Since 2004, a new scepter is being raised in the name of mysticism as parents and some undiscerning churchgoer’s flock to the altar of what some have called “child worship.” A mutating facet of the New Age is heralded by induction of the “Indigo Child.” Psychic and synesthesiac (see musical notes as color) Nancy Ann Tappe coined the new term. She classifies people’s personalities according to the hue of their auras. She claims to identify gifted children as having an indigo colored aura that signifies their mystical grandiosity.
Parents by the thousands have embraced this new thought and now label their children as Indigo Children verses having a neuro-biological condition requiring medication. One can understand why many parents would not want their child to be labeled as ADD or ADHD. The label implies imperfection. Some may even take it to mean the child is “damaged.” This new position sounds positive and stimulates pride in one’s offspring instead of coping with a medical problem.
Many materials are being written to advance this New Age teaching. “The Indigo Children” is a book written by Lee Carroll, a channeler for an entity he calls ‘Kryon.’ One thesis that Kryon presented of the Indigo Children is that many children diagnosed as having attention deficit disorder or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder represent “a new kind of evolution of humanity.” The entity stated, “These children don’t require drugs like Ritalin, but special care and training.” Medical liability issues are yet to be seen from a comment like that.
One cannot begin to touch upon the curse associated with channeling familiar spirits. That is a topic all in itself, hopefully an issue that does not warrant discussion. Consulting mediums, soothsayers, channelers, psychics and other workers of iniquity are clearly condemned by God. (Example: I Samuel 28:7; 1 Chr. 10:13; Duet. 18:10-14) In Acts 16:16, we read about a demon-possessed girl who had psychic abilities proclaiming that Paul and his companions spoke truth. Paul was deeply troubled and rebuked the spirit commanding it to depart for there is nothing more repugnant than evil proclaiming truth. Satan from the beginning presented truth mixed with deception to Eve. The New Age is fully empowered with this same position.Click here to read this entire article.
