Spiritual Bullying

If you are a person of power, it is even more important that you mind what you think, say, and do.   A hurtful thought or act can be devastating from someone who works with spirit and energy.  Especially if it is directed to someone who does not know how to (or even that they should) protect themselves energetically.  At the same time, some people who have been practising for a while also know the typical energetic barriers used and can get through general energetic defenses - even if it is done subconsciously.

Try to be unique in your protection symbolism so that others cannot bypass your defenses.  If you like, in a meditation, ask your spirit guides to help you pick something unique.

Just because someone is spiritual, it does not mean that they do not have an ego.  We are all human and have emotions including jealously, resentment, and fear.  Some people do not even realize that they are bullying others as a result.

You may not be calling someone names, but things like exclusion (purposely not including someone in a group activity), gossip, and making an inappropriate scene about someone in a group setting are all forms of bullying.  They are hurtful regardless but can really damage someone if it comes from someone of power.

Being spiritual and working with energy is a responsibility not to be taken lightly.  You no longer have the luxury of random thoughts and feelings.  You can really cause some damage to someone if you are not careful.

Points to consider:

• The next time someone does not meet your expectations, spend some time evaluating your own belief systems and do not judge others.  
• If someone is a negative force in your life, focus on the positive of that person or remove them from your life if necessary (physically and energetically) - do not fuel a fire.
• What you focus on, you create
• When you think about someone, you create or strengthen an existing energetic cord with them.  Any negativity can be harmful to the both of you and manifest in negative emotions and even physical or mental disease over time.
• You are responsible for your own actions, thoughts and words.  If you need help, ask your spirit guides to help guide your actions, thoughts and words for the highest and best.
