Astrology

Wound collectors are individuals who go out of their way to collect social slights, historical grievances, injustices, unfair or disparate treatment, or wrongs – whether real or imagined and who feel perennially aggrieved. They wallow in perceived transgressions and nourish these grievances by insisting on the ill intent on the part of others, and by not forgetting nor forgiving. Thus, they guarantee the wounds remain fresh, festering, and irrationally handy. By teasing these gaping non-healing psychological wounds, which according to them no one else has ever endured or suffered as they have, acrimonious sentiments seep out in the form of irreconcilable complaints or constant carping. Eventually, if unchecked, the toxic nature of wound collecting explodes to the surface metastesized, like a volcanic toxic brew, the seething magma of psychological pus, manifesting as anger, lashing out, animosity, or even vengence. And therein is the danger of wound collectors.
