Just like was said in your wanderer story thread, they lash out, as if your bringing destruction upon them. I know these answers, but it feels good to ask the questions all the same.
A theory: A person cannot accept more love than they are capable of giving out.
fairyfarmgirl: Feeling great, doesn't it? Crying is one of the fundamentals of being human, yet we are fed the idea to look down upon it. It is the physical response of all release. It is as it should be.
I think for myself--- having a complete meltdown and release was scary because one is vulnerable and unaware of their surroundings during a release like that which I am speaking of... and the natives are often hostile... it is my job to remain embodied... so I often had to wait until a time where I was relatively safe. The people running the sweatlodge though were very very uncomfortable with such a release and transmutation... they felt that I was being too open letting all of my emotions hang out for all to see and interpreted this as an attention seeking type of action. It was painful to be in a space that implied support but really was more about the ego trappings of spirituality.
