Nihal, the Indigo and Blue Ray Marker
Nihal, also known as Beta Leporis, is the 2nd brightest star in the Lepus constellation. It's believed to be a binary star system and is over 240 million years old. Lepus, the hare, is located below the feet of Orion and is often thought to be his target, or the prey of his dogs, Canis Major and Canis Minor. Nihal is located at Gemini 19°. If you have any planet, luminary, lunar node, Chiron, or your Vertex at this degree, you may be an Indigo Soul. You may even be an ultra-rare Blue Ray, but I'll get into that in a moment.
I love mythology and how it relates to the constellations and weaving it all together into a meaningful nugget, but Lepus doesn't really have any mythology to speak of other than what I mentioned above. Yet, the rabbit has its own thing going on, for sure. It is the literal manifestation of the magician and is proof of his powers, materializing out of pure intention. The rabbit has been murdered for his lucky feet, as if hanging a dead foot from your key chain could bring you luck. *Insert eyeroll* In Chinese astrology, the rabbit is described as shy, articulate, peace-seeking, and lucky. This correlates nicely with the tender Blue Ray souls, so let's go there.
You have likely heard of Indigo, Crystal, and Rainbow children/adults/souls. You may not have heard of the Blue Rays, the forgotten ones. They are often mistaken for Indigos and do have many similarities, but are even more empathic and sensitive. Think Moon in Pisces or water warrior type of being. It is believed that Indigos are Nihal Starseeds, and/or that they have the Gemini 19° marker. My personal belief is that this marker can be a Blue Ray indicator as well. The bottom line is that Lightworkers in general are here to be of service, but must do their own work before they can step into this role in a greater way. Because of this, there are numerous shared traits across the board of various starseed types and soul types. In addition, most of us carry the signatures of our soul's numerous and varied experiences throughout the multiverse.
So what makes the Blue Rays different? In essence, they suffer from low self-esteem in their young life and only speak up for themselves when pushed to the EXTREME. They are more likely to stand up for others before themselves. They KNOW they have a mission, yet literally cannot pin it down until they step into their power, and only then if they've found their self-worth on their own. Their empathic abilities and care for other beings is super extra. Because of this they can stay in unhealthy relationships and situations way too long, are mega targets for narcissists and sociopathic personalities, and can be highly and unfairly judged by others because of their sensitivity and tolerance.
- Like Indigos they do not acknowledge authority and inherently see all as equal. Yet, Blue Rays will internalize the anger and frustration that is caused by their boundaries being pushed. This makes them susceptible to adrenal fatigue and other stress-related health problems.
- Like Indigos they feel different than everyone around them and can feel lonely and misunderstood most of the time. Yet, Blue Rays will stand on their heads a million different ways in their attempts to fit in, hide their natural abilities, and fantasize about being normal as children. At least until they find and fully embrace their self-authority and live from that place completely.
- Blue Rays are generally between the ages of 30-50 at this time, but this is not a hard rule.
- Once they have stepped into their power, they cannot turn back. It usually involves sharing sacred wisdom, healing, teaching spiritual practices, various spiritual service, etc.
- Blue Rays are healed, balanced, and grounded by living waters and should spend time in and near water in order to stay balanced.
- Blue Rays have a natural connection to the Divine Feminine and can carry many energetic attachments to people, places, and things until they learn to set themselves free and transmute their pain, through integration, into power. They can be highly irritating and triggering to vampiric entity attachments in people around them.
*A note to say that my work is no longer focused on Blue Ray specifics or other spiritual groupings or labels. I leave these articles up in case they help someone as I am called away from these themes to assist with deeper healing and awakening.
Nihal Starseeds, Indigo Souls, and Blue Ray Souls
Neptune Sextile Pluto in the Natal Chart - Spiritual Warriors
I’m in shock!! I just got a reading about my starseed origin and the person said my first incarnation in the Milky Way was Nihal, since I didn’t know anything about this constellation I googled and felt drawn to your blog post. I got the shivers with each word I read. I’m actually a pisces moon and got gemini at 19° in the 12th house, not to mention the identification with the traits you described. Omg! I need to process this 😅 thank you for the post ❤️
I have Gemini 20° but in my starsees chart it says Lepus conjunct Nihal 19.32! I completely resonate with everything in this article!
Hi I thought your theory for Nihal starseeds, recently got a reading and I was told my origin is Nihal, I took I look at my birth chart and I have my Chiron in Gemini 18° 11 58r, I’ve been told I am an indigo but I don’t really fit how aggressive The indigos are about paving the way so perhaps I am more of a blue ray?
Hi,
My 25 year old son Micah Hawthorne has his sun at 19.34° Gemini. I would be interested to know your thoughts. Thank you.
I have Venus in Gemini 8th house 19.30 degrees. Lots of earth in my chart followed by air and water.
