Spiritual Sensitivity of the Highly Sensitive Person

HSPs are sensitive to sensory stimuli like light, sound, scents, touch, emotions, and everything coming at us externally. And, I believe we are highly sensitive to everything internal too, and beyond. One consistant trait that I see in each of my HSP clients is a very high sense of integrity. We care about doing the right thing at all times, and if we are betrayed by someone with dishonesty it hurts like a sword. We are honest and find it extremely hard to justify anything less. I beleive this is a trait from a higher plane than earth. I believe this indicates a higher calling in the service of Divinity.

I studied transpersonal psychology which includes the spiritual aspect of us because I've always known that we are so much more than what is evident. We go beyond this empirical form. We are not only our bodies, though our bodies are very important, we are spirit in human form. (Our bodies are the vehicle of our soul and we can access our divine wisdom through body awareness, but that's another blog.)

We are souls living as humans beings, or as Pierre Teilhard de Chardin said, "we are not human beings having a spiritual experience; we are spiritual beings having a human experience".  I've always felt this. My earliest memories are feeling like I didn't belong in a three demensional plane as I yeared for the safety and freedom of an expansiveness that I could remember but not explain, then later experienced again in a shared death experience.

Because we are each a divine being; a soul, a conduit to spirit, that on some level we haven't forgotten, or denied, we are feeling the dissonance of being a sacred limitless energy confined to a physical body in a limited world. Not only in a limited world but in today's violent and cruel world. Of course we're sentitive. It would be odd to be oblivious to it. Our souls are crying out for the comfort of the familiar love of the Source of Creation: Divinity, the energy of LOVE. Perhaps those that aren't as sensitive have turned off this channel to the divine and don't have access to it, or never did. (I believe this is the case with dark personalities. A topic for future blogs.)

Consider our sensitivity as our soul crying out for peace, acceptance, comfort and an environment that encourages a higher alignment with love and harmony. Yes, we're physically sensitive, and so much more. We're souls in human bodies that are too small, limited, stiff, confining, and uncomfortable. We're not designed to endure the harsh realities of small minds, cruelty and abuse. We're designed for love. Perhaps our soul is trying to convey the importance of being present and still to listen to what you need. Do you need to create a softer, kinder, & gentler environment that supports your sensitive soul? This is one reason that it's important to support ourselves with mindfulness and conscious breath; it brings us into peaceful presence and we can hear the whispers of our soul. I believe our souls are trying to speak to us through our sensitivity and we do well to listen. I believe that our souls are trying to process all the harsh external stimuli that results in the immense internal discomfort that we experience and help us to understand our divinity. I'm listening. I'd be honored to help you listen too, so if you're ready to tune in to your soul I'm ready to listen. Please send me a note and we'll set up a time to connect.

So, I make it my practice to listen to the whispers of my soul and the practical needs of my body through meditation, breath, and movement. And to help navigate this life path I recently had the pleasure of meeting with Rebecca Crane, a colleague of mine from graduate school, that confirmed and validated these sensitive traits in me. It's all there in my charts. She gave me an astrological and Human Design reading that helped me understand and confirm aspects of myself that I've been pondering in my mind, yet sure of in my soul. She showed me how the stars are guiding me into evolutionary growth, and then explained how my Human Design confirms it. it shows that I'm Love and must listen to my intuition. It was fascinating and informative and as I listened to the recording today I wanted to share it with you. It's no mistake that you're here.

If you've been wondering how an astrological reading might serve your growth I recommend booking a reading with her to learn about your chart and human design too https://rebeccacrane.com.
