+ OVERVIEW

"Indigo Child"- It sounds so weird!

You would probably think that this is a child with beautiful indigo-blue eyes or a child who got poisoned?!

In fact, "Indigo Child" is the legend from another planet. The alien came to save the earth in late 70s by plugging-in a new programme into the brains of human babies. This was a programme to bring in a new set of thinking and values of human beings to the earth. When the babies grow up, they become indigo children and they are here to mash down old systems that no longer serve us, make the world into a safer and more secure place.

All Indigo children share some commonalities, they love to dream, highly sensitive and clairvoyant. They love their environment and little animals. They all have large and penetrating eyes and an elegant indigo-blue aura around them. The most important is they have connected human beings to the future.

Today, these children have grown up and lived all over the world.

If you believe in this legend, you may be one of them. You may just not be aware of the great responsibility awaiting for you. (Carrie Chau)
