More sensitive to catalyst

[zenmaster]

I've become more sensitive to even the words of people. Is that normal with spiriutal growth, to become more sensitive to the things others say? I cannot be around certain people because of this, particualarly if they have a darker persona.

It's a normal, temporary, phase. We tend to magnify areas that are being worked on in order to identify, and then to balance - that can cause hyper sensitivity or "hypervigilance". After balance, there is no undue (unconscious) attention of that aspect. One example may be of a person, who is working on some aspect of self-honesty, spots "fake" things so much that they are unable to suspend their disbelief while watching a movie.

Are others experiencing increase in sensitivity to catalyst, and that catalyst seems to be more specific in how it affects us?

I'd say yes, although I wouldn't get carried away with my imagination. We tend to fantasize about what is meaningful catalyst.

How do they deal with this increase in sensitivity without getting weirded out?

Along with that increase in sensitivity to that certain area, comes with it a sensitivity to the balancing (or integrating) aspect. The unconscious draws both kinds of catalyst and strangely, due to the universe being 'one thing', the person runs into things just those things which have relevance to that drama. Like synchronistic meetings. Meanwhile, unconsciously, the person knows what is required for balance. An idea of that potential is what keeps one from being "weirded out".

Like these songs, I can't listen to them for long. Are we supposed to avoid what makes us uncomfortable, or get to where we are comfortable with all catalyst? I'm just so energy sensitive to the beats.

If it is haunting or intriguing or in some way compelling, then it may be functioning to stir something as yet unaddressed or unacknowledged in the personal unconscious psyche - highlighting it for you to grasp and to own.

Interestingly, some things in the personal unconscious may also part of a general 'way' for the collective unconscious. If you provide an answer, that will sort of epitomize the 'road to salvation', as it were. And so there is a certain amount of responsibility for 'working' or 'healing'.
