Hey,
as the subject suggests, Im very new to this. Im so new in fact, I dont know where to begin. I have heard that for spell casting to work you need to practice energy, and focus that energy towards the spell you are working on, what does that mean? How do I know what different energies feels like?
Can someone point me to the right direction, I would be very thankful.
Try to learn to mediate and "find your element" (not literal element). Find what makes you tick. For me, it's healing, and love magick. For you -- it could be healing -- or even hexes! (I don't know you.) Experiment!
I'd suggest finding a good beginners guide to follow like Psychic Witch by Mat Auryn [it's a big one right now] I also enjoyed Rebel Witch by Kelly-Ann Maddox, but that's more for shaping your path and not beginner information [though it does have that in there]
If books are an issue, HearthWitch has her own YouTube channel with a beginner's playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLWIrdU1Xu5AWQgOIpEuO6E4b7RiEnj-Fk
As for your energy question, "energy" is another word for "magick" [there are a number of ways to spell magick, but the most common is m-a-g-i-c-k to differentiate real magick from fake magic] Magick is a neutral energy found in nature. On the physical plane, it's ruled by nature, and therefore doesn't contradict nature. Magick brings natural changes. When you cast spells, you charge this neutral energy into your person and direct it on a desired path while casting spells. As we cast, we give it a positive or negative charge. In order for a spell to work, you need energy behind it.
What it'll feel like, it's different for everyone, but the most common is warm, tingly, and when you make psi balls [balls of energy, not visible] you should feel a slight push like two positively charged magnets forcing themselves away from each other. As for positive and negative energy, you typically charge that energy, so you'll feel happy for positive, and mad for negative. If somehow you have a buildup of negative energy, you would feel a heaviness like a soaking blanket on your shoulders, slightly paranoid, nervous, and as if you have a cold coming on, but you never get sick. Daily shielding can protect you from most negative energy you'll encounter and warding/protecting your home should stop any negative spells cast in your direction [this is rare but does happen. I know a lot of witches on TikTok and other social media deal with a lot more because people are jealous and think "I'll show them" and try to curse them. But I assure you 99% of the time, what you fear is a curse is either the normal flow of life or a build-up of negative energy you can fix with a quick cleanse. I've been a witch for over 20 years, and I've dealt with 2 curses. Both of which were quickly solved]
Thank you for these answers. Then I have definitely felt Magic. I wanted to try make a Psi ball, and as soon I put my hand towards eachother, I imagined energy forming. I imagined hand A was Ac and hand B was Dc it took me around 10-15 seconds and the feelings I felt was exactly what you describing it feels like, and now I dont have to imagine energy forming, soon I put my hands up, making a Psi ball I feel directly energy forming, warm, ticklish and electric energy.
Basically, yes. Magick is neutral, it's our intention that gives it a positive or negative charge. You want to use it in a love spell? Think about how love makes you feel. You want to curse someone? Think about how angry they make you feel.
Ok, so I just think about, etc love, how much I love this person and focus this energy into this psi ball, and then release it? Or should I just keep it?
Once I get a hang with how Energy Magic works, I was thinking about Aura manipulation, I will only use white magic, or what I consider white magic is, I hate to see my friends and family sad or stressed. For what I understand I can manipulate feelings with Aura magic? But I need to practice this more. I have seen aura colors few times, but I feel like I really need to concentrate. I tried this on my self. Once I saw white and second time I saw pink.
Again, Im sorry if I asked many questions. I wish I could return the favour teach you something.
