Are you an Empath?
Have you ever wondered why you can walk in to a room and feel sad, or maybe you feel over joyed, a feeling that you wasn't feeling before you entered is now there and your not sure why but you feel it.
You tend to attract animals, babies may stare at you, smile at you babble to you out of everyone around, it seems to be you.
Can you feel someone's emotions or pain?
don't know how to explain it but I have felt this pain in my side all day since I met up with you this morning and then suddenly that person says yeah well welcome to my world I have had a pain in the same side since yesterday...
Sounds weird but its a very real thing.
Empathic people can easily tune into the energy around them sometimes without even realising that's what they are doing, if there are a roomful of people and someone is upset we feel it ourselves and we might not even know who it is feeling that way just yet we just feel it.
Its not always fun being someone that can bare other peoples feelings, emotions and even physical pain but it is a gift a blessing if you will, we are the natural healers of the world and in this world right now we have a lot of work on our hands but we must remember to sit and rest a while too.
How do you refuel as an empath?
Well I like to turn to nature, I am always drawn to where ever there are trees and lots of them, usually you will find silence there and that's where I can still my mind and just reconnect for a little while. I choose to disconnect from everything and reconnect when the times right, I will visit any where there are animals, huge animal lover here, dogs cats goats sheep bunnies il take them all, animals have a soul that is pure and they can help us to drain everything away and rebuild the good energy we need, as empaths have the ability to feel more deeply we can often mistake someone else's feelings for our own and keep on living with those feelings it can get a bit confused as to what we feel is just us or someone or something else, so we must cleanse, nature and animals for me is a great place to start, but remember to always cleanse your living space and self too, we can use herbs to cleanse which I love to do by the way, pass me the sage, the lavender anything that I can burn I will.
Why do empaths attract a certain person?
I struggle sometimes with people because they can be so nasty selfish and draining, it took me forever to learn and understand the importance of protecting our energy especially from the 'the energy vampires' these come in the form of Narcissists, mostly negative controlling people and people that are generally just unaware of even themself.
Pay close attention to people you are around, you should never feel drained, tired or down in the dumps after being around someone so if you do believe me they are energy vampires, drain you so they can carry on living.
WARNING, empaths naturally attract Narcissists, they are drawn to our gentle energy, our nature of helping is appealing to them because we can get easily over powered if we are not protecting ourselves well enough!
I have attracted a lot of these personality traits in my time, but don't get it twisted just because I like to help and heal don't think I won't call you out on your bull! I guess you could call me a dark empath, I can mirror your own energy, I can happily turn my back and walk away from anyone that does not serve my energy well or misuse my energy, it will not go unnoticed, so Narcissists are always weary of this kind of person, we have the ability to single them out and they hate it.
How to spot a Narcissist.
You will usually find a Narc in a crowd of people and usually the people that surround them think they are amazing, kind, helpful and in general just a 'nice guy' to be around now look, some people are genuinely like this but a narc is someone that acts this out but in reality, they are generally very controlling not always violent but verbally violent is a trait, they could be 'complimenting' you especially in front of other people (again they love to look good in front of others) but then they will say something to put you down when no one else is around, so it could be "you look beautiful tonight" and then quietly "its a shame you didn't put a bit more effort into you hair though" an insult usually follows a compliment.
They love control, and if they loose control over you they will control how everyone else sees you, for example, dirtying your image, they could speak to your friend and say they are a good person but my god when she's at home and has a drink she gets really mad, they will do this for a while and by doing that it wont validate anything you say when you speak out.
Don't just assume this is a partner, Narcissists come in all forms, best friends, family, partner they are all around us and it comes down to years of learning and mostly experience to spot them quickly disengage and remove them, honestly when you stand strong they usually leave on their own because they will not get from you what they need, I will shadow them, say they try to quietly insult me (I have had this happen before now a few times) I will happily call it out there and then and say come on say it loud and proud let us all here, by making a mockery out of them they will fade very quickly and even leave,
I have met people that I have just an instant disliking for, listen to those feelings this is usually your gut feeling telling you to be careful, they will interact with me and I will be very 'off' always polite but very off with them, watch how they stare at you, its a tell tale sign they are remaining cautious because your reaction to their bullshit is not what they had hoped for, they may even ask around for details about you to see if they can discredit you to 'get their own back'
As a person that can feel more deeply know that I would not wish harm to anyone but I do always say, “be what you deserve” what you throw out you catch back and if you are a person with ill intent I can only hope you will always receive what you put out to others,
listen, I'm just a crystal loving moon watching sage burning hippy witch, one that will help when and where I can, but never get it twisted, I am a “modern” hippy witch, I'm not standing around and taking anyone's bull, I will always stand up for the people that need a hand, I will give my time and energy to anyone that is worthy of it, I will always stop to give the bee on the ground that's tired a drink, I pick up snails off the pathways and find them a home safe in the shrubs so they don't get stepped on, instead of buying expensive makeup and material things I buy bird food and watch happily as they sort through it to find the best peanut, I save the struggling fly caught in the spiders web that already has fly's wrapped up in its silk, I plant flowers for the bees and butterflies to make a home, I always stop to fuss the cat over the road, I buy the chocolate for the boy in the shop because his mum cant afford it I do these things because that's just who I am and I will never apologise for it, No one can destroy that person when you know who you are and you can stand in the face of anyone that try's to make you different, embrace the empathy inside, we are not weak we are so needed in this world right now.
We just need to remember who we are, and we don't ever let anyone tell us different.
All my love
yours Truly
