Re: Smudging your home with sage...

Jules5280, there was nothing wrong with mistriTsquirrel's post, none at all. But because you have a history of fighting with her you assumed she posted that with some sinister purpose, yet all she was doing was sharing a story about her brother's home and the possibility of it being haunted. Why are you so upset with that? I really think you attract bad energy and it's not your home that needs "saging" but it's you and if you're to release the negative energy from your home, you really should start with yourself. It's like there's a good Jules that is so likable and a bad Jules that takes over you sometimes. You're fighting a battle within yourself.

Raven, you can defend Mistri, that is fine. Not sure you are aware of the history between us... keep in mind, I didn't seek her out.

the history you speak of........think about it Jules........you're wanting to get rid of negative energy in your life.........wouldn't that "history" be one of the negative things you would want the sage to attach itself to and cleanse you of

no one seeks anyone out here on this board Jules......it's far too small and too concentrated, too limited, to feel you're being sought out.......she brought a bit of her life experience to this thread......that's not an evil thing.......or a "me me" thing......it was her sharing her thoughts, a bit of her story...........some people in some cultures would look at that as a supreme act of sharing, and in those cultures you would not be viewed as a good host

I'm sure you've been told or have read, by now, when doing a smudging ceremony the first thing you must do is purify yourself........so you are the first thing that must be smudged......you must remove the negativity from yourself FIRST before you ask the creator to remove it from where you reside...........it's an act of charity, asking the creator to do this for you.....you can't ask for what you don't live............................raven

Raven, you are very wise and make good points, but on that I must disagree. I have seen it time and again... many posters stalk and harass others, or seek them out to torment. If you had a person here that you continually could not get along with, would you continue to seek them out, or would you choose to leave them alone? When I went to Mistri's thread, I was bashed and harassed and called all sorts of names. With her it's a one-way street, her way. I left her alone, but I guess it's okay for her to still find a way to lecture me? I no longer care. I find her passive-aggressive tactics really tiresome. She always finds a way to drop a bomb then twist it around so that she looks like she delivered sunshine and gumdrops. Once again, she has derailed a topic.

As for me, if or when I decide to do a saging, I will make sure my heart, mind and spirit are in a place to make it most effective. I appreciate your thoughts, and it's nice that you are her champion.

Thanks Doctor Shrink, please be sure to send me your bill. I just love people who analyze other people they know nothing about.

Think I've received all the helpful advice I will possibly get from this thread. Now it will just become a bash Jules topic or poor Mistri who is never wrong. Thanks to all for the informative links, it's been an interesting topic.

Your reply to me doesn't come as a surprise. When you're angry you usually resort to childish name calling or you take someone's siggy and throw it to their face in a fit of spite. It's just so typical of you.

Yet you come here and talk about smudging your home. It's not your home's fault for your problems.{#emotions_dlg.laugh}

Jules.........I have spent many years on "the boards"............I have fought many wars and in the process grown a very thick skin.......but the one thing I have learned that was of supreme value and has served me well on the boards as well as off... is this..........no one has any power over you unless you grant them it...........the power to anger you........to miff you off......to make you laugh........to make you cry.............those choices are yours.

I'm not trying to "champion" Mistri...........actually, in my own way, I'm trying to champion you..........although you make it difficult at times Smile

on the stalking.............how do you stalk someone in a crowded elevator..........................raven

Re: Smudging your home with sage...

I have been debating the idea of chiming in, so here I am. I learned a very valuable lesson the day I followed you for several hours and told you off. I not only let myself look bad, but I hurt your feelings more. When I apologized I meant everything I said and that very public humiliation made me stop and think about me as a person. I enjoy talking to Mistri and I do feel very badly for her lot in life. I enjoy reading your posts too. You both are very knowledgable and I learn new things. What I'm trying to say is, it is nt worth the frustration and upset to continue letting words affect you. We all read a sentence in our own way and take a emotion into our heart. I physically get ill when I lose control. You have a right to interpret what you read, but like I did, you don't have the option to hurt feelings to make a point. Please reconsider your thoughts about this post. I know you will do the right thing. Moon
