What do I mean when I say I "SEE" your energy?

It is not the ocular-visual seeing, rather mental images when recalling ideas and memories.

Just like recalling a photograph you know you have

During a reading when I discuss 'seeing your energy' I am not talking about the eye/brain/nervous system type of seeing. These images aren't the result of the brain translating electric impulses caused by light waves. I don't get them confused with what I see when my eyes are open.

Rather they are like memories, things I know, things I've seen previously that I need to recall to gather the information.

It is a key reason why I doubted myself and this ability for so long, because it feels like a memory, like an idea, like the imagination. I would venture the same brain waves that occur when meditating or dreaming are the same that are used for these readings.

What do I see?

Very similar imagery that is used on this site, orb and spheres of various color and texture and composition. Normally on a black background, normally accompanied by moons, rings and other similar shapes.

How clear are the images?

Normally steady images, but nothing as consistent or as vivid as waking vision. Think of a photograph you know you have framed somewhere you can't see right now in front of you. Think about who is in that photo, what colors do you see, what details are on the articles of clothing? It feels very similar to that sensation of recalling photographs. I can recall or 'see' them well enough to pull details from them, but it requires intention and effort.

Can't you make up any image you want then?

Yes I could, and I do, to help get clarity. Often times when I see someone's orb and it is confusing to me, or doesn't seem clear, or I'm having a hard time communicating what I see, I purposefully change something of the orb. Add green, for instance, or make an additional orb, or make it darker or lighter, or bigger.... but then, the original image reappears. All the 'extras' that I added fade away. What is the true reading always remains. What I distort or change with my own intentions always fades away. Adding stuff to it and 'washing it away' helps to solidify to me what is being perceived.

Can you see anyone's energy at any time?

Sometimes yes, sometimes no. Some folks have no desire or awareness to shield themselves, some people can't help but be closed off or choose to not reflect their energy. When I look into people to get glance of their energy, I can normally sense something. If I don't have permission and/or the person is closed off, there is a lot of 'static'. The image is unclear, or is extremely dark. Think of a radio that isn't fully tuned into a specific station, or non digital televisions that have poor reception. Once someone gives me their explicit permission, the image becomes crystal clear, in most cases more details become apparent that weren't obvious prior.

I only dig in when I have permission. Studying someone's energy without permission feels bad to me, feels dishonest, as if I am reading their diary without consent. I treat this process with the utmost respect. If I had a lock on a diary, its because I don't want anyone reading it, so that is how I treat people with shielded or closed energy.

So you know everyone's secrets?

Not even close. I don't know what the colors and make up mean specifically. Green for instance can mean money, or growth, or nature, or healing. During a reading, while describing what I see, the colors often are associated with feelings and emotions. I need to talk through them to better translate what is being sensed. I do my best to just express what I see and sense, and leave the interpretation to the person getting read. My life experiences and my perceptions are limitations and hindrances to meaningful interpretations. Someone could have a lot of boiling red lava seas, that seems clear to be passionate energy. Could be rage, could be immense physical exertion, it largely depends on other elements in the reading.

"I don't know"

I will repeat this phrase more often than any other. I will tell you what I sense, what I feel and a handful of synonyms and related phrases when describing your energy. Much of this needs to be worked through, shaken out before it makes any sense. Often it is confusing to me and doesn't make sense, but can be incredibly personal and impactful to the person being read. I've learned to share what I see, that always means a lot more than anything I could 'make up.'
