Lesson 2: How we cand build energy I
I imagine many of you will have already heard of this and experienced it so this is sort of a rough guide hehe.
We build energy in order to give power to our magical work. It's not hard but it does take effort. If we didn't do it then our work might not have much oompf and could fail or only half work...if that makes sense.
You know when you by fresh flowers you get a little sachet of white powder that makes the flowers live longer...thats the same kind of effect building energy has on our magical work smile
Though I know there are more ways to build energy the two I have the most experience with are visualisation and chanting...or a combo of the two. So these two lessons will be on that.
Visualisation:I'll give an example of an exercise followed by a sort of explanation.
This is my favourite visualisation but as always, experiment and make up your own...this will help you put more personal power into your work.
I get comfy, for me this is often lying down as its a position I'm only in for a few hours and is by far my favourite but you decide what is best for you.
I begin by visualising all of my daily worries being put into a childs toy chest and locked by a brown bear that then pushes it out of the spotlight in my mind.
Then I can begin building energy. I imagine myself in the night sky, surrounded only by stars. No planets, no space dust...definately no spaceships. Just stars. As I reach out towards one it starts to glow purple or magenta...a kind of pinky-purple colour. A sort of celestial hand pushed the star towards me and it moves to my solar plexus.
Such a thing repeats itself until I feel I have enough stars to do what I need to. I am able to move this energy to where it needs to be with the palms of my hands and put it into or send it to what is needed.
Now this is a very relaxed way of building energy. Its not quick and it doesn't reach a crescendo. It just gradually builds up...like dust on a shelf I suppose
smile I know this isn't everyones cup of tea. Its not fast and dramatic but my life is hectic and this exercise also helps me to relax prior to working which i find very useful. Feel free to alter it as you see fit, everyone is different.
I think the amount of energy put into a working should be directly proportional to the strength of your protection. So if you create a small ball of energy your working will have less oompf than if you spent time building a huge ball.
I hope this lesson was helpful and, of course, if you have any questions please pm me. I apologise in advance if the coherance and length are somewhat left to be desired, its very late and I feel like my mind is falling out my ears hehe.
Homework: Complete the visualisation above and send the energy to a place you feel needs it. (eg a sick friend) Write down your experience to add to you BOS if you have one and share it here in the class.
It may also be productive to create your own visualisation if the above doesn't suit you. If these could be pm'd to me I'd be really grateful as I will post all of them in a presentation style post for all to see.
Thank you and Bright Blessings
