Indigo Adults: Forerunners of the New Civilization [Paperback]

Kabir Jaffe (Author), Ritama Davidson (Contributor)

Book Description

Publication Date: August 30, 2005

A new type of person is coming into incarnation right now, almost a ‘next step’ as humanity progresses. These people are visionary and creative, progressive and independent. They carry new ways of thinking and feeling that hold great promise for the future.

You may be familiar with the concept of ‘Indigo children,’ and never realized that there are also Indigo adults. Might you be one of them? Perhaps you have wondered why you’ve often felt different?

·

Frustrated and dissatisfied with the ‘normal’ world

·

Not easily fitting in the system, and often feeling alone, separate, or not understood

·

A pressing need to contribute to creating a better world

·

Unusual sensitivities

·

A deep feeling, thinking, and introspective nature

·

A powerful longing for ‘something more’

Indigo Adults helps you identity if you or your children are Indigos, and can help you understand more clearly your nature and purpose here on Earth.

The authors also put into perspective the bigger picture of the changing of an Age and its effect on our current world events.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great guide for the Indigo Adult, March 7, 2006

I have been doing the Essence Training program for a year now and this book, written by the creators of the ET program is a great help. Did you ever feel like you were different than the rest of the world? Did you feel like you were marching to a different beat, had a different sense of truth, justice, honesty and authenticity? Did you also some times feel so lonely that you thought you were the only one of your kind? You might be an Indigo Adult. There are numerous books about Indigo Children, but this is the first book that deals with Indigo Adults - namely Indigo children that were incarnated decades ago and are not in adulthood.

The book begins with a cosmology of the different eras of planet earth and humanity's evolution. Some of the ideas put forth, while being accepted new age themes, might sound quite out-of-this-world to the rational reader. Even if you don't believe or accept everything put forth, it is still a fascinating and mind-expanding read. The author continues with describing the nature of the Indigo Adult. Many readers will see themselves reflected in the pages of this book. A whole chapter is also dedicated to the Indigo Man and the Indigo Woman. The chapters dealing with the challenges indigos face living and thriving in this world are very helpful for those of us who have felt not at home on this planet.

The book ends with a chapter "The Big Picture". Here the author describes the evolution of the planet earth and the the role it plays in the (very) "big scheme of things".

I usually highlight interesting parts of my books. I keep finding myself going back to this book over and over again. Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars I only wish it would have been longer, December 1, 2006

This review is from: Indigo Adults: Forerunners of the New Civilization (Paperback)

This book is a very intellectually honest, accurate portrayal of indigo adults and the problems and challenges they face. The book will not mean much to a person who is not an indigo adult. The strength of the book is the way that it speaks to indigo adults. Any critic would immediately point out that there doesn't seem to be a basis for the book's arguments, except for roundabout generalized comments about astrology or the authors' personal observation. However, the authors state that the book should be treated as a hypothesis of sorts, so they know how much more work needs to be done. So much of the information is simply unknown, which makes it all the more valuable for the active indigo mind: you have a chance to help develop the knowledge. Start by living your own life in a more open way.

The book was drawn from lectures and the format is actually very approachable. It needed to be edited more (several errors in each chapter). The written lectures are presented and then questions and answers from audience members were listed and discussed.

I don't have any magical powers, but I do strongly identify with what the authors call the indigo soul. I would guess that very few (under 1%) people over 30 are indigos. It's very exciting to realize that (from what I gathered) we have souls on earth from all twelve of the different astrological ages/signs and most people on earth right now have Pisces souls. I always wondered why I was different and how some people appeared to be different. Apparently indigos will become the majority for the next 2000 years, but you never know if you're going to run into another type. Hopefully science will provide more of a basis for some of these issues in the future.

Please e-mail me if you are an indigo adult or would like to discuss this topic with me. econ

This is one of the few books I've been able find that focuses on Indigo adults rather than Indigo children. It is very thought-provoking, and consoling for those Indigo adults who have felt isolated from their everyday peers. The book is taken from a seminar-delivery in Germany, but is well-transposed from a speech into prose; you do not get the sense that you are reading a script until you reach the question-and-answer period at the end of each chapter -- but even those sections are handled well by the editors. It's a very valuable starting point for those who sense they are Indigo adults and would like some direction on where to go and what to do next.
