What is Energy?
Energy is the basic life force that animates everything in the universe. Some people believe that only animals and people have energy, but other people understand that there is energy in everything. The wind, the soil, the oceans, trees, rocks, and everything in creation is believed to have some form of energy or life force. Some people call energy the soul, but it's more than just an individual spirit that is energy. A scholarly definition of energy comes from sciencenotes.org. They say that “ Energy is the ability to do work or heat objects.” They say energy can change from one form to another and it is not created or destroyed. If it seems lost, it has just changed forms. They say photosynthesis is a form of energy- which is when green things like plants convert sunlight into nutrition to support their growth. Read more from that article here: What Is Energy?

When magical people speak about energy, they may use different words to express it, but they are defining the same thing. An existing source of power is used to make things happen. Energy can be thought of as fuel used to power a goal. One surprising source of energy is something called encouragement. When you have a group of people who you love who believe in you, it makes it easier for you to try to reach a goal. What would professional athletes do without their fans? Sometimes, discouragement that makes you angry gives you the drive to prove your critics wrong. You still do the work to try to win whether you are supported or discouraged, but you help to empower your journey to success with the energy other people’s attitudes make.
Not everybody relies on other people’s energy to propel them forward. They have their own ambitions and hopes and dreams to give them strength. Stress to avoid undesirable consequences has been used to move things forward as well. If you think about it, motivation is a number one driving force is getting things moving. It is a form of energy that creates another form of energy that translates into something called work. Work is moving things along to create a result. So, the more you work, the more energy you create. It’s something we call magic! Read about different kinds of magical traditions here: Different Types of Magic
Can We Move Energy?
We can and do move energy every single day. Everything we do creates something and there is a reaction to everything that we create. Every time you reach out to someone who you've not talked to in a while, you create something. It's most likely that you will create joy with that energy that you have expended to make contact. Every time you smile at a stranger who looks sad, you create a little bit of happiness. Every time you rescue a homeless animal you create healing and wellness. The actions that you take based on your good intentions create good positive energy and create positive changes in the world.
Likewise the decisions that you make based on negativity create negative changes in the world. When you scream at a stranger in traffic because you're frustrated you're not getting where you want to go as quickly as you'd like, you create stress and frustration. When you choose to allow unconstructive criticism to stop you from doing the best you can, you hold yourself back from positive results. When you have the power to help someone and you refuse to because you'd rather do something that you feel is more fun, you allow suffering to continue and contribute to it. Every decision that we make moves energy every minute of the day. Read about making magic happen in your life every day here: Using Practical Magic in Everyday Life
What Doesn’t Move Energy Well?
Even though everything that we do can move energy, there are some strategies that people choose that are not as effective. Giving up efforts when something proves difficult is not going to achieve your goals. Sitting around and complaining isn't going to accomplish anything but make you feel a little better- and while feeling better is a good thing, it won't necessarily create positive change in the world. Only doing spell work and not actively working toward a goal does not move energy very well either.
Giving Up
We have all reached a point that we have been exhausted. Sometimes it feels like you're spinning your wheels and going nowhere instead of making progress towards a goal. It can make you wonder why you bother trying in the first place and just make you feel like giving up. Please don't. Sometimes it takes a while to achieve success, but in the end it's always worth it to keep trying. If you feel like giving up, it's understandable, but there's something you can do to make sure you don't. Sit down and take a break and really think about why you got started in the first place. Think about what it is that you want to accomplish and think about other people who have accomplished the same thing, especially people who it took a very long time to succeed. Let them inspire you. Then get up and move forward and try again.
Just Complaining
Sometimes, you just have to complain. Nothing can feel better when you are frustrated than venting about your feelings, especially to people who feel the same way as you do. Is that all you're going to do though? To accomplish goals, sometimes complaining with the right people can get the creative juices flowing and you can come up with a solution. If complaining is used to identify problems, it's a good use of movement of energy. If you never move forward toward a solution, complaining is just sitting around grumbling. Move past the talking stage and get busy finding solutions. Read about the power of unifying with other people to move energy here: Teamwork: The Power of Strength in Numbers
Doing Only Spells
Spell work can be a very powerful way to move energy as long as that's not the only thing you do. When used to help get you in the mindset of accomplishing something, spells can work as enchantments that you put on yourself. If you just sling a spell, pushing the energy for a wish out to the universe and take no steps to try and make that wish come true, don't expect the universe to do it for you. Spell work sets an intention, which means it creates a center of focus for your mind. It's not just making a wish and expecting some mysterious higher power to make it happen for you. Wishes come true best when you help to make them come true yourself.
What Moving Energy Accomplishes
Moving energy accomplishes so many wonderful things. It can initiate healing in beautiful ways. It can also improve your relationships and countless ways. Moving energy effectively also creates positive personal growth in your life.
Healing
Healing is used to make suffering stop. It can heal physical illness, crippling pain, emotional distress, loneliness, or even deprivation. If you have had a falling out with your best friend and it broke both of your hearts, move energy by being the first to reach out and reconcile and you can heal two broken hearts and reconcile your relationship. Loneliness can be healed with a phone call, a text, an invitation, or even a surprise visit. If you see that your coworker is under a lot of stress, try inviting them to have lunch with you. Even if you don't ask them what is bothering them, a friendly lunch sometimes alleviates the stress that they feel.
Deprivation creates an especially hurtful situation that can create great illness through poverty. Feeding the hungry, clothing the naked, housing the homeless, or even just giving someone a ride when their car is broken down can alleviate deprivation and create healing in someone's life. So, move that energy and heal. Say yes to healing in any way you can. Learn about the magical power of saying yes to the right things here: The Magical Things That Happen When You Say Yes
Better Relationships
Moving energy in positive ways can build better relationships in your life. When you say no to toxicity in your life, you make room for better relationships. For example, when you break up with your toxic significant other who cheats, moving them out of your life, where the negativity was creates space for positivity and better people. If you admit that you were wrong and apologize to your best friend, your friendship will grow stronger because they will know that you love and care about them and really want the relationship to work. If you make it a point to remember anniversaries, milestone birthdays, special occasions, and make holidays special, people who you're in relationships with will feel closer to you. So, create positive energy by doing positive things for the people who you love and your relationships will blossom.
Personal Growth
Moving energy can contribute to personal growth also. If you want to move up in your career, taking those career development courses and the evenings will pay off in the long run. If you've stopped cross country running and want to start again, putting in the work to get back to where you were will help you to meet your goal. If you want to overcome all of your worst habits and replace them with good habits, you will become a much better version of yourself. The time and efforts that you put into cultivating all the best in yourself will make you grow personally, and transform and to the best version of yourself that you can be.

How Do You Move Energy?
Moving energy is done in various ways. Some people use their psychic abilities to do it and other people start by visualizing what their goals are. Careful planning helps to come up with ways to move energy to create results. Then, plain old hard work will move more energy than most anything else.
Psychic Energy Moving
Did you ever start thinking of someone, and decided to call them? When they picked up, did they say”‘I was just thinking about you”? Chances are that was not a coincidence. One of you thought of the other first, and the energy from that reached the other before the phone call. This is a special psychic ability called telepathy, and not everybody has that gift. Moving energy with your mind is possible through telepathy, though. If you are one of the lucky people who has this ability, go ahead and use it when you are trying to create change. Experiment with sending suggestions to people telepathically, and see if it works. You will never know until you try.
Visualize
Visualization can help bring about results and it is the first step toward moving energy. What is it that you want to accomplish? Do you want to buy a house? Get a dog? Redesign your garden? No matter how big or small a dream you have, if you first visualize it, you will know what direction to go to accomplish it. Go ahead and daydream about the most fantastical thing you want to do. Some people say it is childish to daydream- but everything that was ever accomplished was first daydreamed about. How can you make your dreams come true if you never dream about them to begin with?

Plan
Now that you know what you want, it is time to make plans. During the planning stages, see how people who achieved what you want did it. Is there a formula for success they followed that you can replicate? Maybe you don’t need to look to other people for inspiration. If you have a way you think works, plan to use it, and then there is just one thing left to do…
Work
You know what you want, and you have a great plan, not roll up your sleeves and get to work! Nothing replaces hard work, and good effort, and that is how you make your mark in the world. Get to work creating the changes you want to see!
Energy is the basic particles that comprise everything from the soul within us to the matter rocks and trees are made from. Moving that basic lifeforce creates everything. Some people would call energy “work” and indeed, working is one powerful way to move energy. You can also use psychic abilities to move energy, and make plans before embarking on your work to create changes. Remember that everything we do causes changes, with the world around us reacting to whatever we do. Make sure your energy is directed toward positive changes, and you can make a powerful impact.
If you’re looking for guidance about how you can create positive changes, look no further. Reach out to one of our psychics to find out how today.
