1.what Is Always In My Presence? 2.what Am I?

Tianna- You are an empath. This has already been discussed.

Spirits are PEOPLE. Real people. Just in spirit body. Likely either your Guardian Angel or a family member or other guide interested in you. Talk to them. High-level guides are always loving and won't try to interfere with your free will. A passed family member is a different situation. They may be confused or just interested... And just want to connect with you.

Treat them as a person. Tell them that if they are a family member, they should go to their spirit home and heal any bad feelings or attachments they have. As they do... They will rise to a new dimension with a nicer home. Many passed spirits stay earthbound either due to emotional attachments to stuff and people on Earth or because they don't like their spirit home. Tell them that they can GROW and EVOLVE and become lighter, happier, and live an AMAZING EXISTENCE as spirit. - but they need to heal any emotional issues they have.

Tell them to read the book... THROUGH THE MISTS... By Robert James Lee. They should be able to read it psychically in a minute or much less - and learn from it that they can GROW and EVOLVE as spirit.

Peace;)

Me and my mom are both empaths. There is a lot of material out there on google about how to disconnect yourself from other people, which is crucial to surviving life as an empath. Another great tactic is what I am trying to do, which is if you pick up someone's energy, send the energy up and down your chakras, cleansing it and then releasing it through the first chakra or the seventh. Even if you don't believe in chakras, just send the energy up and down your body and imagine your body cleansing it and then either send it up straight through your head or down through your tail bone. Shaking or shivering is supposed to be a great way to expel unwanted energy. Try doing that and whatever energy or feelings are leftover might be your own. They also say that epsom salt baths are good to clear all the energy that you pick up through the day, but having tried that, yes the bath is relaxing and maybe that's all you need.

Hope that helps!

Hi there, great post! Sounds to me and all who reads, you are most definitely an Empath. So that means you have to be especially careful when around any individuals as you will pick up their energy. That is not so bad really, gives you a gauge in life on people... Most people would pay dearly to know or feel what the other is, just so they have an idea of what direction to handle them.
I would recommend you take what you have more seriously and fine tune it. Meditation is great... Though it wouldn't require hours, only minutes of quiet time to yourself. Before meditating... Say this to yourself or out loud and envision white light alllll around you.:)

May the White Light of God surround and protect me and mine, any and all negativity being sent will be blocked and returned to sender 10 fold so they will learn of my creators powers, any negativity I create will be cancelled out so it will not hurt me or anyone else and so it must be.

Now...just relax and invite your guides to assist you and help, you are protected by the white light so know that nothing negative will come. Ask that they provide you with a message and be open minded (which is easier said then done most times) either you will get it right then or expect it within days and/or messaging in your dreams.

As to the emotional roller coaster you feel when around people... That same prayer will disburse those energies but in time you will learn to curve them all on your own...

Take care and God Bless

Hi Tianna

I'm fairly new to this of thing but I think maybe a good start to coping with your ability is recognizing the difference between your emotions and those ones that are foreign to you. A bit of a sidetrack here but I have done a bit a research on energy fields/aura as a pastime and from what I can understand everything, all people, object etc. Have an energy field that on some level interacts with their environment and other things, with objects this interaction in quite mundane, but with livings things like people it becomes interesting.

Energy fields or auras can interact and influence one another, they two or more auras can be in harmony with one another or discord, they can attract and repel one another. This is not some mysterious thing though, it simply the mechanism for all interactions, it is the reason we feel awkward or uncomfortable with someone or something, or comfortable with someone you just met. When two people are fighting for example, their energies are apposed and this causes tension in the air you can literally feel. If you've ever been in a group of people and had felt comfortable and calm, that would most likely mean everyone energies were in harmony with one another. It is the subtle interaction of energies that provide the information which our sixth sense abilities interpret.

Empaths tend to be more sensitive or more "in tune" than others with people and energies around them, but this also can make them more vulnerable to the affects of these influences which applies to both positive and negative. For me personally I often find it difficult to pick up on external influences as they are often subtle and strengthen the more time you spend with an individual or a group, but for you I Imagine it would be more obvious. I think it is important that you become familiar your own emotions and how you feel, as well as consciously recognizing how you react to different people or situations. Once you understand your own emotions feel, you can recognize ones that are foreign to you and mentally distance yourself from them.

I can't give much advice on the presence you've being feeling but I would recommend using exercising caution.

Sorry for the long post and good luck!

This just came to me:
Meditation would probably help with your empathic powers. Calming your mind, asking the spirits or angels (if you believe in them) for help, etc. You need to put up a barrier in your mind between which feelings are yours and which feelings aren't.

1: It could be a friendly spirit trying to reach you to help or guide you. I had a similar experience for many years, but the spirit and I became friends and later lovers. Try burning some sage. That'll drive away most spirits, but the benign ones will come back. The bad ones shouldn't. See what happens.

2: I don't know about the telling time thing (which I think is way cool, BTW), but the rest... It sounds to me like you're an empath. Empaths can sense emotions around them, and sometimes mimic them unconsciously. You most likely have an issue with crowds because you copy the feelings of everyone around you. I'm psychometric, and I get that way in museums and thrift shops. Your friend is right, this is a powerful gift, but it's not without its difficulties. There must be a way to supress it, or at least turn it down a notch, so it doesn't interfere with your daily life. Unfortunately, I wouldn't even know where to begin with that. 😢
Best of luck!
