Topic: Cerridwenn Diary
I was lying in bed, feeling quite sick when I decided that I was going to try a simple visualization magick on myself to stop myself from feeling ill. I meditated until my breath was at an even pace and I felt like an extension of my environment. I then envisioned a white hot light filling my body with healing energy. After this, I felt quite refreshed!
Then, a few seconds later, the entire room began to spin, and I felt like I was falling. I'd felt like that before, so just let myself go with the falling feeling, figuring (like every other time before) I would just knock myself out of it. That didn't really work.
It wasn't long before I realized that I had drawn way too much energy into my self. My healing energy had been turned into a violent electric current circulating my body, making me feel sick. I quickly poured my excess energy into the earth (I always choose to give excess energy to the earth because I have an affinity to everything except the earth), and felt instantly better.
The point of my story is to make sure you only take the energy you need. If you take too much, it will come back to you...
