10 ways to recognize your Extraordinary Star Child

Star children are here to herald a new era of living, where everyone lives in love, in peace and in joy.

Many people have heard the term 'Star children' for the first time and are completely unaware of what the term 'Star Child' means. Some have even asked me if by star child, I meant children of celebrities. So we've put together this article that will help you recognize your star child.

This article is for those parents who believe there is something extra ordinary about your child, though you may not be able to say what exactly it is.

This article is for those parents who wish to not only know who star children are, but who also wish to do something about this special blessing that they have received.

This article is for those parents who believe that Earth needs help, and that help is here.

Star children are one of the 'types of help' that has been sent, to help Earth out of the mess that it is in.

Star children are souls that have been born on Earth, but have come from other stars and constellations and other dimensions.

To understand all this in a much deeper way, we'll need to go through many years of learning and experiencing. So, we'll make it short and crisp, to facilitate a basic understanding.

First we need to understand why there are so many Star Children on Earth today.

Earth is going through a lot of changes - physically which we can see and experience, as well as energetically. Gaia (the spiritual name for Earth) is going through a process of Ascension. Ascension is the rising of Earth’s energies and vibrations. We are moving from a 3 dimensional planet to a 5 dimensional planet, which means that the vibrations on Earth have to become much purer and of a higher nature. These subtle energies are becoming more prominent to those who are open to sensing it.

This also means that in time, only those souls will remain on Earth, who raise their vibrations to match the Earth's higher vibrations.

To help Earth Beings in this process of transition, and to help them raise their vibrations, some higher souls from other dimensions and constellations, are coming on Earth. These souls are born as children that we refer to as Star Children. Star children choose to be born to parents who can nurture their special star qualities, so that as they grow, they can help the people around them elevate their energy vibrations; to match up to Earth's rising energy vibrations.

Imagine the star children on Earth today like a city that you see in the night time, from a plane a couple of minutes before landing. There are many dots of lights that you see. These dots of light are the star children. Their life purpose is to increase the brightness around so that no corner on Earth is left in darkness.

Your job as a parent of the star child is to help your child shine bright, so that he/ she can do the work he/ she has come here to do.

Star children are also known as Indigo children, Crystal children, Rainbow children and so on.

Here are some characteristics of Star Children that may help you recognize if your child is a star child or not.

A lot of these characteristics are displayed before the age of 4/5, as post that, if their special qualities are not nurtured well, they start dimming as the child is exposed to more and more social conditioning.

At the same time, if your child exhibited these qualities as a young child but not as they grow older, it doesn't necessarily mean that their qualities have not been nurtured. It could also mean that they are now displaying their qualities in different ways, ways that are conducive to the environments they live in.

Here are 10 characteristics displayed by young star children until around the age of 5.


1. The one most important characteristic of star children is that they sometimes exhibit wisdom far beyond their age. This wisdom comes from their life in higher dimensions and their awareness of it.

You might find a 2 year old telling you what posture to sit or lie in when you are feeling tired, so that you may feel better quickly. Or you may find your 18 month old rubbing their tiny hands on your head to comfort you when you feel low - and you actually feel better. You may find your 4 year old telling you not to shout because it makes the energies go low, or you may just find them wanting to wash their hands and have a bath too often (as it helps to cleanse off the low energies they've absorbed).

There have been instances of star children as young as 3 years old consoling their parents about life beyond earth (or life after death); a conversation especially triggered by the death of a close family member.

2. With star children, you may often face difficult situations especially if you've been a soul disconnected from your Inner Wise Self.

So you may find your star child push you to an extreme emotional situation, such that you are forced to look for ways to find inner peace. Star children begin their missions by helping parents and immediate family raise awareness, by directing them to question life beyond the material.

3. Star children have wise eyes and sometimes they look real deep into your eyes - and you know that they are seeing beyond the physical you.

4. Star children may seem to communicate with invisible beings, especially till the age of 3 or 4. That is before they start to familiarise themselves with the ways of this world. Some continue their communication with their spirit friends and guides even after they pass this age. Some can even see passed over loved ones and may give messages from them to you.

5. Star children have sensitive energies. They are like sponges. So if they have been with a very aggressive person, they'll come back very aggressive. Similarly, if they've been with a gentle person, they'll come back feeling gentle.

Star children are also very sensitive to your energies. So if you are feeling frustration, anger, irritation inside, they will act in the same way back to you.

The best way to work with them is by being an example of what you may wish for them to learn. In the process they teach care-givers the biggest lesson of having to 'walk the talk'.

6. Star children like to express themselves through right brained activities such as art and craft, drawing and painting, singing and dancing and so on. This is not about doing well in structured drawing or dance classes, but about the ability to express themselves freely and wordlessly with an art form. Though some may even express themselves through poetry.

So you may see that when your child is sad, they sit with a paper and are drawing something or that they will play some music and sway to it and sometimes even sway to some imaginary music.

7. Star children have great connection to nature, animals and some feel very drawn to the night sky and stars and moon. 
So you may find your star child spend hours quietly gazing at water flowing by or rain falling. Some may love to spend hours in nature, walking around, picking up stones or flowers or leaves. Some may have an almost magical way of being with animals. Some may love gazing at stars in the night and if you wake up in the middle of the night, you may catch them looking up at the stars and moon.

8. Star children have lots of energy and do not require much food to sustain their energy levels. This is because they are able to naturally get in energy from Prana - the cosmic energy that sustains all of life. However at times, they'll go on an eating binge - which could be mostly to deal with some form an emotional upheaval that they are feeling.

9. Star children are very connected to the cosmic and world energies. So you may find your child displaying sadness for no apparent reason - when there is some tragedy that has happened somewhere in the world. Or you may find sudden change in the behaviours of your child - hyper or real slowdowns during full moon and new moon days.

10. Some star children may display healing energies. You may actually put your head on the lap of an 8 month old and feel peaceful and calm. The star child may even sometimes use their tiny hands to send you healing energy that could heal away your physical pains - atleast for a bit.

Not all star children will necessarily display all these characteristics. And neither is it necessary that if a child displays any one characteristic, they are a star child.

Finally, it is about their spiritual energy and the aura that they carry.

It is a thing to sense, though the seers who can see the auras with their naked eyes can see the children and know.

We hope this article helps you recognize the great gift that you have. We would love to know how your child has pushed you to question the deeper meaning in life.

If you feel that your child is a star child, then it means that you have a great responsibility in your hands, and you may need to work on a lot of things; including yourself so as to be able to help your child shine.

If you are not sure that you have a star child, even then, it’s worth parenting them as though they are a star child. This is because all children are closer to The Light, than adults are. And if we nurture them in ways that are gentle and peaceful, we will be enhancing their life experiences.

Growing up with Star Children

Blessed with 2 star children, I am going through a phase of intense learning and growing up.

What are star children?

Many people ask me if by star children I meant children of famous movie stars and celebs?

So, no dear parents, star children are children who are born on earth from another dimension of space and time, from other stars, from other planets or other constellations. (Yes, this does mean that there is life on places other than Earth :))

Many souls are being born on Earth at this time to help it in 'The Shift' which it is going through right now. This shift is about elevating the energies of Earth as a planet.

These souls are called star children, and also go by other names such as indigo children, crystal children, rainbow children and so on.

Star children have very sensitive energies. Just like a sponge soaks in all the water around it, so do the star children soak in all energies around them - good as well as bad.

Parenting star children means to be aware of their sensitive energies, and to make the required changes in your habits, behaviors and lifestyle so as to help the children deal with their sensitive energies better and in turn raise your own vibration levels as well as that of Earth's.

Parenting the star children also means growing up. Spiritual growing up of the parent :).

I have 2 star children - one daughter aged 6 and one daughter aged 1.

In the past 6 years, my life has changed and I've grown by leap and bounds.

I grew up spiritually.

I was like a little baby - so demanding about everything.

I wanted my food to be a particular way, I wanted my job to be a particular way, I wanted my house to be in a particular way, I wanted my life to be in a particular way. If I didn't get things my way, I would throw a tantrum of fear, anger, restlessness, feelings of unworth and so on.

But once I had my first daughter, I became a toddler, and then rapidly and steadfastly I became a young teen - spiritually.

By the time my second daughter completed her first year on earth, I turned into a fine young adult - spiritually.

These are some of the life lessons that helped me grow from a  baby to a fine adult in 6 years.

1. Practicing yoga, mindfulness, meditation are the 3 most important methods that helped  me tune within and connect better with my children.

2. Unbiased self analysis went a long way in helping me dissolve barriers between my higher self and my ego self, between me and my children, between my material life and my spiritual life. Not only did I do a lot of self analysis, I also made changes in areas where I realized it was 'me' that needed to change and not the situation or the people involved in the situation.

3. Taking notice of my intuition and taking action on it. Intuition is a way of communication between the higher self and the ego self. So when you act upon your intuition, you are actually working on the advice of the higher self. I took a lot of notice of my intuition and acted upon it, however weird the option seemed to me at that moment.

4. Taking time out for myself. This is a very important point that most parents ignore. I realized that to be able to give my daughters better quality time, I needed to take some time off from them, doing what I loved doing. Once that was realized, it was easier to decide what I wanted to do in my time-off and what my children would be doing in my time-off time.

5. Switching to a healthier lifestyle. We've all had unhealthy lifestyle phases - phases where we ate too much of junk food, smoked, drank alcohol, slept too late, got up very late and so on. But we moved ahead. We changed our behaviors. I made many lifestyle changes as guided by my daughters, so that I could be more in-tune with the true reality.

6. Balancing between conventional parenting patterns and intuitive parenting. Conventional parenting has an answer for almost every thing - but does that apply to the star children? My intuition did not agree to many of those patterns. For example, conventional disciplining, food habits, schooling, sleeping times etc were all questioned by my intuition and taking in the guidance from my higher self, I parented my children intuitively. I realized that conventional parenting techniques were not working for these sensitive star children.

I'm going to use one of my favorite analogies to explain this better:

If your body is getting insufficient rest or improper nutrition, you develop certain medical symptoms like aches and pains, blood pressure, acidity and so on. These medical symptoms are ways that your body is demanding you to take notice of it and take better care of it.

Similarly, when we are not listening to our higher self that knows all and can guide us, then we get children, who demand that we go deep within to find answers to the impossible situations they put us in.

When your body develops the first medical symptoms, you may choose to ignore it or numb it down with temporary medicines.

Similarly, when the kids first start being demanding, you may choose to quieten them down with anger and threats and do nothing to change yourself.

But when the body starts developing more severe symptoms, you are finally forced to take notice of what your body actually wants.

Similarly, when the kids become more and more demanding, and you've shouted and slapped them several times out of anger, you can choose to do something about it and start looking at the situation from another angle - that of your deeper, higher self.

What an analogy, you may think, but doesn't it make sense?

The children today want us to take notice of our Self.

These children are mirrors of our Self and what we think and feel within.

You can try this out for yourself some day.

One day when you feel particularly angry with your child for their behavior, quietly and truthfully analyse yourself. See if somewhere within yourself, you are having feelings of unworth, anger, irritation, helplessness and so on.

Chances are that you will mostly see a pattern building up.

When you feel angry within, so does your child.

When you feel insecure within, so does your child.

When you feel frustration within, your child also displays frustrating behavior.

So what are they then, but mirrors of your own emotions?

And what better way could God show you what you are feeling within, than by sending you mirrors that reflect your deepest thoughts and emotions!!

Home Schooling Iya!!

Back again after a long time.

Have been trying to figure out the best way to home-school my daughter.

Yes. Home-school.

After sending Iya to school for 3 years (lower kindergarten, upper kindergarten and 1st std), I've finally decided to get her out of the factory production module and home-school her to hone her true self.

People ask me how I home-school her and how much time I spend with her daily, teaching her.

Well, I calculated the time I need to spend 'teaching her' in the following manner.

Out of 365 days of school, 2 months are vacations - which leaves 305 days. Taking out the weekends, that leaves roughly 220 days. Taking out the festival holidays and the occasional bandh and monsoon offs, there are roughly about 190 days of school.

Out of the 6 hours that she takes to go and come back from school, 2 hours were for travelling to and fro and settling down in school or packing up. Taking the breaks and Good Morning teacher formalities, taking out the books etc time away, I figured that actual learning happened for about 2-3 hours for 190 days. That is roughly 550 hours an year, which if divided per day is about 1.5 hours.

Now that was quite doable!!

The next question was how to home-school and what curriculum to follow.

I found along the way that there are 2 branches in homeschooling - one that un-schools and one that follows a curriculum.

So un-schooling is where you basically just allow your child to learn on their own as and when they feel ready to learn. You do not 'teach' them until and unless they come asking you to explain to them something.

And following a curriculum is like school but, followed at home, with assessment and some even have 'home work'!!

As of now, considering that Iya is just 6 years old, I am really not bothered about following any curriculum. I have taken a mid path - un-schooling her as well as teaching her a few things off and on. Right now, I'm just letting her explore her interests, and every once in a while, our general conversations point out to certain topics that need further explanations, and so we sit down and learn about it.

For example, just the other day, Iya was questioning on the dinner table why she had to eat dal! Iya is very fond of vegetables and fruits, so feeding that has never been an issue with her, but dal has always been a difficult one. Being vegetarians, dal is an important source of protein.

So, we sat down to learn about the different nutritional needs of the body, the foods that supply those nutrients and what each nutrient does for the body.

Learning is done in a writing, exploring, googling, researching mode, ending with a diagramatic table of the foods she can eat daily to get all the nutrition that she requires.

Why she needs to eat dal is now answered - after 5 days of learning.

Once, on a holiday, we were staying at a retreat close to a forest area. We heard a barking deer, and as she questioned about the deer and what it eats, we went on to learn about herbivores, carnivores and omnivores.

Isn't this how learning should be?

Will she ever forget this now?

I suspect not.

Conventional schooling is left brained, where the right brain is left to fend for itself - bringing on confusing imbalances in ones life. You feel this imbalance when you do not know what subjects to study, what specializations to take up, when you join jobs that don't satisfy you, that don't complete you, that you do out of habit, or because of the degrees you've earned, but not out of your fondness for that subject.

Homeschooling, with sufficient exposure to the world, and with sufficient freedom for exploration can actually bring about balanced growth of the left brain and the right brain.

For me, this was very important.

To nourish her Body, Mind and Soul, we enrolled her in various fun activity classes that work on her body strength and stamina or that stimulate her brain - both left and right, while also doing many left and right brained activities at home.

Having heard often about our ancient wisdom and how science which we know today, has been coded in our ancient texts, I was quite keen for Iya to learn our ancient wisdom. So our Soul nourishment plan includes learning the sacred chants from the Vedas. As she learns each mantra, she shares it on a YouTube video with the world, so that everyone can benefit from that knowledge.

With ample of time for all sorts of exploration, we are truly having as great time home-schooled. home-schooling for both - Iya and me.

We cook together some times, we build tents from bedsheets and read story books inside it, we play board games, we even design new board games, we do art and craft together, we look after the dog, we play with the little sister, we float paper boats and get wet in the rain, we talk, we watch TV and YouTube; we live each moment together.

Yes, at times I do feel tired of the constant attention that is required out of me (especially since I have a 1 year old daughter and a really old and critically ill dog), yet, home-schooling has been a great experience for me and I am loving every bit of what each day brings on for us.

Will I forever home-school Iya?

I don't know yet.

Just as I follow my intuition on what we need to do on a daily basis, so too, I'll let my intuition guide me on how long I need to home school her and when I'll need to school her (in a conventional or a holistic education school) or home school her with a curriculum.
