You’ve heard the term before, and you feel like it could describe you better than anything else — an Indigo child.
But what exactly is an Indigo child, and what are the signs that you’re an Indigo child?
Most importantly, what is your Indigo child mission?
If you’re dying to find the answers to all these questions, this comprehensive guide will tell you everything you need to know.
What is an Indigo child starseed?
Put simply, Indigos are a type of starseeds – advanced spiritual beings that originate in other planets and realms. They are reincarnated souls who were sent to Earth for a particular purpose.
Indigos are a little different in the sense that they’re not a traditional “starseed” — rather, they’re called “Indigo children”. As such, they do not necessarily come from any one particular star system.
Rather, Indigo children are identified by 2 things:
- born in the 1960s-1980s
- with an indigo aura
Of course, each Indigo child is different and unique in its own way. But they share many commonalities:
- Freethinkers
- Ability to see the truth clearly
- Old souls
- Spiritually gifted
- Highly intuitive
What is an Indigo starseed’s mission?
Indigo children have a crucial role on Earth, as they expose truth and deception.
It seems they’ve come at just the right time, when the world seems to be a hotpot of misinformation, “fake news” and doctored pictures and videos.
So it makes perfect sense that this would be an Indigo starseed’s mission.
Let’s break it down to see what it means more precisely.
Indigo child personal mission
Have you ever heard the phrase, “start from yourself”?
This holds especially true when it comes to starseed missions.
Every starseed has a personal mission that they must first fulfill towards themselves. It’s impossible to make generalizations or even guesses as to what this could be — as it is completely unique to your soul and story.
To find out your personal starseed mission, you’ll need to find the answer to questions like these:
- What is your soul telling you that you need?
- What is keeping you from reaching your full potential?
- What do you need to do before you can move on with all other areas of your life?
Once you fulfill this mission, you’ll be able to unlock the full extent of your abilities. Then you can move on to helping others and leaving your divine mark on the world at large.
Indigo child mission toward individuals
On an individual scale, the mission of Indigo children is to help people see the light and recognize deception.
Now more than ever, society is teeming with illusions, falsehoods, and half-truths. Indigo children have a special talent for being able to see through all of this.
Others might mistake them to be inquisitive, stubborn, or even obnoxious. But in reality, Indigo children have a very precious gift: they can’t help but see through facades and expose them. They tell things like they are and they are always compelled to tell the truth.
As such, they are in a prime position to help others discern what’s real from what’s fake. By fulfilling this mission, they are helping
Indigo child mission on a broader scale
On a more global scale, Indigo children help create a world of honesty and harmony.
By stripping people of their illusions and uncovering lies, Indigo children help people awaken to the truth. When you clear the world of deception (or a large part of it), humanity starts to break free from fear, manipulation, and greed.
Instead, pure values like love, peace and abundance start to shine through.
This is ultimately the life mission and purpose of Indigo children on Earth.
Finding your true mission as an Indigo child
Finding your Indigo starseed mission can be the most exciting thing you do in your life — except, of course, fulfilling it!
But let’s not get ahead of ourselves.
Let’s be honest, it can be very difficult to figure out what we’re meant to do in this lifetime even as a regular human, let alone an advanced spiritual being!
You might find yourself straying from your path, trying out different things, and making some costly mistakes before you stumble on the truth. And even when you do find your mission, figuring out how to fulfill it is even harder.
But here’s the good news:
There’s a shortcut to all that. You can skip all the wasted time and energy and figure out exactly what your Indigo child mission is, so you can get right to accomplishing it.
How? By speaking to a gifted advisor.
Now, I know what you might be thinking. I used to be extremely skeptical of psychics and their knowledge of starseeds myself. But I was so tired of struggling with trying to figure things out on my own, that when a friend suggested I talk to someone at Psychic Source, I decided to go for it.
And it was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.
The advisor I spoke to was kind, understanding, and genuinely helpful.
Now, I fully understand my mission as a starseed, and I can direct all my energy towards fulfilling it rather than spending years on the wrong path.

Am I an Indigo child? 26 powerful signs that say you are
There are many signs that you may be an Indigo child.
We will look at each of these in more detail in the next section.
To make it easier for you to identify the signs, we’ll divide them up into categories, starting with the overall personality.
Indigo Starseed personality traits
If you want to know if you’re an Indigo starseed, the first thing to look at is if you tick the boxes for typical Indigo characteristics.
These are the traits Indigo starseeds tend to share in common:
- Strong-willed
- Headstrong
- Creative
- Independent
- Proud
- Empathetic
- Compassionate
- A natural leader
- Idealistic
- Freethinker
Of course, we are all different and no two starseeds will be alike. So you might have more qualities than are mentioned here.
But these are the biggest personality hints that can tell you you’re an Indigo starseed. Let’s have a look at them in more detail.
1) You are strong-willed and headstrong
An Indigo starseed has a very telling personality trait: they are very strong-willed.
Some might have a few other words for it — such as stubborn or inflexible. And the truth is, sometimes you may annoy others or create some conflict with this quality of yours.
But it is a large part of who you are and at the end of the day, it is an incredible gift. It is what helps you tell apart honesty from lies and stick to what you know to be true. You don’t let your opinions and values sway with the wind.
Everyone who knows you can say that you stand on firm ground and you have solid reasons for believing in what you do.
2) You’re not afraid to be non-conformist
A lot of people have a hard time being different.
They may feel like they have to be just like everyone else and if they aren’t, then they feel ashamed of themselves.
But an Indigo starseed is the exact opposite. They know that the path to their success is not the one everyone else has chosen. And they are not afraid to make it their own.
This might take you down a non-conformist path, which can be both difficult and lonely. But the most important thing is that you are true to yourself, and others can see that in you too.
You don’t need anyone’s permission to be who you are. You want to follow your heart, as a true starseed should do, and never let anyone tell you how you should live and think.
3) You’re fiercely independent
Indigo children are fiercely independent.
They can often be stubborn and unwilling to follow the crowd. They want to do things their way, and they often push through their fears to achieve what they want.
But this is part of what makes them so unique and special. They know that if they follow the crowd, they’ll never find out who they truly are or where their talents lie.
Indigo children are not afraid of standing out from the crowd, either. They know that it’s what sets them apart from everyone else and makes them feel good about themselves.
4) You take pride in yourself
It’s probably clear by now that Indigo children are both special and extraordinary.
With so many gifts, talents, and natural abilities, it’s hard for Indigo children not to notice that they are quite unique. They aren’t afraid of showing off their abilities or telling others how great they are.
And they have good reason to! After all, Indigo children have a crucial role to play on Earth.
However, you will inevitably make some mistakes and have things you’ll need to work on — so don’t let pride get too much in your head.
Most others around you may feel very inadequate in comparison. Showing them that you’re kind and modest is one of the best ways to lift them up and fulfill your mission of elevating humanity.
5) You’re empathetic and compassionate
As Indigo children are sharp and observant, they are able to see through the fake smiles and walls that people put up. They can dig deep to sense people’s true emotions.
This makes them incredibly empathetic and compassionate. They care a lot about the feelings of others and try to help them out whenever they can.
This extends to our planet as well. Even though Indigo children’s souls originate in other star systems, these starseeds feel great compassion towards Earth and Mother Nature.
They are often the first to advocate for greener practices and do their best to be sustainable.
6) You’re a born leader
Take a being who is strong-willed, creative, and independent, and what have you got?
That’s right — a born leader.
Indigo children have a natural ability to lead others and make them feel comfortable. They are charismatic and magnetic — so much so that they often get people to follow them.
They are also good at persuading others to follow their ideas and do what they want. This makes them extremely valuable in the business world, especially when they are motivated by their love of nature and the planet.
7) You’re idealistic and progressive
Indigo children are naturally idealistic and progressive. You don’t like to be limited by the status quo, which is why you may feel the urge to challenge the system.
You want to make a difference, so you are always looking for ways to improve you lives and those around you.
You see no point in doing something just cause it’s the way it’s always been done if you see it could be done better — that’s why Indigo children often call for change and revolutions.
However, being idealistic might also mean being impatient at times. So you should still be careful not to ignore reason and logic when making important decisions.
Am I an Indigo child? How to know for sure
The signs above and below will give you a good idea if you are an Indigo child.
But with something as important as this, you want to be able to know without a shadow of a doubt.
And the best way to know for sure is to speak with a gifted advisor at Psychic Source.
I mentioned them earlier. They have helped me out greatly in the past and answered all the questions I was having: Am I really a starseed? What type of starseed am I? What is my starseed mission in this lifetime?
Having these answers made my spiritual journey a thousand times easier, and I’m confident it will do the same to you.

9 more major signs you are an Indigo child
We’ve already seen several telltale signs that you could be an Indigo child.
But the list is nowhere near complete! Indigo children are wonderfully complex, and there are many more traits that you can use to identify yourself as one.
8) A healthy lifestyle is important to you
Being an Indigo child also means being an advocate for healthy living.
As you seek truth, you can see past the lies that companies tell just to sell their products and make profit. You look for what’s truly important: nutrition, quality, and health.
You may not have the perfect healthy lifestyle — in today’s world, almost noone does! But you’ve already realized how important it is and you’ve taken steps to start prioritizing it.
For example, you may have:
- given up an unhealthy habit
- started exercising regularly
- improved your sleep quality
- made a habit of drinking enough water
- started paying attention to the food you eat
- fixed your posture as you sit
- adopted deep breathing techniques
You won’t be able to transform your whole life overnight, and that’s okay! Just keep at whatever you’ve been doing and know that your body and soul will thank you for it down the line.
9) You tend to get bored easily
Do you start projects with great enthusiasm which quickly fades? Do you easily zone out in a boring class or meeting? Do you often pick up your phone for a pleasant distraction?
These are all signs of being an Indigo starseed.
In broader terms, you tend to get bored relatively quickly. This doesn’t mean that nothing interests you, though. On the contrary! You see so many interesting things around you that you don’t know where to put your attention first.
The key is finding something that you’re truly passionate about. This will keep you motivated and your interest high so that you can stay focused and see it through to the end.
10) You’re committed to seeking the truth
Indigo children can have extremely varied interests. But there’s one thing every single Indigo child is drawn to — the truth, in any shape or form.
You might express this in a particular way:
- You’re extremely good at research and fact-check things you see and post on social media.
- You pursued a career where justice or attention to detail is important
- You like to get to the bottom of conflicts between friends and set the record straight.
You’ll also feel very curious about your past life and where you come from.
But these are questions it can be really hard to find the answer to.
So if you’re dying to know the truth about your history and background, the best way to find out for sure is by speaking to an advisor at Psychic Source.
I mentioned them earlier. They have helped me out in the past and I’ve always found them honest and compassionate in their readings.
So instead of trying to find the truth all on your own, speak to an advisor who’ll give you the answers you’re looking for. And the best part is you’ll immediately know that they’re right.

11) You’re susceptible to addictions
Here’s a sign that is very important to recognize — because being aware of it can help you protect yourself from potential harm.
Indigo children can be prone to addictions.
Most of the time, this is just something mild and harmless, like loving ice cream or being obsessed with a certain music genre.
But at times, it can also turn into something more problematic that puts your health in jeopardy. If this is the case, remember that there’s nothing to be ashamed of. An addiction doesn’t define who you are, and awareness is the first step to breaking free from its shackles.
Practice healthy balance and moderation in all areas of your life and you’ll prevent any potentially harmful addictions from developing. Always make sure you can stay flexible in your habits and put your health first.
And if you’re at the point where you need some extra help, don’t hesitate to get in touch with a licensed professional who can help.
12) You fluctuate between high and low self-esteem
Does this seem familiar to you?
One moment, you feel like you’re on top of the world. You feel like you can achieve anything you set your mind to and nothing and no one can bring you down.
But other times, all these high hopes seem to have vanished. You second guess practically every decision you make, and start to doubt even things you felt rock solid about before.
These kind of fluctuations in self-esteem are extremely typical of Indigo children.
If you have particular difficulty struggling with this, keeping a journal may help you to stay grounded:
- Track your progress for your goals and you can consult it whenever you start to doubt yourself.
- Write down your thoughts and come back to them later with a fresh mind. You can then analyze if there is any truth to them, or remind yourself of how you felt in the past.
13) You’re skeptical and question the world around you
As Indigo children always seek to know the truth, it’s natural that they are skeptical of everything they hear.
You never take anything at face value and always ask follow-up questions to find out more. If you hear something, you don’t just take the person’s word for it. Instead, you dig deeper until you get to the source.
And you don’t just accept something “because everyone else does”. You aren’t afraid to question even authority figures and practices that have been around for decades.
Some people may not understand this, and feel annoyed that you don’t just accept whatever they tell you.
But at the end of the day, this is an enormous benefit for everyone. If you believe something, people know they can trust that you have solid reasons for that belief.
14) You are an “old soul”
Have you ever been told you’re an “old soul”?
That’s just one more indication that you’re an Indigo child.
This has nothing to do with your physical age in your current body. Rather, it means that your understanding of the world is a little more mature as your soul has been around for many lifetimes.
But as an Indigo child, you’re committed to knowing the truth — so you’re probably really curious to know more about your background and history.
When I was going through my own struggle with my starseed identity, I reached out to Psychic Source.
Like I said earlier, the gifted spiritual advisor there really helped me see things in a whole new way.
From giving you clarity on the situation to supporting you as you make life-changing decisions, these advisors will empower you to make decisions with confidence.

15) You have struggled with depression
According to WHO, 3.8% of the entire world population struggles with depression.
If we narrow this down to just Indigo children, this percentage skyrockets.
Unfortunately, Indigo children are particularly prone to experiencing depression throughout their lives.
If this is something you identify with, remember that you are not alone. Most other Indigo children can relate to exactly how you’re feeling, and there’s an entire support network out there that would love to help you.
Make sure you’re taking steps to take care of yourself and invest in your own happiness:
- Maintain a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise and a nutritious diet
- Invest in building relationships with people you care about
- Find a hobby that makes you happy that can do when you have time and energy
- Find a way to give back to the community — science found this is one of the keys to making people happy
If you’re suffering from severe depression, don’t wait and get help from a licensed therapist.
16) You feel injustice very deeply
As an Indigo child, you have a strong sense of right and wrong.
This is a great thing, but it also means that you’re very sensitive to injustice in the world — and this can lead to anger when things aren’t going your way.
On one hand, this means you’re passionate about doing things right and you’re not willing to just sit by and watch bad things happen.
But on the other hand, your temper may sometimes get out of hand and prevent you from taking constructive action.
The best way to deal with this is by finding some healthy ways to channel that anger. Here are some ideas:
- writing about it in a journal
- talking about it with someone who will listen without judging you
- going for a run or hitting the gym
This will help release some of your negative energy so that it doesn’t build up inside you, and you can instead focus on the solution.
What is an Indigo child like in relationships?
Indigo starseeds tend to act in particular ways and show certain traits in their relationships.
So this too is a very useful tip to figuring out if you are an Indigo child.
Here are 5 telling signs to look out for.
17) You value real friendships
Indigo children are very selective of the people they choose to surround themselves with. They know that their energy is very powerful, and they don’t want just anyone around them.
They prefer to be in the company of only those that love and appreciate them for who they are. While this may seem very exclusive, it’s actually a good thing for everyone.
It leads to more meaningful connections with people who have positive intentions. You also don’t waste people’s time if you see that the relationship won’t bring either of you much value.
You end up with a support group and circle of friends that you can truly depend on and that looks out for you.
18) You tend to isolate yourself
Indigo children often have moments when they retreat into their own bubble.
You may have noticed this about yourself — you have days when you don’t feel like seeing or talking to anyone. You don’t have issues going somewhere alone and just spending time with yourself.
This may make you seem a bit like a loner sometimes. But the truth is, there’s nothing wrong with that! You’re not embarrassed about spending some time alone and you feel comfortable with who you are.
And that also lets you truly enjoy your time spent with others too — because you’re not trying to distract yourself from who you are, but rather share your true self with others who can appreciate it.
So it’s perfectly fine to isolate yourself sometimes. Just make sure you don’t overdo it and still keep in touch with people who you care about.
19) You put your all into relationships you care about
Indigo children have intense relationships — both with friends and with romantic partners.
They’re not afraid to be vulnerable, and they’re not afraid to put in the work it takes to make a relationship work.
It’s not uncommon for them to feel like they’ve truly found their soulmate, or the person they want to spend the rest of their life with. When this happens, they’ll pour everything into making that relationship work — and if it doesn’t work out in the end, they’ll be heartbroken.
This is good news too! It means you know how to love deeply and fully, so you can give yourself completely once you find someone who deserves your love like that.
But understandably, you want to avoid wasting enormous time and effort in the wrong relationship.
If only there was a way you could know if someone is really your soulmate…
Well, I’ve just stumbled upon a way to do this… a professional psychic artist who can draw a sketch of what your soulmate looks like.
Even though I wasn’t sure at first, my friend convinced me to try it out a few weeks ago.
Now I know exactly what my soulmate looks like. The crazy thing is I’ve known them for years.
If you’re ready to find out what your soulmate looks like, get your own sketch drawn here.
20) You have high expectations of yourself and others
Indigo children have a very high sense of self-worth. They know that they’re capable of great things and that they deserve the best.
Because of this, they set high standards for themselves and expect other people to be as capable as well. If someone is not living up to their potential, or if someone is asking for help but not willing to do what it takes to get there, you’ll feel disappointed.
Deep down, you think like this because you want the best for everyone and you want to help them bring out their best selves.
But remember that not everyone has as much talent and capability as you — or they may need more time before they can step into their power.
So while it’s good not to settle, and strive for the absolute best, remember that patience and acceptance are also a key part of helping both yourself and others reach for the top.
21) You bond easily with non-human living things
Indigo children often have very strong connections with animals and plants. They’re not scared of getting in touch with nature, and they feel at peace when they’re around it.
This is because they have a deep understanding of life and the world around them, and they know that all living things are connected.
This makes them feel more connected to nature as well. They love spending time outdoors, and if you ask them why, they’ll tell you it’s because of the feeling of oneness with everything else.
Indigo child interests and talents
An Indigo child also has a unique set of interests and talents.
You have particular skills that make you stand out, and you’re drawn to certain things as a result of your background and nature.
Here are the biggest signs of an Indigo child based on interests and natural gifts.
22) You’re incredibly creative
You’ve heard about thinking outside the box. Well, Indigo children take this to a whole other level.
You have the ability to see things from a different angle, which can often lead you to new ideas and experiences. You have a strong imagination and can come up with amazing plans without too much effort.
Indigo children are also often more talented in certain areas, so you likely have a particular gift that sets you apart. You may have noticed it already — whether it’s being a pro at snapping photos, organizing a home, or coming up with stories to entertain your baby cousin.
But it might even be something you haven’t even discovered yet!
Remember, Indigo children are very complex beings. You have a nearly endless reservoir of talent and ability, and you’ve barely even scratched the surface.
23) You have a deep desire to change the world
Many Indigo children feel like they have a deep responsibility to make positive and meaningful changes in the world.
They’ll make a point of fighting for causes that are important to them, and they also may have a strong desire to help others who are less fortunate than themselves.
There are actually hundreds — even thousands — of ways to fulfil this desire. For example, you could:
- Help clean up the environment
- Volunteer in your local community
- Participate in an international humanitarian project
- Be an activist for a cause you care about
- Create educational content to enlighten others
Whatever you choose, it will be personal to you and your starseed mission. Your entire soul will sing “Yes!” when you’ve found it.
Working on this passion is key to helping create a world where everyone can live in peace and harmony.
24) You have great intuition and psychic talents
Indigo children are blessed with a razor-sharp intuition and powerful psychic gifts.
For example:
- Clairvoyance (see things that are happening far away)
- Dream telepathy (communicating with someone through dreams)
- Astral projection (projecting your consciousness outside your physical body)
- Psychometry (getting information about a person/thing through touch)
- Psychic premonitions (knowing about future events)
These abilities may only become unlocked after starseed awakening, or during a certain part of your starseed journey. So if you think you don’t have any psychic talents, you probably just haven’t discovered them yet.
You can wait and eventually stumble upon them, figuring things out through experience and trial and error.
…Or, you can skip all that frustration and hassle and speak to a gifted advisor at Psychic Source.
I mentioned them earlier. They have helped me out with countless issues along my starseed journey. And they helped me uncover an incredible psychic talent that I never would have even dreamed of having.
Thanks to getting their help, I am now in full control of my abilities and can use them to move forward in my starseed mission.
You can do the same too — just speak to an advisor who’ll give you the answers you’re looking for. It costs much less than you might think.

25) You’re highly perceptive and intelligent
Indigo children are highly intelligent and very perceptive.
They notice even the tiniest details that escape other people’s awareness. And they can also make connections between different facts and concepts that most others miss.
As a result, they have exceptionally great insights and are considered incredibly intelligent.
These talents often make Indigo children end up in jobs where being perceptive and analytical is a great asset. For example:
- IT
- Counselling
- Research
26) You value spirituality over religion
Indigo children are naturally very spiritual.
They have an interest in the “big questions” of life, and they may even have strong psychic abilities.
However, that doesn’t mean they’re necessarily religious.
Indigo children tend to place more importance on the “message” rather than the “messenger” — and they form their own complex set of beliefs that don’t always fit perfectly within the confines of an existing religion.
This is because they’ve found their own truth through their own experiences and research.
What does an Indigo child look like?
If you’re wondering if you’re an Indigo child, one question that will likely come up is if your appearance fits. What does an Indigo child look like?
There is no simple answer to this question. Indigo children often share these physical characteristics:
- Large, round or almond-shaped eyes that seem to suck you in
- Slightly larger heads
However, the body’s looks have nothing to do with what’s inside the soul. An Indigo child could have incarnated into any human body on Earth.
So even if you’re tall, short, thin, muscular, dark or light-skinned, it doesn’t define or change who you are.
Want a surefire way to know if you’re an Indigo child?
This article gives you a lot of insight into Indigo children and the signs that you could be one.
But if there’s a part of you that still wants to know more, I recommend speaking to a genuine advisor.
And there’s one company that I always end up recommending, Psychic Source. Not only did they blow me away with their accurate reading, but they brought me answers I’d never been expecting.
So if you’re tired of wondering if you’re an Indigo child, get in touch with a gifted advisor and take your future into your own hands. I did, and I’ve never looked back since.

If you want specific advice on your situation, it can be very helpful to speak to someone with special intuition.
I know this from personal experience…
A few months ago, I reached out to Psychic Source when I was going through a tough patch in my relationship. After being lost in my thoughts for so long, they gave me a unique insight into what my future holds, and the confidence to make the right decisions when it comes to love.
If you haven’t heard of Psychic Source before, it’s a site where gifted advisors help people through complicated and difficult life situations.
