Welcome to Gaia! ::

Well, yes, I'm making a thread about some stuff I did this morning before sleep.

I was chatting with a friend of mine from high school via MSN when I brought up the energy work he used to attempt at.

Which... the reason I thought to ask is because I have talked with him about my beliefs, which are found in the otherkin section of this site.

For purpose of discussion though I feel I must state that I sought out such information of my friend for the recent developments concerning kitsune. Some of the stories would speak of them draining the energy of victims... so... I just thought that simple energy work might help with better determining things with myself.

So, discussion went pretty good at the start... basic exercises involving the hands being parallel to each other and slight imagery.

Things to me got interesting in that I believe I felt "swirling" to the place away from me from the middle of my palms, and also doing sort of my own thing I noticed that the feeling could move across the palm of my hand from nudges from the other hand... and also could feel a coolness snake up my fingers at times.

Describing these things he thinks I'm a natural at it... so... I'm going to try fooling around a bit more until I could at least make a Qi ball to fool with... and then see where it goes from here.

If there's a thread already here about Qi, I would like to be redirected to it (and would move my post), but I would like to hear thoughts on this and if any your personal experiences.

So you were trying to do energy manipulation?
Experiences...

I have been able to induce feelings in others yet not myself. Due to this most of my experiences will be related to what I've done to others. This is because people seem to have trouble influencing energy near me.

I've been able to use energy to create sensations. Usually I don't make anything dense and instead rely on being able to use nerve networks and such in order to mimic sensations and feelings. The tingling would be the energy moving through the nerves and the cold would be drawing energy from the environment around the Construct (the ki ball you were making)

To create a ball you are drawing energy from your surroundings and massing it in one location. This drawing of energy and moving of the energy is what you were experiencing. But I expect that you know this.

I have drained energy, trying to move the energy out of a person through natural channels, this isn't that difficult.

You can also use the energy you mass for more useful peruses then a ball.
You can draw energy through your feet and draw in through your limbs and mass it in a section and through that forward motion use it to do things.

This energy can be used in spell work where it flows out of you with a given intent and you can affect things that way.

I have helped heal people. I have changed a screw into a nail by creating a current of energy through the nail.

I have taught people to break things with this energy. Its usually harder to teach them to fix the same thing.

I have tickled people over a distance. I have projected emotions to people so they could feel what I was feeling.

I have created channels between people to share energy and to do things.

I have created barriers against other people doing the same thing that I am talking about now.
There is a pretty long list...

All in all this is using a lot of the same techniques you are accept with a bit more control. Their are a lot of things you can do with this energy. Its not too difficult you just have to understand what your doing and then do it.

You draw on energy try to control it then give it purpose etc.

The Dragon with the Pearl or Globe is symbolism for the Dragon protecting creation, the earth, the universe, etc.

The Dragon is seen as the ultimate benevolence or the creator, at least from what I've read.
