Music That Wrecks (Or Repairs) You

I had an Aquarian friend, when I was younger.  She was ten years older than me. Pisces moon, Sagittarius rising.  We used to travel together a lot.  We also shared music, also a lot.

One day, I put Blood on the Tracks on…she wanted it off, immediately. I complied, of course.

She explained, it brought up painful memories for her.  She just didn’t want to feel these particular feelings.

I felt her so hard and so clearly, I have not personally listened to this album since!  I caught her sensitivity, basically. It’s been decades!  But I mentioned, “idiot wind” in a blog comment last week and it reminded me of this.

I personally think the human brain is programmable…or some part of the human, because certainly songs are lasered into the souls of some of us.

In fact, my sister and I used music in therapy… specifically putting on the music that was playing in our house, when we were kids, so we could write dialogue from our childhood.

Today, I use music to program myself…  obviously, as I offered music with my forecasts, at times, for decades now.

My husband is certainly like this.  You may recall, he collected songs that reminded him of me (via the energy of the song), for twenty years, while we were apart.   When he hit me with that collection, I just about died. I literally thought my heart was going seize, for the last time!

Is there a particular song or songs that you choose to avoid hearing?
