The Causes of Soul Loss Soul loss can occur at any time in one’s life. Soul loss occurs when a fragment of the soul leaves the body to help it cope with the shock from a traumatic event. The trauma doesn’t necessarily have to be physical to cause a soul loss. Emotional and psychological trauma can also cause significant soul loss in an individual. Events that can cause soul loss in an individual are: Accidents Physical, sexual, or emotional abuse Being in war Major surgery Community violence Natural disasters Breakup Divorce Death of a loved one Being forced to act against one’s morals Experiencing rejection Repeated oppression Bullying Prolonged grief Humiliating experience Soul loss in childhood can have long-term consequences and can negatively affect the wellbeing of a person. People can also go through soul loss in abusive relationships. The reaction to a traumatic event can vary from person to person. The severity of soul loss symptoms may vary with different people. What causes a significant soul loss in one person may not cause soul loss in someone else. A traumatic experience may be denied as something that negatively affects the natural condition of the soul. The response to a traumatic event would depend upon an individual’s background, their level of awareness, their personality, and the strength of their willpower. Soul loss can also occur as a result of soul theft, where a person takes a part of the soul of another person to gain control over them and compensate for their soul loss. Sometimes, in relationships, people give a part of their soul to someone else, in an attempt to form a deeper connection with them. Soul theft can also happen in cases where a person envies someone else and wishes to be like them.
