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!!

Children and Conditioned Beliefs

"You need to work hard to succeed in life". How many of you believe in this statement?

I do not believe in it.

Does one have to put in a lot of effort to make the boat go downstream? You just need basic skill set to stay away from the rocks and stay on-stream.

The efforts are needed when you are going against the flow. Hard work is needed when you are going against the Cosmic flow.

So when we tell our children that hard work is needed to succeed in life, what are we bringing their focus upon? Their focus is on the success that will come in life. That success becomes the goal.

I want to be a teacher. I want to be a doctor. I want to be an engineer. I want to be a pilot.

These are all goals, and achieving them is what defines their success in life.

But what if the soul had pre-birth, planned to be a horticulturist in this birth and not an engineer?

Are you judging a fish by its ability to climb a tree?

We need to teach our children to learn to go with the flow. We need to teach them to connect to their deeper, Higher Self and follow the guidance that comes through.

I know parents who believe that their child must have homework everyday from school. Because this gives them the satisfaction that their child is working hard.

Parents of children as little as 5 years or 6 years have started sending their children for tuition for class subjects, as this means that their child is working hard.

I also know parents who micro manage each and every minute of their child with some or the other activity, leaving no space for 'free time' or 'connecting time'.

Isn't this the age for the children to play and discover?

Isn't 'hardwork' versus play, the case made against child labor?

How much free time do you give your child to connect with their deeper, purer selves through creative activities and free time?

How much have you taught your child about the ways to connect with their Higher Selves? Have you guided them in this direction? Have you informed them that they have loads of help in the form of Angels and other Light Beings who can help them in their daily tasks, both physical as well as emotional?

Perhaps its time to re-check the conditioned beliefs that we are carrying over from our childhood and are forcing upon these new age children.

Pets and Children

Children have an innate need to copy the action of their parents.

We see that very often don't we - When your child wants to wear your shoes and walk around? Or they want to pretend play with their kitchen sets, doctor sets, tool kits, shopping trolleys and so on.

They like to act out being the mother or father - and I have seen both girls and boys copying their parents, and enacting them in their play.

When they enact their roles as mother or father, wouldn't it be great if their pretend child responded to their love and affection? What if their pretend child also became their best friend?

A pet can help bring out the nourishing and tender love and care tendencies of a child, as the child gets a response to the love and affection they shower upon their pet.

Of course your pet has to be treated like a family member and not like a 'guard' or a 'toy' and neither must the child allowed to be rough with the pet.

If you have a happy, balanced relation with your pet, your child is going to love being with her/ him and it is going to have great benefits on both of their emotional and mental states.

Often the pet can be a savior as well. There was a time when my daughter used to eat only if I fed her while she fed the dog. And my dog also ate only when fed by my daughter :)

So getting a pet is great for your child as long as you are able to take good care of your pet!

[And by the way, please Adopt, Don't Buy Pets. There are many that are waiting for a great home and they are out on the streets or in an animal rescue center]

Awaken to your Divine Assignment

Many of you may find your children different from the previous generations. We always hear people saying that their 2 year or 3 year old knows how to use the mobile phone or turn the TV on, or that they are much smarter in something else in comparison to what they were at that age. They feel great pride in saying it.

In fact, it is true. Children today are children of the New Age. They have come here on Earth, many from different dimensions, to help Earth in this great period of evolution. In the spiritual language, this evolution is called Ascension, or the rise in consciousness.

These children are the bringers of the new energies, the energies that have their base in love.

Our generation and the previous generations have fed on the energy of fear. Parents have very commonly used fear strategies to get their children to eat, do their homework, sleep on time and basically toe the line. Remember hearing ‘Eat now or I’ll call the cop’, ‘Don’t go there, there is a monster there’ and so on? Parents, grandparents, great grandparents have all lived on the energies of fear and its accompanying emotions of anger, jealousy and hatred. Remember the racial discrimination? Or the discrimination based on religion, region, cast? Or about the jealous feeling when one sees a friend buying a new expensive car or house? Or anger, which doesn’t even require examples.

The new age children have come to help earth rise above these harmful and detrimental emotions so that Earth can evolve into the higher dimension which is based on Love and Joy.

Think about it, amusement parks have a jam packed ‘Haunted House’, but how many amusement parks have a ‘God House or a Miracle house’?

We think it is phenomenal that in the whole Universe we are the only planet that has life, and that the humans here are above everything and everyone else.

The truth is that there is life on many other star systems in the Universe and many of those systems are highly evolved compared to Earth. They have been watching over us and protecting us for millenniums.

Now many are sending souls from their dimensions on Earth, to help Earth rise.

Most children on Earth today are Masters in baby bodies.

Masters of Love and compassion, Masters of our innate ability to connect with the Divine within us and all around us.

 Just like the wave of an ocean, they have come upon Earth to clear away the old, outdated thought patterns and bring in freshness, simplicity and natural-ness.

With this mighty agenda, they chose you as their parents even before they were born. They chose you because they saw that you could be the one to give them the experiences they need, to bring out their True Selves – their Shining Truth.

If you believe in this, then it’s time for you to wake up. It’s time for you to tune-in to your own Divine Self and the Divinity in your child.

It’s time to stop talking. It’s time to start listening.

It’s time to stop struggling. It’s time to go with the flow.

 It’s time to stop doing. It’s time to allow the Divine Will to happen through you.

It’s time to stop thinking. It’s time to start believing.

When you take one step towards the Eternal Truth, the Eternal Truth will take 10 steps towards You.

Awaken Dear Parents to the responsibility of your Divine Assignment – the assignment of bringing up your Divine Child in the ways of the New Energy Age.
