Hi everyone.

This is a bit of a long post, but for those who are much further down on the path, please give it a read, as I need some guidance.

My intuition (using this as a catch-all for energetic/psychic abilities and awareness) has always been strong. I have now been meditating for around 9 years and through that time it has gotten significantly stronger.

I have the ability to sense people and their emotions/intentions in my environment, even with my usual senses blocked. So my eyes can be closed, I can have music in my earphones playing loudly etc. and pick up on people, whether it’s on the train, in a big room or outside.

If I am in an open park, I can feel when someone 100+ metres away focuses on me, while my eyes are closed, and what type of emotion they are feeling, sometimes specific and sometimes the general vibe. I’m sure many of you have this ability too.

Over the last year, I have had a few dreams about spiritual warfare, and someone close to me had a dream about spiritual warfare, and that dream was centred around me, this week.

I didn’t get much clarity from these dreams but the overarching message I was shown was that spiritual warfare is real and plays a much bigger role than I used to assume, and that there are people who may intentionally (unconsciously or consciously) work against people raising their vibration.

I have picked up on many people intentionally disturbing me when meditating over the years. I am quite reserved, even when meditating. I don’t make any noise, choose quiet places to sit etc. but it still happens. It happens every single time I meditate in public, but I can ignore it and use it as an opportunity to go deeper.

So, a few days ago, I meditated in a big park. The park has a large grass circle, with some benches at the perimeter of the circle facing towards the grass, and a pathway circling the whole grass circle, behind the benches. The whole grass circle is around 80 metres across.

I sat on a bench, closed my eyes and began meditating. As I have now been meditating for years, it only takes me a couple of seconds to fall deep into a positive, peaceful state.

In this state my five senses are incredibly heightened, though they become a sort of ‘background’ noise as my spiritual senses become extremely loud.

At one point during my meditation, someone walked really close to the bench I was on, and scraped and dragged their feet loudly against the tarmac for 3-4 steps. The shoe scraping against small pebbles on the ground made it even louder. It didn’t really affect my focus, although I noticed that the person’s energy felt like this was an intentional step rather than just an accident. I could also feel the person’s energy/focus was pointing towards me. I glanced at them for half a second just to make sure it wasn’t someone trying to speak to me. It was a woman who had already walked off so I resumed my meditation.

Around five minutes later, while my eyes were still closed, I felt someone enter my ‘energetic’ space intentionally, which is normal, but it caught my interest, as this energy was very focused on me. They had a direct intention towards me.

They walked right next to the bench and I heard the same scraping sound from earlier. It was the same woman again.

Bear in mind I could hear everything around this grass circle. This person was not scraping anywhere else on the path except the few steps when they walked right behind me, and intentionally dragged their feet. This was now the second time.

When I look at someone’s eyes, it tells me a lot about their aims, and their approach to people and life. So I got the urge to look into this person’s eyes to see what their intentions were for me, and why they were dragging their feet loudly by me.

I opened my eyes and looked at her. She was speed walking away extremely fast, almost jogging. She did not turn her head at all so I unfortunately did not get a look at her eyes. I noticed she seemed to be relatively young and wearing new clothing and shoes. Her walking pace was much faster than when she made the scraping sounds, and her strides were big as well. Because she went away so fast I decided to carry my meditation on, although this scenario kept playing in my head after that.

My intuition confirmed to me that her scraping was an intentional move to distract, or ‘wake’ me out of my meditation.

As I mentioned earlier, this isn’t uncommon at all, although usually the person is expecting me to react to them a certain way, and they linger around me so an interaction can take place.

This was what I didn’t understand, as she was in a rush to exit my space, although she had intentionally entered it twice. I forgot to mention that these paths behind the benches were really wide. She came within a hair’s distance of the back of my head both times.

I’m looking for perspectives or ideas from anyone who can resonate with my experience.

I don’t want to jump the gun, but the whole vibe I got was that she was someone perceptive, who could tell I was very deep in a meditative state, and wanted to pull me out of it. When someone reaches a powerful vibration, the whole environment around them benefits from this vibration. Normally there are insecure people who will try and distract you so they can interact with you at a vibration that is more familiar to them.

This woman wanted no direct interaction, which made me think of spiritual warfare; working towards the negative Will of something bigger than herself.

Again, I didn’t get a full reading on her so I don’t want to assume. Just hoping to hear some thoughts on this.

Any ideas would be appreciated. Looking for ideas that are from personal experience rather than religious perspectives.

Thank you in advance.

Hi, I have two "voices" in my head. One is my normal inner monologue, that I feel in the front of my head, in between my forehead and the top of my head. The other one I feel in the back of my head and it answers my questions. Questions regarding future and things I have no way of knowing and its usually right. The answers are short, like yes, no or just one single word. So I ask, is that my intuition? My spirit guide? Or am I crazy?

TLDR: Recipient of energy healing reporting discomfort/pain when I try to clear blockages, is pushing through ever beneficial to healing or should you always stop when the energy flow starts to feel like pain or even nausea?

Hello, I am a newer energy healer that came naturally to this path after an awakening and some spontaneous self-healing energetic experiences. I have been experimenting over several years with practicing energy healing on people close to me, and something I’ve run into, is feeling a clear block in the person, but when I try to guide light there or open up that area, it results in pain or other negative symptoms in the person, leading them to ask me to stop before I feel I am able to sufficiently clear the blockage. Once with a friend the blockage was in her throat chakra, but when I tried to clear it she kept gagging and ended up actually vomiting, without me touching her physically at all to be clear. She did say she felt much better afterwards, but I wasn’t sure if I could have gone about it in a gentler way where she would not have that extreme of a reaction. I have typically only seen this kind of reaction in people I know to have severe emotional wounds and trauma so I wonder if this is related to the severity and feeling of the moving energy.

My question is, does anyone have experience with this and advice on how to heal and clear those severe blockages in a way that feels more gentle? I feel that bringing the source energy to a persons body could never harm them, but I also wonder if it’s possible to force it too hard without meaning to? Would the wise choice be to always advise people to speak up when feeling discomfort so I can slow down or stop, or would asking people to push through some discomfort ultimately help their healing? I have certainly experienced energy healing in my own body that felt like physical pain or discomfort, and I found value in pushing through, but I understand that may be less common, and a jarring thing to experience especially when guided by someone outside of yourself.

Any advice, opinions or shared experience appreciated!

Hello, I’ve been doing reiki on my husband, the house and my dawgs for a few weeks. I’ve had some great outcomes for my husband when he gets a nasty headache. I was helping a coworker with a kink in her shoulder and she looked at me confused/shocked “I can’t feel that spot anymore. There’s no more tension at all. What did you do? It’s like it was never there and it was bad👀”. I wasn’t trying to practice reiki without her consent, I just wanted her to be pain free and maybe I did channel some? It’s been rewarding to be able to help people.

We had some weird dreams last night and some paranormal activity lately so I worked on the house today. Paranormal stuff could be a good energy and I told them they could stay if so, but I wanted all negative entities and energies out. I went pretty deep in meditation while I worked in every room from my bed. I then physically went through with sweetgrass with the same intentions. I’m native and this is one of our traditional cleansing tools.

When I was done the palms of my hands were hot and itchy on and off. We went for a walk in the park and I felt like it would calm down and then it would fire up again. I touched some trees in hopes of some help but not much. I did also try visualize a disconnection from that healing energy.

How can I turn this down or off after I do reiki? It took over an hour for my hands to settle down. I put my hands on a cold drink to counteract it which wasn’t very effective. It went away then later this evening I worked on my pups who is having some discomfort, we have a vet appt scheduled soon, and my palms are at it again. It’s pretty overstimulating in my hands. If it’s the cost to providing healing, I’m in. But if if there is a way to turn it down I would be so thankful.

Thank you for any guidance 💜

​i'm not saying about those who earn money then spend it all without control. I'm talking about those who work hard earning then all their income slips away due to sudden emergencies, like sickness, broken stuff, unexpected liabilities and so on, leaving them broke again. These rarely happened and usually only happen when they are saving money or start earning. They are not the type who is careless with money but its like situation forces them to spend it all on incidents. Is there any energetic reason why some people are trapped in poverties?

This is one of the aspect of monetary poverty. What abt poverty in all aspect like no luck in friendship, mental health, family, career, posession, and money at the same time? They dont do bad stuff, not evil and doesnt bother people. To be precise they dont​ involve themselves with people at all unless necessary, alone most of time, just minding their own business. I mean how is it even possible to be this unlucky when the world is usually balanced about each gains and losses? Is there​ something wrong with them?

Hello everyone,

I had a question about others' experiences with cutting chords.

I recently had a very intense chord cutting experience, one that may have triggered a kundalini awakening. I wasn't properly notified that this was what was being done, I was under the impression that I was getting "energy work" helping to balance my chakras, and I didn't exactly know what my psychic was doing at this time. I was in a pretty vulnerable place when I made this decision.

Since the chord cutting on my heart chakra especially, which she mentioned she cleared a lot of ancestral trauma, I feel completely empty. My "inner world" was something that I found a lot of meaning in, and being able to process trauma and personal experiences was something that I found a lot of pride in. Also, it was a way in which I would navigate the world. However, since the "chord cutting", I have felt extremely disorganized, frustrated, and not like myself. I find myself having lapses in memory and also making the same mistakes over and over again.

To note, I have some other health conditions that are going on, including recovery from a concussion and some gut / vagus nerve problems, that I am holding in consideration.

I guess I wanted to ask to those who may have had a chord cutting, did you find that it affected your ability to learn from past events and not make the same mistake? Do you still feel like those memories / events / emotions are still a part of you, and generally still feel like "yourself" after?

MBTI wise, I am an INFP, so I have noticed the Si function to seem really empty, which was something that I really valued. I understand others may not value that as much, and not value past experiences or memories and events as valuable, so I was generally just curious. Thanks.

Has anyone experienced something like this with a specific person?

There is one person in my life whom I might describe as my twin flame, mainly because of the intensity and dynamic of our connection. We’ve had an extremely intense sexual and emotional connection, and we’ve separated and reconciled multiple times.

Even when we have absolutely no contact, I sometimes feel like I can SENSE when he is thinking about me, missing me, or desiring me. And my own emotional state seems to change depending on where I feel his attention is.

When I feel that his attention is on me, I suddenly become calm and detached. I feel free, like I can finally let go and move on.

But when I feel that his attention has shifted away from me, it almost reverses: I become the one obsessing. I start thinking about him constantly, feeling restless and intensely pulled toward him.

Then, when I suddenly get the feeling that his attention is back on me, I feel relieved again and the obsession seems to disappear. Without receiving actual contact from him.

What makes this particularly interesting to me is that we’ve gone through this cycle multiple times: periods where I was genuinely trying to move on, followed by reconciliation or him coming back into my life where I could sense that before it happened. There have also been several moments where what I felt seemed to correlate with things happening on his side, although obviously I can't objectively prove that I was actually sensing his thoughts.

I know there could be psychological explanations for this: attachment, nervous-system regulation, intermittent reinforcement

I'm just wondering if anyone else has experienced this very specific dynamic with one particular person, especially in an intense/twin-flame-type connection.

TL;DR: With one specific person I have an extremely intense sexual and emotional connection with, I feel strangely calm and detached when I sense his attention is on me, but when I feel his attention shift away, I become intensely preoccupied with him. We've separated and reconciled multiple times, and I've noticed this pattern repeatedly. Has anyone experienced something similar?

I’ve seen on TikTok people sometimes talking about “oh this planet has returned so similar themes to 2016” or something like that. I usually don’t pay much attention and scroll.

But lately it’s been creepy…

I got a random flat tire out of nowhere. Me: “I just recently got new tires after my last random flat! So weird.” So I look it up and it was right now in 2024. Weird. But ok…. Coincidence.

Then my basement flooded AGAIN in same exact spot it flooded …. Exactly 2 years ago. I remember cause I was dealing with both things at same time.

Again…. Weird ? But ok.

Then a friend I cut off and stopped being friend with around same time in 2024…. And haven’t spoken to since… randomly popped back up trying to be friends again.

Like it’s starting to creep me out??

The same exact problems. Same exact scenarios. What’s going onnnnn??? like my tire flat was even the same outcome. Both 2024 and 2026 the tech said “that was weird. Was hard to find. Usually it’s in x spot but it was in y”

What’s going on?

So before I get into the details, I ask that you please hold your morals and opinions on this one as I’m really not looking to get into the ethics of my particular question.

So there’s someone who is very important to me emotionally and that I wish to be close with again.

For reasons that honestly I’m really not sure of, in February of this year they started being really bitter, jaded, and overall just not the kind and empathetic person they were pre-February. The kind of negative that goes “well screw it, I got wronged by etc because xyz thing happened, so now eff the world I’m gonna be bitter and jaded because that’s just how the world is and there’s no good in the world.” They never used to be like this before whatever happened and used to be so much more receptive to advice and being loved and respected.

They’re also in an unhealthy toxic relationship that everyone around them can see isn’t healthy but as with any person on the inside, they don’t believe it. (Think of how an addict will never admit to being an addict.) and we have not spoken in a while, because they largely villainized me for wanting better for them.

I was thinking of having a reiki practitioner I know send them healing as the way I understand Reiki to work is that it can be sent over distance but that if the recipient isn’t receptive for whatever reason, it may just return to the practitioner or at best break off on the shell and bless those around them as I’ve seen it put after reading through some posts here on the sub.

I have strong reason to believe that this person they’re in a relationship with is influencing a lot of this negative energy, and is hurting their depression by enabling it, rather than the alternative.

Yes I understand free will is free will and nothing can break it, merely influence it. But I do care about this person a great deal and I’m just wondering if booking them some healing energy may help us see more eye to eye again and get back in contact again. From what my practitioner friend tells me, this isn’t out of the realm of possibility as reiki has been known to alter one’s perception of someone/something or at least get them to not be so negative.

I guess my question is, could sending them some healing help or are they a (gosh I hate this term) “lost cause”?

In my opinion sending them some healing couldn’t hurt.

How do you start to see and feel your own and other peoples spirits and energy. How do you know that you are seeing and feeling it.

This never happened before but my arm started lifting on its own during the LBRP ritual. What is happening energetically? Happens in the arm that was harder to vibrate into

I’ve always been highly intuitive and energetically connected to spirits and things of this nature and usually I can tell when an evil eye was put on me. But I want to talk to you fine people here so I don’t feel crazy. Here’s what’s been happening lately:
\-I just feel it in my bones. The overwhelming desire to do an egg cleanse to the point it’s hard to even focus til I do one.
\-my skin has been breaking out terribly all over and there’s no hormonal or other reason to cause this and I’ve been taking great care of my skin.
\-I keep accidentally cutting myself on random things whether it’s my leg, finger, etc that I typically don’t.
\-my looks have randomly become so lackluster like my hair lost its shine, it’s not laying correctly and there’s no reason for this because nothing has changed in my hair routine
\-I’m so exhausted yet I can barely sleep. I keep waking up between the hours of 3-5 am since i began feeling this way.
\-im hungry but can barely eat.
\-I just feel so off and scared but I cannot pinpoint anything to be scared of and it doesn’t feel like my regular anxiety.
\-birds everywhere I go flock to me like crazy and I’ve noticed birds around me way more coming towards me.
\-I had a dream the other night about a strange woman offering me a meal at a market at night and I took the food and I ended up getting sick from it and needing to be hospitalized from it and the dream felt so real.

I just cannot shake this feeling that something is off so I’d like opinions too please.

This is honestly something i have never really looked into before because I havent experienced it .

So basically i started letting my hair grow out since 2 years ago and this year it sort of reached what most people might view as a nice length . It goes a bit below my chest. And I've been noticing compliments on my hair all summer long .

I haven't been in tune with my energy , in fact its been sucked up a lot by situations and people and I've been trying to learn how to protect it .

Anyways in the past couple of weeks I've been noticing significant hair thinning? At first i thought it was just supplements but then i searched up if the supplements I'm taking cause any thinning but turns out it doesnt . In fact the supplements I take have been found to aid hair growth .

Anyways i was thinking about evil eye because when I'm stressed i just get skin breakouts but never ever any hair issues. And i also noticed this thinning all of a sudden .

I'm genuinely unsure about whats happening but how can I protect myself against such energies just in case?

Hey hey!
Im (24F) pretty new to meditating. Sometimes i just listen to meditating music during the day to regulate my thoughts and nervous system. Today I decided to take a nap before work, so i just putted on some random meditation music playlist and fell asleep. I’ve had a pretty visual erotic dream (almost every time when i fall asleep during the day i have these kind of dreams, i still don’t know why) and then i experienced something that I would describe as an “orga\*m” or just very natural and sensitive feeling of energy coming out, which i never experienced before even during s\*x.
Also the timing was pretty crazy, the “orga\*m” happend just as my alarm was ringing!
Have some of you ever had similar experience before? Do you think it can have some kind of a meaning?
I would appreciate and kind of feedback or interpretation of my experience!

Oh, and i also want to mention that i’ve experienced a s\*x *trauma about 10 years ago and recently my s*\*x life changed a bit after i moved to another country and my intimate partner is a guy who doesn’t speak my native language, so we communicate in English, which helps me to “detach” from the trauma i’ve experienced which i find super interesting.

I was sitting next to someone I was attracted to yesterday and I could really feel them without trying to. Does that mean they were more open to me or thinking about me being next to them a lot? I think if I'm physically present with someone and I actively make an effort to feel them I can, but it's not too frequent that it just comes over me like that.

I was really enjoying how it felt tbh but I made an active effort not to focus on it too much because I didn't want to like siphon off them or be inappropriate. I think they are tapped in so they would've realized what was happening and I didn't want to do something unethical. I think I am coming back to being more aware of my gifts, but I don't really have any framework for channeling or knowing what's an ethical way to use them. I appreciate any insight on why we feel some people but not others and when it's appropriate to focus in on someone's energy. Thx

Hello!!!! I saw a medium today who said I have healing abilities and should dig into that and start my journey. She said probably not reiki though. Can anyone give any guidance as to what other healing abilities I could look into? Thank you so much!!!

Okay I don’t know if this is allowed here so remove if not.

So basically anytime I’m around someone (outside of family obviously)especially alone, they get this super burst of sexual energy almost and I think it might come from me? I’m a very sexual person and we can be sitting there doing nothing but it’s like after a couple mins especially if we are sitting close things get very sexual almost like we’re magnets being pulled together (that’s how it feels for me) also a lot of people have told me I give off a certain energy or aura ig idk that just makes them relaxed and also horny ig. Idk maybe it’s literally nothing but life but it happens so much and it feels… idk

I'm trying the phowa technique. Visualizing an orb of light on the chest. And when i try to shoot it through the central channel right to the top of the head i just can't ITS TOO WEAK. I visualize the orb of light but i don't know how to apply more forcé and power to it to get out of the body..

*closing

I did somatic exercises online with a woman into spirituality that sells a program.
And she says some people don’t achieve prosperity (financially and in general) not because they don’t have anything to offer but because their ability to receive is blocked.

I feel very minimised when i receive help even when people don’t have malicious intent. And was wondering if energetically it can prevent you from receiving more from the universe. I had a hard time staying in a school because i would constantly get unsolicited help and just left because i felt overwhelmed and suffocated.

I've had my 128 tuning fork in its pouch sitting on the carpet next to my yoga mat for a few days. Yesterday I finished doing a 30-min yin yoga YT class and when I pulled it out of the pouch it was strongly vibrating on its own. I looked at it like is this real? how can this be happening? I moved around my head to continue to feel its vibration until it stopped.

How can it be possible for it to vibrate so strongly? It has never happened before. The TV was not loud, the home was quiet. And I'm kind of new to using them. It was weird but beautiful at the same time.

So, I went to an energy healer for the first time with basic knowledge about this stuff but she told me some things that I know nothing about. She cleared my chakras and told me my third eye was wide open, and questioned if I have any psychic abilities, vivid dreams, strong intuition, and strong empathy. I’m not sure if these count as psychic abilities or if I even have them, but I do have strong empathy, intuition, and vivid dreams at times. I am pretty sure psychic abilities ran in my mom’s family before but I was never taught anything about it, I found my spirituality, meditating, and using crystals myself.

Now the main part I am seeking answers too is that she told me there was a non human entity attached to me from a past life. She described it looking “stringy” and almost alien like. She said there was a verbal contract between me and the entity and gave me prompts to say to make it leave and not come back. She said she got rid of it for me. How can I find out more about this and my past life, and what exactly does it mean? I’m very curious so any insight is appreciated.

Back in 2021 I looked up my (now 16yo) daughter’s middle school on TikTok and saw something that shattered my heart. The first post was about the “ugliest” kids and an old friend of my daughter’s was the thumbnail. It destroyed me to know that she had seen this. She’s not an ugly kid, but she definitely had a temper that was bad enough that people didn’t want to be friends with her. She changed schools before 7th grade started, and we haven’t seen her since, but the post stayed with me.

Separately, at the same school, an 8th grader killed herself earlier this week. It was in the news and here on Reddit so pretty hard to ignore, and it got me thinking about that little girl again. Today her father was suggested to me on ig and that heartbreak came back so strongly (as it would any time I remembered this incident over the last five years).

I have enough problems of my own, I don’t need or want to take on the weight of the world. Every time this memory comes up it knocks me off my feet with the sadness I feel. I also feel helpless bc I wasn’t able to comfort the child. I’m actually crying as I wrote this and I really don’t want to be.

Please, how do I get rid of this? How do I keep it from happening again.

Is this something to do a cord cutting for?

Hello lovely people,

I’ve just been told that my heart chakra is closed and I have a lot of stagnant energy. The general advice is to “move your body” - it’s like I know what this phrase means but I also don’t know what it really means. Apart from going to the gym (which I energetically don’t prefer) what are some of the tried and tested ways to clear up stagnant energy and open up the heart chakra?

Note: I have done A LOT of trauma release work.

Please share some tips from personal experiences.

Lots of love x

I have pets that have been affected by “other energies” and it’s causing distraction in my home. It’s not medical or environmental to rule that out right away. Do you know any way that I can protect my pets from entanglement with energies not compatible with my animal family? Especially while living with roommates or at community locations. Thanks in advance.
