The next best thing is to understand what emotional black holes are, what causes them, and how we can avoid being pulled into them.

Now you have to find the source of that emotional black hole’s and heal and release it so you can bring in new energies.

They are places in our emotional body where, like black holes in the universe, we have a concentration of very dense energy, a reservoir which contains all of our unhealed emotional trauma.  Our most painful emotional memories represent our biggest emotional black holes, and they are powerful forces of negativity.
