Shadows Options

i was on another forum about psi and i heard a person say something about umbra kinesis, they said that umbra kinesis would allow a person to manipulate shadows. from what i know you can't actually manipulate shadows because shadows don't have any substance but if you created a way that could bend or repel light you could turn an area around anything as black as night.

i was wondering if anyone here could help me out and explain to me or recommend a book that would help me.

Thanks,
night

Telempath, there was a good reason why I added "in my personal practice". It was because I am not only talking from the view of someone that works with psy, but also from the side of one who practices magick in general and manny other practices.
Thanks for explaining the term to me. Though personaly if I didnt know it, or what people are refering to or talking about, I would most likely first have said so or asked\implied that I am in need of an explanation. (wether or not I performed this or instead someone else did, does not imply the lack of knowledge or understanding. Maybe just a lack of intrest. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/13.gif) )

Having said that. Please, pay attention to what I am saying(even though I must admit my english is far from perfect, being far from my native language) so our conversations may be more pleasent. At least from my side, so far, as it seems. Since your replys put me in wierd positions, like I didnt even know what I was writing about but just had to anyway.

So sorry for missleading you. In the case I am not writing correctly or putting down my thoughts in a manner that does not explain them very well. It is not my intention. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Though if I feel I need correction or explanations, again, I would ask for them.

I would suggest instead to just ask me for a clarification or a method if you are unclear of what I meant. I will gladly share what I know in a way that might be, simply put, unfamillier to you. I do the same, and it is no shame.

(if it helps, In matters which I do not understand I prefer to keep silent and just observe the conversation and how it develops. So I am better equipped to join it at another time. ^^ )

My last remark, which was intended in humor of course, was simply to add that considering the large ammount of phisical elements would eventualy lead to having a massive head ache(or just waste a lot of time). Instead if you looked at the fammilier energetic systems(at least fammilier for me, personaly), from a more magick orianted point of view, you can achieve the same results but with less effort through a technique that simply puts aside the phisical and relyes on the more energetic side of things. Getting you the same result but through diffrent means. (relying on the theory that everything is basicaly energy, wether we can determine the phisical shape and form by diffrent scientific means or not)
That was my intention. A perspective that might not fit in the convential topics in these forums of psy and such. I can understand why it confused you, though again I would ask you kindly to ask me for an explanation before telling me what I meant to say.
