What is Energy Manipulation?

Energy Manipulation (EM), otherwise known as Energy Work refers to the manipulation of spiritual energies via intention, will, and visualisation in order to achieve a purpose. Energy at its fundamental level is the basis for all spiritual pursuits, including all forms of magic. Magic in its essence is a conduit, a means of harnessing spiritual energy for a more defined and/or refined purpose. When we take away the components of magic, and break it down, all we’re left with is the movement of spiritual energy as dictated by a purpose.

EM is the core mechanism by which spiritual entities utilise their own energies to manifest, conjure, shield, heal, attack, live, project, teleport across locations, communicate telepathically, use psychic abilities - do literally ANYTHING!* It is the lifeblood of existence. Therefore, learning to utilise Energy Manipulation, we are learning to use our inherent lifeblood; our inner strength, and the extension of our being to manipulate the universe around us. Our energies are our own, an integral part of all we are.

*We too, are spiritual entities. The only difference between us and a spirit is the presence of an incarnate / physical vessel.

Let's learn a bit more about the perspectives of EM!

Energy & You:

Perspective is everything in spiritual pursuits; it can mean the difference between knowing and understanding ('being one'). It can also be a limitation; serving to keep us stagnant. Adopt perspectives like you wear clothes. We wear thick clothes to keep warm in the wintry months, thin clothes to keep the heat at bay. So should we, adopt different perspectives to suit the situation at hand.

You must come to understand that your energies are a direct extension of you, your soul. They are an extension of everything you are. Your personality, your emotions, your willpower, aspirations, fears, dreams and more. Energy is no different to our physical muscles. It is a means by which we interact with the world; like our physical muscles and our limbs. How would we go about strengthening our arm? We would exercise, eat correctly and ensure that we receive adequate rest so that our muscles can rebuild and be stronger than ever before. So too, can this principle be applied to EM. The more that you utilise energy ('our spiritual muscles'), the stronger that 'spiritual muscle' becomes. Your spiritual senses, psychic abilities, and capability to control energy will improve. Over time, you will find that you're able to control larger quantities of energy without concentrating as hard.

But remember! We must always allow adequate rest, lest we injury ourselves and our energy system. If we overwork or strain this 'spiritual muscle', we can take leaps backwards as we'll be forced to have rest and heal properly.

Three Main Principles:

In order to efficiently practice Energy Manipulation, there are three main principles that must be understood.

1) Intention.

We must have a clear intention of what we're trying to do. It shouldn't be longer than 2 sentences (more complex practices, require broader intentions. But for now, keep it short and sweet).

I.e., 'I want to move my energy from my right shoulder to my right elbow.'

2) Will.

You must will it to be so. You will (willpower) your energy to perform the intended task. You will need to use your inner strength, direct the energies, use your mental willpower.

3) Visualisation*.

By visualising your energy performing the intended task, you are reinforcing both your intention and will. Visualisation is the binding force oftentimes for our practices.

*Some individuals struggle to visualise. It's simply not an avenue that is open to them. You can still perform magic & EM without visualisation. You simply might find it harder than someone who can readily do so.

In order to compensate for your lack of ability to visualise (imagine), try using a mood board or drawing out what you want to visualise. You might write a list or a brief summary of what you want to focus on. This way you can keep your eyes open and focus on this drawing or summary; providing a focal point for your practices. If able, try closing your eyes and imagining the image drawn physically.

That's all there is to it! Manipulating energy is a natural act. In past lifetimes, and even outside of incarnations, we have used EM all the time. It is as natural as breathing. As easy as walking.
