What are Indigo Adults: Could you be one?

There are many people throughout the world who would say they felt as if they never fit in growing up. This could be for a number of reasons, such as childhood hyperactivity, high or low intelligence, or even a special talent. What if you felt like you were plagued with all of these issues, as well as a deep connection with the universe that you couldn't explain? If this is the case, you may be described as an Indigo adult.

How can you tell the difference between being Indigo or just different?

The distinction between Indigo adults and eccentric people can be hard to identify. Usually being an Indigo is more of a feeling, something that the person just knows. Chances are from a very young age the person will have an intuition that they are different and special. The best way to tell is to look at the traits of an Indigo and compare them to how you have felt your entire life.

[edit] The Unique Traits of an Indigo Adult:

• The Animal/Nature Connection - The best thing to compare an Indigo to is a Druid from a fantasy story. They actually communicate and interact better with animals and nature than they do with people. Indigo adults will want to be closer to nature, often living near a park or wooded area, or even on a lake. They also have strong connections with their pets.

• Creativity and Intelligence - Indigo's are smart, and usually in a very one of a kind way. Rather than knowing all the answers to math or chemistry problems, they tend to have a more philosophical intelligence. They are very intuitive and can solve problems easily. They are also extremely creative, always coming up with ideas and inventions. They may even take to making crafts that derive from nature bringing two things they relate to together in a positive way.

• Lack of Tolerance - Many Indigo adults have a short fuse, and that does not necessarily mean they have short tempers, they just do not deal with poor behavior or unnecessary questions. They will always question authority and wonder why you ask things of them. This doesn't mean they are mean people. They just want everything to be relevant and right the first time around.

• Ahead of the Game - An Indigo adult can easily be diagnosed as hyperactive or even compulsive. In most cases they are not, but because of the behavior they exhibit growing up and as an adult, the diagnoses commonly happen. This is because they are very sensitive to situations, and are usually ahead of themselves. They rarely think before they speak!

As an adult, an Indigo will learn to deal with their way of life and thinking. Once a person realizes they are part of this special and wonderful group of people, they usually seek out other Indigos in order to connect. Because these people are often misunderstood, the Indigos try to stick together. It often takes a long time for an adult to accept this way of life, psychic powers, and strong connection with the earth. This is usually because they have had a hard childhood full of misunderstandings. Once acceptance takes place, however, an Indigo is a shining star in this world, bringing a unique and intuitive outlook to every day life.
