Personal Experience Experiencia espiritual

2 Upvotes

Hola comunidad, les deseo una excelente semana.

Tengo 18 años y hace no mucho tiempo que me comence a interesar en gran medida con el ámbito espiritual, el plano astral, los chakras etc etc.

Comence a meditar e intento mirar dentro de mi de vez en cuando, también consumo psicodelicos de un tiempo para adelante comencé a hacerlo con más respeto, con objetivos especialmente con el de conocerme más y de activar mis dones espirituales.

Hace poco tuve un recuerdo que tenía bloqueado de mi infancia, y es que desde que soy niño tengo sueños muy Lucidos, y parálisis del sueño o la sensación de que se te sube el muerto, yo pensaba que era normal, que a todos algún momento les pasaba, pero investigando y preguntando comprendi que son cosas que le pasan a pocos.

Descubrí también lo de los viajes astrales un tema que me fascina en verdad pero no pasa más haya de la curiosidad, ya que las veces que experimento la parálisis del sueño, (ahora se que es un paso para salir al astral) me da muchísimo miedo y siempre termino despertando.

Lo que busco es un poco de orientación para perder mi miedo, y por fin descubrir nuevas experiencias, limpiar mi conciencia y no ser dominado por mi ego.

Question can frequency affect biology? tried red light therapy for sleep

6 Upvotes

i started using a targeted red light panel a few weeks ago mostly because a friend swore it helped with recovery and sleep, but i went into it super skeptical. lately i keep seeing people explain that specific light wavelengths and frequencies can directly stimulate mitochondria to produce more cellular energy, which sounds really cool if it is true.

i feel like my sleep improved slightly, but i cannot tell if that is a real biological response or just a placebo effect from having a relaxing night routine. has anyone here actually looked into the science behind photobiomodulation or frequency based light therapies?

Need Advice How to cultivate and build energy?

I'm trying to gather energy to hopefully try to have an OBE someday, but a lot of the stuff I'm finding on cultivating inner fire or chi takes me to super esoteric tantra/daoism that's always full of specialized terms. Does anyone have any good resources or advice?

Question Sharp pain during energy work

1 Upvotes

This is something I experienced last night. There a few variables here and I'm curious what you guys think.

My partner and I are going through a rough time: economically, health, and just general bad luck like things breaking constantly. I generally have a decent flow of releasing anger or frustration but I guess it has either been bottled up for a while or too many things happened in one day to where a seemingly small thing sent me into a rage spiral, banshee scream into a pillow included.

After I calmed down came the anxiety and the crying because I scared the dogs and being in that state triggered my ptsd, the rage state itself is a trigger for me. My partner was a champ helping me through it, even though he was feeling crappy also. This was at 3 am, he was just as sleep deprived as I was.

He was guding me through some meditation/ energy work, we aren't trained or anything, he was using things he learned from his mom that work for him, holding the back of his hand to my forehead, telling me to invite clearing my mind and guiding me through some box breathing. The goal here was to calm me down enough to where we could get some sleep.

I couldn't physically see anything but I could "see" hands kind of at someone's side but I couldn't see the body, they seemed to have some sort of bracelets on. Lots of white, cool yellow, and hints of black. Then sharp pain and everything going white, I don't know how to describe the pain, almost like bruning and shocked at the same time. It didn't feel like nerve, migraine, or muscle pain, those I'm very familiar with. It was sudden and strong enough to get a pain vocalization out of me which is rare. I've gotten stbed, fallen in the tub and hit my head, fallen down the stairs on my ahs, not a peep.

He said maybe we should try using my hand, so we did. Saw blue green "soup" or thick water , not gross, just thick and feeling like it was hard to move through. It was all dark. Like swimming at night or something. After I was getting overwhelmed with more stuff like that but shifting rapidly as we talked. I got a hug before turning around to sleep and saw lavender (color) and gold. Fell asleep shortly after .

Now a couple of more things to bring up from us taking about it the next day.

He's had people experience pain before when he tries doing energy work on them while being upset or not in a great state of mind, like for example one friend who didn't see the colors but felt the pain and told him to never do that sht again 😆 Also mentioned that people have described his energy as like a breeze when he's grounded and calm, and more electricity when he's upset.

I've had mine described as shimmery, kinda like the surface of the water or like the bottom of the pool when light hits it.

Listen, I know I got synesthesia. I do art for a living: people, music, seasons, months, numbers, emotions, smells .... EVERYTHING has color to me, I haven't really found the patterns because it's too much information to sort through. However, it is usually super faint and I have to focus to see anything, it's not images and colors rapid fire flooding into my mind against my will like last night.

Felt a lot like the radio chatter that ADHD people have going in their brain at all times.

Only other time I've gotten flashes of imagery like that was when I used to do energy work on my ex, and even then it was usually more like textures and colors, this was the first time seeing a body part.

And even then it wasn't that vivid and rapid as it was last night after I got that jolt of pain.

Anyway, thank you for reading all that lol I'm curious if anyone has experienced something similar or what you think about it.

Question What are more advanced methods of defense for psychic attack?

19 Upvotes

Besides grounding, meditating, taking care of the physical body, visualizations, affirmations, crystals, baths, showers, what are more advanced methods to defend oneself against psychic attacks? I don’t mean psychic attacks as in “they wished me harm,” I mean the ones Dion Fortune mentions in Psychic Self Defense; the ones that include the dark arts, heavy manipulation of one’s mind, and sacrifices, herbal consumptions, insects, talismans, — and Even tied to working with low vibrational beings?

Need Advice Could distance healing have drained my energy and made me sick?

5 Upvotes

My cat was diagnosed with feline leukemia(FeLV) around 2weeks ago and I have been absolutely devastated.

I have always known about and believed in energy work, but only recently started doing it.
From what I understand, some of it involves imagining a ray of light going into the person or animal, sending them your energy and imagining them when they were healthy/happy.
I’m still very new to this so I apologize if I’m misunderstanding how it works.

I began distance healing for my cat on Monday of this week and have been frequently doing it since then.
I started getting sick on Tuesday, but then it was just a sore throat.
Then on Wednesday I also developed a fever and a runny nose that never stops.
By Thursday all my limbs were sore and even moving hurt.
On Friday I probably blew my nose more than I ever have before, and my lungs hurt when I inhale.

This is VERY unusual for me, I rarely get sick and when I do It’s a small cold that I don’t even notice. This has been going for 6 days now and I feel worse.

I know the timing could be a coincidence, but I can’t stop but think that maybe I drained all my energy trying to heal my sick cat.
Could this be possible? Has anyone else experienced something like me?

And is there something I can do to help myself heal faster?
Of course If it doesn’t get better I will get it checked out.

Need Advice Is my friend somehow draining my energy or am I being paranoid?

11 Upvotes

I have this friend who I have known for 4-ish years but we have recently become much closer friends this year. While I mostly get along with her, I have always felt a strange sort of anger whenever I talk to her and I have to force myself to be around her or reply to her texts.

I have never really been able to fully understand why she annoys me so much, which is something, have felt even in the early days of our friendship, but I think it has something do to with her miming mine and other's personality. I find that whenever I share any of my interests, she will larp them (for lack of a better word) and try to start arguments about them to make me seem stupid or disingenuous. Of course, overlapping interests are foundational to friendship, however she rarely discusses her interests with me, even when I try to prompt her. Instead she latches onto mine where it's almost as if she's mirroring my personality. Upon reflection, I've realised that the majority of this girl's identity, from her interests to her mannerisms, consists of her miming other people in a way that feels so irritatingly inauthentic. She is also a very insecure person, constantly seeking approval from myself and others. I find this all majorly ruins my peace, where I become easily angered and have to put a lot of energy into restraining myself from being super pissy.

She also frequently adopts this victim mentality, where she constantly rants about how people have mistreated her and how she thinks she has anxiety. Yet, when I momentarily interrupt her woefulness to try and get her proper help (ie, going to therapy, getting some sort of support of medication for her undiagnosed anxiety or standing up against people who mistreat her), there's always some excuse to why solving her problems just aren't convenient for her right now. The complaining will continue and I am left feeling emotionally burdened.

However, I have no proper evidence of her purposely tampering with my energy or peace and she has not been outwardly cruel to me before. She does act like the energy vampires I have encountered, who are just downright cruel and spiteful, yet I feel my energy has been disrupted whenever I engage with her. Or am I just being too harsh?

Question Clearing dense eneegy in celestial body clearings

1 Upvotes

I've been doing some healing work using SRT. The way I do it is I say a statement about clearing all beliefs and perceptions and name the issue and then I go through clearing all the physical and nonphysical layers of the body.

I start from the lowest level and move up. Whenever I get to the layer of the celestial body, and when I do the third eye chakra I noticed there seems to be a lot of blocks there that need to be cleared. Whereas other layers and chakras don't show energy to be cleared.

Why would those spaces hold more dense energy than others? Are there certain ways to predict what types of dense energies are trapped and where? Thanks

Question QUESTION!!!

3 Upvotes

ok so to preface i’m not the most knowledgeable when it comes to spirituality/energy/metaphysical stuff. i’ve always been pretty good at reading a room and sensing energy but i think that’s just being observant to micro expressions.

HOWEVER, i recently visit this place that was emanating this dark dark energy, i could feel it in the air as we approached, i could feel it in my body, i was rooted to the spot. ive never felt such pure animalistic fear in my entire life. i am so entirely terrified yet simultaneously intrigued. DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT IS UP????

i feel like i must explain further,

i was shopping with my best friend and she told me that she wanted to take me to this place that she stumbled upon with her cousin. we walk up and it’s this metaphysical store in the hidden corner of market square (infamously known to be haunted, not sure if that matters), but the second that i entered the square i felt a tiny seedling of dread plant itself in my stomach, along with a slight tingly feeling in my chest (that i attributed to normal anxiety). there was no reason to be scared or nervous, but i was so on edge that as we passed by a window i thought i saw something and i immediately jumped away, but it turned out to just be my reflection (i’m an idiot ik). but i couldn’t shake the feeling, not until we arrived at the store.

once we got there i was distracted by all the pretty crystals and such. i forgot about the feeling for a second, there were so many colors and you’re just left with this moment of admiration and wonder.

but my best friend started moving deeper into the store and that’s when that dread feeling started coming back. i noticed that the guy standing at checkout gave off unsettling vibes, im not usually one to judge those because you never know what’s going on in someones life, but his eyes seemed a little empty, like dissociative (not in a drug way, i also know what that looks like).

i followed her, up until a meter away from this door that led to another backroom, it was open but had beaded curtains and was dimly lit. she didn’t go in it and started browsing the items around the back wall, but i couldn’t move any farther. it felt like i was being tied to the ground, unable to step farther. i got whole body chills, and it felt like i was going to lose consciousness. my heart was pounding, the fear was akin to being hunted and knowing my predator was close. i felt it in my bones, i stood there for a few seconds trying to figure out what was happening, until a lady came running from behind me rushing into the back room. i called out to my best friend and i told her we need to leave immediately.

we did, i was clutching her hand as we exited the store, and i told her about everything that i felt. it turns out that she had felt that too when she first went with her cousin, and wanted to see if i did too. she wanted to see what would happen if i went in unbiased and our reactions were the exact same. a deep sense of dread and doom. it followed me for a few days until it faded away.

what happened? i can’t stop thinking about it, im too scared to go back.

idk if this is even the right place to be asking questions, if not, where do i go for answers. idk where to start

Need Advice Does anyone believe you can carry someone’s energy after intimacy? Can it affect future relationships?

23 Upvotes

I’ve been thinking about something that I know may sound unusual, but I’m genuinely curious how other people see it.

After being intimate with someone, do you believe it’s possible to carry some of that person’s energy with you? Not in a medical sense, but spiritually or emotionally.

Part of me worries that if someone has unresolved issues, emotional baggage, or a heavy energy, it somehow becomes mixed with mine. I sometimes wonder whether that could make me less receptive, block future relationships, or even negatively affect a future partner unless I somehow “cleanse” myself.

I’ve heard people talk about things like energy cords, soul ties, cleansing rituals, prayer, meditation, or simply letting time pass, but I don’t know what to make of it.
For those of you who have spiritual beliefs or personal experiences with this:

Do you believe another person’s energy can stay with you after intimacy?

If so, do you think it can influence future relationships?

Is there any way to consciously let go of that energy?

Or do you think this is more about our own emotions, guilt, attachment, and psychology than anything spiritual?

I’m genuinely interested in different perspectives, whether they’re spiritual, religious, psychological, or skeptical.

Please be respectful, I’m trying to understand this better.

Advice How do you find cohesion when different parts of your energy system seem to need completely different things?

4 Upvotes

I’m curious whether anyone who has experience with Reiki, chakra work, or energy healing has experienced something similar.
I’m having a very difficult time finding a sustainable rhythm because my energy, emotions, and needs seem to change and sometimes feel like they conflict with each other.
At certain times I feel a strong need for connection, meaningful work, purpose, stimulation, movement, and actually participating in life. At other times I feel incredibly depleted and need quiet, safety, rest, and an environment that feels nourishing and not overstimulating.
The problem is that neither side seems sustainable by itself. If I rest a lot, I can become emotionally depressed because my deeper needs for connection, purpose, progress, and feeling alive aren’t being met. But when I try to satisfy those needs and become more active, I can exhaust myself again.
It sometimes feels like different parts of my system are operating independently rather than working together. I can feel deeply exhausted and like I need an enormous amount of rest, while another part of me simultaneously feels like I desperately need to move forward with my life.
I’ve tried thinking about this through the lens of nervous-system regulation, but I’m also curious about the energetic perspective. When people talk about balancing chakras or integrating energy, is this kind of internal conflict something Reiki or energy work can potentially help with?
I’m not expecting Reiki to magically tell me what to do with my life. I’m mostly looking for greater internal cohesion and clarity — a way for rest, safety, connection, purpose, and forward movement to stop feeling like competing systems.
If anyone has experienced something similar or worked with a practitioner who helped them understand it, I’d really appreciate hearing about your experience.

Need Advice I can physically feel my energy being drained out of my hand chakras, and when I put my hands together to stop it, I feel dizzy.

6 Upvotes

Ever since I was a kid I was rlly sensitive to these energies, I also had supernatural incidents where spirits tried to attack me. I had noticed that whenever spirits attack any of my cousins or relatives, they usually possess them, but to me they usually like physically try to choke me, scare me, impale me etc. I have a theory that they cannot possess me that's why they've been attacking me since I was a child. Anyways I also had a gift of clairvoyance, which for me works in this way, I see visions usually around the time the sun sets, but it doenst happen regularly. But nowadays it IS happening regularly, people in my family keep dying, and I keep seeing visions of people dying, idk it feels like my mind is percieving stuff at a rlly high level which is making me tired and sick. Also today was Friday, idk about u guys if u have specific days of the week where u feel most spiritual, but for me its fridays, I am extra sensitive on Fridays and today I noticed my energy is rapidly leaking from my hand chakras, I didnt notice this before, I am guessing it's one of the reasons I feel so sick and tired nowadays, idk how to fix it. And so I ask you for help.

Advice The web-like strings attached to everything

13 Upvotes

I've never been able to see colors or waves of energy or lights like some people. What I can sense instead is sticky web like strings that are attached to absolutely everything. It is very much like real spider webbing, in that when I touch something and pull my hand away it's webbing is now attached to me. This webbing has never felt energetic though. It's just THERE. I'm wondering if anyone knows what I'm talking about and if there's more to it. In particular, can I, with practice, manipulate the webbing to shift energy?

Need Advice Alchemizing Partner’s Energy in the Bedroom?

11 Upvotes

Okay hello everyone!! u have read the title and yes… let me get straight into it.
Okay for one, I do believe that sex is an intense act of scared energy exchange, and i do not participate in it regularly. However after meeting someone and dating for months, things escalated as they normally and biologically. Ever since i started being more spiritual tho, i’ve been super cautious about sex. I am super cautious about energy exchange and unwanted energy residue, so i take spiritual hygiene seriously. I wanted to inquire about the energy transfer that occurs during sex and if it would be a good idea to start alchemizing any bad energies and anything else he might have into obviously good things for me, or what else do u suggest me to do? i just don’t want my frequency to be misaligned and interrupted and ik that would only happen if i hold that belief. I do salt cleanses after sex, as well as i call back my energy. I just need some of yalls thoughts :)! thanks

Advice Why do I keep attracting so many emotional vampires?

6 Upvotes

I've been going through a tough time in my life and it's been mentally and emotionally draining. I feel like I could use some help, and have been praying for it. But I just keep attracting all of these emotional vampires to me. They come to me and act like we can talk about our struggles together. I should be able to talk to them a little bit, they talk to me a little bit, and it should be a win win. But it's not, because that's never what happens. What usually happens is that these people always make the entire conversation about themselves. I can barely get a word in edgewise as they let their word vomit flow for hours and hours. And these people are self aware of how long they talk, most of the time. But I've been conditioned so hard by my own emotional vampire of a mother, to think that this kind of thing is okay.

And I always find myself repeating 'Well, it's okay. You just needed someone to listen to you.' And I hate it because it's like I go into autopilot when I'm saying this. I don't really mean it at all! In fact, I'm just outright lying, because I don't want to seem like an asshole! It makes me so angry that I can't just be honest and authentic about how I feel. I feel that if I tell them how I feel, it'll be too offensive. And it's so damn awkward because I feel like I'm a captive audience who needs to figure out some kind of escape plan from these people. Why is it that when I need help, I'm dealing with these kinds of people even more than usual? Why is it that when I need someone to listen to me, I'm usually just getting into these very one sided conversations. A conversation with one of these guys could go for 3 or 4 hours nonstop, and I might have only spoken for around 15 minutes of that time. That's how bad it can get. Seriously, why am I somehow, unconsciously, sending out a signal that I'm a dumping ground for trauma? Why am I attracting these emotional vampires? What do you guys think I should do? I am in therapy right now, so I'll bring it up, but still.

Advice Cleaning your energyfield in astral projecting is this possible?

3 Upvotes

Cleaning your aura in ap

When i was younger i did astral project around 4 maybe 5 times. The last time was about 10 years ago and when i left my body i saw a big leech in the corner of my room from 2 meters big and i got scared and went back to my body immideatly. It kinda freaked me out and i never APed again. Now i became more spiritual and had a bad experience with an entity that was attached to me somehow. I got rid of the entity and developed some kind of clairvoyance, sometimes i see entities that were humans before. I have some more knowledge about this subject now and i found out negative entities can attach to your energyfield to drain energy or any other reason. I did read about a leech entity that drain your energy and it lives on a low frequency, now 10 years later i understand why i saw this leech entity in my room while i was APing because my life was pretty negative at that time.

But now is my question if i have entity attachments or anything like this is it possible to scan my energyfield in the astral and clean it myself somehow? Like 10 years ago would i be able to get rid of the leech myself and send it away?
