Baggage. We hear
that term tossed around alot, dont we? …. but what is it? How do we get it?
Most importantly, how do we get rid of it? As we go through our daily
lives, stuff happens. Sometimes its big, bad stuff. Hopefully, that does not
happen very often. But it does, and it leaves it mark on us. Or it can leave
its mark on a loved one. How this *stuff* effects us might not be readily
apparent right away, but with time we may see some behavior pattern or reaction
or even overreaction to something that might raise an eyebrow. Sometimes, we
might feel like the picture above, dragging our past along into our future.
That slows us down and can keep us from achieving our goals.

Not all
baggage is relationship based, by any means. But many of us here are working on
relationship issues, and it seems to be a common topic.

Almost everyone today who has
experienced a failed relationship is carrying around some degree of emotional
baggage. The problem with these left over feelings is that they are usually
negative in nature, causing fears and
doubts that carry over into future relationships. This can very well sabotage
relationships that would otherwise have long term potential. The tricky thing
about emotional baggage is that most of us do not realize that we are carrying
it even after it has presented itself time and time again within our romantic
relationships. It is essential to learn how to recognize our own emotional
baggage in order to enjoy healthy and happy relationships in the future.

Emotional baggage occurs when we experience a hurt within a
relationship and that hurt is not resolved or dealt with. We then internalize
those negative feelings and develop fears that we may or may not be aware of.
When we then go onto the next relationship, these same fears and negative
emotions trigger negative or irrational thoughts and behaviors within us. These
behaviors then have a negative impact on the new relationship. Instead of
protecting you from having the original hurtful experience repeat itself, these
behaviors can actually cause that experience to recur time and time again. The
fears and hurt feelings only then grow and now become justified within your own
mind as correct. This creates a cycle that you then feel unable to escape from
in your romantic life.

 

How  can we stop the cycle? Lots of ways….there are traditional
ways,  like therapy, self examination, journaling, talking to a close
friend or relative. Really becoming aware of recurrent thoughts, feelings and
actions can really help. But, since you are here reading the blog of a Voodoo
Sister, I am going to assume that some magickal advice is being sought as well
😉

 

The Lady Samantha Hex Removal Kit is the first and most powerful option
we have. This kit is an extremely powerful spiritual cleansing, and while you
may not have been hexed, this kit is also very appropriate for cleansing away
what holds us back emotionally.

 

The Milk of Damballah White Bath kit is another option. An excellent
spiritual and emotional cleansing bath.

 

White image candles, white seven knob candles, a Cosmic Voodoo Healing
Egg for yourself are also very good choices. And would work wonderfully 
as a follow up to the Hex Removal Kit or the White Bath, to allow you to
continue to slowly and gently release issues one layer at a time.

 

Whatever method you choose, traditional or magickal (or best yet a
combination of both) addressing baggage and healing from it will definitely be
worth the effort put forth 😉 Remember, the most powerful healing we can do is for ourselves.

 

In Service,
