Im indigo and ive known it for 2 years now. While i dont care about labels (indigos are pretty rebellious and hate labels in general), being able to identify why we feel different, with a common word, allows us to find web sites and other places where we can meet with people sharing the same difficulties we have/had to deal with, where we can help each other.
As an example, im an empath. For all my life i was struggling in public, especially when there were crowds around me (Xmass shopping, large parties, big malls, big expositions, etc). Being in such places would make me feel aggressive and give me a headache in my forehead. Never knew it was because i was empath till i started reading about indigos and started posting on an indigo msg board. The problem (headache and aggressivity) i described here is quite common amongst empaths, we unintentionally soak in the emotions of the people around us and it creates confusion and quite an overload.... imagine having all these different kinds of conflicting emotions into yourself all at once.
Talking about it allowed me to understand what was happening, and other people who had overcame it helped me into dealing with it with meditation techniques. Im now doing much better in public, and i stopped avoiding crowds.
So anyways i see nothing wrong with calling myself an indigo. Its not like im walking in the street with an indigo label on my forehead (unless you can read auras that is)
There was also someone who mentioned being 29 years old, saying he was too old to be an indigo. Well what ive got to say about that is there were indigos on the earth since forever, but they used to be very few and far between, the low vibrations of the earth just couldnt support many of them at once. Its only in the mid 80's that they started coming in masses, as the frequencies on earth started rising up, and crystal children followed after. But there have been indigos coming in from the 60's gradually increasing in numbers (but keep in mind you might find older indigos than that still).
We all have a reason why we came to the earth at this time. Some of us just have stronger memories / intuitions about it than others, thats all. That doesnt make us better than anyone, unless you think that being in a depression at the age of 3 and being suicidal at the age of 5 is being better than you. We are all struggling in our own ways. But being able to talk with people who understand our problems and who help us overcome them is pretty nice. This is why its nice to have slapped a word on it, IMO.
So anyways if you are against like minded people helping each other out, you should just zip it, or go make your own thread and duke it out there. This thread here is about helping people, like it or not...
