Picking up energies, Under development Options

I have never been good at picking up energies as a felt sense, but I get visuals in my head; after a really good LBRP for instance, I get excellent head stuff.

I had the same during a healing class, I couldn't feel a thing, but in my head, I could see the problem in the mans ankle and foot area, so I put my hands near there and apparently he felt a great energy - I could feel nothing.

Also when people can feel energy between their hands, mine just go together with no resistance.

Is this due to my under development or my lack of ability to sense energies?

Any sensible thoughts welcome.

Metaphorically speaking maybe you're left handed were others are right.

If you can't feel energy or move it then your not even programming it much, why because when you try to feel it, usually your mind with change it's quality's natural, making it(hotter/colder etc) and you should then feel something.

So if you want to feel it, then think cold like water.

Energy is all about you, you are moving it even when you don't feel it:)

Ah, magnetic means something to me babyalien, I can feel something magnetic but my hands have to be quite far apart.

Maybe all is not lost after all. I am off to consider magnetic feelings after ritual now (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Well, you should just keep on practicing trying to feel energy and you should eventually feel it as if it were plain as day. Practice helps a lot! So good luck with this! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Thank you Wiseone, I think I had just been so wrapped up in what I could see that I often did not take notice of what I could feel. My mind is a busy place you know (IMG:style_emoticons/default/13.gif)

Perhaps you have been too focused on not feeling and only seeing. Try to take a step back from this and not try so hard. For the longest time, I had such trouble doing psi balls for healing, then a friend said "stop trying so hard" I (of course) got annoyed and said screw it and quit. When I came back to it I told myself "doesn't matter whatever" and damn if it didn't work and I have been not having any trouble with it since. it is hard to make the mind be quiet and stop focusing on one particular thing, but sometimes that is all you need. An exercise that I was taught a while ago (that may be of help) was that if you can see it in your head, mentally push the image down to your hands and retain the visualization in your hands until you can no longer see it but rather feel it. You may see the energy in differing hues and colors, but it should coincide with the visual image in your mind. Anyway, hope that makes sense and helps a bit.

One thing you may consider is that energy percieved thorugh different senses enables you to percieve slightly different qualities - hence there will be some things percievable through the visual sense that are not available for those who can only percieve energy bei feeling it.

(And vice versa of course, but when you start with one sense available you may as well exploit it.)

See what I mean? :-)

Feeling nothing's actually something of a gift in itself. It's great for healing. I'm from the if it's not broken don't fix it school. If one is suceeding with a minimal amount of feeling continue to develop the imagination or what not and eventually things will fall into place. I don't know if anyone here has ever taken that test about the kind of learner you are. Auditory, visual, etc, etc. We all possess attributes of each learning style yet one is predominant (according to the test)There are many types of magic, one branch will eventually lead to another providing you follow all the way to the end.

Do you have a link to the test?

I don't believe feeling energy is anything to worry about, just because don't have a strong sense of feeling when work with energy doesn't not mean you aren't affecting it. When I started psionics I had the worst problem with visulization, the only way I could get really good results was by doing it while I was under a deep meditative state. This lasted for about a year and even though I had trouble I still got the same results as other people who claimed that visulisation was one of the most important things when practicing psionics.

Just keep practicing and I'm sure you'll get a feel for it in no time (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohyeah.gif)

Some people get visuals, others get sensations, or auditory. Primarily I get sensations, and only occasionally get visual phenomenom. You can try to develop these other areas, but personally if I were visually oriented I would work on seeing energy as in seeing auras and such. It would be just as useful as feeling.

You sound like you're trying to deal with the same thing I've dealt with. I couldn't "feel" much of anything, but boy did I get some crazy images I could "see".

In all honesty, you are probably "feeling" just fine, you just interpret the energies in a different way. I worked with a woman once that swore up, down, and sideways that she "felt" nothing when working with energies, but you could look at her face and see it in her eyes and her expression that the energies were definitely having some effect.

My advice, don't worry about it so much.

Another piece of advice, if you seem to be able to "see" more readily than "feel" perhaps you should exercise your "sight" more than your "touch".

I've already stated what most have already, so I'll end here. Good luck, and let us know how you do. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/help.gif)

You can find someone who is willing to practice with you, you can even use the internet, I prefer my MSN messanger so I can relax in my favorite chair.

Send someone energy, have them then send it back. Only after adding to it and modifying it though. Or simply changing the original qualities it contained.

It worked for me, I would even be willing to help...As long as I don't have to do much actaul work (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Clairsentience which is the sensing of energy is indeed a different sense than projecting energy fo heal or simply opening self like a straw to allow enegy to flow through you from angels or healing guides or universal energy .You can develop both of course . If you would like to sense or feel energy better than practice psionics especially making spheres which can be imbibed with intention and sent as angel balls . With this sort or practice you develop your ability to project energy and to sense it . Open with protection .

Evoke your highest source and angels . Call them in humbly to come close to you now . Then bring energy down from the crown out into the palms with the arms spread out wide . Now bring the palms facing each other and pull your hands back and forth feeling the energy . Shape it like a snowball or a ball of dough, rolling it and patting it . Then visualise good intentions of love , hope , support , encouragement and tap it into the air lightly when it feels like a ball with the name of the receiver said aloud to the angels .

Play with energy spheres google psionics and learn .
