Indigos and Emotional Immaturity

Indigos and Emotional Immaturity

by Jennifer Hoffman


There is a new generation of children in the world and they are known by many names, including Indigo and Crystal Children, Star Children, Light Children. Whatever name they are known by, they are a generation that we have never seen before and they have special needs, gifts and talents. The Crystal and Indigo children represent the new, higher energetic patterns that are arriving to change the Earth's vibrational frequency.This new series provides information on these children and the wonderful gifts they bring to the world.


Despite their quick minds, articulate speech, personal power and insatiable curiosity, Indigo children tend to be emotionally immature. They do not deal well with emotions, are generally unable to manage relationships and avoid emotional confrontation. They wilt in the face of emotional challenges and tend to become angry in these situations. Put an Indigo child in an emotionally charged situation and you have a disaster waiting to happen. Indigos are not without emotion, far from it. It is, in fact, their huge capacity to experience emotion that creates problems for them. They are capable of experiencing every emotion to far greater depths than others and are highly empathic. They just do not know what to do with these emotions or how to process them. So they become angry and resentful when they are emotionally challenged.


We misunderstand Indigos' response to emotions when we judge them by their reactions and do not look past what appears to be an unwillingness to deal with emotions on any level. What we do not see is their internal struggle to understand, process and respond to a combination of the present situation as well as all of the emotional energy that is attached to it. While they do not tell us that they are emotionally overwhelmed, that is exactly what they experience. And since they do not have the tools to process their feelings, they respond with anger and even hostility. It takes a great deal of discernment to see past an Indigo's angry outbursts and realize that they are incapable of voicing their true feelings.


The Indigos may be known as the angry generation, one that responds to challenges with anger. Yet these loving souls hide their emotional immaturity with anger simply out of a desire to protect themselves. By understanding their empathic abilities we can help them to learn to manage the emotions that they are feeling, and they feel many, and guide them through those processes. It is too easy to write them off as troubled, difficult or challenging children, as our school systems tend to do, and try to medicate them out of their issues. Instead, they need a different approach, one that considers their abilities and understands their connection to emotional energy. We must build loving and trusting relationships with them to help them control their anger and learn to gain emotional maturity through understanding their feelings. There are no shortcuts when dealing with Indigos; they require time, attention and commitment. But the rewards are great as once an Indigo learns to deal with their emotional energy, they will become the loving, compassionate souls that they are and astonish us with their ability to love and to express emotion.
