Subtle Energy: A Handbook of Psychic Energy Manipulation

Psychic ability development is skill development Everyone is psychic, with varying degrees of sensitivity. Through practice, you can learn to recognize your own psychic ability. Our subtle energy body is the method by which we both sense and interact with the energy of others and the world around us. By developing a practice of meditation and following a reasonable progression, you can learn: * Psychometry (the psychic reading of information imprinted onto objects) * Imprinting energy (creating intentional impressions on energy fields)* Clairvoyance (the psychic perception of spirits and remote locations)* Telepathy and Empathy (the psychic transference of information)* Astral Projection (the projection of consciousness through the astral plane)and more Now revised and updated, Subtle Energy describes the underlying philosophy and theory behind this approach to psychic ability. It then applies this theoretical model in a way that teaches you how to perform these abilities without depending on cookie-cutter techniques or rigid visualizations. By having a firm model for understanding how psychic energy works, you can develop a much stronger, holistic practice that is apparent in your day to day life.Informational chapters describe the recent history of subtle energy work since the 1900s that has brought us to where we are today. You will learn about the nature of the energy body, chakras, and the aura that we all possess. Additional chapters provide information on how to use psychic ability to interface with other magical or occult systems, including elemental magic, personal alchemy, and ritual magic. A Hermetic philosophical framework allows for easy integration with other Western magical systems. A discussion of elements, both Eastern and Western, provides a framework for integrating even into some Eastern forms of magic.This book is aimed for the beginner or intermediate practitioner of subtle energy and psychic ability. It looks to provide a solid foundation for continued study into more advanced topics through specific psychic approaches, without relying on overly simplified visualization techniques. But even experienced practitioners or teachers may gain new perspectives and insights into how the subtle body functions and how this functioning results in many experiences common to beginning energy workers.
