HOW IT WORKS... BARE-BONE BASICS

I suppose it would be a good idea to explain the root of the paranormal collecting & how the energy involved on both the human side & the paranormal side interact.

This is a very nuts & bolts explanation of how energy interacts.

#1 Everything is made of energy

Image

You, me, the pencil on your desk, your neighbor's dog, your mailbox, everything that exists has energy. Of course depending on what the object is depends on how much energy it has as a constant (meaning at any given time), and depending on the object it depends on how much energy it can expend. A human can exert far more energy than the pencil on your desk. Humans & other living beings that possess faculties of emotions, mindsets, etc can give & receive massive amounts of energy depending on the situation. In a simple, sitting position you are giving off energy to everything around you. More traumatic situations like childbirth, heated arguments, physical altercations, tragic circumstances of any kind, etc means the people or beings involved are going to give out massive amounts of energy while in that circumstance.

#2 Everything exchanges energy

Image

When you come into contact with any object or person you are exchanging energy; however slight or massive it might be. While most energy exchanges are hardly noticeable and don't leave any part of you effected there are circumstances, like paranormal objects, when the give & take of energy is quite noticeable. When you come into contact with another person, a paranormal object, or even a spell or magic you are exchanging energies. Your energy goes out to that object/person and their energy comes to you. This is why you have to acclimate yourself, sometimes, to new paranormal energies brought into the home (spirits, Immortals, enchanted vessels, spells). You are not used to their energy and your energy has to have time to process & adjust.

#3 Shielding, armor, barriers do protect you from unwanted energies

Image

If you are someone who suspects that you may be prone to negative energy or that you may be the target of malicious spirits, malicious magic, or malicious actions (like psychic attacks, etc), you can protect yourself by constructing barriers, shields, or armor around you. No, this is not something everyone has to do. People who are merely collectors and do not engage in the arts beyond simple paranormal collecting will likely not need to do this.

However, if you are someone who wants to take precautions, is a practitioner, does practice the arts, or has any reason to suspect that you need protection then you can do so by using enchanted objects, or by spellcasting yourself with different protective options. Buying or casting different protective measures will ensure that only what you choose and what you allow is able to get through to you & affect your energy. It will act as a filter to allow what you desire & block what is harmful.

Empaths are very susceptible to all kinds of energy, both positive and negative. Even working to develop
psychic abilities, one of the first pathways to open is often one of empathy. My point: Learning to sheild and having spelled items for protection
is a valuable tool to have. Better to have it before you need it, or as the old saying goes, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

This is just my humble options.

Namaste,
Alex

When shielding is is as simple as imagining a shield or is there some complex breathing, running energy, etc.

I am just at this stage on my path right now! I am very empathic, but I am struggling with the outdoors as well as other people :(

I see, hear and feel things all the time(including messages etc) and I only feel comfortable in my home. Any further advice would be most appreciated :help:

I will be ordering shortly......
