Indigo Child

This blog relatres to the new song by Spriggan Mist but before I talk about that what are Indigo children here is an exerpt from The New Kids Have Arrived
By Lee Carroll and Jan Tober

What is an Indigo Child? And why do we call them Indigo? First, the definition: an Indigo Child is one who displays a new and unusual set of psychological attributes and shows a pattern of behavior generally undocumented before. This pattern has common unique factors that suggest that those who interact with them (parents, in particular) change their treatment and upbringing of them in order to achieve balance. To ignore these new patterns is to potentially create imbalance and frustration in the mind of this precious new life. The subject of this chapter is to identify, qualify, and validate the attributes of an Indigo Child.

There seem to be several kinds of Indigos, and we will describe them later in this chapter, but in the following list we can give you some of the most common behavioral patterns. Do these fit anyone you know?

Here are ten of the most common traits of Indigo Children:

1. They come into the world with a feeling of royalty (and often act like it).
2. They have a feeling of "deserving to be here," and are surprised when
others don't share that.
3. Self-worth is not a big issue. They often tell the parents "who they are."
4. They have difficulty with absolute authority (authority without
explanation or choice).
5. They simply will not do certain things; for example, waiting in line is
difficult for them.
6. They get frustrated with systems that are ritual-oriented and don't
require creative thought.
7. They often see better ways of doing things, both at home and in school,
which makes them seem like "system busters" (nonconforming to any system).
8. They seem antisocial unless they are with their own kind. If there are no
others of like consciousness around them, they often turn inward,
feeling like no other human understands them. School is often extremely
difficult for them socially.
9. They will not respond to "guilt" discipline ("Wait till your father gets
home and finds out what you did").
10. They are not shy in letting you know what they need.

So when wifey penned the song lyrics and tune about a year ago we kind of knew who this was about . Gurning boy came on the scene and this is the resulting song ( you can hear it by going onto the new website Sprigganmist.com or onto our myspace

This song has been beautifully produced and mixed by the Gurning boy and gives a little insight to Spriggan Mist's forth coming CD sometime next year. We will also be playing this live for the first time at Mission for Rwanda at Sandhurst Secondary School on 25/11/2009.

this is the first time the new band has recorded live as a whole ..enjoy
