question:

question about this site. I'm really just trying to learn. I have a strong feeling about it and have been told by many "gifted" people that I've come into contact with that I am an empath? I do have a strong energy around me and out of my 5 daughters, one of them has the same intuitions that I have always had. My niece hears voices of "shadow people" and has had social problems as she feels everyone's emotions that are around her.This has been going on through each generation. Seems to grow stronger with each one. I don't know what we are but there must be a reason we have these energies, isn't there? I seem to attract spirits as well. I've never lived anywhere without there being "activity" going on. Never bad. I just learned to live with it. I guess my question would be, does this make us anything other than weird? We all hide what we go through from people around us as we will be judged for it. Any thoughts on this or anyone else exploring possible answers? what makes a person decide to be a magical? were you born with a gift and then focused on it?

Hello there!
My experiences came first; spirit seeing and sensing, future telling/knowing, seeing energy, uncomfortable around some people, etc. Then came my research to know about them, and to try to gain more control. During this search, which I'm never done with, I found this site. It has explained many things, why I can see and feel what others could not. You are not crazy! You are one who is more "awake" or "aware" than others.
Welcome to the wonderful world of magick! There is much to learn. Meditation will help you train yourself to be calm and focus. I have a meditation exercise on my profile, just click on my name. Looking at the basics of magick might even delight you. They can be found in forums under the General Info section. Basics Expanded and Starting Out will be helpful. It will also give you a start on what magick is and how it works.
