He Vants To Suck Your... Energy: A Field Guide To The Emotional Vampire
Here's the thing nobody warns you about energy vampires: they rarely look like monsters. They look like the friend who always has a crisis right when you've finally found a quiet evening. The family member who can derail any conversation back to their suffering within ninety seconds, no matter the topic. The partner whose moods set the weather for the entire household, and everyone else just learns to carry an umbrella.
Daily Energy Hygiene
Breathwork and visualization can help restore balance within the chakras. Imagine each chakra as a wheel of light turning smoothly and evenly, allowing energy to circulate throughout the body. If one area feels tense or heavy, imagine the breath flowing directly into that center, softening and energizing it.
Energetic Cord Cutting and Boundary Repair
Energetic cord cutting begins with awareness. Visualization is a common tool: imagine the cords extending from your aura to another person, emotion, or situation, and visualize them gently being released or dissolved. Some practitioners use the breath, sound, or Reiki to facilitate this process, while others incorporate ritual tools such as crystals, candles, or intention statements. The key is to release the cord without judgment, returning your energy to its natural flow.
Chakra Imbalances in Real Life (What They Actually Feel Like)
The sacral chakra, associated with emotions, pleasure, and creativity, frequently shows imbalance through emotional numbness, difficulty forming intimate relationships, or loss of creative inspiration. Some individuals may experience the opposite effect, feeling emotionally overwhelmed, highly reactive, or dependent on external validation to feel fulfilled.
Understanding the Aura Layers (and How Damage Happens)
The aura is often described as having several layers that extend outward from the physical body. The layer closest to the body relates strongly to physical vitality and sensation. When this layer is balanced, individuals often feel grounded, energized, and physically stable. Stress, illness, poor sleep, or prolonged exhaustion can weaken this layer, leaving a person feeling depleted or vulnerable to further imbalance.
Lavender – The Healer’s Breath
Lavender remains a key ally for cleansing the aura, preparing for ritual, and gently uplifting emotional states. Whether burned, brewed, or worn, it reminds us that calm is not passive—it is powerful.

Cutting Cords
There are many different rites of protection that people will choose based upon their particular magic or meditational practice. Just like with any hexing spells, I would caution you to use protection spells sparingly and for the right reasons. Don’t use them to push the world away. Use them to encourage the best of the world to share your life with and to weed out anything toxic and unhealthy.
Equinox
The Autumn Equinox, occurring this September 22, marks a moment of perfect balance between light and dark as day and night stand equal in length. This pivotal point in the wheel of the year invites us to seek harmony within ourselves, embracing the changing season and the natural shift toward introspection. As we prepare to move from the warmth and vibrancy of summer into the quieter, reflective energy of autumn, the Equinox offers a powerful opportunity to recalibrate our minds, bodies, and spirits.
Energy and Light
Just like the Sun – the Center of our Universe – powers life throughout the Solar System including all of life here on Earth – you also have an energetic center and that is your Soul or Spirit. No matter your faith, your religious traditions or your beliefs, you cannot deny that you are Energy and Energy does not die – it only transmutes or changes or evolves. A tree that blooms in spring and yields fruit in summer and sheds leaves in fall that die in winter, is a perfect representative of the seasons of a life – we are born, we begin to grow, we blossom into fullness, we recede and change and wither, and we die but then there is rebirth. That rebirth may simply be the release of our invisible energy force – our qi or ki or lifeforce as it is called in the East – into the world.
