Everything is made of energy. Physicists have
since discovered that even the atom, the smallest piece known, the building
block of the universe, can be broken down into even smaller pieces, some
of which aren't even held together by any bonds. However, all this
has no effect on manipulating the subtle energies that are a part of everything.
To elaborate on this, not only can energy be manipulated,
moved around, and transferred, it can be seen in the form of the aura,
or sensed in other ways. If you can see auras, then this will come
a little easier to you. If you haven't touched on the subject of
auras, then you can look here. Now,
enough of my sidestepping, let's work some energy!
Activity #1 - Sensing Energy With Your Hand
You'll just need yourself for this.
1. Hold your arm out, with sleeves pushed back, so the bare skin is exposed.
2. Hold your other hand out a few centimeters above your arm.
3. After a little bit, you should be able to feel something. Everyone feels it differently. Some feel it as pressure, heat, cold, or just...something. If you can't feel anything, try moving your hand towards and away from your arm. You could also try switching your hand and arm. Some people say that you have a receptive and projecting hand (while I personally think this is just a self-made limitation, it doesn't hurt to try).
Activity #2 - Raising Energy
1. Once you can feel the energy with your hand, try imagining massive amounts of energy building up in your cupped hands. Don't tense when you do this, the effort should be purely mental.
1a. If you are familiar with a ritual such as the Middle Pillar, you can use this to raise energy as well.
2. As you do this, look into your cupped hands. Some people can see something like a haze or a glow like the aura, wherever they have produced energy.
3. Feel the energy you've raised dissipating out into the air.
Activity #3 - Moving Energy From Hand To Hand
1. Raise energy like in the previous activity, but this time, only in one hand.
2. When you feel you've raised enough (it's instinctual), hold your hands close to each other, about 6 inches apart.
3. With your mind, transfer all the energy you've gathered on your hand to the other.
4. Once you've done this, try activity #1 on the hand you've transferred it to.
5. After you're done, feel the energy dissipating harmlessly into the air.
Activity #4 - Moving Energy Away From Your Body
1. Raise energy like normal.
2. Transfer the energy from the point of your index finger to a plain white piece of paper.
3. Examine the paper afterwards, look at its aura, try to see the energy, and try activity #1.
4. Let the unreleased energy dissipate like normal.
