WelkingPath Yeah, I know what you mean about grounding. Those who have worked with energy for a while or have an innate knack for it will find the difference between their energy and borrowed energy very quickly. And your shields, like magick, will respond to your thoughts. If you think they *might* work, then they might. If you KNOW they'll work, then they will. Ah, okay. That explains the feeling of separate energies. Haha, the thing is, my thoughts contradict themselves all the time... xP I end up desperately hoping the shields will work. I know I can put them up, and keep them up for as long as I need them, but it's the purpose of the shield is what I'm having trouble with. Maybe I should try a new tactic... xD

I took a break for a few days, then I did what you suggested; I was able to do it easialy. One time that I felt very comfortable with how it was going, I wondered if I could make the energy ball go to my hand with my mind, like I did before. [I know this is straying away from the lesson that I was currently working on... sad sorry] I concentrated with my mind to make it move from my left hand to my right hand, within a few seconds I could easially move it around with my mind. It felt like I had more control over it with my mind than with my hands. Is that strange? Also, the burning faded away as I gained more control of the size of it.
But, as I began to resolve that problem, a new one came up! [oh joy....] I have found that I occasionally make them on accident. That can't be good. It thends to be when I'm alone and just thinking, very angry, in a crative mood, or after practicing. Ahh, I really need help stopping that.
I hadn't practiced for about a week, and now I'm sick, so I won't be able to use any advise for a while, or be able to catch up any time soon.

Billie: Have you ever heard that prayers and thoughts are magick? And, if you think about it, magick is energy? So wouldn't emotion (which could also be seen as magickal energy) become a more powerful energy source than your simple thought or prayer? When you think an angry thought (not too much of an angry thought, though), you're putting out negative energy. When you're feeling anger, it puts out even more energy. Even while you're sick, watch your emotions. When you're calm, what color is your energy? When you're angry, what color is it? When you're happy, what color? When you're sad? This also goes into aura reading, which this class won't get into, but, if you would like, I could try to find someone who knew more about this than I did... Very good observation. And I find it peculiar that they turn into energy balls. Or do they? I have a friend on another guild who keeps his extra energy and the energy cast off by his friends, puts it in a bubble, and burns it for himself whenever he needs it. Though I do not recommend this, since I haven't tried it, I find it quite interesting. I'm reluctant to try it myself because it seems that it is on the verge of phychic vampirism. So I urge you to please, DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME. Here is what you should do instead:Take your negative energy and change it into a different color, and program it with something positive. Then put it as a shield around you, much like I said so in Lesson #5. If you aren't in Lesson #5 yet, change the color of the energy ball (or try to), and program it with an offering, or prayer, to Mother Earth. Send the ball into the ground, grounding yourself in the process. You've just found a way to turn something negative into something positive.

I understood and knew that, but it didn't click &&make sense what was happening until you explained it. Thank you.
&&Also, the accidental ones aren't really balls, I just don't really know how to describe it. It's like smoke or steam, how it is in clumps and other forms, then spreads and disapates.
About what color it is for different emotions, I can never be sure, I can't see them at all. Sometimes I can feel what color it is [if that makes any sense...] but thats it.
I will try your suggestions, but I'v only worked up through lesson #2 so far. Thanks!

So what I want to try and do is give a bit of energy to some herbs I just planted. Maybe create a shield to promote healthy growth.
But I'm going to wait 'till the little things grow some more. I'm afraid a surge of too much energy won't have as much of a positive effect... XD Poow widdel baybeh planties! <3
Which kind of leads me to a question (which should have probably been asked before the shielding, but I just thought of it) : Controlling the amount of energy in the ball... If I want to make a smaller one than the one I have in my hand at the time, what do I do? Would I like... Suck energy/mass/volume/whatever out? Create a second ball full of the extra energy and send it into the ground? Nyou... Making a ball bigger is much more simple...

Billie--I TOTALLY understand what you're talking about when it comes to feeling the color. Read the how-to posted earlier....
And Strawberry--if you wanted to make a smaller ball, you could compress it, or you could, like you said, suck out some energy. Another thing you could do is divide it in two, or three, or however many parts. If you want to divide it in two, for example, you'd just take a "string" or a "knife" and cut it. For three, make the string branch off...etc
Make sense?

I would love it if you joined the class! I'll add your name to the list, and be sure to read all of the first few posts, and the post on grounding! Love and Blessed Be ~WP I know it's been a while since I've posted a lesson, but I think most of you are playing "catch-up" anyway, so I should be able to post a lesson before next Saturday. If you're waiting on me, I appologize, and if you're looking for something to do, PM me or just work on creating energy balls and throwing them around. Practice makes Perfect!

Thanks so much! I'll try to post my findings in a few days. I want to practice a little bit longer. Is it bad if the ball of energy your making is really small. I can't seem to make it much bigger than an inch in diameter.

No, not at all. Try making the energy ball, and then try putting another one on top of it, making the origional the "core" of the energy ball. They can even be different colors, if you'd like. Or, try physically pinching the sides and stretching it out, while still adding energy. Tell me if that doesn't work.

Lesson #6
In Lesson #5 you learned how to make a basic shield, and I told you to experiment with the usual color and energy source. Now you'll learn to shield from negativity, and will practice with adding texture and more colors to your shields. This lesson really builds on Lesson #5, so if you don't have Lesson #5 down, you may have some difficulties with this one.
Start as usual: In a quite place where you won't be disturbed. Do some meditation to rid yourself of negativity, and construct a shield of a color of your choice, like in Lesson #5.
Now, program your shield against something. A good one to start with is; "Repel sickness." After you're 100% sure that the shield will do it's job, go about your day like usual.
After your first attempt, here are other things you can shield yourself from:
--Ill wishes
--Negetive people (including your "friends")
--Negetive thoughts (your own and your "friends'")
--Harm in general
And as usual, you can also experiment with colors and energy sources. What colors do you find the easiest to work with? What colors don't work? What energy source is the easiest to work with when it comes to shielding? Is that the same you have been taking from for the energy balls?
If you have time, research the magickal properties of each color and post it here for our benefit. (I might just post it in one of the earlier posts!) Don't forget to list your source!
Happy findings, and may you Blessed Be
~WP

lesson#5
Well I've been able to make stable shields....earth''s energy is the one I draw most on now because for me the sun's energy takes time to build and the moon is like, waay rush? So I find it easier to shield when I'm laying either on my back or my stomach. I press my hands and feet into the ground and visualize lying on grass and feeling the cool earth underneath, and I have my 'keyword,' which triggers the drawing. It builds up like a bubble and I think I got the hang of it because it gets pretty warm er, inside the bubble.
I noticed because it gets pretty cold in my room sometimes but I dont feel it around me. I've only been able to use one color-green- but maybe thats cos I only use one energy source so far. I know we're supposed to have like a program but I forget...but I know the area around my bed is shielded because when I sit on it and dangle my legs way out I feel this tingly feeling around my leg, as if they are passing through something...it's not the most comfortable feeling. I've tried shielding just like around myself but I noticed that it makes me hyper aware of people moving around me....or maybe my shield is too big?

It's a great idea to have a keyword to signal to your conscious and semi-conscious mind that it's time for energy work. Good idea!
As for your shield being too big...
Stick out your arms. Bring them up, stretch to your toes. That should be the length of your shield. Now make a "T" with your arms. Make the width of your shield come a comfortable distance between your hands and elbows-ish. All in all, it should look like a pointy egg when you're done.
If you still feel people walking around you, consider this a good thing because you're able to sense their auras! This can be especially helpful if you're ever in a dangerous situation. Sometimes if you look at someone and they just give you the creeps (even from accross the room), you're sometimes seeing/feeling their aura, which could display their emotions or thoughts. So this is clearly helpful in any dangerous situation.
Keep us posted, and thanks for the advice on the keyword and the question! heart

*waves* hello, Just dropping by to let you know that you have a new admirer! isn't that lovely. :]
I just barely got accepted to the guild, but found your page earlier today, and have been reading it for a while. It's very good, and I love your detailed explanations. They're quite accurate. While I've been practicing energy manipulation for a while, it never hurts to learn more.
Might you be willing to take on another student? If not I'll still be keeping track with your lessons, because I like them >>
