The message today is clear: it’s time to reevaluate your friendships and cut out toxic people from your life. It can be too easy to make excuses for people you know just because you’ve had a friendship for a long time, or because there are plenty of upsides to go along with the down.
Stop right there and think about how each person truly makes you feel. Do you secretly dread hanging out with them? Are you purposefully avoiding them when they want to meet up? Stop letting those red flags go and focus on what’s best for you.
Online, offline, and everywhere in between, each relationship affects you.
How you feel after interacting with someone is a reliable indication of whether they are good for you or not. Do you feel at peace, energized, and happy? Or instead do you feel let down, sad, and angry? Don’t just stop at the surface emotions you feel, examine what your heart is saying about the treatment you’re receiving and let the voices of your angels guide you to make the best decision for you.
Your energy, your emotional health, and your manifestation abilities are at risk when you let toxic people remain in your life. Regardless of how well you are shielding from them, you’re still expending energy to not let them drain you dry. Your emotions may be torn between wanting to support them and needing to protect yourself while your manifestation abilities are curtailed to focus on them instead of you.
Even your physical health can suffer from the drain of entertaining these ‘friends’. It’s like living with mold in your house: you may not become sick immediately but you can be sure that you’ll start to feel the effects quickly and, unless you clean it out, you will become sick in the end. Don’t let the treatment of toxic friendships make you soul sick.
Choose people who want to see you succeed.
The people around you also affect the path you’re walking. When you have friends who care about supporting you and helping you with your burdens, you are more likely to be able to stay on the path you’ve chosen. But when you have friends who are always tempting you, always draining you, and always undercutting you, you might begin to stray from the guidance of your angels.
A true friend’s treatment will lift you up and make your life better. A toxic friend’s treatment will put you down and steal your time, energy, and goodwill.
So, what to do? Ask your angels for guidance and assistance with handling each detoxification with grace and compassion. Give them the treatment you wish they had given you. Be kind, but firm. Don’t let tears, anger, or justifications inhibit you from cutting out people from your life who aren’t good for you. You are being given a sign from your angels to focus on making your life better.
Now is the time to open yourself up to new relationships. It’s a new chapter in your life, one filled with love, laughter, and support. Letting go of toxicity will give you the time to focus on finding new friendships, ones that will fill you with light and happiness, with people who truly care about you and want you to succeed.
Your angels are ever present to guide you through this difficult culling, so trust in them to help you handle this with grace and civility. You are worthy of being surrounded by love and compassion and cutting out toxic people is an excellent first step.
