Spam Wars Episode VI: Return of the Spammage

[Elena Stark]

Lol but at least it sounds like a cooler job ^_^

[Kyrie Blaze]

Nngh... @___@

/shudder

Ugh. Gotta hate the feeling of getting a paper cut. Even worse when it's a cardboard-like material and on the flap of skin between thumb and index finger.

I forgot how much that place bleeds, too. o___o;;

[Date Masamune™]

Ughhh that's like the worst placeee.

[Kyrie Blaze]

Yuuuuup.

On the bright side...hot lunch date. Awwww yeah~

[Katsuri Katashi]

[Orion]

Paper cuts.... hurt so damn bad... especially when you forget and eat something with salt on it. Then it just buuurns....

Bright side, you had a good date. Kudos Kyrie! *thumbs up*

Also... been reading Beelzebub. Who wants to fight the characters from there?

[Date Masamune™]

Shugo could give Oga a beat down.

I'm glad it was a good one. xD I'd hate to be poor company for myself if I took me out on a hot date.

Edit:: also uggghhhh. I feel like I got bowled over by something heavy. That reiki treatment I did for my brother's GF's father took a lot out of meeee.

[Orion]

*facepalm*

And this, Tanya, is why you are careful when using reiki on others, because the energy doesn't really flow back into you... point of fact, you be careful using internal energy no matter what! *facepalm*

[Kyrie Blaze]

While it's true that inevitably some of my own energy mixes in, reiki itself draws from...well, the universe, not internally. As a "healer" I'm just a conduit that directs the energy to where it needs to go.

But all the energy I pull (and I've been told by the gifted woman I worked on in my level II that I pull A LOT of energy; she equated some of it to lightning in regards to brightness and energy level), and that it moves through me to the recipient, is exhausting even though I ground and protect myself.

It only felt that way for a couple hours this morning. Much better after coffee and actually waking up.

[Orion]

*blink. Blink blink*

I understood all of that. That makes total sense... so that's what I'm doing. Sadly, I can't direct... I can just leech energy off of people... that's probably bad thinking about it...

Also, there's only so much you can do to protect yourself. Your one person, the universe has the energy of vastly more. Kinda burns you out just by stressing your limits... though by same token, you could assume that your own pools expand even slightly whenever you do so...

[Kyrie Blaze]

Ahhh. So you're technically an "energy vampire", then. It doesn't mean you or what you do are bad, you just need to be careful as those who are sensitive and don't know how to protect themselves from that type of thing (and it sounds like you don't consciously do it) are more vulnerable to you. You can learn to give your own energy through different ways but it can be touch and go when you first start out. Reiki...you would need to be taught by a master and have the power symbols set on you to be able to utilize it (unless you go about it like Usui-sensei and go meditate alone for a long time and happen to come across it by raising your kundalini...haha rushed explanation .__.) fully.

And what you said is true about limits. I haven't been using reiki a lot, so my limits are only just starting to expand. I'm not bothered by being so "weak" that I feel rough the next day--especially when you consider the fact I was working on a male that was in a car accident a while ago. His right leg is broken in two places and he's strained other muscle and cracked/broke a couple ribs (and the leg he can use is sore for having to hold his weight even with crutches, so that's more muscle and bone damage). So...I pulled a loooot of energy through last night, and even opened myself up almost completely and asked for more at the more troubling spots. No small wonder I was sore this morning.

[Orion]

Funnily enough, I'm an introvert...

But I can do it consciously, I just prefer not to, as I generally don't see the need for excess energy. I can control my own decently, and I don't happen to need more on most occasions. Unconsciously... I'm pretty sure I get small amounts from everyone near me within a certain area, but I can't really test it.

You be very informative.... Much appreciated. Most of the other people I know who dabble in the metaphysical rarely deal with internal energies or the energy of the universe as a whole, so for the most part I just do what feels right... and use my accumulated knowledge of everything I have picked up by listening and my own theories on such things. It works.

Your right, weak isn't the correct term... I believe "new" would be more proper. Anyway, I can see why that would drain you so much, that's a lot of overall damage. We tend to shrug that kind of damage off on here, but in real life, it's significant. Glad you're healing nicely from doing so.

Ah... I can do it to more then just people. Plants, animals, objects imbued with energy due to runes or arts, the earth... generally I'll just take it from the earth, though it has a calming effect on animals. The objects... well, a lot of wiccans tend to get irritated near me, so yeah. X3.

[Phoenix]

Very interesting stuff =) I've a read a few studies and things about reiki but it doesn't seem to be a large or popular thing in Australia!

[Kyrie Blaze]

@ Orion: well I'm in the same boat as you. xD Much of my knowledge on this is intuitive - and more intrinsic than anything - though I've probably been unconsciously using much of what I'm capable of my entire life. There are others on the board that deal in these types of things as well~ You can definitely take from and give to the earth, plants, animals, and even imbued objects, yes.

@ Josh: Haha. I could continue talking about it, or give you more info via Skype if you really wanted, though I am at work (and with the time difference you'll be heading to bed right away).

Braaaaannnndonnnnnnn it's your pooooossssst.
