>Hi OMA,
>
>I am responding to the general gist of your post, although I really only glanced it over. My apologies, but I am not grounded enough right now to read about personal anger and agression.
>
>But I'd like to say that anger and aggression are basic human instincts, that even the most enlightened person still has them. But, we can express anger and agression in either a negative or positive fashion. We can express them in ways that hurt ourselves and others, or in ways that help people find joy and personal growth.
>
>For me, I take my anger and aggression out in humour, BDSM, writing, singing, activism and physicality (like dancing, or martial arts, even though currently I am in too much pain to do these things). And using my anger and aggression to do these things bring me much joy.
>
>I try not to use my anger as black magic towards others. When someone pisses me off, I stop, breathe and ask God/dess to help me say what is needed. If I am still too upset to do this, I simply walk away and wait for a more grounded time to do so. And sometimes nothing needs to be said or done.

>But last autumn, between Samhain and Yule, I too had a lot of anger towards myself, people in my life, the world, this list, the God/dess, etc. And I threw a lot of bloody tantrums. But it taught me the importance of staying grounded, surrendering to God/dess, not giving too much attention to drama, and not geting wrapped up in emotional frenzies. Because I started to see what negatively expressed anger and agression were doing to my body and spirit, and to others. So now I honour my darker emotions and ask God/dess to help me express them in ways that are 'for the good/bad of all' -whatever kind of energy is needed for all.
>
>And I do like the fact that you are honest about your anger and aggression. Better than the passive agressive shit I used to have going on, kidding myself that I wasn't angry and aggressive. Honour your feelings and ask God/dess to help you express them with the best possible results for all. Surrender to that. And sometimes it means you will be a bitch...at least in my case :) But I do what is needed and refuse to let other people's negative opinions inpact the actions chosen for me by God/dess. And I have noticed that I'm getting a lot more respect when I'm honestly expressing my anger/aggression in a grounded fashion.
