both humanity and the planet. We will become true spiritual

peers, not the ‘us’ and ‘them’ of the old ways. When a critical turnover

point is reached in the relighting of our world, our awareness of this planet as

a living, conscious being will become more commonplace. People calling

themselves Earth Talkers will appear, speaking for the local areas, directing

the inhabitants to utilize the land in an optimal way. As people Awaken, they

will become more attuned to the Greater World- our local Cosmos- the sun, moon

and planets, and learn to work with their cycles of energy to heal both

themselves and the planet.

>  

> We will continue to evolve. Some Indigo people are undergoing another passage

into the next octave of awareness- what the New Agers call " Crystal " , but also

known as Octarine. These people will have the ability to see the vast array of

thoughts, dreams, wishes and needs of humanity, and to pop in and out of various

dimensions at will to help work on these needs. They have highly developed and

directed minds- and are capable of sensing more than one universe or dimension

at a time. This enables them to be in more than one place at once, and help to

direct Light to places most badly in need of it. They use dreams of hope and

love as well as serendipitous solutions to help anchor the Light, and give

positive visions to those whose word would propagate the Light thus established.

They help to sow and establish hope and catalyze the ability to overcome

difficulty. They tighten the light bulb in its socket.

>  

> This breakover to Light will begin slowly, but as it propagates into the

world, will pick up speed and flash into reality, overturning the darkness in a

dramatic manner. The old oppressors will try to keep their stranglehold on the

planet, but in turn will also realize the Light will heal them as well. In

letting go of the old way of imbalance, they help to return the world to

stability, peace, and balance.

>  

> This is our purpose. This is our mission. This is why we have been run through

the grinder. Now that you have an idea of the Big Picture, you can begin to see

a way to make it happen. It is a change of mind, a change of heart, and an

opening to our greater potential as human beings. It can be done without the

weapons, terror, death, and suffering of the Darkness. It is happening now, and

you are part of it.
