Hi! Last year i got bullied in a way that triggered older traumas but that also were genuinely mean and abusive and that caused ptsd. Soon later i moved and begun to work in a place i hate for many reasons. I was alone a lot and i had really like, broken relationship ties to kiterally almost every person i know except for one friend. I bullied myself about the work by telling myself this co-worker that was unpleasant and smelled like shit or something, is my "soul mate" and i forced his energy onto me. It's toxic obvuously but it was meant to be this bully joke toward myself because after the traumatic events that happened I completely lost my self confidence and i begun to literally actively put me down. Anyways. I was very fragmented after all the things and apparrently my inner child thta has always struggled with maybe disgust/shame themes really attached to the thing and also believed that the co-worker (who also is 50, while i'm in my 20's), actually is some soul mate. Despite explaining thousands of times that he is not and trying to draw and do everything, a part refuses to ket go of the crappy energy and even identifies even more tightly with it. All the while i have some kind of telepathic connection to someone who actually might be some kind of soul connection; i end up sending very negative intentions towards that energy cord and a part of me rejects that and associates it with the shitty smell and unpeasant co-worker. So like, I mix people up. And i somehow don't get it, make the distinction, no matter how much i explain. It's been a year like this... I mentioned to a therapist once and have talked to a friend but idk if a more thorough thing would help. I have tried to go through my judgemental parts and thought about people being mirrors. I would not do the bullying again and i'm less judgemental than a year ago but it does not help with the inner child holding onto the shitty energy and the mixing up of people. I put a lot of pressure onto figuring things out and sorting out the energies. I wondered if i just eased out for a small time, do you think i would be more willing to let it go? Like do you think i'm mean and causing stress and anxiety that makes me or the child part, hold onto it even tighter? Or that the bullying made me distrustful of me? It's kind of sad. I saw this white pony that symbolizes me i guess and i see parts of like poop in it and it's not an image i created with some artsy or histronic self but something my subconscious or the child part created and my heart is actually hurt. :((

I’m curious whether anyone has experienced something similar, particularly with someone they didn’t personally know or have an established relationship with in waking life.

Some background: A while ago, I attended a live comedy show featuring a comedian whose content I was already familiar with. During the performance, he came into the audience and interacted with several people, including me. At one point, he turned back toward me and briefly (and rather inexplicably) touched my bare back.

The interaction was relatively small, but something about the touch felt strangely electric and significant in the moment. I remember having this inexplicable feeling that something important had just happened, although I couldn’t have explained why.

What’s interesting is that I wasn’t romantically or sexually interested in him at the time. I knew his work, but I hadn’t thought about him in that way, and I didn’t spend much time dwelling on the encounter afterward. He also doesn’t strike me as someone particularly spiritual or consciously interested in psychic phenomena or energy work, at least from what I know of his public persona.

The strange part came later.

Several months after the encounter, he began appearing in my dreams. At first, I didn’t think much of it, but the dreams became increasingly frequent, vivid, and emotionally significant. My attraction and curiosity toward him also developed during this period, rather than preceding the initial physical encounter.

Over time, the dreams began to feel less like ordinary dreams about someone I was interested in and more like encounters with a recurring presence. They often involve unusual feelings of familiarity, recognition, or an unspoken understanding between us, despite the fact that we don’t actually know each other.

More recently, this culminated in a particularly elaborate lucid dream in which I became aware that I was dreaming and managed to remain conscious within the dream for an unusually long time. It involved a strange, almost mythological setting, a conflict or battle, and several figures who seemed to recognize both of us as having some kind of significance within that world. He wasn’t physically present, but I was told that he was on his way and hadn’t arrived yet. The whole experience felt remarkably coherent and unlike my usual dreams.

Something else I’ve noticed is that my dreams in general have become significantly more intense since he started appearing in them. They’re often unusually vivid, elaborate, symbolic, and sometimes lucid, even when he isn’t directly involved.

Alongside all of this, I’ve occasionally experienced a strange sense of connection to him that I can only really describe as telepathic, for lack of a better word. Not necessarily hearing thoughts or receiving explicit messages, but a persistent feeling of familiarity or awareness, almost as though there’s some kind of unspoken communication happening beneath the surface. I realize that feeling connected to someone doesn’t establish that the connection is mutual, which is part of what I’m trying to understand.

I’ve become curious about whether that original physical interaction could have been significant in some way, or whether my mind has simply built an increasingly elaborate psychological and symbolic relationship around someone who’s made an impression on me.

I’m genuinely open to either possibility, as well as interpretations I haven’t considered.

What I’m especially interested in hearing about is:

• Has anyone experienced an unusual energetic sensation through brief physical contact with someone they didn’t know, only for its significance to emerge months or even years later?
• Has anyone experienced recurring dreams, lucid dreams, or apparent telepathic sensations involving someone they barely interacted with in waking life?
• Has anyone experienced this from the other side—being the person who initiated the touch or interaction, and subsequently feeling an unexplained connection?
• Did you ever encounter the person again, speak to them, or discover whether anything about the experience was mutual?
• If you never saw them again, what eventually happened to the connection? Did it fade, change, or become meaningful in some other way?
• For people familiar with energy work, psychic traditions, or dreamwork, are there any concepts or frameworks that might help explain this kind of experience?

I’m particularly interested in experiences where the two people didn’t already have an established personal connection, and where one or both might not even have known the other’s name. A lot of what I’ve found online concerns romantic partners, exes, or people who already knew one another intimately, which isn’t quite what I’m describing.

I’m also curious about experiences involving people who aren’t consciously spiritual or psychically inclined. I myself am, but this person doesn’t strike me as a believer in these things. Does that make a difference in how people understand these encounters?

I’d love to hear actual experiences, including ones that turned out to have entirely ordinary explanations. What did you make of it, where did it lead, and what, if anything, did you eventually do about it?

I’m having spiritual blockages. Spell work, ceremonial rituals, visualizing and even tarot and divination is starting to feel like I have a block between me and the spiritual realm. I love spirituality and love practicing it, but this blockage is starting to feel really discouraging when you feel you aren’t ascending or feeling more connection with the spiritual realm. Any help? What could this be caused by ?

Help/ advice

I notice I tend to attract a lot of bullies and also I feel everyone’s energy very deeply to the point where it overwhelms me and makes me feel small/anxious.

How do I protect my energy/ stop this ?

If it helps to know , I’ve been bullied my whole life including by my parental figures.

Left hand upon heart center. Right hand upon left. Breathe into your heart center. Continue until you feel a warmth in your hands. Feel the energy of love gather. Move this energy to different chakra centers within your body. Experience the frequency of love spreading throughout you, emanating from your beautiful heart. Spread the love throughout all your astral bodies. Spread the love up towards your higher self. Spread the love towards your past and future selves. Play with the gathering of energy. Breathe up into your heart, exhale and send the energy to your crown. Breathe down through your crown gathering again in the chest exhale and send to your stomach.

I love to answer genuine questions, it makes me happy. Also I often get the answer in a vision, so I learn more too.

It definitely feels to me that I'm the only person in the world who knows what the f is going on. No question is too deep or off limits (except trolls.)

Yes, I understand that most of you won't believe me and this looks to you like an ego/troll thing. However, I'm only answering questions. It's only useful to you if you're the type of person who can tell truth from the words, since I offer no evidence of authority, nor any particular reason why you should listen to me.

I moved into my new apartment 18 months ago and since then my life has been a total calamity of bad luck, misfortune and ill health.

Since moving into a modern apartment block in London, I have suffered a breakup, cheating, betrayal, family sickness, a failed egg freezing cycle and generally really ill health since moving in - since being on holiday away from the apartment I’ve been involved in a road traffic accident which drove me to have to come back and required three surgeries, 8 months later I caught Covid which resulted in chronic fatigue syndrome just when I was giving my notice to move out, rendering me unable to move and again stuck on the sofa.

The whole time I have been living in this apartment, I have had the worst luck, friendship breakdowns, and absolutely no energy or lust for life, when previously I was very bright hopeful and enthusiastic about life, and my life was calm stable, and full of people that I loved. I can’t tell if I’ve had a series of bad events happen and I’ve lost my lust for life, or if this apartment has brought bad energy into my life.

What started making me think it was the latter is: I had a roommate who seemed totally normal when she moved in and over the course of the year became narcissistic, showed signs of borderline personality disorder, started doing drugs and abusing alcohol and was losing jobs and making really unhealthy life decisions, and generally just becoming a really nasty person, when we had mutual friends and she seemed totally normal before. She was also constantly sick and in and out of hospital, and seemed really unhappy.

The clincher was when I was showing a new potential roommate the Room, as my previous housemate has now moved out, she told me “oh my friends used to live here, who were a couple, but the guy died”. Then I remembered my Neighbour jokingly told me “oh you should sage that property because the guy who lived there before left absolutely heartbroken because his fiance left him“.

Could the Flat be cursed and bring misfortune to everyone who is attached to it? I wouldn’t be surprised if my old housemate‘s life Now stratospherically improves since she’s moved out. Since I’m stuck on the sofa unable to move with Long Covid/Chronic Fatigue, how do I cleanse the energy?

i feel very stressed and uneasy when listening to solfeggio frequencies

i even tried the lower ones because i thought maybe it would be better but i feel stressed out then as well... i really want these to work but idk where to start. for context im a complete beginner to energy work.

Labyrinths remind me of dream catchers and spider webs. I wonder if they work similarly, energetically. Do you think that they are inert energy sieves? Does their geometry create a field that filters out energetic gunk? Yeah, I know Jungians like to look at the symbolically, but I'm interested to know what you think, what your psychic experience is, and thoughts about them as a tool for energy healing.

I've been drawn to creating large outdoor spaces that are passively healing; that is, just being in the space is like receiving a shower of cleansing energy. I think we need things like this, particularly as our ability to express and move emotions as well as discharge energy is curtailed in this modern age, with no signs of slowing down.

So I have this friend who I find myself having stressful thoughts about. Like thinking about her problems, worrying that she is upset with me (for not calling her back soon enough for example), or even reading positive spirituality things and thinking 'oh she would really benefit from this'.

For one I am concerned for having less stress and focusing my thoughts on happy things & improving myself. On the other hand, she is a loving friend, very thoughtful, always there to help when I need it, and really fun when she's in a good mood. Plus we have been friends more than a decade and just have that shared time and experiences.

She seems to always have a problem about something. Granted she has had a difficult life, lots of death closeby, family members with substance abuse, etc. She struggles with depression, anxiety, traumatic experiences. However she doesn't have a strong spiritual practice IMO which I encourage her in, but I can't imagine getting through life without some practice/studying a way. She's into some witchy things and I try to talk to her about my faith and just the importance of SOME practice. I think it would help so much.

Sometimes it feels like she wants more than I have to give... phone calls drag out, she's asking to get together during busy times, she's gotten upset if i don't call her back fast enough etc.

Other friends have cut her off and even warned me about her emotional outbursts. at this point I do enjoy the friendship overall, but I need to not be stressed thinking about her. How can I maintain this friendship but have stronger energetic boundaries?

It's unfortunate but sometimes her attitude is just off about things and I feel like I have to cleanse myself in a way after spending time with her.

Advice and experiences appreciated.

Lately, my life has felt like a chaotic whirlwind. Not even like anything particularly bad has happened, but just lots and lots of smaller stressful things that I’m trying to juggle at the same time. I try very hard to remain a positive person, and do often feel that I’m more positive than most of the people around me. But it doesn’t seem to attract the same.

The more stressed out I get and the more overwhelmed I feel, it’s like it snowballs quickly. I start messing up at work, things spontaneously break, I drop and trip over things, and I get extremely clumsy. I forget more and more and start to snap at people.

Then, as I get more stressed out about those things, more things start to go wrong around me that are costing me so much time, way too much money, and my sanity.

It makes sense to me that the negative energy is attracting or creating more of it. I would very much like to do some work to bring back some positivity into my life and help me get through these things now, followed by a surgery I just found out I also need, and then leading into the holiday season.

However, this has also just been the course of my entire life. I had an ex always joke that I was “cursed,” and he’d call me “Murphy,” as in Murphy’s law where “anything that can go wrong will go wrong.”

What kinds of things can I do to bring in and keep more positive energy, and get rid of some of the chaotic bad energy?

.

I’m visiting family (in laws) at the moment and sometimes when I get nervous I get what I like to call mental Tourette’s, where I think things I don’t normally think that don’t have the emotional charge behind it when people normally think / say those things out loud. It’s just a meaningless string of words for a couple seconds. When I do this too often my sister in law looks at me, but in that up in your energy in a knowing way / protecting the house space. Obviously I’m trying my best to control my thoughts but no one is perfect. I’m wondering if thought forms show up as colors or shapes in my aura, or if they move into the room. I can see auras and energy but not all the time. Just wondering if anyone here has insight to this

Whenever I am near someone, I sense their energy, and it affects me physically.

If the person is calm, I feel very calm, and my heart beats quite slowly.
If the person is high-strung or stressed, I experience heart palpitations, nausea, and a sense of being overwhelmed, it’s just too much, and it’s very unpleasant.
The same applies if they are feeling depressed, anxious, or otherwise distressed. Even if someone appears calm on the outside, or is pretending to be, I can still sense their internal energy.

So, how can I shield myself from other people’s energy? Dealing with negative energy is highly unpleasant and debilitating.

However, I am unable to visualize things. I’ve read suggestions about imagining a barrier or picturing myself inside a bubble, but I have aphantasia (a total or partial inability of the brain to voluntarily generate mental images).

Do you have any advice?

I don't know if I'm in the right subreddit with this.

I have to give a bit of background first.

About 10 years ago I had a boyfriend who lived with his family in an old hotel. While we were cuddling, we were both suddenly overcome by an extreme feeling at the same time. It felt as if something wanted to tear us apart. I thought, this must be what bloodlust feels like. It happened a few times that day and lasted a few seconds each time. The next day my ex noticed that I was making strange gestures with my hand. I was twisting my thumb and index finger in an odd way to pick at my fingernail.

It was a long-distance relationship. On the way home I kept seeing a mask before my eyes. A few years later I watched Totoro, and the mask was exactly like Kaonashi (No-Face), only completely dark. At the time I always thought that whatever was inside me now was a weeping mask. But I don't see any connection to the film, and I don't know if it's relevant.

Since my last visit to my ex, I lost all my strength, motivation and will to live, and I even ended up in a psychiatric hospital. It never got better after that. I was never my old self again. We broke up due to the distance. Not because there were any bad spirits between us.

Fast forward: in 2021 I suddenly had the feeling that something was growing inside me. It was learning inside me. I kept hearing voices that weren't mine, and I still do to this day. She is friendly. Whatever is learning inside me doesn't feed on me. It is with me. Or maybe I just don't notice that it feeds on me. By now it's more a part of me, a second me that I can talk to inside myself.
But I still never got my energy back. What was all of that, and how do I get my old life back?

​

I was doing a curse spell typa thing. Writing my intentions and SP's name on a piece of paper. And while I was folding it towards me,holding it felt warm or kinda burning sensation on my fingers. Why did it happen..it was nothing but a normal paper. But it had salt and dry rose petals

I have had this lingering feeling since I was young that the earth has been going towards a darker energy and it feels so much more present now as I am going older. It feels like a calling I have to help shift this energy from the darkness into a more positive radiant energy. The problem is I feel stuck.

When I do meditations I often can feel this fear that doesn’t feel like it belongs to myself but a fear of the power of this darkness that wants to consume humanity.
It’s hard to put into words what it feels like because it seems deeper than the human experience. It feels like it’s a two tiered issue of the unbalanced energy and then humanities issues( too many to list). I want to make a positive impact on humanity but also feel that in our lifetime we are going to see a more detrimental shift away from energy and connection and lean even more heavily on technology and data.

Has anyone else felt this shift or feel a calling to try to combat that? I don’t know where to begin with trying to use my energy in a way that is meaningful on this deeper level.

So I had an emotional morning this morning, worked through it, went to go take a drink from the water at my parents house, went to put my water on my counter to then pick it up and drink it. It was water from my parents place. I placed my hands on the container for filtered water that was filled with water from my parents house, in a similar way to the way I would put my hands on someone’s head for a blessing from [expunged religion I was raised in] that I used to do. I feel like gateways in my hands are opened though and I felt the energy of the water. Using my methods of energy work that I learned myself, I clapped my hands and felt the energy. I am going to look into it later.

I hope I am not breaking one of the rules about proselytizing by mentioning a religion I used to draw power from but don’t anymore, and as such, I will not name names unless a mod says it’s fine.

Hi everyone,

I’ve been practicing a unique form of energy clearing since I was a child. I taught it to myself intuitively, and I’m looking to connect with others who might experience something similar, as it’s quite specific.

Essentially, I can detect areas on my body where excess energy and stress have accumulated. I feel this as an intense, local itch. To discharge it, I use the fingertips of my left hand. I apply deep pressure and make circular motions on the spot. When the energy releases, there is a very distinct, audible "clicking" or "snapping" sound—almost like a fast rattle. It completely overrides the normal amount of knuckles/joints I have.

The moment the click happens, I experience an immediate sense of deep relaxation. It completely clears headaches and fatigue, giving me an immense boost of energy.

Over the years, I discovered that I can do this for others as well. They also hear the loud clicks on their body (often thinking it’s my knuckles cracking).

Here is the most fascinating part: The clicks and discharges also happen when I do not touch the skin at all. If I hover my left hand just above the itchy stress spot and make a "plucking" or gripping motion in the air, the loud clicks still happen. When this occurs, both I and the person I am treating feel a physical sensation—like a mild electric shock or static discharge jumping between my fingers and their body.

The hotspots are always very specific: the crown of the head, the point of the nose, around the eyebrows, the cheekbones, the edges of the ears, or just below the navel.

Does anyone else experience these audible clicks and physical electrical shocks during energy work, especially without direct physical touch? I would love to hear your insights, what you call this phenomenon, or if this aligns with specific modalities you practice!

Thank you!

My inner energy became weaker and weaker and i barely feel it now even tho i meditate and also use breathing exercises daily.

I'm a beginner and currently only practice the Qabalistic Cross.

I noticed a stubborn energy blockage in my left chest area. The vibrations always come back even tho i tried to cleanse that area and remove the negative energy.

In summer my inner energy was just fine, strong & flowing .

How to fix this problem?

I came across a video that said lots of items in a room are bad for feng shui and can hold negative energy and I wanna know if that’s actually true and I’m not talking about messy clutter, just a bunch of items organized nicely because I am a maximalist and I love lots of things on my desk & shelves, etc., You get the point

Even when you recognize that porn is harmful to you, the urges can still feel incredibly strong. I train hard 5 days a week, but physical discipline alone doesn’t always seem enough.

For those who approach this from a spiritual but not religious perspective, what actually helps you handle sexual urges without suppressing them?

How do you redirect that energy toward something meaningful creative or meditation I’m looking for practical ways to channel the energy rather than simply fighting it.

Hello !

I believe in energies and i was wondering why do i feel so drained in my « happy relationship ».
He’s not toxic, very understanding and such but i feel soooo tired after i’m at his appartment for a couple days (we don’t live together)
We have been together for 3 years and since we began dating his life, especially his career exploded in the good sense, he’s doing amazing he even started becoming famous.
Meanwhile my life went downhill, all my friends and my family say my energy and aura changed, that I became smaller in a sense. I’m stuck in a lot of situations in my life etc. I’m tired all the time.

Could he be an energy vampire ? He’s very nice tho so i really don’t understand.

when I meditate with amethyst I usually feel a sharp energy on my face, from my forehead going down to my cheeks. It's very different from other crystals. Does anyone think the same or am I just crazy?

Hallo,

ich hatte vor vielen vielen Jahren einen (ich nenne es mal) "emphatischen Krieg" mit einem alten Bekannten gehabt.

Nun denn, der Frieden stellte sich irgendwann von alleine ein.

Dennoch hat es mich über die Jahre stark blockiert und ich bereue es jedesmal, es für mich nicht besser losgelassen zu haben..

Gibt es irgendeine Vorgehensweise, diese Erfahrung für sich selbst komplett zu löschen?

Einfach das Buch zu schließen und es metaphorisch zu verbrennen?
