Energy Manipulation For Beginners.

This post was made for an anon I received a few days ago regarding energy manipulation and working without a deity. These exercises are the ones I used when I was doing my year and a day. They were taken out of the Temple of inner witchcraft. A book I highly recommend for beginner witches. 

Excercise 1 - Feeling energy

1. Hold your hands three feet apart, Palms facing each other. Close your eyes if you would like. You are aware of any new information you receive from your hands, but you are not judging the experience or trying to create it. Allow it to happen naturally. 

2. Bring your hands closer together, slowly. Be aware of the sensation. Notice any feelings that come in waves or layers. These are the levels of your aura, your energy body. Some layers offer more “resistance” than others. Try it several times, with eyes closed and then open. If you have any difficulty, start over, but begin by rubbing your hands together vigorously, as if you were trying to warm them up. this will increase your hand’s sensitivity. 

Practice until feeling the energy becomes almost second nature.

I will post the second excerpt next week!

I made this with old music box gears <3

Vegan Mushroom, “Beef”, and Onion Hand Pies

1 tbsp olive oil

1 large sweet onion, diced

1 pint mushrooms, minced

6 garlic cloves, minced

1 ½ tsp salt

1 tsp pepper

3 tsp paprika

1 tsp cumin

1/3 tsp sage

1 tsp rosemary

1 13.7 oz bag Gardein beefless crumbles

For the pie crust

2 ½ cups flour

1/3 cup cold water

½ cup room temperature coconut oil

2 tbsp sugar

2 tbsp salt

Whisk together flour, sugar, and salt. Add the room temperature coconut oil. Work the coconut oil into the flour with a pastry cutter or your fingers until it forms a gravelly crumby meal. Slowly add the cold water, use just enough to bind the mealy bits into a dough, be careful not to let it become too wet and sticky. Knead the dough a few times then put it in the fridge while you work on the filling.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions and cook for around 5 minutes. Add mushrooms and garlic and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring often. I like to add a splash of soy sauce when I add the mushrooms but this is optional.

Grind the spices in a mortar and pestle (or use ground spices) then add to the mushrooms and onions. Stir and cook another two minutes.

Add the meatless crumbles and another tbsp olive oil and mix until the crumbles are heated through. Turn off the heat and let the mixture cool slightly while you roll out your dough.

Lightly flour your work surface and roll out your dough to about ¼-1/8 inch thickness.

Use a 4 inch circle cookie cutter (if we’re being honest here I just traced a large mug with a knife) to cut the dough into discs.

Using your hands, pack about a tbsp or so of filling into the middle of the dough disc, fold it over to close and use a fork to crimp the edges sealed. Decorate with little leaves if you’d like.

Arrange on a greased baking sheet 1 inch apart. Melt a little coconut oil and brush over a very thin layer, sprinkle all of the hand pies with a pinch of salt.

Bake at 375F/190C for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.

Enjoy!

PS– If you have leftover filling pop it in a container and freeze it for next time! If you can keep your partner and their fork out of it. I end up with a ton leftover every time 😂
