Question

how to get your energy into spellwork

Answer 1

It's all about concentration and visualization

Answer 2

Focus and patience.

During the process of the ritual or spell (no matter what it is - candle spell, incantation, ritual, etc) you have to focus the intent of what you want to happen.

Usually (everyone is different) I would place my left hand over the object (giving energy hand) and feel the energy ball up in the palm. It makes a pull feeling (like if magnetic). I would then verbalize the energy into the object (candles, or whatever object is used for the spell work).

To place energy (especially concentrated) takes time, practice, and patience. You have to work with the energy in you body first. There are many different techniques you could use to achieve this goal.

1) the candle.

Light a candle (doesn't matter what color) and place your palm by the flame. Not so you burn yourself, but so you can freely distribute energy from your palm to the flame. Focus the nergy from your hand to the flame and think about something. You will see that the flame will react to positive and negative energy and thoughts created by the energy.

2) A person (requires you and another person).

Sit cross-legged across from each other (facing each other) where your knees are almost touching. The other person will bring out their right hand with palm up and you will put your left hand with palm down, over theirs. Do not touch but leave about an inch or two of space between.

Concentrate on focusing the energy of your hand to touch the other person's palm. Think of something like happiness, sadness, or anger to start with. When you mix emotions with your energy you will see very good results in projecting your energy out into something else.

Listen to Cat - she has the right idea. Rub your hands together faster and faster for about 20 secs. then suddenly stop and pull your hands apart about 2 inches, cup the air in between your hands, if you very gently pat that air you will feel a very faint resistance - don't crush it, don't be a brute - and you will feel the energy, pretend your hands are butterfly wings brushing a flower petal to get the idea of how you want touch, don't thunder your hands together like an elephant stampede. this is how I had to explain it to my sister in order for her to be able to feel it, because she was clapping. Once you can feel it, play with it. You should read Wicca A Guide for the Solitary Practitioner by Scott Cunningham, it'll help you out in this area, then read Rainbow Medicine A Visionary Guide to Native American Shamanism, it will help you with color work, and if you haven't started journalling yet, now is the time. Good luck.

Answer 4

"Play" with your energy. I use a crystal. Visualize the energy moving. Collect it in you hand. Push it through the crystal to the other hand. Put it in the crystal and pull it back. Take the crystal out and make a ball of energy between your cupped hands. Start small and make it gradually larger. Just play. Get comfortable with it. The next time you need to gather and send it, it won't be so difficult.

Answer 5

I believe your problem is trying to "get the energy" to do something. In the end, energy is something you work with. You don't create it or force it into things.

There's more power in that than it sounds. When you work with that energy a while, you learn about it, you find out what it does on it's own. That's power.

Answer 6

Energy is directed by intention, thought, and emotion. Any of those things will move it for you but for effectiveness you should have all three. I.E. to make energy go somewhere, you intend for it to happen, feel a relevant emotion, and think about where you want it to go.

Answer 7

If you don't know you probably need to find someone who has some experience in the matter, one-on-one.

Reading a lot might also help.

The reading list below can act as a source for you. Most of the titles can be found in your local library. If they don't have them they can borrow them from another library.

Answer 8

The easiest way is to evoke an emotional response. We are already familiar with emotional energy, so it is good way to learn.

Answer 9

You shouldn't ask,you should know if not it might come back and bite you in the Mirada if you get my drift.Besides spells work best on ourselves that way we effect everyone with what we emit.

Answer 10

Practice makes perfect. I'm learning the same way as you.

Answer 11

focus energy on your intent, and don't think it's going to work. KNOW it's going to work. you have to have full intent of what you want and make it happen.
