Working with energies part 3 of 4

“Pulling in” a specific person’s energy

In this post I am going to describe the processes I use when I ‘pull in’ and channel another person’s energy. I use this form of connecting to someone’s energy mostly when I am performing a distance Tarot or Rune reading.

Once I am connected to and channeling a person’s energy in this way. I am able to work with Tarot cards on their behalf. I can randomly select Runes or I can let the Runes “fall where they may” for a reading.

The method of the actual reading depends on the reason for the reading and not the channeling of my client’s energy.

What I need to make contact

What I need for this is the same as for when I am reaching out for a specific person’s energy:

• If I personally know the person I am going to be working with, then “finding” their energy is quite easy. From knowing them I already am familiar with their energy. All I need to do is reach out with my energy and connect to that person.
• If I am going to make a connection to someone I have never met before it takes a bit more time. The details I require from the person I am working with are his or her full name and date of birth. With these two details alone I will be able to make a connection to a specific person.

The process of connecting

• Step one: This step is the same as when I am reaching out for a specific person’s energy. I spend a moment on the name and details of the person I am going to be reaching out for.

During the connecting process and reading, I continually repeat my client’s details in order to build up and maintain a strong connection.

• Step two: I visualise an outline of a figure in front of me (male or female, depending on my client). There are no specific details and it is usually just the outline in a white or blue light.

Blue is the colour of the throat chakra and represents clear communication

• Step three: As in part 2, once I know who I am searching for, I send out ‘feelers’ to find and connect to the other person.

From part 2: I am doing this by sending out a strand of energy (or two) from myself, usually from my Third Eye and or Solar Plexus chakras. What I am doing is psychically feeling for that person’s energy. I will know once I have found the right energy because my personal energy has been charged to recognise it.

• Step Four: Once I have done this and I am connected to the other person, I then use these strands of energy to pull the other person’s energy towards me and into the figure I have previously imagined standing in front of me.

• Step Five: After I am connected to the person, I spend some time strengthening that connection. I continue to repeat the process and I watch as the energy in the figure before me becomes stronger. As it does, it will begin to grow brighter.

There needs to be enough energy to make a strong connection, but not too much energy so that it adversely affects the person I am working with.

At this point, I can work with the person’s energy for healing or blessings, or any kind of work where I would be ‘Charging’ the other person’s energy. After which I would return the energy back to its owner.

If I am going to continue working with the energy in order to channel it, I would then follow the following steps.

Steps to channeling someone else’s energy

• Step one: Now that I have visualised and created the Energy Form of the person I am going to be working with, I visualise a stream of energy flowing from the form’s crown chakra to mine. The energy needs to flow in a continuous uninterrupted stream.

• Step two: Once connected by the crown chakras, I visualise the energy flowing from my crown chakra, down my head and neck, down my arms and out through my hands.

Now that the person’s energy will be flowing through me and my hands, everything I touch will be affected by their energy.

• Step three: With the energy flowing out of my hands, I visualise it flowing back to the energy form and re-joining at the solar plexus. This creates a continuous cycle of energy.

The reason for creating a separate Energy Form is to protect the person I am working with. I could do this type of work by connecting directly in this way to my client but most of the time my clients are not used to this level of energy work.

By working this way, they are protected from the affects and feelings they might have that they may not understand. Examples of these are feeling feint or light-headed, feeling uneasy or any form of discomfort.

Once I am channelling the energy, I perform the work I need to do and then I close the connection and return the energy back to its owner. This step of the process must be done. I cannot leave energy, especially someone else’s simply “lying around” and open to outside influences. It is irresponsible to do so and can seriously affect the other person.

Process for stopping the energy flow:

• Step one: I visualise the energy flow from the crown chakra of the energy form stopping and no longer flowing to me.
• Step two: I visualise the last of the energy flowing through my body and arms and out through my hands and to the solar plexus of the energy form.
• Step three: I visualise the energy moving away from the energy form and gradually and gently going back to its owner.

This needs to be a gradual process. The sudden return of all of the energy to its owner can be alarming and unsettling.

• Step four: I slowly break my connection to the other person. I do this by visualising the connected energy and then watching it dissolve away. Or the connection being separated and each person’s energy returning to themselves (almost like watching a seed growing outward, but in reverse).

Most of the time my clients don’t completely understand the process of energy work but they place their TRUST in me. That trust us something that must be respected!

I'm New To Wicca - Tools for Spiritual Guidance

My eBook for kindle is now available on all Amazon websites. I am quite excited as it is my first completed esoteric book and I hope there will be many more to follow.

(Link to the book:
http://www.amazon.com/Im-New-Wicca-Spiritual-ebook/dp/B008GO7RXU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1344409343&sr=8-1&keywords=nathalie+beulah  )

It is a very short eBook and is suited ideally for those interested in getting into The Craft but who are not into reading.

It is called I'm New To Wicca - Tools for Spiritual Guidance by Nathalie Beulah.

What it is not:

• It is not a spell book
• It is not a book on rituals
• It is not a book on the history of Paganism and Wicca

What it is:

• It is a book that consists of four exercises to be performed over a period of four weeks.
• The aim of the eBook is to help the reader find themselves in their own Spirituality.
• The eBook will help you to feel more in touch with the Divine.
• Once you have completed working through the book, you, the reader will have a clearer understanding of your own Spirituality, how you feel about it and what path you are interested in following.

Some topics covered in the eBook:

• Your Spiritual Journal or Book of Shadows
• Spiritual Guidance Meditation
• Working with your dreams

I used the basic exercises I followed when I was first introduced to Wicca. These are the steps that helped me discover more of myself and where I would like to be spiritually. I hope it helps others too.

I wish you the Brightest of Blessings

Working with energies part 2 of 4

Reaching out for a specific person’s energy

In this post I am going to describe the process I use when reaching out to connect to a specific person’s energy. I use this method mostly when I performing a session for distance healing with Reiki.

I won’t go through what I do during the sessions because that is a completely different topic and you would need to go through some form of training in order to be able to successfully and responsibly perform distance healing.

Though healing isn’t necessarily the only reason you would use this process, it can be adapted and used for readings, spells and other forms of energy work.

Before you begin it is important to keep the following in mind, once you have connected to someone through their energy, your thoughts and emotions can deeply affect that person.

When you are attached to another person on that level you need to remain as neutral as possible. The beginning process as described in Part 1 will help you to achieve this state.

If for some reason you cannot become neutral and calm your own energies then the best possible action to take is none. Rather postpone your energy work than unnecessarily cause harm.

What I need to make contact

• If I personally know the person I am going to be working with, then “finding” their energy is quite easy. From knowing them I already am familiar with their energy. All I need to do is reach out with my energy and connect to that person.
• If I am going to make a connection to someone I have never met before it takes a bit more time. The details I require from the person I am working with are his or her full name and date of birth. With these two details alone I will be able to make a connection to a specific person.

The process of connecting

• Step one: I spend a moment on the name and details of the person I am going to be reaching out for. You can compare it to giving a bloodhound an item of clothing to get a person’s scent from. In this case my personal energy would be the bloodhound and the person’s details would be their scent.

In essence what I am doing at this stage is charging my energy so that it vibrates at the same frequency as the other person’s. This will help our energies to actually be attracted to each other.

• Step two: Once I know who I am searching for, I send out ‘feelers’ to find their scent. I am doing this by sending out a strand of energy (or two) from myself, usually from my Third Eye and or Solar Plexus chakras. What I am doing is psychically feeling for that person’s energy. I will know once I have found the right energy because my personal energy has been charged to recognise it.

When performing any type of energy work there is no room for uncertainty. You will know when you have connected to a specific person’s energy, do not doubt yourself.

When you are talking to someone on the phone, you don’t doubt who you are talking to and that you have a connection between the two phones. Energy work is the same. Once you are connected to a person you know that you are connected.

• Step three: After I am connected to the person, I spend some time strengthening that connection. I do this by concentrating on that person’s energy and repeating their name and date of birth over and over again. I do this until I feel a strong enough connection between us that will not be easily broken.

Step three is somewhat like watching a person in the distance walking closer and closer towards me. As the person comes closer, I can see them more clearly. With energy work, the stronger I make the connection, the more clearly I am able to “see” their energy in my mind’s eye.

When I am connected to a person’s energy, I am able to see and feel their energy quite clearly. In Reiki Healing sessions I have even felt minor pains in my physical body in the same places where my client would be feeling pain at that time. Before the session the client may not have told me about the problem, but I am still able to pick it up.

As soon as I am linked to a person I do the work I need to do to help that person, and when I am done I break the connection. If you are going to do energy work on this level, make sure that you take your time to slowly break the connection. An instant break in an energy bond can actually cause physical pain for both yourself and the client, for example; chest pains or headaches. This depends on the Chakra you are most strongly connected to.

Sometimes after energy work, even if you have gently broken the connection, the person on the receiving end might have a mild Third-Eye-Headache. This is natural and it happens because the person might not be used to dealing with this kind of energy or the amount of energy used.

As the practitioner, should this happen I need to know how to advise my clients on what to do. I am going to share with you my favourite remedies for an “energy induced” headache.

• I tell my client to ground themselves. The easiest way to do this is by eating or drinking something. If they are going to drink something, it must not contain any caffeine. I find a cup of camomile tea is best as it is calming and is also a natural anti-inflammatory.
• Rub a drop of lavender oil on each temple. Lavender works wonders for headaches and it is also calming and a natural anti-inflammatory.
• Place an amethyst over the third eye. If you do this when you have a headache, you should be able to feel the pressure of the headache begin to lift almost immediately.

Over time, and with a lot of practice, you will begin to realise the endless possibilities of what you can do with this type of energy work, please do so responsibly and use protection (as covered in part 1).

There is only one rule to keep in mind with any type of energy work involving other people.

You cannot work with anybody’s energy unless you have their permission to do so. If you cannot get their permission, then don’t do it.

Working with energies part 1 of 4

Introduction

I was recently asked what my process was with regards to performing distance readings with the Tarot and Runes. It really got me thinking about how best to explain what it is I did. I have been doing energy work for so long that perhaps I was taking how I did it for granted.

I spent a lot of time thinking about it and paying attention to what exactly I did when I did it. As a result I have come up with a system to not only explain what it is I do but to hopefully have a way to help others who may be looking to do similar energy work.

There are three methods I use. The method I use will depend on the reason I am doing energy work, whether it be for a distance reading with the Tarot or Runes, or for a Reiki healing session.

These three methods are:

• Reaching out to connect to a specific person’s energy. This is the one I use the most often during distance Reiki and healing sessions.
• Drawing a specific person’s energy to me and channeling it to flow through me. This is the process I use most often when performing distance readings for my clients.
• Working with the energies of a group of people. This is an extension of both the previously mentioned methods.

Over the next few days I will be writing about and taking you through each step:

• Post 1: Introduction and beginning process
• Post 2: Reaching out for a specific person’s energy
• Post 3: Pulling in a specific person’s energy
• Post 4: If I can connect to one, I can connect to many: working with the energy of a group of people

How to Begin

Here are the steps I take before beginning any type of energy work, and especially distance energy work.

Make sure you are in a comfortable position and won’t be easily distracted!

• Step one: Lie or sit down and ground yourself. I usually do this by visualizing roots extending from the base of my spine and digging themselves deep into the earth below me.

For readings, sit comfortably in front of your work area. You are entering into a meditative state, which you don’t want to break by getting up and moving!

• Step two: Visualize a shell of protective white light forming around you. Inside the shell of white light, visualize yourself surrounded by golden, protective and healing light.

I do not move on to the last two steps until I feel that the first two steps have been thoroughly completed, and I am grounded and safe.

• Step three: Take five long deep breaths in and out. Let your mind and body begin to calm down as you start to enter into a meditative state.

• Step four: Concentrate on relaxing the muscles in your body. I take time to relax every part of my body, from my toes to my shoulders and from my fingers to my neck, followed by my head and face.

The slow repetition of the fourth and final step actually serves two purposes. The first is to relax your body. The second is the almost hypnotic repetition allows you to enter into a deeper state of meditation.

Once you are in a calm, meditative state, you are open to work with energy on a completely different level. In a way you are ‘removing’ physical obstacles and limitations and working on a purely energetic level.

You can use this opening process as a basic meditation. Once you have gone through the four steps, sit quietly and listen to the unseen. You might gain some insight or wisdom!
