Dear EveryOne,The week before PMS, my moods take a dramatic turn and always catch me by surprise. I feel like crying, screaming, depressed, lost, and insecure. The worst of it is getting angry and bitingly sarcastic with the ones I love  It takes me several moments before I catch on that its the hormone change and it always surprises me that it regular every month. Does anyone else experience this? I am thinking of using Wild Yam Extract Cream, but am not sure. I was advised by a friend not to take any allopathic hormone synthetics. :-/  Aphrodite IP: Logged |

I do actually Aphrodite but not necesarily every month (especially the screaming and especially all of it). But this also happens to me sometimes when I'm not having PMS. I believe that a woman's period is, among other things, a monthly spiritual cleansing as well as physical, I've heard others allude to this. I've also noticed that when I have severe emotional trauma, my period will come that day even if it is too early. But when I keep myS-elf centered for a month or most of the month, (which is hard to do) that these symptoms are greatly decreased. Do these symptoms occur after a trying period or regardless of occurences? Also are you particularly sensitive to spirits and/or vibes and stuff? Let me know  IP: Logged |

I sympathise with you!! I used to suffer all of that when I was taking the pill (a few years ago). I have tried evening primrose oil lately and it has been a godsend!! I'm not sure if it works for everyone but it serves me exceptionally well!!!Apart from that I make sure there are lots of nice foods in the cupboards (especially desserts) and some quality alone time for meditation and chakra cleansing.

Hi Silverbells and RubyRedRam,I am sensitive to vibes and see auras too. I did keep malachite stones on myself for centering and cleansing, but I proved to be far too lazy to maintain them in my pockets for too long. I usually know how people are going to be within the first few meetings. It's strange. It's even more apparent when I look at charts. The chakras cleansing sounds great. My friend has offered a free 1 1/2 session on any healing techniques she does, one of which is chakras balancing. However, I believe I will ask if she would use that free session to teach me something that I may do on myself. Basically, teach me to fish instead of giving me the fish. What do you think?

I think that that is a good idea. You should be able to do something to cleanse youself, I think you would learn so much about yourself and others (as with most matters) when you know the sources of the different things that are pressing you and why they are doing so and how to rectify them and why these methods are working. Basically what I am trying to say is that when you have the cause, the "cure" is just waiting for you to see it (as they are both connected). I have noticed that people who say that they are sensitive to vibes or auras or presences or all have rather interesting comments on their menstral cycles. Go for the fishing lessons

Wild yam is reasonably nontoxic. ------------------

The week of PMS for me is always hell. My already passionate and emotional self is just a whirlwind of emotion during that time. I cry, I'm grumpy, I'm ecstatic, I fall to pieces, I yell. I really don't anything to remedy it 'cept riding the week out.Honestly, I don't want to stop it. I've learned to try and not project it onto others. But I'm one who doesn't even like to take painkillers for my cramps. Every part of having my period makes me feel like a woman, and empowered in some way; even if I'm miserable. Someday when I'm older and can no longer have them, I know I will miss them. I try to enjoy even that seemingly uncomfortable few days because it is a sacred thing - a part of life, a part of me that is ruled by the Moon itself. If you take a moment and let yourself feel it, you will feel - through the pain and emotions - a certain sort of power, as if the energy of the Earth itself is moving through you. Perhaps it's just me, though. Aphrodite: I, too, am an empath. When I was young I was just a mess of emotions, but I have learned to block out all of the signals coming to me from others except when I want to tune in. I think it is so wonderful that you can see auras - it is something I truly want to remember how to do! Were you born with this special ability, or did you develop it over time? ------------------
The unseen, the unknown, the mystery - this is what drives me; propels me forward on new journeys as dark corners of my mind are lit with the evergrowing bright light of my enlightened soul. - me IP: Logged |
