Energy, Psi, prana, mana, chi, divine power, the tao, reiki or "vibes" - every system of magic and mysticism calls the energies that power its practices by different names. Whether examining the power of prayer or a healing session with a Reiki master, an underlying question exists: Is this energy all the same or does it exist as distinctly different "wavelengths" of some universal power? When New Agers, occultists, spiritual healers, metaphysicians, artists and Neopagans talk about the "energies" they use, what do they actually mean? Now, for the first time, a single book discusses the vocabulary, magic, metaphysics, art and science of energy from a multi-model, 21st century perspective. Lessons in "Real Energy" will cover: the physical vocabulary of energy, the metaphysical vocabulary of energy, how the laws of magic affect energy, the importance of focus. "Real Energy" then takes these lessons to the next level by giving you direction on how to understand and begin working with different energies.
Half of the book is dedicated to showing you how to work with specific energies, including: the four elements, crystals, plants, animals, your own body, nature spirits, ancestors and deities to accomplish your goals and enhance life experiences. Specific energy work practices are, also, covered, including: Reiki, The Huna System, working with "Pure" ESP and PK, Feng Shui and the Tantra System.
