Lesson 4 Part II

Part one taught you how to move your ball, now you'll learn to throw it and "pass it on."

Alright, some of you have already tried to throw it, but for those who haven't, this lesson will teach you. And for those who want more challenging work, this part of the lesson will be fun.


For those who need to learn to throw it, picture your ball (or object) going to a certain area. Picture the path it takes, and picture it landing there. Sure, you can throw a yellow ball at your little brother's stomach if he has a stomach ache (or however you spell it), and he may just feel better.

For the game passing it on, you kinda need a partner who knows how to do this, too. Or you could do it by yourself.

Partners: One partner make a shape with a texture, "throws" it to the other partner, who tells the first partner what he/she thinks it is.

Singles: Try making a shape in a different room. Then call it to you. Then see if the shape held. Eventually GRADUALLY increase the distance. (You don't want to try a sandy-cone of energy in China on your fourth try!)

Have fun! Happy findings, and may you Blessed Be!

i guse i will try the new lesson, bu ti have no friend who is into this energy stuff at the moment, so it may be hard. I could try the single person thing, but i dont get it very well... I guse ill practice throwing it a lil more...^_^

u know this is funny. I had a friend B4 tell my other friend their aura was spiky and blakc, she was right, but i didnt get the spiky part. So this makes more sence now, it cool.

So i guse i have a question. How can any other person see the color, or feel the texture if you are the only one who can see it? I belive you said that in a realier ost where u told us how to color our balls, but i may have seen it in another thread.

I wouldn't say that they could figure out the color of your object, but they could figure out the texture and the actual shape of the object. Really advanced energy workers may be able to get the color, but they would have to do some really intense color training to do that.

This class won't go into that, but basically if one wanted to start color training he/she would get an array of colors in a certain medium. Let's just say colored paper. He/she would hold a *red* piece of paper in his/her hand and see what he/she felt about red. Same goes for all the other colors. Then, when he/she can be blindfolded and KNOW which color he/she was given in the colored paper, he/she would pick another medium--let's say yarn. He/she would do the same thing again. This would go on, progressing through mediums like paper, paint, leather, ink, plastic.... Eventually one could get good enough to identify colors in energy. But--it takes A LOT, and I mean A LOT of time and energy to get to that point.

Great question, Zabazor! This will be an optional lesson/how-to. That's awesome!

Happy findings!

This was an interesting lesson. I really want to try the partners one, but there's nobody here who will actually do it with me. I guess I could wait 'till my boyfriend came over tomorrow... Nyou...

The "creating a ball in another room" takes more concentration than it sounds. So far (since my house has an open layout, meaning there's really no walls between the rooms) I could see every place I made the ball. I made two about a foot away from me (One a sandy green cone, and the other an orange hairy ball [Eew, the hair tickled! Yuck!])... Then I made a purple bumpy ball almost ten feet away on the half-wall between my kitchen and my dining room. (actually, it was purple with brown circles on the bumps. I made it look like a Katamari ball... XD)
I think I'm going to start combining textures. Like a bumpy sticky ball. Yay Katamari Damacy!

Still not getting anything... I'm not that good at meditation, but ridding myself of negative energy is second nature. I've been trying a few times every day, but I still get nothing...

I can't seem to get anything working for me...

*sigh*

Maybe you just need to take a break and see what happens when you try later. Try a week or two, then see what happens. The main thing is that I don't want you to get discouraged.

And good job, Strawberry! Keep up the good work!

I should be on next weekend to post the next lesson, which might be a lot of ideas of what you can use these energy balls for, now. Also, it might be what else you could do with your new talents in energy work.

Keep it up, happy findings and may you Blessed Be.

Lesson III
So.... textures? Really odd concept, not one I've heard before. But.... suspended disbelief and went ahead to will it into being. First ball was fairly ordinary. Once it was stickified... I think it was more like glue than just sticky. Once I picked up the ball again it... sort of just stuck to my palm no matter what I did. And in a brief moment I asked myself 'uh... how do I un-stick it from my hand?' As a solution I just squished it (aka rubbed my palms together). Not sure if that's a bad habit or not. Heh.

I tried another one, but instead of setting it down on a surface to stikify it I suspended it in front of me in the air. Something rather odd happened after this. As before, bits of it stuck to my palm, but it didn't pull the whole ball with it. Reached with the other hand... and I got another glob stuck to my other palm. Which... was odd and unexpected. The original ball was still hanging there... apparently a perpetual glue-ball suspended in the air until I decided to squish it. Is that supposed to happen?? sweatdrop

So my boyfriend never came over on Sunday... I honestly don't think he would have been interested in passing around an energy ball anyway... XD

Starlock: I love your descriptions of the balls. You're like "Gah! Glue?!?! What? *squash!*"
Tee-hee. Sorry, that just made me giggle a bit inside...

Maybe this happened because you didn't ORDER it to move with your hands. I don't think the texture matters that much, but let's say it's a science experiment and you should keep it the same for the next time you try it.

Good work, though! It's good that I found something new for you. 3nodding

Well, that's part 'o why I wanted to sign on for this because it looked like I'd learn something a bit different. Other things I've usually done with energy don't involve balls so much as things like sensing the aura/energy around the rest of my body or other objects or making use of the fact that a pointing finger is excellent at directing energy (perhaps that's why your parental unit might always say it isn't polite to point... you're energy-zapping them!).

That's interesting! I've never thought of that. Energy-zapping them...huh.

I had a break for a few days, then tried again. Still nothing. What's wrong with me?

Don't worry. Some people just aren't good energy workers. It is probably just your negative feelings getting in the way, now. I'll talk to some of my contacts to see if they have any other thoughts about what you should do. But for now, take a week off and do some reflective meditations. Maybe this isn't the right route for you to go--I can see if I can teach you seperately a different method, if you'd like.

I'll contact you within a few days with some new ideas. Don't worry--we'll sort this out together, I promise. I'm not giving up on you, so you shouldn't give up on you, either.

I'll start contacting people right away.

Love you, dear! heart

This might sound weird but... I can't meditate. I'm naturally restless, and find it difficult to stay comfortable. When I try to meditate, I can't stop wriggling. It's the same when I try to sleep. I just can't relax and I just get irritated.

I wouldn't say "can't". You can do anything if you set your mind to it. If you really are having trouble meditating, please send me a PM and we can discuss it and I can see if I can help you to actually meditate. I'd really like to help, so please PM me. Actually, scratch that... I'll send you a PM.

Anyway, I'm not really familiar with energy shielding. But I'm going to assume that, just like many other things, it's easier for some people to do than others. There are a lot of things that you have to train yourself to do. And it takes a lot of patience. I've known people that had to scry everyday for like a month before they ever actually saw anything, and then I've known people who saw something the very first time they tried it. So you see, everyone's different.

Just because you haven't been able to do something yet, that doesn't mean that anything is wrong with you. It just means that it doesn't come easily to you and that you have to work a little bit harder. You're perfectly normal, trust me. 3nodding
