I don’t exactly remember when I realized that I was different from most of the people in my family. 

Maybe it was because I was the one who was paralyzed for 5 years, or maybe it was because my brother and sister, who were 11 months apart in age, looked like twins and I looked much different. 

Maybe it was because I would get very angry at being lied to, unfairly blamed, or the game playing and manipulation that I experienced with my parents. I always felt like I was born into the wrong family and they were not my people. 

Maybe it was the feeling that other people seemed to get it in life and I just couldn’t. When I read about Indigo and Crystal energies in the late 1990s,  it all began to make sense and I knew that this was my answer. Now it didn’t solve anything at the time, it just gave me an understanding and the knowledge that I was ‘different’ so I needed to do things differently. I could not conform to the status quo, so I needed to be content with creating my own paradigm for my life.

I first remember reading about Indigo and Crystal energies in the late 1990s, but the term Indigo energy was first identified in the mid-1970s by Nancy Tappe, a psychic who could see auras and noticed that children born in the 1960s and 1970s had the color indigo in their auras, which she had never seen before. 

Now I know that the Indigo generations started arriving around the 1950s and they have been around for centuries, but it wasn’t until the 1950s that we started seeing greater numbers of them, maybe because there was a greater acceptance of all things spiritual and intuitive at the time. But after this brief reveal in the 1990s the interest in these energies disappeared and Indigo and Crystals, not liking the spotlight, were rather relieved. 

Their work continued, in the background for the most part, and now they are coming forward again as the need for the Indigo action and truth and the Crystal empathy and light are needed more than ever.

As we go barreling forward with this ascension cycle, and we are really on a roll now, the Indigo and Crystal energies are making a comeback and it is time to bring them back into the open so they can help with the work of dis-integrating the 3D paradigm and ushering in the 5D alignments because Indigo and Crystal energy is at the 5D frequency, that’s why they have such a hard time in life. Surprised to hear that? Well, let’s learn some more about these wonderful energies.
