Iam quite confused, i understand the concept of indigo children a little, but iam born in 1988 (july), what does this make me? My boyfriend (born march 1987) reveals a few of the indigo qualities, such as empathy, intuition, spontaenous hugs, "mind reading" and is very anti-authority. He also see's the most bizarre yet interesting things that most poeple completely miss, most poeple when meeting him "stamp" him as defiant and impatient... am i right- is he an indigo child?

Saturn's ringed world
Seeing rings around
Saturn.
Hundreds of years before telescopes were invented, ancient sky watchers were gazing into the night sky to view Saturn, which shines brighter than most of the stars in the sky. But it was not until Galileo pointed his telescope at Saturn in 1610 that those famous "hula-hoop" rings were seen.
Although Galileo saw the rings, he did not know what they were. He thought the rings were two moons, one on each side of the planet. These "moons" seemed to play "hide-and-seek" with him, appearing and disappearing over several years of observations. Dutch astronomer Christiaan Huygens solved the mystery in the 1650s. In his book, Huygens described Saturn as being "surrounded by a thin flat ring." The discovery of Saturn's mysterious ring system led to a rush of observations of the planet during Huygens' time.
Today, astronomers are still studying Saturn, the sixth planet from the Sun, in an attempt to understand the planet and its ring system. After hundreds of years of Saturn watching, there is still so much information that astronomers do not know about the planet and its signature rings.
Other planets have rings, but they are so faint that we cannot easily see them. Saturn's rings stand out because they are very bright and contain lots of material. Their brightness is due to their makeup. The rings are made of icy material which reflects sunlight, just as ice does on Earth.
Saturn and its ring system are so special that three spacecraft have visited the planet over the past 30 years to take some close-up views. None of the spacecraft, however, has landed on the ringed planet. Saturn, like Jupiter, is a gas giant and does not have a solid surface. The first spacecraft to fly by Saturn was Pioneer 11 in the late 1970s. In the early 1980s, Voyager 1 and 2 flew by the ringed planet. Even the Earth-orbiting Hubble Space Telescope has been "eyeing" the planet, snapping several spectacular pictures since its launch in 1990.
Observations from Hubble, the three spacecraft, and many ground-based telescopes have yielded valuable information about Saturn and its famous rings. The planet's ring system is made up of about 10,000 rings, called ringlets. The average ring is about 175,000 miles (280,000 km) across, yet only about half a mile (1 km) thick. These measurements may seem very large, but remember, the rings orbit a huge planet. So, compared with Saturn's size, the rings appear paper-thin.
The rings are not made up of solid sheets of material. Astronomers believe the rings are made of pieces of dusty water ice, which range in size from dust grains to boulders. These particles gently collide with each other as they go around Saturn. The rings orbit Saturn just as our Moon goes around the Earth. If our Moon broke apart, the pieces would form a ring around our planet. The collisions between the ring particles are what make the ring system so thin.
Although astronomers have spent about 400 years looking at Saturn, they do not know everything about its ring system. Now a new spacecraft designed to study Saturn, its moons, and its complex ring system has settled into orbit around the planet. Named Cassini, for the Italian astronomer who studied the planet in the late 1600s, the spacecraft spent nearly seven years traveling to Saturn.
On July 1, 2004, the seasoned traveler finally arrived. The spacecraft flew through the faint, wispy outer rings and settled into orbit around the second largest planet in the solar system. It will spend four years studying the planet. Scientists hope Cassini will help explain how and when Saturn's rings were formed, why there are gaps between the rings, and even why Saturn has such a spectacular ring system.
Please reply, as iam curious and willing to learn more about crystal children etc...

ps; it can also be said he is very loving...

I have a 4 year old son whom I have been told by a dear family friend (physic) that he is "Indigo" she has told me to read the book. I have read the Charastics" but how do I really know. He is a very sensitive child and seems really smart. She has told me to read the book before he starts school so I dont think that he has "ADHD". I personally dont believe in "ADHD". I do watch what my sons eats, I would love any information. I'm going back to add this site to my favorites. THANKS
