Dharma: Thanks for your reflections Personally, I don't think the idea of indigo children is meant to impress us or spread a new sense of "success." What if part of their purpose in being here is to simply to provoke new thinking? I mean, why would they come? If each human has the power and abilities to make a positive difference in the evolution of the world through evolving consciousness inside the self, yet each person isn't taking such initiatives, or doesn't know how, a phenomenon like
indigo children might spark reflection and a positive trigger effect. We could make analogies with thoughts of angels, elementals or other influences that may cause people to think differently in terms of possibilities. As for how they relate to the 2012 prophecy, that would depend on your perception and/or scepticism of
indigo potential.
Akashic_Librarian: I like your view. For me, when I think of indigo, my mind wanders to a color range from a deep violet blue to a dark, grayish blue. To make an analogy, if a concept or person evokes a range of positive thoughts and feelings, then it makes sense to reframe "indigo children" as different kinds of positive influences on our lives. After all, you find exactly what you seek, in whatever forms appear most meaningful to you.
