Welcome to Gaia! ::

I think I might be an empath. I feel all emotions but the worst thing is feeling someone's physical pain. Sometimes i get a tingly tight feeling gripping my heart.

That is not what we are talking about, but I'll be happy to help!!

There are two ways, that I know of, to help - not solve - the 'problem' you are facing... (I use 'problem' cause its really a blessing, just got to learn to use it)

1: You can create a shield to block the 'signals' or fellings from others. Meditate on the fellings and imagine you create a barrier (either a sphere, or something that floats above your skin - you have to decide) using your inner energy. You can use it to 'Filter' out what you don't want, or at least minimise what you fell.

2: Learn to control it directly. You have to learn that yourself, everyone's 'empath abilitys' are diffrent. Meditation is a good place to start. This is more difficult, but has more uses later on. Once you learn to focus it, you can then focus it on a specific source of energy (person, object, ect.). That can be useful when you sence a hostile energy and you need to find where its comming from.

If you pair up #1 with #2, you will have a great defence against 'hostile empaths.'

Hope that helps!! 3nodding

aparently not, any news on the feeling on your side of things?

I have a friend who is empathic, but she is depressed all the time...
i wonder if thats just a bad side-effect eek

About the barrier thing, try using kitchen magic? From what I understand it doesnt draw on your energy. And I have been feeling the energy non-stop but it's not draining my energy, maybe it is directed at you, I dont see why something so powerful would be directed at one person.

Okay, I'm back again, after talking to my cousin and a few of her friends for the last two days taking notes. Here's what they got of the area they thought.

Lexi and about three others went into the cliffs near Las Vegas and The Hover Dam. They stood at one point that was near the Colorado River for atleast three hours. (They took this trip because Kari, the older one can drive ^^; ) They did a three hour meditaion to feel the energys and figure out where their coming from.

@CFV & Light: Light, you were right, after I read that they actually tried to look into it themselves and found yes they are there. And the direction of the energy is coming from middle section of Arizonia and New Mexico.

Lexi however got very sick and lashed out at everyone...they had to take her back to the car but by the time they got her there, she was back to normal and wasnt sure what got her so angry...she couldn't control it.

However Kari seemed to connect it, and by what she said...it's moving. Both directions so thats probably why your feeling it getting stronger...

If I find out anymore I'll post.

In my belief, there has to be a constant equality in the universe... And by universe I do mean everything includeing other planes... It is possable that you are not losing your gift, but that someone is barrowing it (so to speak).

God, I hope im wrong, but perhaps my empath abilitys are getting stronger as yours are getting weaker? Cause, compared to one year ago, it is easily 3x stronger. I can't read minds, but MAN can I fell people emotions. They don't overtake me but boy do they affect me...

Ivy, you might try and meditate on the question and see what answer you can find... If it helps, my name is Bryan Parrish (or Gaian), perhaps that might be able to help with the answer... That is, if we are somehow connected... I really don't know...

@Silver: Thankyou to you and your friends for taking that drive. And, tell your friend I am sorry for the lash of energy that overtook her.

If the energy is spreading AND getting stonger... We got a HUGE problem... But we still dont know exactly what it is...

There is another poster here in the guild who might be able to help... Navacctu... He says his family comes from a background of 'Dark Magic'... I'll contact him and ask him to come and read this post and for him to give his imputs...

@Navacctu: Would you please look through your resources and see if anything appers to you about this...

i am not navacctu but i may be of assistence.
