I received Emotional Intuitive from the quiz posted, and it fits me absolutely. When I was practicing my own jedi path more regularly I learned to keep my emotions under control and not let the emotions of others overwhelm me. Its always something I will need to keep working on, and my ability to do so has certainly waned since I took a break for school and things. I dislike overreacting and things or getting weepy and emotional for no reason, or for not even being able to make it through an argument where despite how calm and rational I am, I am crying at the same time. I literally have to reassure people sometimes that it’s just my reaction to any emotional situation and that they should ignore it. It becomes very hard for people to take me seriously.

My emotional awareness is a great gift though. Between my own observational skills that i have honed over the year and my emotional intuition, I can both understand a person’s point of view and emotional state while seeing the actual situation, and do what i can to remedy their problems, or at least understand their actions. It makes it very difficult to dislike anyone when you know how they are feeling and why they act the way they do, which is a quality i like about myself- the ability to not truly dislike anyone. I can be angry at them, or not like what they are doing, but it rarely becomes personal. What i need to work on is re-building my emotional barriers. I’ve learned my lesson to not purposefully take on all this emotional weight, now I need to relearn how to keep my own emotions controlled and separate from those i pick up from people around me.

I have performed the related meditation to my type twice now, and have had less success than I would have liked. The second time was productive though. Afterwards i felt cleansed and much more aware of myself and my own feelings and thoughts. It took me a while to actually stay in this place, as usually my visualization meditations sort of spawn from my own imagination and therefore are easier for me to imagine, but once I was there, it worked pretty well. I focused on the beam of light penetrating the storm and breaking it up, calming the waves and the clouds. It was quite lovely actually. I will continue to attempt this periodically as I get more into my own mediation practice. I didn’t realize how rusty I was. My mind is once again filled with monkeys. :P It will be an enjoyable challenge to take on.

Much love,

Testing?

This seems to work. Nice. Now to get cracking. :)

As a note, I will also copy my training journal posts here when I remember so as not to lose them in case something happens to the beautiful new website. *knocks on wood*

Much love,
