Lately I noticed something about my energy work. As I am entering the realm of working with emotionally charged content in my blockages, I am noticing side effects in the proximity of others.
First I had problems completely releasing the emotional energies, and entered states of emotional release which brought on the emotions commonly associated with the Taoist Five Elements as negative sides - grief/sadness (Metal/Lungs), depression/fear (Water/Kidneys), anger/range (Wood/Liver), anxiety/agitation (Fire/Heart) and disassociation (Earth).
The better my energy work got, the more the positive sides of the Five Elements manifested in my life (same element order): Happiness/enthusiasm, vitality, compassion, joy and balance. Releasing a blocked energy allows for the opposite to arise.
The energy can be efficiently released if it is moved to the edge of the aura. I expand energies to resolve them, and then ground them. Since then side effects on myself have been minimal.
But I noticed another side effect - when I was too close to my girlfriend she began to cry during a release. I didn't make the connection, and then found she might have been exposed to a sadness within me being released. I stopped and tried to cheer her up. Later on she was very happy again, but it was spooky, as there was no trigger to be sad.
I promised ducks, didn't I?
I sat by the river on a bench. All was quiet, I was feeling nice and relaxed, watching the ducks (my fav duck I nicked Daisy was there - all white with an orange bill). No person was within my "safety perimeter" and so I closed my eyes and began blockage work. As I came into the "release outward" stage, the ducks became irritated. More and more ducks started to quack and quite some ruckus arose. More ducks became agitated and no reason visible. Two males were even "complaining" to a person on a nearby bench.
I made the connection between my energy work and the ducks and grounded and stopped, and this brought some easing, and then I sent the ducks some goodwill from my heart (I *do* like ducks) and all became peaceful again.
So - if doing intensive energy work, please stay away from ducks (and other lovely creatures as well).
