Guest guest Posted November 19, 2006 Report Share Posted November 19, 2006 Hello everyone, My problem is that I am very sensitive. For example, my mother has a knee problem. Whenever I am around her, so close to her in distance, my own knees begin to ache as well. It is like I absorb energy like a sponge. I feel very comfortable about this. Is this sth about my aura weakness or what? Any recommendations about how to protect my aura from negative energies? What can I do not to be a " sponge " ? Thank you so much for your answers in advance. Love, Sally Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 19, 2006 Report Share Posted November 19, 2006 Sally, I have the same tendencies. You are an empath. I can also drive by a house and feel the energy the house has absorbed. My husband use to think I was losing it because we would be driving and I would start crying, feeling the sadness of the house (or occupants). I also have very strong empathic tendencies with my children, I have four daughters and when one of them is expecting a baby I will know long before they do, I start having the morning/day/night sickness, you can imagine how I was feeling the year they all four were expecting at the same time. It has actually been kind of funny when the dr tells them the test was negative and I will tell them the opposite only for them to find out sometimes weeks later that I was right all along. But yes, it can have its disadvantages, for example for the last 8 years at least one of my daughters have been pregnant continuously. I learned a few things you can do to lessen the feelings, you really do not want to close them completely off they are a blessing when you can learn to control them. I was told to use visualization techniques and visualize yourself as a tree with the trunk firmly planted in the ground as this grounds you. You might also try to visualize yourself surrounded by a shield of white protective light coming from your Higher Power. It helps to shield you, ask for protection against any energy that you were not meant to help and that is not for the greater good. These are just a few things I was told to help with my abilities of feeling energies empathically. I wish you all the best. You might also want to use your gift once you can learn how to control the incoming and try to focus some healing thoughts to (for example) your mother's knee. I started helping my husband in the same way when he had to have his leg amputated. He and I both sense each other's pain when it happens whether we are together or not. Good Luck..

Guest guest Posted November 20, 2006 Report Share Posted November 20, 2006 Hi, This is called empathy. One gets a sample of symptoms of the person nearby. I do not know of any solution. ======================== sallyjoe21 wrote: > Hello everyone, > > My problem is that I am very sensitive. For example, my mother has a > knee problem.

I went through the very same thing, but I have desided to use it to help others, I'm into herbs and I use those feelings to help me out. But if it is a problem then , maybe you should practice this gift; by focusing on someone close to you and feeling what they are feeling with out saying anything, ... you chose when you feel their feelings and once you have the hang of it you can block it when you want to. I hope that this helps a little. Blessed be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 21, 2006 Report Share Posted November 21, 2006 Kasey, Hey, I'm a new member to this group. I tend to feel emotions coming from others, rather than their physical pain. What I do is carry certain stones with me to keep me balanced. It may sound strange, but it works, especially when I'm in a large group of people. Your psychic antennae are pulling in too much. I suggest keeping projective stones (as opposed to receptive) within your aura during the day, whether it be jewelry or tumbled stones. If you want to know what stones are projective, Scott Cunningham's book " the Encyclopedia of Crystal, Gem, and Metal Magic " is a great resource. Your local library should carry it. I keep Tiger's Eye and Garnet on me at all times. I love wearing amethyst, but I become super-sensitive when it's around. If you decide you want to try it, I suggest cleaning your stones at least once a week, by placing them in a bowl of salt water overnight. I also suggest charging your stones by moonlight every full moon. When I carry my stones with me, they are in the pocket on the right hand side of my body (where my writing hand is). Whichever hand you write with is your projective hand. You might also want to look into meditation techniques for grounding and shielding. I Hope this helps.
