Magic Monday

Also: I will not be putting through or answering any more questions about practicing magic around children. I've answered those in simple declarative sentences in the FAQ. If you read the FAQ and don't think your question has been answered, read it again. If that doesn't help, consider remedial reading classes; yes, it really is as simple and straightforward as the FAQ says. And further: I've decided that questions about getting goodies from spirits are also permanently off topic here. The point of occultism is to develop your own capacities, not to try to bully or wheedle other beings into doing things for you. I've discussed this in a post on my blog.
The image? I field a lot of questions about my books these days, so I've decided to do little capsule summaries of them here, one per week. This is my seventy-fifth published book, the sequel to The Witch of Criswell and thus the second Ariel Moravec occult mystery. Once again, it's eighteen-year-old Ariel and her adept grandfather on the case, investigating the theft of a rare magical book and a trail of clues that might lead to a pirate treasure hidden somewhere in the odd old East Coast port town of Adocentyn. Ariel and Dr. Bernard Moravec aren't the only ones on the trail, though, and the others will stop at nothing to get there first...
In case you can't tell, yes, I'm having enormous fun with these. You can get a copy here if you're in the United States and here elsewhere.

I've had several people ask about tipping me for answers here, and though I certainly don't require that I won't turn it down. You can use either of the links above to access my online tip jar; Buymeacoffee is good for small tips, Ko-Fi is better for larger ones. (I used to use PayPal but they developed an allergy to free speech, so I've developed an allergy to them.)

Re: Etheric / astral disturbances - SOP Data point(s) and question
Anyway last year we visited your country, Denver to be precise.
And boy was the SOP different there! The rays (mostly) went from laserthin light to broad and enscrolled blue-white beams of light with a nice golden sphere to rotate. I thought: so that is what it means to have a strong Egregore!
Now the question:
Since the downstairs neighbour at first was a bit underwhelmed by our moving in with ensuing difficulties that we managed to navigate after some time, I had the feeling that the ray to earth should not go through her space: I let the ray go in a bow. For a few days now I have been experimenting to let the ray go down directly and I get the feeling that somehow as if a corpse is buried under the cellar or something and it felt quite unclean. I didn´t whant to bring that energy down to earth so I started using the bowline again. I just wonder, is that something you have heard of? Or is it probably just me being squeamish because the cellar is also part vacation-home and the ray goes through a toilet, which I find...kind of strange?
Thank you and best wishes,

ps: since Milkyway1 recommended the Essene blessing walk, I´m doing it on my way to work (on a bike) and I´m phrasing the blessing as: may you be blessed if you want to be blessed (mögest Du gesegnet sein, wenn Du gesegnet sein magst) but - this is way to slow for when I get past the spot where people get on and off a metro. I tried to to it with multiple people but then the telepatic connection is ...not there?...different?...with one person at a time I can also feel a bit on how healthy people generally are or dunno where problems or energy-tie-ups lie. So the questions are: how can I speed up to bless all metro goers and is the "energy-info" I get an intrusion that I should stop?
Re: Etheric / astral disturbances - SOP Data point(s) and question
2) You can certainly direct the ray in any way that works for you. It doesn't have to go straight down.
3) I don't know anyone who can bless everyone in a crowd one at a time with reasonable concentration! I usually do it on whole groups in that situation, even though it's not quite the same.
4) No, the energy-sense that you have is part of a healing gift. When you get to the Dolmen Arch system of energy healing, work on learning to direct healing energy toward the imbalances you sense.
