Tribe for Mamas of Indigo/Crystal/Rainbow Children - Page 9

[MommyofPunkiePie]

I do experience a lot of deja vu. As a matter of fact, last night I was chatting with someone I hadn't seen/spoken to in about 14 years, and there were several times over the course of our conversation where I just knew what he was going to say--and he said it. I had a friend in high school, and we were so connected that we would finish each others' sentences about 80% of the time.

I also used to have dreams that would come true the next day. They were mostly about death, but when I woke up the next morning, I would find out that the person in the dream had died.

I am an old soul. I have had better relationships with people who are older (sometimes much older) than I have with people who are my age or younger.

I believe that I have some Indigo traits, but lost them on the way. I am slowly regaining some of those traits, and I think that becoming a single Mother has helped me on this journey. I feel the need to present an enlightened self to my daughter. A lot of the parenting choices I have made so far have been truly from my gut (or maybe from a past life I have lived?). I was all set up to me that *mainstream Mom* but all of that totally goes against what I just *know* is right.

I've had moments throughout my life where I'll think something was gonna happen or somebody was gonna say a certain thing....and it happens. And then I think to myself, "Man, I totally called that!"

Strange.

Strange.

Yeah, me too! The person I have the biggest connection of "finishing scentences with" is Dh. We are always about to say something and then before one can spit it out, the other says it. Somewhere on the early pages of this thread, someone mentioned something like divine partners, or soul partners.....That is definately Dh and I. I have a similar connection with a very good friend I've known since 3.....I think the same of her, definately someone that I've been with for many lifetimes.

Re dreams revealing truth: Dh had a dream several years ago that his grandmother had died, and she came to say goodbye to him. He was woken by the phone ringing and it was his mother. Before she could say anything, he said to her "I know mom, I know grandma has died", and his mother just began to cry.

Re past lives. My boys haven't said anything to me specifically, but, a good friend's daughter was really verbal early on, and told her that she used to have very dark skin, and was a man....and she was in a big fire, and went back to Yaweah. The family wasn't especially spiritual, and had never referred to God as Yaweah before.
I'm a very firm believer in reincarnation/past lives.....and I think it is something very special to have a child remember theirs.

Okay, my take on Deja Vu:
Before we come to earth in this lifetime we all make "soul agreements" or "life charts", planning our souls journey in this particular body/personality. I've read (and believe) that when we experience a deja vu moment, it's the souls recognition of writing that particular moment/experience in our life chart. In essence, Deja Vu is a signal/affirmation/validation that we are following the course that we had originally set for ourselves. Deja Vu, in my opinion is a great thing! When it happens we can feel confident that we're on the path that our soul is meant to be on. That's what I believe and that's what I'm sticking to!

Completely agree on the soul agreements/ life charts. Never thought of Deja Vu as a reminder of our path.....but that seems to make some sense (or at least resonates with me!!)
I experience DejaVu like someone else said, periods where several episodes happen all together (maybe over several days) then nothing for a while.

Two of my best friends are 70 and 83! I've always gotten along better with older people, too. My dh thinks it's weird, as he prefers a group of his peers.

I also have had dreams when people die. Most recently my grandfather passed away last December, and just like Earth Angel's dh, I knew before my dh passed the phone to me that morning what had happened.

Three times just recently I have picked up the phone to call my mom and she's been on the line! The phone will not have rung yet, and I get confused when I pick it up and there's no dial tone. She and I are very close.

About past lives, M used to cry for her real mom, and real family, which was hurtful to me at the time because I didn't understand. Finally one day I asked her about her real family and she said they lived in a pink house. She quit talking about them when she was around 3 1/2.

As pp's said, I also experienced a lot of deja vu throughout high school. I wonder why? Maybe it's a glitch in the system, like in The Matrix. No, seriously I don't know much about soul agreements or life charts. I'll have to look it up. I'm going to the library today....any book recommendations? Must reads?

Wow. Ya, I definitely believe in past lives.

Question: What do you think about fears/phobias? Like when someone has a fear of something since very early on. I've always been afraid of deep water. Like, being out in the ocean and not being able to see what's under me. So I kinda think (in a way) that perhaps something (tragic) happened to me in my past life that had to do w/ deep water.

But I don't know because alot of people have very similiar fears. Like heights, snakes, spiders, etc.
Anyone have any takes on fears?

I kinda think the 2 could be related for some (like majikfaerie's daughter's fear of water and then her revealing her past life story), and for others they could be manifestations of other things.

I think interpretation of some of these things is so individualized and there can be no one "catch all" way to look at things like fears, dreams, etc. They mean something so different for each of us.

I think though, that if you have that thought/hit/instinct about yourself and where your fear may come from, that there is a distinct possibility that you may have experienced this in some other life/incarnation.....but thats just me

Earth Angel, I love the quote in your siggy!

About past lives and phobias -- ever since I was a little girl I was terrified of high bridges. It was awful, and I didn't have any rational explanation. When I became pregnant, my fear all of a sudden vanished and hasn't come back. I figure I must have died on a bridge in a previous lifetime before I ever bore children -- it's really amazing to me how terrified I was before, and now we can be halfway over a bridge before I even realize it. The past life explanation is the only one that makes sense to me.

Fiestabeth, Sylvia Browne talks a lot about life charts in many of her books. I think Brian Weiss does too -- he wrote "Many Lives, Many Masters." I think even John Edward does. Some of my favorite metaphysical books, though, are Shirley Maclaines! I loved "Out on a Limb," "Dancing in the Light," and "The Camino." I don't care what the critics say about her, I really enjoy her books! Richard Bach's "Bridge Across Forever" and "One" are also very good. I know I've read a ton more but these are the ones that come to mind right now.

Yes, dh and I have a definite telepathic connection. It still amazes me how often it happens that we have the same thought or know what the other is thinking -- it's daily thing. Very cool. And some of our best friends are 65.

About dreams, my first prophetic dream was when I was 16 and my grandfather came to say goodbye to me the night he died. Since then I've had many, many prophetic and informative dreams. I consider my dream-time to be an important part of my education! I feel my grandfather gave me a gift with that first dream--I'm very thankful to him.

Yeah, It encompasses a lot of whats been in the forefront of my mind lately, and especially since finding this thread

Have you ever listened to any of his music? He is definately a system busting Indigo!! I think a lot of musicians, especially those that use their music to promote social change are often tapped into the spiritual realm in a major way.

Thanks for the recommendations! I did read one of John Edward's books, can't remember which one.

My grandpa came to me to say goodbye too. It was a beautiful dream. My grandma, whom I never met, (she died of leukemia at age 47) was sitting on a bench with a huge smile and expectant look on her face. I came near and said, "You're waiting for him, aren't you?" and she simply nodded, without really acknowledging my presence or averting her gaze. I then turned and saw Grampa, and he was just glowing, grinning from ear to ear. I said, "I love you, Grampa, you've been a good Grampa to me." He said, "I love you, too, Hijta." In my dream I didn't witness the surely joyous reunion of my grandparents, but the obvious joy on their faces was so comforting. He and I were very close. I gave the eulogy at his service. I've really been missing him lately.

[majazama]

wow, that's amazing about your grandparents coming to visit you before they die. I wonder if that will happen for me one day. All my grandparents are still alive, which is quite rare!

ya. i see where you're coming from.

I just had a really cool realization. Sorry if it gets a little lengthy while trying to explain. So I went to the library today, and looked up some books (including Sylvia Browne, KateSt. ) but all the ones I was interested in were checked out. So I started just walking up and down the aisles, just browsing, and thinking it was kind of a silly way to try and find something good to read. I came across a few goddess books, and I am having a goddess party this weekend for my favorite females, so I picked one out called The Goddess in Every Girl: Develop Your Teen Feminine Power by M.J. Abadie. I'm obviously no longer a teen, but I thought it might still be applicable.

I started reading it tonight, and as I am new to more "pagan" streams of thought, I learned some cool stuff. I knew that the moon was a goddess symbol, but I didn't know that the serpent is "a most potent symbol for the way of the goddess, and represents the life cycle of birth-death-rebirth."

A few years ago, while struggling with infertility, I had a very vivid dream of a beautiful, chubby baby girl. She was beyond cute, and smiling and babbling, and happy as could be, sitting amongst flowers. I smiled and cooed at her, but I wanted desperately to hold her. Every time I reached down to take her in my arms however, she hissed at me, and opened her mouth to reveal a forked, serpent's tongue. She continued smiling and babbling, though, even as she hissed. She was happy throughout the dream. I, however, was quite taken aback, but continued to try and hold her.

So I have remembered that dream, because it was so vivid, and when my daughter S was about six months old, I knew that she was the baby from my dream, and it bothered me because I had always seen snakes in a negative and not positive light. The end of this long story is that I was delighted to learn about serpent symbolism tonight, and while I still don't completely know the meaning of that dream, I am glad to not think of it so negatively now.

(I would be happy to hear any insight anyone has on the possible meaning of that dream. I'm thinking that maybe it was simply S' way of letting me know she was coming, and the snake part simply had to do with being a symbol of her rebirth. I had the dream several months before I conceived.)

I have a similar experience with 'meeting' my dd before I concieved.
I had been dreaming one night that I met a young blonde girl, and she was so happy and shiny, full of light. we were laughing together, I was so happy, my tummy jumping like I was on a roller coaster, and I had the most amazing joyous, orgasmic sensations throughout my body. It was so wonderful.

It turned out that I was laughing for real, not just in the dream, and after I woke up my boyfriend told me I had been laughing like crazy in my sleep and woken him up, and at the time our whole tent (we were camping) was filled with a bright light, as if it were full moon, but it wasnt.

I knew that it was the spirit of a child wanting to be born through me, but at the time I really didnt want a child, so I made some rituals and meditations, asking the spirit to wait until I was ready.

I felt the prescence of this spirit many times over the next couple of months, but I was always focussing on not getting pg. Only when I arrived to Amsterdam after hitchhiking all the way from Cape Town , South Africa (yes, really, I travelled overland all the way, except for a short jump over the mediterranean) which was a 10 week non-stop journey. I arrived into dh's arms, totally exhausted and not paying attention to my body or the fact that I was ovulating.

We concieved that night, and I dreamed again of this spirit girl, but for some reason (she tricked me ) I didnt try to keep her out, I was just to exhausted, and happy to have arrived after such a long and (wonderful but) arduous travel.

So I got pregnant, but at least I got to 'meet' her first.

[Cougarmilk]

It's weird, but I don't care what age a person is. Is that reflective of a "type?" There are times when I really have no clue how old someone is.

That is an amazing and wonderful story!! I bet your dd loves to hear it.

Here's another good link;
http://www.reconnections.net/more_children_oneness.htm
Talks a bit about age in the beginning of the article -- don't know if this is what you were referring to, Cougarmilk.

There is A LOT of interesting info on this site and his star children site.

Fiestabeth, what a great revelation!

Earth Angel, I've never heard his music, but I'm intrigued...

Hope all you Mamas are doing well.

[DuckyTate]

Still reading.

[Earth Angel]

Earth Angel, I've never heard his music, but I'm intrigued...

Let me preface by saying..... I'm a music person, it is one of the ways that I connect....and also release!!

Michael Franti's band is called Spearhead, and his story is kinda interesting (www.spearheadvibrations.com....I think you can find his bio there somewhere???). He is very political in his lyrics, as well as his life. He organized the 911 festival Power to the Peaceful, 2 years before the tragedy of 9/11/01. He chose the date to bring awarenes to the "emergency" of addressing things like our political system, our educational system etc. Then, 2 years later, "9/11" happened, and it has grown since then. It is a free festival in San Franscisco's Golden Gate Park (ETA it is actually this weekend.....I just glanced over at the calendar!!)
He also recently released a documentary called "I Know I"m Not Alone" in which he and several others went to Iraq and Israel/Palestine and just talked to the people, with music. It is a very powerful movie.

Anyway, he is a songwritger that to me, expresses some very powerful ideals through his lyrics.....Ani DiFranco is another one for me. And also, someone else said it on this thread, and I agree, The Grateful Dead. I think they had a big part to play in helping a lot of people break free from many of the current "systems" that are in need of repair currently ( They for sure did for me It is through them that I was initially introduced to many of these ideas being expressed on the thread here). Unfortunately the Dead aren't around anymore , but the music did truely "play the band" and they affected soooooo many for the 30 yrs they were playing.

To me, these musicians (and others) have taken on a large role with regard to the changes we all will experience in the future. They help us to feel that we are not alone in our views (with their lyrics/music), their concerts bring/have brought many of us together, and they themselves, put their hearts out there for all of us for no reason but the love of their fellow humans and the love we all have for music.....I think that is so powerful!!!

You can download some free Spearhead (and lots of other fabulous bands) shows here

As music goes traditional Irish and Scotish Music speaks to my heart in a way that touches my soul.
There have been times when I thought a soundtrack to life would help it all make more since too.
I think DeJaVu is an opening to see deeper in to a given situation, not so much what has happened already but what COULD happen next if you choose to change or controll a moment.

Reading this post has convinced me to open myself up wider than I have been allowing myself to be open for the past ten years.
