Question
Hi There,

     I have a question about spiritual energy.  I recently went to a funeral and saw family members who I haven't seen in quite some time.  During this day I had very weird interactions with people.  I have had two male cousins flirt with me and tell me they loved me and that if I ever feel like being a cousin isn't an issue to give them a call!  I have had this experience with women as well in my family, they tell me that it makes them feel warm inside to just be near me.  

      I have had a lot of readings the person always mentioned that I have a very bright light within me.  One person told me all he could see was bright light when he tried to look at me.  Is this reason for attracting proposals from cousins who know we cannot be together in that way?  Lol.  

     I have had this happen before and tried to explain to the person what they were experiencing was not genuine.  It did not go well.  What is going on?

Thanks

Answer

Dear Rhonda,

Thanks for reaching out.  Here's my take and you can decide whether this resonates with you or not.  You are a bright light, a divine being.  We all are.  Some of us show light more easily than others.  When folks see a bright light, they want to be near it.  Some shy away because it feels so different, but many others are attracted.

Many times men are attracted to the light and it becomes confused with sexual attraction.  BTW, that can happen with women as well.  They can't quite explain why they want to be near you and so the ego comes up with a good reason- they've got the hots for you.  

Trying to explain to someone why their feelings are not genuine rarely goes well.  It's like when my child is cranky and I ask them if they are tired (because those two usually go together) and he gets angry.  He feels like his feeling was dismissed.

What people are experiencing is real to them so don't try to explain to them what's going on.  

Here's the other part of my take in this.  You are a magnificent Creator (like all of us) and you have created this interesting situation of people being attracted to your light in all sorts of ways.  

In other words, what we create is all an illusion.  If it feels uncomfortable, seize that time to see the illusion, dive into the feelings, and reclaim your power from the illusion.  

You are a bright light.  Let it shine. Don't worry about the attractions- it is all an illusion anyway.  Focus on being the bright light and know that you are creating this wonderful journey.

Have compassion for others.  Enjoy the light.  

Hope this helps.

peace,
Rita

Expertise

I can answer questions about abundance, the law of attraction, peace, and love. My passions are about how to access the Higher Self/Source, spiritual development, relationships. I can't answer questions about how your future will turn out.

Experience

I have gone through my own spiritual transformation and am a coach and teacher to many women, especially mothers, who are seeking a better connection to Source and joy in their lives. I was living a life of quiet desperation as a suburban mother of three, when I hit a big crisis. I had read and learned from metaphysical teachers about how to connect with who you really are before, but until I hit bottom, I didn't really understand. I then started to work with a coach and studied many teachers when I had a transformation that led to my inspiration to help others.

Publications
http://www.ezinearticles.com, Inner Realm magazine, The Motherlode magazine. I have authored a book and online course called "Extraordinary Abundance: Ten Simple Ways to Uncover the Richness of Your Life" and the CD "The Forest Meditations"

Education/Credentials
I have a Masters of Social Work from Columbia University and a 10 year career working with women focusing on helping them reach their potential. I have read extensively about the Law of Attraction, accessing the Now, belief work, releasing techniques, accessing peace and abundance. I had used this material on myself and others with amazing results.

Past/Present Clients
Most of my clients are mothers who are searching for a deeper,more meaningful life for themselves and their families. I also work with women and men who are looking for guidance and support with personal and business issues.
