CHILDREN ARE NATURALLY INTUITIVE
Are children more psychic than adults?
Children have a heightened sense of intuition as part of their survival mechanism to protect them because they are so vulnerable in the world. However, children learn to disconnect from their intuition the moment they are told to sleep when they are not tired, to eat when they are not hungry, or to hug or speak to someone that they are uncomfortable with. This begins to erode self-trust and the relationship that the child has with his or her own inner guidance, particularly when children are told that they are not seeing what they say they are seeing, or that they are not hearing what they say they are hearing.
Children are more in touch with different frequencies of energy and different planes of experience as their belief system has not been limited. The more children are allowed and encouraged to trust themselves, the stronger their intuitive guidance system will be, and the more they will be saved the challenge of learning to reopen the channels of intuitive connection and self-trust, which are keys to happiness in life.
We all have intuition available to us as part of our inner guidance system. Most adults have been indoctrinated into limiting beliefs that erode their natural connection with their own Higher Self and inner knowing. Most adults have been taught not to believe in anything that they can't actually see or prove is real; this indoctrination process often originates from their various faiths, yet this is the very definition of faith itself! Trust is the key to using intuition, which can be developed and strengthened where there is a desire to do so. I have taught many adults to access and develop their own intuition in my one-day intuition class.
Of course, the best thing is to support children to stay open to their intuition and inner guidance by listening to them and learning from them (children come here to teach us and heal us, but we often forget this). Ask your children questions and let yourself be amazed at the infinite awareness that they have access to. A child who is supported and encouraged to develop these intuitive gifts can do miraculous things for this world.
These children are our future, and many children who are coming to Earth at this time are very gifted and very special, and they come with a purpose to help heal humanity and this planet. We need to support them to carry out their mission by supporting and encouraging them to be who they really are - great masterful beings in small bodies!
I have a child who is highly sensitive. What can I do about it?
Parapsychology refers to psychics as “Psi-Sensitives”; sensitivity is an important part of psychic ability as intuition often communicates through our feelings. This is why it is so important that we all learn to trust what we feel, and not deny or ignore our feelings, or even worse, mask them with drugs or other substances. Many of the drugs that are used to control human emotions create a numbness that hinders the intuitive connection, and deadens creativity, joy and passion, especially in children.
When it comes to your child being highly sensitive, this is known as empathy, and must be supported with love, honesty and compassion. A child who is sensitive will be picking up on everyone else’s feelings – actually feeling what other people are feeling. There is nothing wrong with this, except that this child may be very emotional or have "mood swings", and can be prone to weight gain as a form of protection to insulate him/her from other people's feelings, thoughts, and judgments.
This sensitivity is a gift, and should be treated as such. It can be somewhat uncomfortable at times for everyone, particularly for the empathic person or empathic child who walks into a room and suddenly feels angry or sad when he/she was feeling fine a moment ago. An empath can feel the emotional energy in that room, either from the people in the room, or sometimes from the objects in the room, or even in the room itself (objects and places absorb emotional energy - psychometry is the ability to read this energy and is often employed by psychic detectives).
A sensitive child will often be picking up on your feelings, perhaps even before you are aware of how you are feeling. That child may come to you and say, "What's wrong?". It can become very confusing when that child is then told that “there is nothing wrong” when there is. This will instill self-doubt for the child to be told that what he/she is feeling is wrong. You must be honest and direct with such a child, and thank him/her for caring and giving you the message, and reassure him/her that there is no need to be concerned.
A sensitive child is one who cares very deeply and will want everyone to feel good, which makes him/her feel good. This child will want to do things that will make you happy, or make you feel better. Sensitive children often have great healing ability that comes from their pure love and compassion. They have come with a purpose that involves healing, caring, compassion and sharing love, and this is what they want to do in order to feel useful. They want to help you and give to you, which gives them a great deal of joy and peace, so next time you feel pain of any kind - physical, emotional, spiritual, mental - ask for their help. Ask your child to kiss it better, or to rub your headache or touch your heart, and allow yourself to receive their love and healing with gratitude and appreciation. Tell your child that you feel better, and that he/she really helped you, and you will see your child swell with pride, with confidence, and with empowerment.
Remember that intuitive abilities are there to keep us safe, first and foremost. Helping your children to trust themselves and their intuition will help protect your child in the world. Tell your child to imagine a thick bubble of white light around him or her as a boundary of protection that also insulates them from all that they don’t need to know or feel. Help your child to be aware of his/her own feelings, so that they will be able to tell when what they are feeling actually belongs to someone else. They can envision a shower of white light cleansing them of all that is not theirs, and washing it away with love. Most importantly, tell your child that it is perfectly okay to be so sensitive, and that it is a gift that makes him/her very special.
My child keeps talking to me about an imaginary friend, Is this normal?
Yes, that is very common. Children are naturally closer to God and can perceive things on other dimensions of reality. Children often speak of what their parents call their “imaginary friend” that they can see and hear, this is usually one of the child’s guides or angels. Children can also perceive loved ones who have passed over to the Other Side.
Children are trained out of these natural abilities when they are told that what they are seeing or hearing isn’t real, and especially when they are told that what they are feeling isn’t right, when it is. Intuitive abilities are just as natural and inherent in everyone as artistic or athletic abilities are. The more they are recognized and developed, the stronger they become. Conversely, the more they are ignored, suppressed or denied, like with any muscle, the weaker they become.
Many people think that their child simply has an overactive imagination. Imagination is a strong part of intuition, because the Universe often communicates in symbols or images. Intuition and imagination are the mothers of invention. Most scientific discoveries and technological innovations cannot be arrived at by linear thinking alone - they are inspired by flashes of intuitive brilliance that allows for a quantum leap in creation. Many of the most successful people in the world have said that they regularly use their intuition.
An imaginary friend can be a healthy companion - a guide, protector and teacher for you child. You can ask your child questions, such as who are they talking to and where are they getting their information from. You can tell your child to surround him/herself with angels of Love and Light, and let them be his/her friends.
My child seems to know things, and it scares me. What should I do?
First, you should listen. Children come here to teach us, and your child has access to very powerful information. It is only scary to you because it seems to be coming from the unknown, but the more comfortable and encouraging you become with your child’s gift, the stronger and more natural it will be. It is always a good idea to tell your child to surround him/herself in white light for protection, and even to imagine a great beam of white light above their head that connects them to the Great Central Sun, the Source of all Love and Light, all Wisdom and Knowledge, and All That Is. In this way they can be fully protected and connected to the highest source.
Support your child to see, hear and feel what he/she is perceiving, and encourage your child to tell you what they are receiving. You will be introduced to a fascinating world, one which you probably had access to in your own childhood, but were discouraged from expressing, so you closed that door. It is never too late to open that line of communication again, all you need to do is listen and trust. Your child can help you to open this doorway again. This is probably one of the reasons your child came to you!
Special Feature - new Spiritual Movie:
"INDIGO"
Many of the children being born today and since the 1990's are very special, and are being called "Indigo Children" because of the color of their aura. Many of these children have DNA that allows them to be immune to diseases, such as AIDS, even when they are born to a mother who has AIDS. The most important thing about these children is that they are highly psychic and very sensitive. They have come here to help humanity to heal, and to help in the transformation of the Earth itself. They need to be supported and encouraged with love, compassion and understanding.
There is a new film called "Indigo" which introduces us to the awareness of Indigo Children in a new and entertaining way (produced by Stephen Simon, who also produced the film "What Dreams May Come" with Robin Williams, and written by James Twyman, author of Emissary of Light). "Indigo" stars Neale Donald Walsch, author of Conversations With God, who proves that he is also an excellent actor. He plays the Grandfather of Grace, a young girl with extraordinary psychic abilities, which include a telepathic connection with other Indigo Children all over the world. This is a fictionalized story that will appeal to both adults and children in mainstream audiences everywhere. You can encourage your local theatres to show this film, especially at independent theatres or Universities, which will help spread the word about these amazing children. The movie will soon be released on DVD and can be ordered at www.indigothemovie.com.
I understand that the producers are seeking funds for a second film directed at the children themselves to help them understand their place and their role in this world. This film is currently titled "A Child Called Indigo", and more information is available at www.indigothemovie.com.
