Hi guys,
I was wondering, how do you do it? Visualization? Ritual? Both or neither? What thoughts/images do you have while doing so?

Blessed be,

While I'm not prepared to completely reveal the technique and nature of my shielding to everybody I basically make a construct that serves the purpose of shielding me with many layers with many different functions woven in - look at it like a cocoon that you can modify at will and whose threads you can direct toward a particular function - you might want an alarm or something, so put a layer in the cocoon that will alert you when enemies are near. Make it easy to add layers when you want to, and build it to your specification. I usually make the cocoon out of something that will hurt evil - pure light, pure fire, something akin to that.

Additionally, I sometimes form constructs around articles of jewelry or clothing - I have a necklace with a construct attached to it that will work to pacify violent emotions around me - basically, calm people down. It's been overpowered recently, so I'm working on beefing it up.
