The process of change is a time demanding far more flexibility, creativity, and preparation. It's a process where many people all over the world will and are beginning to look at the world in a different way. Times have changed. People can see it, sense it, and some claim to know it. Those amongst us in particular who are leaving Indigo statues and now becoming Crystal Adults this global process into a new world can be extra challenging.

Some are transitioning in a relatively smooth way, remaining open to understanding this special time of new awareness and new direction, globally. Understanding their role at this point in their lives are preparing in numbers and understand how they are to help others in a brand new way. Others, however, are experiencing crisis in several areas, one of which has to do with the process of opening up to new awareness. That is, many are transitioning through experiences which seem harsh, and isolating but it's apart of the larger plan.

For the most part it's not a conscious decision, it's link is subconscious directing people, guiding people through new initiations. Symptoms of such a transition can include psychological change, emotional change and physical change. Leaving the 'old' life behind while going through this type of transition, one can feel depressed, isolated, and lonely. Physical symptoms can include weight gain then loss (bloating feeling that comes on for a few days then back to normal you go, then back up again and so on), acute aches in certain parts of the body, lethargy, anxiety attacks, manic episodes, anti-social behavior can set in and out and when trying to seek treatment from a physician, psychologist or psychiatrist can be frustrating.

A break through into a new awareness for Indigos transitioning into Crystals is similar to those who have resigned to leading a more spiritual life. This is not by chance, as more people are looking for new answers to life and their role in this world. They too can experience spontaneous shifts or gradual shifts all showing similar uneasiness and related conditions.

"Why does the process have to be so intense?", I get asked all the time. And there is a good reason for it.

There are three major areas I have found through my own transitioning, research and in speaking with others, that needs to be cleared out of their lives before the next cycle of growth can take affect/effect. It is a new world now, and the importance of clearing out all the old blocks/fears and attitudes cannot be underestimated. It seems like a tall order but it is an important foundation to work on for the next wave of growth, around the world. There is work to be done but it is a calling which many of you already understand. Major areas of change include:

• FEELING - there are some Indigos who have become blocked in the area of feeling. Not being understood as a child is one reason for developing a coping strategy that does not allow for you to feel. To feel would cause you pain, and in transitioning, new coping skills are needed to replace the old methods so you can function with feeling once more. Your innate ability toward extra-sensory perception, including feeling should be celebrated and you will be needing this area to help others in many different ways. Compassion and unification globally, to which you will truly understand, cannot be reached unless you begin to heal. The process of opening up to your feelings will allow you to gain much more information about yourself and others through wonder and gainful knowledge. As oppose to defensive, closed channels which has probably lead you down a few not so great choice roads. For the most part you learned your lessons the hard way, and this too is invaluable. But now, it's an outdated coping mechanism that will not serve you well along the journey ahead. This note is also for those who are going through spontaneous openings (awakenings) as you too are being called forth to be of assistance to many, in different ways to come.
• PERCEIVING is another area due for major transformation. It would make sense that this too has been debilitated due to your younger years of blocking out feelings (how you feel about 'x' or 'y' and compassion for others). It's o.k to feel, and once you open up to perceiving the world within you and around you, you are more able to discern what belongs to you and what belongs to the environment (people and places). Many perceptions when Indigo children did perceive was ridden with negativity. Some Indigo children were rewarded with guilt, punishment, anger and other controlling methods by those who didn't understand you. It's over now. Opening up the channels of perception is o.k. and it will serve as a blessing for you and others many years to come. Perceptions then became linked with negative feed-back and the discomfort allowed for adopting a new way to cope - substance abuse being one such course of action. Being misunderstood has lead many toward non-expression, anger, depression, or the inability to move ahead in life. Confusion is common because of the cycle of perception avoidance.
• CREATIVITY follows as the third area for growth and renewal. The heart has been closed for a good many years. Not being able to feel, or perceive, how is it possible to really understand your creative, self expressive side? It's been shut down too! Many have traveled down the road never really claiming their own essence along the way and are lost to how to live life. Being lead by others, taking onboard other people's ways, learning how to live without backlash, or abandonment. These realities for many are very real. Loosing oneself began back in childhood for some who could not, would not, open themselves up totally in fear of being misunderstood. Or, worst yet, would feel they needed to conform because they learned that being different was not o.k. So, learning and opening up from the heart may take some time, but this process of change finally demands you step up to be and do all that you came to earth to accomplish.

So the transformation, the shift, into a new way of life from a higher vibratory level has begun primarily focused on these three areas. How is the transformation going to be experienced? I have outlined some of what myself and others have experienced. I hope this helps you feel less isolated and more prepared for the journey ahead. What's more? It's a time to celebrate these changes because I for one know it's worth undergoing. It's a chance to break through and leave all that is outdated behind. A chance for new strength, new visions, a new you and a new way of relating to the world. Here are some of what can transpire.

• You are acknowledging unusual sensitivity while you are out in different environments (from shopping to visiting friends). Your old ways of remaining shut down is not operating anymore and the sensations you cannot exactly express is leaving you uneasy and restless.  It feel overwhelming out there and all you want to do is withdraw.  It is about becoming more sensitive and dealing with higher vibrations. So, you will pick up different energies that can leave you feeling anxious, uneasy, or drained.
• For those who have gone through major awakenings also understand that you do become more in-tuned to subtle information. You will begin to notice increased awareness, extra sensitive, to what's going on around you.  For example, your five sense become heightened along with noticing premonition type dreams, coincidences, noticing synchronicity, knowing things before it happens (like your friend calling you and his/her name popped into your head just before the phone rings). You may 'hear' things, and pick up empathically on people's inner thoughts and feelings. You are able to get to the core of what may be plaguing another person. Your tolerance level also takes a dip!
• Feeling anxious most of the time. Panic attacks are common.
• Not feeling like doing anything at all! There appears to be a withdraw from your normal routine. Dreaming, and reading all things spiritual, new age, metaphysical can also occur. The general theme here is to escape, nap, and/or to zone out!
• Obsessive thoughts and/or an overactive mind. It's as if there is a feeling of being 'out-of-control' at time as the mind keeps wondering and running on over-drive.
• Depression is most common. Feeling hopeless interchanged with helplessness can plague some people. People lose interest in things, people, events or places they once enjoyed.
• Sleeping is favored but many do experience disruption in their sleeping patterns. Waking up in the middle of the night, usually at the same time every night, is common- usually between 3:00-4:00 a.m. Higher vibrations are involved in this opening process which means that along with opening up spiritually, emotionally, psychologically, consciousness is expanding, and the higher mind is now opening a new channel. This is the time 'It' functions best! Usually in the middle of the night.
• Noticing sensations throughout the body and noticing subtle influences on how the environment effects them . Sometimes electrical (!), feeling tingling sensations at times, hear buzzing or other audible noises other times, feeling the energies shift and change in rooms are some examples. Visualization techniques can help reduce this effect and/or spending more time in nature helps tremendously. Important to note here: make sure you adjust your diet to more grounding foods. Crackers, Breads, cereals, pasta were my grounding foods!  
• The body also is undergoing detoxification. Not because your diet was poor, but because emotions are being cleansed and years of holding in one's experiences along with other people's emotional baggage is being cleared out. The detoxification will include: feeling tired, headaches, especially at the base of the skull, muscle spasms, joint pain, vertigo, blurred vision (sometimes one eye's vision will differ from the other) are some symptoms.
• Not being 'with it' or not being able to think properly, feeling of dizziness is common because you are dealing with higher vibrations. At times of the month, these states of being can increase and then wane. The trick at this point is to know how to ground yourself and operate at a higher vibration at the same time. It's a foreign feeling and state to be in, but operating at a higher state will feel more comfortable in time.
• Weight gain and binge eating. Normal at this point because you are beginning to operate in a higher vibratory state which requires more energy. This can be controlled in time. Be good to yourself.

• Ability to become aware of all that's hidden including seeing deceased family members, friends who have passed on, angels, spirits, and other entities. Dreams can also produce premonitions and contact with the other side.

Know that this is an important time of transition and being good to yourself through this process is something I strongly encourage. Having gone through these changes myself with little support or knowledge about this transition, you have people like myself who understand. Also, there are amazing techniques you can learn along the way so that you are better able to cope with this transitional time. Learning new ways to stay grounded and centered is important and there are many books out there that can help you. Also, online communities can be of tremendous help! Lastly, I want to say celebrate your growth, your unique self, and how very far you have come! Many more wonderful blessings are to come, all is well!
