Here's the secret: You can get rid of rituals altogether, and just cast spells with energy work. Though generally your rituals would be more successful. It still helps save energy.
But yes, it is easy to implement energy work into a ritual and in some fields(evocation) it is necessary. In fact, getting to know the energy of a ritual is more important than anything else in the ritual.
Except, of course, elements like forgetting about it, the will and intent, and eliminating doubt.
So it sounds like everyone has their own personal opinions as to whether or not chakra/energy can be manipulated and transmutated into something much more. Maybe I should explore the potential and the limits as a whole and chronicle it. Because it sounds like a piece of magic that is not well studied. I know reiki does something of this nature but not to the extent that I want to master. Yes I know it sounds far fetched but I think it could be done because the essence of energy and controlling it is essentially controlling the atoms and controlling the actions that they make. So in theory you should be able to change that so far and create something material.
everyone does have their own opinion of energy manipulation, for me, energy manipulation relates to how you control and or direct energy ad it's effects on various things including the spells it may influenced
Yes, I agree that energy manipulation as a whole can be used to enhance the users magickal abilities but I believe that there is a side to that energy as well that could potentially be tapped into in order to do things that even those in the magick world have yet to try and master because they tend to stay with what is known and just expand on the familiar and not necessarily dwelve into the unknown
Well when you are using energy to power a spell essentially you are telling the energy what to do which is power the spell and thus giving the energy power and form not maybe exactly by that definition but in a sense. What my theory is that of stem cells in the human body. Essentially a base code that can be essentially coded to do anything. All energy is essentially atoms with no specific "code" up until you give it the desired "code" via the spell you are wanting to cast. So that is the basis but instead of the using a spell or maybe you need a spell not sure on that...but what if you could essentially control the state that the atoms are in a tell them through the energy that you give off that you want it to produce friction therefore creating heating thereby producing a flame. Similar thing to water you tell the atoms to combine and make hydrogen and oxygen and then combine those two thus creating water. Its all a matter of controlling and shaping the energy which in turn shapes the atoms and tells them what you want to do thus shaping something out what appears to be nothing but that nothing is really just things taking shape at a subatomic level.
I think I can see what you are saying, but there are several problems, first off, energy isn't made out of atoms, atoms use energy to transfer to a certain state. and for energy to convert into actual matter would probably require a loss of an massive amount of energy. for gas to become a liquid and liquid to become solid, a loss of energy is needed, the opposite is true for the reverse.
