Reading emotions

I have an issue with reading emotions from people faces.

I see a face which is smiling and I get a thought (intuition says) that this person is sad.

In the same manner I frequently get a thought that a person fakes an emotion or exaggerates it based on his face.

What is your experience regarding reading emotions ?

Should I trust my thoughts and intuition here ?

How should I make sure that I don’t make a mistake in interpretation about emotion a person has ?

That’s very interesting. What is the issue specifically that you’re dealing with? In other words, how does the situation you’re in affect you? I read people wrong all the time, and I just kind of accept that. Is it more difficult for you to accept?

In comparation to thoughts, I tend to trust the intuition.
And sometimes if I’m in neutral/void state I can read their thoughts, it just appears as if it were mine.
And it’s not only with people but with animals and plants as well.

You don’t, interpreting involves judgement (right or wrong), void state is an accepting state, just accept it as it is…

I watch reactions to movies. I feel that a person overreacts purposefully. I also feel that the intention is to fit it and not to make good business.

No big issue, it is fun and useful to make more correct conclusions.

You mean that personal interest in a situation will change the intuition what emotion there is ?

How do you realize that, I guess you simply ask ?

Also, is your “reading people” equal to “reading emotions” ?

I accept that by laughing that they behave such way :grinning:

The way you put. Did you make sure by asking the person what they are thinking to make sure you are not fantasizing. Regarding mental health, there is a delusion called “Thought insertion” Thought insertion is defined by the ICD-10 as the delusion that one’s thoughts are not one’s own, but rather belong to someone else and have been inserted into one’s mind. Also “Thought broadcasting” Thought broadcasting is a type of delusional condition in which the affected person believes that others can hear their inner thoughts, despite a clear lack of evidence.

I meant by interpretation not what is right or wrong, but if I feel that a person is sad, he is sad, but show smile.

I am accepting, I am ok with what he feels, either happy or sad, it is technical for me to detect what emotion based on face clues.

There are ways to know whether this is coming from “Mind” (Hypothesizing / Judging / Fantasizing) or “Intuition”. Among them is if you feel the need to “make sure” then that is coming from the mind.
Such as “He is smiling but I think he’s sad, but I need to make sure, let’s ask him”. If you need face clues that’s the mind..

Maybe yes, maybe no.

It is not that hard to doubt yourself for a moment and ask another person what is he thinking and compare with what you thought/felt that person is thinking. People can be wrong. It might be painful, even if you set intention to do that.

What else, the Spirit ? Based on channelings intuition is a deeper mind.

OK I didn’t want to help you solve a problem that wasn’t a problem. If I’m hearing you right, you’re just curious about this and not upset or anything.

Well it is a problem :slightly_smiling_face: that I don’t know, that is the problem.

Correct I am curious. Also, I am discontent that I don’t know.


I am curious, why didn’t you answer my questions I did ask you? Because of “I didn’t want to help you solve a problem that wasn’t a problem”?

Because I want to make sure I understand first.

Absolutely. I mean, you’re not going to “understand” intuition – its whole function is to provide resources from outside of the intellect. I have some non-LLR information on this that might help if you’re interested.

Usually their behavior bears it out in the long/medium run. But it’s always a gamble. We cannot know others’ hearts. My opinion is that in STO you have to begin relying more on intuition, which means straightening your own blockages out.

Sure, given that the emotions are what are going to prompt the most surprising actions most of the time. They’re basically equivalent; the emotions are what keep reading people from being the same thing as, say, making a physics calculation.

Sorry I didn’t answer your questions promptly.

Then following this logic - personal interest change intuition - it means that intuition is not “knowledge”, since knowledge is a reflection of reality.

Lets say there is this video

Lets say, my interest is for Donald Trump to fail and make a fool of himself.

In this video, my intuitions are these:

Based on Trump expressions

  • He wants for Rubio to end talking quicker
  • He thinks he is superior to Rubio
  • He likes to be praised

Based on Rubio expressions

  • he wants to get approval
  • he wants to do a job good
  • he is soft
  • he is not fully comfortable working with Trump, he can be disloyal to Trump on certain issues and Trump is not aware about this

But still, intellectually speaking, you have to make a balance sheet how many times your intuition was correct with the end result. If intuition was only 50% right of all times, then this is kind of trash in terms of knowing.

I think it is not about hearts, but about expressions. Still, actors can manipulate that.

No bid deal, I just thought that you decided not to answer.

You’ve kind of lost me, but that’s ok – there’s lot of people here who can probably be better partners on this than I. Hope you find what you’re looking for.

The one that is ‘doubting’ is the mind. Doubting, judging, fantasizing, work of the mind.
That’s how you differentiate whether it’s ‘intuition’ (not mind) or ‘the mind’ (not intuition).
That’s why meditation is the practice of ‘silencing the mind’.
That’s the reason why intuition will get sharper through meditation / the mind is silenced.

Intuition will also work with ‘non human entities’, animals, plants, places among others..
And blind people usually have sharper intuition.

Too bad.

Look at this citation:

The great value of their determination is that the seeker herself shall make this determination and thereby strengthen her ability to discriminate that which has value to it by the exercise of the intuition, the releasing of the power of the subconscious mind, the harmonizing of that which is the conscious mind with the subconscious mind so that like a muscle that is well exercised there is strength developed in the area of discrimination as well.

I don’t know, it looks like intuition is part of mind. It is the subconscious mind. Or maybe I have reading/comprehension problems.

Yes I believe the confusion is due to the terminology.
Ra uses vibratory sound complex of Conscious Mind to describe Mind while uses Subconscious Mind to describe Intuition. Let’s relate this to our discussion in another thread about the VEIL.

I am Ra. The mechanism of the veiling between the conscious and unconscious portions of the mind was a declaration that the mind was complex. This, in turn, caused the body and the spirit to become complex.
The Law of One Third Density: The Veil

Thus using Ra’s lingo, meditation (among others) is the practice of silencing the conscious portions of the mind thus the “subconscious mind” a.k.a intuition can be heard.
From my understanding and personal experience this “subconscious mind” is also very complex much more complicated than the “conscious mind”.
Dreaming during sleep is another simple example wherein you’re traversing / listening / experiencing (a part of) “subconscious mind”.

I will probably end the discussion regarding intuition now with you, because it is superficial. We are not discussing real world examples, where the application of concepts and utility lays.
