Someone wrote to me talking about how she was feeling so happy, with a heart filled with Light, that she wanted to give it to others who are down. So, she invited someone who was ‘needy’ into her home. The person arrived with ‘crazy energy swirling around’ (her words) and the writer ended up cutting herself because she was so pulled into the negative energy of her guest, that she was inattentive to her task at hand of cutting a piece of fruit. Her full question was actually three fold:
1.Are there certain people we should avoid, or
2.Do we need to confront them right on, or
3.Maybe there’s a way to ‘learn the lesson’ and evolve more gracefully?
Afterwards, her Divine Soul had told her to stay away from the one she invited into her home.
Since these are common questions that I am often asked, I thought I would address them here.
The more centered your are in your own consciousness awareness of the Divine Light within you, the less likely you are to 'take on' the negative energy of another person. This is because you are more able to understand that their negativity is their own drama; one they are playing out for themselves and doesn't have to pertain to you. The moment you feel yourself being asked by someone else to play into their negativity, place your awareness in your heart space, fill it with the conscious awareness of the Divine Light within you and emanate that as you learned in the basic activation of the Divine Light vibration meditation.
Also, in general, if you know someone is in a full fledged negative energy flow, it is generally best to meet them on neutral ground if you can, rather than your home space. If you do find that you have invited a denser vibration into your home space, then, in addition to the technique I just talked about, do the basic activation of the Divine Light Vibration afterwards and refill your home with the more refined vibration. Continue to do that in meditation until you feel you have returned to a more natural state of expansion and conscious awareness of the underlying Divine Love.
Yes, you can share your Divine Light awareness with the other person. It is up to them, and their free choice however, to take it in and dance in that new flow. When I am working with someone and it becomes very apparent that they have no interest in releasing their drama, then I simply acknowledge it and let them go. As much as you would like to assist another person, we must recognize that each flower, and each human being, has their own growing season. I trust that their Divine Soul knows the best way to wake that person up and also knows how to use the Divine Light that I gave them in the best way, and for their highest good. Sometimes, our Light is a simple seed that was planted and won't sprout until we are long gone out of their life.
If you find you are living with a negative person, then it is even more important that you do your own inner work on a daily basis.
There is always a faster, and more graceful, way to learn any lesson: give it/the circumstances to the Light for transformation into illumination and then ask your Divine Soul to reveal to you what it is you need to learn, or understand, from the experience. The more you consciously work with Divine Light for transformation, the more adept you get at allowing It to work.... and the faster and more gracefully you take all learning on board.
That being said, if your Divine Spirit tells you to stay away in the future, then listen to that guidance! Your Divine Soul knows what is best for you. You can help the other person from afar by sending him/her Light while in meditation. You might want to take a look at the entry 'Evolution of Healthy Relationships' on the website. It's under the 'Activating the Alchemy' section. Do that technique and it will help both of you, even if you are not in a ‘relationship’ per se; all humans on the planet are in a relationship with each other, whether we have met or not. Also, I talk about more in depth the characteristics of the expansion and contraction vibrations in the entries ‘All of Creation is in a Constant State of Change’ and ‘Any Emotion Can Be Transformed into Illumination’. Negativity is a very clear form of the ‘gobbler’ attack-and-consume contraction vibration.
About that cut hand. That was a pretty graphic way of getting her attention so she would ask within for guidance, wasn’t it?
As an FYI, in case you haven’t found it yet, the Basic Activation of the Divine Light Vibration can be found in a written form (I just linked it for you) or under the Meditation tab above.
