Lately I've been feeling really anxious, really sensitive to people's trauma and really psychic. I think I'm meant to be a healer or psychic lady so I can fix people. I've been studying astrology, metaphysics, crystals and tarot cards since age 12. I'm really sensitive to people's energy and feel compelled to heal them. Does anyone feel the same?

yes. They call these people empaths, or lightworkers @Wilhelmina
Boundaries are especially important to become conscious of, lest energy vampires drain your life force...

Sorry
But if you find out, let me know, too! 🙏
