Really need help here

[Anonymous]

I live near a cross section of two lay lines, so as you can imagine the energies round here are pretty....weird as it is,  but recently there's been a an awful lot of negative energies floating about, people at each others throats, edgyness, uneasyness, and my 'familiar' i could say, has begun frequenting my dreams again, which hasn happened since just before my grandfather died.

This time however it isn't just me having this, all the local pagans and suchlike are feelign it too,  i was wondering
a)whats going on
b) if anyone else is experiening this elsewhere in the world and
c)if anything can be done, or do we jes sit back and try to ride it out?

The power of suggestion is an amazing thing. Somewhere along the line someone said that they were feeling "weird" and two friends agreed. And two friends agreed with those two friends and so on and so forth.

I suggest that what you are experiencing is nothing more than the usual pre-holiday stress and a powerful imagination. It will pass. These things usually do.

I stand by my comments. And you are a n00b here. All of two posts today. If you had any idea how many variations of this question are posted on a regular basis, you would know that my answer is the best you may get.
 
I have been to ley lines. The Earth Power there is palatable. But it is only power. You decide what it feels like for yourself.

Ya really want to experience negative energy, pookie?

Show up from out of nowhere with no introduction or so much as a "hello".  Ask a question that indicates you've read the cover flaps of a couple books laying around the library, then blow crap at the only person that takes your silliness seriously enough to offer an answer.

Yeah......... that'll get you off to a real flying start.

If you're going to get pissy if you don't get the answer you want, then don't ask the question to begin with.  We're not here to placate goofballs.

Being a n00b has very little to do with it.  If someone with 600 posts asks a bad question, they get a bad answer.

I would suggest that the best way to deal with feeling this way is to make sure that your personal shields and your wards around where you live and properly constructed and strengthened to keep these feelings away from you.  If the energies in your area really are out of sync then dealing with your own response to it is about the best you can do.

Personally I doubt this has anything to do with the ley lines.  Those are currents of earth power and seldom produce feelings such as you describe.

The problem with the situation you're talking about is that it can feed on itself.  Someone feels that something is "negative" or "wrong" with the local energies.  They tell someone else, who then tells someone else and like a bad cold the idea spreads through a community.  You went to Manchester where you weren't expecting to feel like that...and you didn't.  You came back here where you were already expecting to feel it...and you did.  So it's hard to tell at this point whether anything really is wrong...or whether it is a creation of someones unfounded worries.

In any case, the best way to deal with it remains being able to properly shield yourself from the energies that might be out there.

Hmm, thank you lark for a nice answer.

To the rest of ya, YAH BOO SUCKS

I mod on enough forums to know the hassle new people get on boards, but i was at my last resort, and tbh, i have never seen this message posted anywhere else, or in any books, so if you could point them out i'd be grateful, maybe i can derive better answers from that.

You dont seem to be getting the thing though really, i suppose you'd have to be here to understand. It probably isn't anything to do with the ley's running throuh here, could just be the way people have been behaving towards each other bouncing bad negs.

What i was really wondering is if its happening, we've all been close close friends for years, and never had anything as bad as this before, we most of are craftwise, and have invoked protection against it, but it's more than just a single person.

If anyone has some REAL advice, other then STFU NOOB, i'd appreciate it


And ok, introduce myself? I'll go and post in the introductions forum, seeing as this isn't the right place.

NO, I don't really think you want advice.  You seem much more interested in confirmation.  You aren't going yo find that around here.  We tend to be a bunch of down to earth folks who like to exhaust all mundane possibilities in a situation before we start running around yelling the sky falling.

[Anonymous]

Ok, so i get that possibly it isnt anything to do with the ley lines, its more likely ourselves causing the neg vibes.

But why now all of a sudden?

[Lark]

If you think that it's possible that the negativity is something that has started in your group then try backtracking to see if you can figure out what started it.  You say it started several months ago.  When did you first notice it?  What was happening in your lives right then?  Did someone lose a job?  Did someone end a relationship?  Did someone leave your group under less than friendly terms?  In other words, see if you can't figure out what might have been the trigger that first introduced some negativity into your group about the time that you began to feel there was a problem.

If you can identify a mundane trigger within the group for this situation, then you have a specific thing to work on instead of a general feeling of unease.

If it looks still as though the problem is coming at you from outside the group then you will need a different sort of working to sever the ties to it than you do if it is from within.  That's why it is important to sit down and try to figure out where this might be coming from.  It's a bit of a detective hunt but worth it in the end.

Well you see thats where the confusion comes in, we looked at that, but nothing negative has happened really, selina went to london, but that was great, she's studying what she wants, is happy there and we're happy for her, doga got a job, which is obviously a very good thing, and hayley gave birth to a happy healthy baby, and she hasn't got the baby blues, so we really cant think.

Hmmm, could it be that it is the very fact that your group is growing apart that is causing the sadness/negativity?  If I am reading this correctly, you were a very close group of friends.  Now one has gone off to London, one has obligations of a new job...one has a family with new baby.  Things are changing, and change is always traumatic.  Perhaps this itself could be the root of the problem.

One thing I have noticed with many groups and communitys over the years is that they tend to have a natural life cycle. When they are working, the feel is great, but there comes a time when the energys of the group suddenly change. This can often be either caused by a change in the individuals involved OR actualy signal a change about to occur.

Whilst there is a chance that there is some outside componant causing the change of energys you are picking up on, it is far more likely that as some of the other replies have implied, be stemming from the group itself. Not neccessaraly something negative, but simply the discord around a time of change.

I doubt it..it could be, but the rest of us are a lot closer, we're lot closer now haylers had the baby, we're always round there, he's so cute And for the job means we can see them more they have more money.

I suppose sel was close though. It could just be something we're all going through, but one of them said the other day another group  of craftwise she speaks to were having the same thing happen, and they're not from round here.
