RE: Feelings.
Maria, what you are feeling is the love of your spirit for these people and that could indicate a soul group link; people you know and have worked with in the spirit realms. Spirit love is much stronger and accepting than earthly, heart love.
I once met a young man at a weekend who I deeply felt was my brother, although we'd never met before - in this life! 😀 I felt so fond of him and wanted to hug him...but refrained from doing so in case he was alarmed! But he felt a similar bond between us and it was lovely to re-make his aquaintance that way.
I cannot understand how a or our spirit can hold on to memories if spirit is energy and no brain to hold information in.
Pure energy doesn't need a brain - that's just a meat box with impulses and emotions. Energy can be 'written on', just as a crystal holds information for watches, pcs and such like. If I was more scientific-minded I could cite some better examples, but believe me, energy does hold memory. Muscle holds memory. Emotions hold memory. The energy in houses holds memory - hence, ghosts. Our spirits recall significant past life events and soul group connections.
Trust your instincts about people you meet and revel in how wonderful it all is! 😀

RE: Feelings.
Hi Maria
I have read your post a couple of times, and have been thinking how to give you my reply, as I think I understand where you are coming from, but I do not think I have any answers......
I do believe we have both male and female energies within us, and I also feel that we are coming into a time where we need to learn how to feel each energy and find a balance or an in between of both... I think the words are in touch with our male side if we are female and in touch with our female side if we are male... I am still trying to work all this out myself...
You talk of having feelings for the same sex, I think many people do now, more than ever, as we are more open to feelings and emotions, and are finding acceptance of how we feel instead of putting up barriers, yet at the same time, I do feel that there are times when some of us cannot handle emotions of same sex, or if we can, we get scared and up goes the wall, I myself having been there on and off over a period of time...
The nearest I can if I can explain of love from within, even tho I love another, it does not always feel like me, but something else, now I know that sounds really naff.. but it is like some energy moves within me and wants to litterly jump out and embrace another, those that this happens to, is normally those that just need that love, that support, that feeling of emotion, which I know I can give.. but then I think is it right for me to give this love? I know I understand what they are feeling, that is why I want to give it, then I start to get conflicts within myself, is it right.... for is it just a physical need that someone needs, is it an illusion for them and for me..
Almost 3 years ago, I was told that love heals and at the time I was close to someone who was very ill, so I sent the love that I felt within me, and when I discussed this with them, they said it did help and they also felt this love.. it is so long ago that its hard to remember what we discussed about love and healing.. but because love is such a powerful positive emotion and it is given with the intent to help, as well as un conditionally I do believe it helps another.. but only to the point that they want to be helped.. as the saying goes you can only help those that help themselves.. and there has been many a time when I have had to walk away, because they prefered to stay as they were.. but the positive side of this, they experienced this deep and profound love, which I had been told on and off over the last X amount of years they had not felt anything like this, or experienced this....
For me, I just know I touch within, people cross my path and they for some reason open up themselves to me.. its like I read somewhere in here the other day... not on the same lines.. but are people drawn to us because there is a need, and that perhaps they can feel some people have something to give another? I don't know, but it got me thinking about needs of people, after all, don't we all have needs sometimes... is it wrong to have needs.. perhaps it is wrong if we have needs and those needs become an obsession.. a need that becomes more than a need..
Even now, I still question my role when sending, giving love, and the main reason, what lesson is in this, if any... how much do you give, if you given then walk away, can one feel rejected.. or are they there in my life just to have whatever it is I can give...
One thing for me, which I have come to understand for me and is only my opinion, never fight what you feel, live for the moment with what you have, what you have got, and feel the emotion, after all is life not about experiencing, feeling emotions that we can feel in the physical body.. I may sound a bit contradicting.. but it is a hard question or questions to answer..

RE: Feelings.
Hi Maria,
I have been having Reiki for the past year and this is a balancing of the energies. You are right in saying that we have male and female energy. My understanding is that the male energy gives strength to the female energy and the female energy softens the male energy. The male energy would be the head energy that gives us the drive for planning, organising, physical lifting etc and the female energy is the emotional energy. When you talk of the love that you feel for other people I can understand that because I believe we are all connected through energy. Some people that you feel particularly close to are those that are on the same vibration as you or as you said that you may have a past life connection with.
Don't know if I've made any sense, its quite new to me as well so my explaining might sound a little crazy.
I suppose to sum it up I think if you look in to Reiki you will find answers to your questions.
C ya,
A.
