This is a term we may use ourselves, but we will hear it used often to describe someone not behaving in quite the way that our society deem's a person should (this being known as societies 'norm'). Rather a broad statement really!
But just what is 'A Troubled Soul'? And what does it really mean? Does it in all fact have any spiritual bearing whatsoever? Or is it merely as stated, a term of description for the way a person is or is not acting? Who knows! I certainly don't... but I do have a few thoughts that I wish to share with you here.
A Troubled Soul is and can be, a very real state of being...for one in the physical or the spiritual realm.
It is an interpretation of behaviour that is often attributed or associated with one who has seperated or has 'lost' their way in their Spiritual Journey here on earth...a person who is having a hard time within the decisions and responsibilities of life itself...mentally and spiritually.
Or, it can also on occasion, be exactly as it suggests... one who is quite lost within the transition from physical death to spirit afterlife, trapped in a state of being where they cannot quite 'cross over' and enter into the peace we call eternal/afterlife.
The latter can occur for many reasons, the most common being that they perhaps died instantly, usually as a result of an accident and are unaware what has just happened to them...or sometimes, they just do not wish to leave their loved ones/family yet, as they feel they need to stay and protect/guide them. Or they have what they still feel is unfinished 'business' here on earth. Whichever one it may be, it is a very 'real' state to be locked within. It doesnt mean that a person living or otherwise is a 'bad seed'... nor should either be judged... in any way whatsoever.
What you should offer one in this state ... is love, compassion and a form of understanding so as to assist them into a release. Be it of spirit or a physical human being.If you are with/trying to assist one who is in this state of being... I can only suggest the following to assist you:
TAKE NOTE: If this is a 'Spirit Being' you are working with I strongly suggest you follow your psychic training. Also, be sure to pray (in your own preferred form) to place a protective covering (bubble) of whilte light ordained by your God to completely surround you and your immediate environment...be sure to 'close down' when you finish (shutting off all entry to your personal life/world) THIS IS IMPORTANT.
You should first take a moment to validate the person or spirit, and this is done by acknowledging to them that they are important to you and that you only wish to help them in their (obvious) dilemma.
Guide them to follow you (mentally) into a place where they and you both feel secure. Build a feeling of trust between you. Hear and/or envision whatever it is that they are trying to share/show to you that they are feeling.
Physical OR Spiritual...Listen to them. Do not lead them! Allow them to express their own feelings. Encourage them to speak to you or to show to you in your mind whatever it is that they are going through, what they are feeling or (a spirit) what they see around them.
Listen very hard and try to perceive within yourself what it is they obviously need (emotionally) from you that will/can assist them at this time.
VALIDATE them! Do not demean or criticise them verbally or mentally for it as this will break all trust. Usually you will encounter some frustration (anger) first. This is the way we humans tend to act when we are lost or frightened.
Those that are in Spirit really do not wish to physically harm us in any way...and they really cannot so remember this! DO NOT show any fear. Many are simply lost and are themselves in actual fear and can be very confused.
As I said...VALIDATE their presence as being welcomed by you and confirm to them that they are in all honesty, very important to you. Soothe them simply by consciously emitting (from your mind and heart) feelings and words of love... in any form that you see fit to.
Confirm this love you have for them over and over to them. This will and really does calm the 'soul' almost immediately. And in turn, by calming them you are in fact allowing and assisiting in a release of their pent up feelings that have resulted in them being/feeling the way they do or actually experiencing what they are while in this state.
Pray for/with them in whatever form is right for you both. Encourage them to join with you in this, but continue silently if they reject joining in.
Everyone these days, in some way, is becoming aware that the veil between the worlds is not inpenatrable. Many are seeing ans hearing things from the other side.
Seek professional guidance to learn as much as you can BEFORE you enter into ANY communication with what we term 'A TROUBLED SOUL' in the spirit realm...and stay away from things such as Ouija Boards etc for they are a tool that really does open a doorway to ALL types of entities!
Be aware that many 'spirit beings' are just as they were when here upon earth...they may be friendly or very 'un'friendly. Some still have their own agenda, which is why they are restless and michevious. You need to understand this. YOU need to be very learned here.
As for a 'living' troubled soul? Love....this is the only key to assisting anyone who is lost on their journey home. Listening and trying to understand heals and assists them more than all the pious or traditional psyche ever will.
But by the same token, you need to know that they are the ONLY one who can change this! YOU CANNOT. Life has a way of teaching INDIVIDUAL lessons to us all, your involvment in another's uphill climb here in life is as a friend...not a pack horse to carry their burdens.
In saying this I mean DO NOT overload yourself with their worry, pain etc...for then you too stand the risk of also becoming...
A Troubled Soul
