Empath vs The Narcissist

Just my opinion.....

Dear Tarot Friends

Many people who are sensitive to energy are people who tend to have time to listen to others, to understand others and to be loving and kind to others but they also have a tendency to attract narcissistic partners.

What is a narcissist....a clinically diagnosed personality disorder characterized by a grandiosity, a need for admiration, and a lack of empathy toward other people.

In short, it's someone who believes they're better than everyone else.

If you find that your partner is undermining your thoughts, your ideas and your own opinion then you need to acknowledge these red flags. You will find that a partner like this, would start to undermine your friendships, checking your phone, wanting to control how you spend your time, they will want to keep you occupied and focused only on themselves. They will find fault with your friends and your family. They will be rude or antagonist towards your friends and family. People who are close to you will speak up about these red flags. However, remember that the narcissists objective is to isolate you from your friends and family. Sometimes the empath becomes so caught up with mind games that they stay in a relationship with the narcissist. Sometimes thinking that they can help them or change them but all that happens is that you will find yourself isolated and having the narcissist as the only person who is in your space.

You need to be conscious of yourself and what it is that you attract to yourself. You need to take time to analyze your own behavior and attitudes. Very often, we accuse others of being narcissistic but in fact, you could be the passive bully. Too often, when people come to me for their readings they describe themselves as victims-and in some cases they are....but sometimes the client's behavior and attitude to their struggles suggests a passive bully, unreasonable entitlement issues and also ideas of grandiosity.

The dynamic of narcissistic behaviors starts in childhood and continues as we grow and as we adopt these behaviors and ways of thinking. Most of us grew up with parents that where always right even when they were wrong! Today you see a modernized version of the previous generation walking around. This needs to change.

We need to become the change that we want to see. It starts with us.

Remember to:

Have gratitude

Take time for meditation

Take time to communicate with your Higher Power

Have value for yourself

Just for today, take care of yourself, your mind, your thoughts, your actions and your reactions. Each day is a new day...and have your mantra....just for today
