Before I go on, yes this is about cards and not about me reading to alot of people.

I noticed this alot of times, but it only happens mostly when I read on this specific person.

Usually when I read people on here I could take 2-3 people and then take a break but I really didn't feel too tired. When I read on this one person I just completely fell tired. I read on this person last night and I just felt like I was exhausted. I mean I didn't even pull out the cards and I just felt tired (I usually focus and try shuffling at the same time). I didn't feel anything negative but I felt like I ran a mile run. .

This morning I asked my friend to give me a question so I could practice. I felt good, I didn't feel tired or anything like that. So I read on the other person from last night again, I felt tired, I felt like I was running out of breath. It reminded me of the feeling I felt last year, my energy was just taken a way from me... (It wouldn't go away). It didn't felt negative, but it was draining. This time I asked my friend to give me another question to compare on if it's just me or may be it was the person energy. Again I read for my friend, I felt okay, I didn't felt tired..So I thought to myself it had to be the other person energy.

Is this normal for someone to make someone drain like that? I didn't do a big reading after all, but I knew that it was strange to feel that.

This could be a crazy question, but the more I learn, the better.

ILP, some people, often through no fault of their own, draw energy from others. Maybe they are able to psychically tap into your energy. You have something that they need, or they are in a very unhappy state.

You need to steer clear of people who do that to you. Or find a way to shielding yourself. Anyhow when you connect for a reading, it becomes very difficult to shield from their vampiric energy - so best not to read for them at all. However, try imagining yourself in a light bubble or a purple glass pyramid (these are meant to be good shielding devices) before you connect to someone. Try experimenting with different forms. Do you have a particular affiliation with an angelic being? Call on Archangel Michael to draw his light around you so you are protected. This should work.

It's pretty simple, you should avoid reading/exchanging with the person.

In my experience, it's usually because the person is desperate for hope (not very good energy around them), or is an energy leach. I feel 'off' for a couple of days after reading for certain people, so I avoid it. I read to help people and it costs me little- however when I get exhausted because I need to swim through toxic energy, it stops being worth it.

It's something to do with empathy/clairsentience. You pick up on that person's feeling and it drains you because there's something clashing with your energies.

Can you accurately "guess" someone's mood without them telling you? For example..I was talking to 2 friends online - HS friends. One of them was feeling scared, nervous, etc. I picked up on those feelings without him telling me. I asked him -- "Are you feeling scared, or nervous?" out of nowhere and his reply was yes because he got assaulted.

The other person was on drugs -- and I asked her "Are you high? because I feel a certain way right now.." and she was shocked that I Was able to tell.

It's a feeling that just gets transferred to your body and you just know that feeling doesn't belong to you at all because there's no reason or cause for you to be feeling that certain way..

My sister drains all of my energy when she's around...I have to leave her side many times. She loves asking for my help constantly and talks so much..and she comes across to me as an insecure and not as genuine as she pretends to be.

When I was in a relationship with the father of my kids and when he was around I'd feel depressed and dragged down, but when he was off at work or some place else, I'd feel better.

Hope this is helpful

Sadly no I don't have anything lol. I read about shielding just now but some people don't want to agree with that for whatever reasoning. I never really had to shield but after this, I see why people say "This person drains me, I can't read for you".

I'll probably just imagine surround myself with a light protective bubble. thank you.

It's funny that you said that. There was this one girl that read on this person and she felt this negative energy around him.. he's not bad but it's like there's something going on for her to pick that up.. but she was an empath. But I guess I gotta watch out for that. Thanks Mincey!

Hi Poems

I've had these experiences, There have been times when i did a reading for someone then i woke up in the middle of the night having a panic attack, or sometimes i feel bleh for a day or too when i read for people. I could feel their anxieties. You should stop reading before you start to feel tired, and avoid reading for people who make you feel drained. Take a break for few days at a time, ground yourself. Reading for yourself also uses your energy.

It's really good to want to help people, but you also need to take good care of yourself. Eat healthy food and keep yourself hydrated. I find walking outside in the park helpful for me too.

Thanks, that does help. I can't say I'm an Empath, but this wasn't the first time that I felt this way when I was around him. There was time where I would feel drained and felt like someone was actually taking my energy away from me. I knew that it was bad for me because I would seem like I couldn't do anything but just sit or just lay down.

It's also a surprise to me that I haven't actually had anyone that I read on, that I felt this before yet. So It only seems that this happens to him, I also knew that there is something going on with him too emotionally.

I do used to guess people's emotions and then they get offended so I stopped lol.

I do have to say that being empathy seems to be cool but also it can be a curse

Thanks! I never experienced draining like this though. I read for so many people and I never felt anything excerpt for when I read alot on different people.

Are you empathy?

Hey Poems yes I believe so, I think i remember a thread where i discussed the same thing, i think you might have responded to it. I'm more careful about now how many readings i do and who i do them for in any given time. I need to learn to control my empathy first, its there for a purpose.
