<_Cassiopia_> Ok, y'all... here are the rules for the class....
<_Cassiopia_> Please, do not make comments, ask questions, or anything else, in open channel...
<_Cassiopia_> If you have a question, type @ and I will call on you.
<_Cassiopia_> If you want to greet someone, /msg them
<_Cassiopia_> There will be a question and answer period at the end, too...
<_Cassiopia_> If we split, I will wait a minute or two for everyone to get back 
  together...
<_Cassiopia_> If it looks to be a LONG split, I'll go on and the splitters can get the logs...
<_Cassiopia_> Logs will be available in a day or two...
<_Cassiopia_> Either e-mail me at Goddesmoon@aol.com and request one, or wait until you see me online later this week and ask for one.
<_Cassiopia_> OK... if everyone's here, let's get started...
<_Cassiopia_> To begin, I think a definition of what an aura is is in order....
<_Cassiopia_> Aura is the natural energy field that surrounds every living thing. 
[22:34]  @
<_Cassiopia_> Yes, Iliodos?
[22:34]  what about furniture etc?
[22:34]  some ppl say they have auras
[22:34]  some say they don't
<_Cassiopia_> Anything that has an atomic structure will have an auric field.
<_Cassiopia_> Every atom of a substance is comprised of electrons and protons 
  that are in constant movement. These electrons and protons are electrical and 
  magnetic energy vibrations.The atoms of animate life are more active and 
  vibrant than those of inanimate matter. 
[22:39]  @
<_Cassiopia_> Yes, StoneDragon?
[22:40]  I have to point out that the atoms that make up living things...
<_Cassiopia_> Yes?
[22:40]  are no more active than the atoms that make up non living thigs. :)
<_Cassiopia_> there is a difference between inanimate and non-living
[22:41]  very true
[22:42]  @
[22:42]  Yes I agree.. but it is not int the amount of movement of the particles in the atoms
<_Cassiopia_> Kraven, yes?
[22:42]  I think you mean that the energy field of non-living things is less active...
<_Cassiopia_> Yes, Kraven... thank you.
<_Cassiopia_> I think a small explanation may be in order... 
<_Cassiopia_> You see, my sister is the aura expert, I am the teaching expert. 
<_Cassiopia_> She gave me the material, I am teaching it.
<_Cassiopia_> Perhaps between the source and the class, it got a bit jumbled.
<_Cassiopia_> Please point out anything that seems to be mixed-up, if you see it... I am trying my best, but I may misinterpret the meaning of what I am saying....
[22:45]  I was not trying to contridict you. only help clarify.
[22:45]  :)
<_Cassiopia_> Thank you, Stone... that's all I can ask for... :-)
<_Cassiopia_> To continue...
<_Cassiopia_> Every atom of a substance is comprised of electrons and protons that are in constant movement. These electrons and protons are electrical and magnetic energy vibrations.The atoms of animate life are more active and vibrant than those of inanimate matter. 
<_Cassiopia_> The auric field is three deminsional. In a healthy person it makes an elliptical or egg shape around the body. 
<_Cassiopia_>  In the average person it extends 8-10ft around the body. 
[22:47]  i see over the net...does anyone else?
<_Cassiopia_> KJPX05B, please follow the rules of the channel....
<_Cassiopia_> Or we will have to -v you...
<_Cassiopia_> Thanks.
[22:47]  alright
<_Cassiopia_> The more vitalized your auric field is the more energy you will have to do the things you need and wish to do. 
[22:47]  @
<_Cassiopia_> Yes, KJPX05B
[22:48]  I can see Auras over the net....is this more empathic abilities or more actual seeing?
<_Cassiopia_> It really depends on you... is this with people you know, or people you don't know?
[22:49]  People I don't know
<_Cassiopia_> I suspect it is more imagination than anything....
[22:49]  no it isn't
[22:49]  I have seen people change their auras to specific ways and I have told them what they did
<_Cassiopia_> And an adding up of unconcious cues to make a judgement of what it WOULD look like, if yoiu could see it.
[22:51]  @
<_Cassiopia_> Yes?
[22:51]  @ - are we typing slow or are we lagged?
<_Cassiopia_> Typing slow AND lagging... a bit of both....
[22:52]  I have seen the shell of an aura...but very rarley the actual colors...but I see it in my mind.
[22:52]  @
[22:52]  Is this normal 
[22:52]  ok
[22:52]  @
<_Cassiopia_> Hold on, Chrissy and Jarnisol....
[22:52]  k
[22:52]  we are getting off to a slow start hehe... :)
<_Cassiopia_> Yes, a bit, Chrissy...
[22:53]  Cassi...Green, Blue and White
[22:54]  @
[22:54]  @
[22:54]  Azure...red with orange, hint of yellow
<_Cassiopia_> Is ANYONE normal???
[22:55]  @
[22:55]  Could I make a suggestion ?
<_Cassiopia_> Chrissy, then Jarnisol.
<_Cassiopia_> Sure, Azure.
 Azure... I lost you...
[22:57]  that some of his questions
 I am ghosted....
[22:57]  be answered
 Azure... please repeat your suggestion... I am Cassi, ghosted....
[22:57]  if not he can call Cassiopia in private to discuss it afterwards
 I didn't see any of your suggestion
[22:57]  WB
[22:57]  Why don't we go on with the class 
[22:57]  and KJPX05B will hear it
[22:57]  and it might
[22:57]  that some of his questions
[22:58]  be answered
[22:58]  if not he can call Cassiopia in private to discuss it 
   afterwards
[_Cassiopia_> Thank you, Azure, that's an excellent suggestion.
<_Cassiopia_> Chrissy, go ahead and ask your question....
<_Cassiopia_> And Jarnisol, go ahead and type, but don't send it...
[22:59]  no its ok i would like to go ahead with the class
<_Cassiopia_> Jarnisol?
[22:59]  actually my questions are basically the same as kjp... so please go on
<_Cassiopia_> The stronger your aura is the less likely you are to be affected by outside force. 
<_Cassiopia_> Auric fields that are weak are those in which outside influences are more likely to impinge upon you.
<_Cassiopia_> cThe aura can be weakened by many things some of those being Poor Diet, Lack of Exercise, Lack of Fresh Air, Lack of Rest, Stress, Alcohol, Drugs, 
  Tobacco or Negative habits
<_Cassiopia_> Now, you may be asking, "How do _I_ learn to see an aura?"
<_Cassiopia_> Well, there are a lot of steps to being able to see it well.
<_Cassiopia_> It is actualy easier to FEEL an aura than it is to see one.
[23:03]  :)
[23:03]  @
<_Cassiopia_> KJPX05B, yes?
[23:04]  That is what I wanted to ask...I feel auras more than I see them, is the "next step" for me to fully see them (I see them a little now).
<_Cassiopia_> Yes, that would be the logical next step.
[23:05]  How can you get "better" at seeing them?
<_Cassiopia_> Practice.
[23:06]  Thanks
[23:06] * Stone_Dragon cheers!
[23:06]  :)
[23:06]  sorry :)
<_Cassiopia_> It's Ok, Stone...
[23:07]  can i request all ? be asked after class
<_Cassiopia_> I hate to admit it, but...
<_Cassiopia_> Belgaarion, I try to answer them when a logical spot comes... but if everyone will agree, it would be nice to hold them until towards the end.
[23:08] * WildDawg agrees. :)
<_Cassiopia_> This is an exercise to work on increasing your awareness on how outside energies influence you.
[23:08]  :)
[23:08] * Belgaarion agrees
<_Cassiopia_> To start, get comfortable, seated if possible, and relax.
<_Cassiopia_> Hold one hand palm up. Point the index finger of the other hand into the palm of the upright hand. Your finger should be three to six inches away from your other hand.
<_Cassiopia_> Breath slowly and deeply, and as you breathe, imagin the energy building in your hand with you pointed index hand.
<_Cassiopia_> After a few minutes, slowly rotate your finger around the palm of the other hand. Visualize the energy creating a cirlce of energy in your palm.
<_Cassiopia_> Don't worry about colors, making complex patterns, etc. at first. You are just working on directing your energy with your thoughts.
<_Cassiopia_> Pay close attention to what goes on in your palm. Notice any sensations, of warmth, movement, etc. that you fel.
<_Cassiopia_> Next, try it on your forearm, on your legs, your stomach, etc.
[23:13]  can anyone give me a spell?
<_Cassiopia_> Next, find a partner.
<_Cassiopia_> Daisy, we don't give spells here.
<_Cassiopia_> Please read the rules sent you in my autogreet, and follow them, or you will be -v.
<_Cassiopia_> Get your partner to lie down on his/her stomach and pull up 
<_Cassiopia_> their shirt, so that their back is exposed.
<_Cassiopia_> Try tracing shapes on their back with your forefinger about 3 to 6 inches away.
<_Cassiopia_> Stick to simple shapes at first, squares, triangles, circles, etc.
<_Cassiopia_> You'll eventually want to move to larger and larger distances... 
<_Cassiopia_> You'll eventually work up to larger and larger distances, and more and more complex designs.
<_Cassiopia_> Once you get that good, you'll want to work on feeling the aura of another person.
<_Cassiopia_> (It's hard to do on yourself)
[23:21]  @
<_Cassiopia_> Yes, Stone?
[23:22]  I am assuming that your partnet should be able to feel the design you are attempting?
<_Cassiopia_> Yes, Stone. Your partner should be able to feel what you trace.
<_Cassiopia_> Yes, Stone. Your partner should be able to feel what you trace.
<_Cassiopia_> If they cannot, then they may not be willing, or you may need to 
  concentrate more.
[23:25]  :) THX
<_Cassiopia_> NP
<_Cassiopia_> Next thing is to actually FEEL the aura.
<_Cassiopia_> You have probably felt an auric field before.
[23:29]  @
<_Cassiopia_> Yes, WildDawg?
[23:30]  When sombody walks behind me I get a tingle.  Is that the aura of the otehr person?
<_Cassiopia_> Yes, it probably is.
[23:30]  k, thx
<_Cassiopia_> Most people have felt an auric field before.
<_Cassiopia_> Ask yourself the following questions...
<_Cassiopia_> Yes, Stone. Your partner should be able to feel what you trace.
[23:31]  Ummm ok! Tkx again!
<_Cassiopia_> Sorry, Stone.... copied the wrong thing.....
[23:32]  heheh
<_Cassiopia_> When you are around certain people do 
  you feel drained? 
<_Cassiopia_> Do you associate certain colors w/ people? (example "You always seem like a yellow person to me") 
<_Cassiopia_> Have you ever felt when someone was 
  staring at you? Have you ever had an instant liking 
  or disliking for someone? Have you ever been able to 
  sense another persons presence before you actually
   heard or saw them?
<_Cassiopia_> Have you ever walked into a room and 
  tightened up, fidgeted or felt angry? Do some rooms 
  make you want to stay? leave?
[23:35]  hi there
[23:35]  would anyone mind to sum up some misconceptions about witches for my friends?
<_Cassiopia_> Starlust.. please read the autogreet I sent you..... and follow the rules here...
<_Cassiopia_> We would be glad to help, but not right here, right now.
[23:36]  I say kick them
<_Cassiopia_> Starlust... I would love to talk to you after class, however...
<_Cassiopia_> To continue...
<_Cassiopia_> If you can answer yes to any of the questions I asked, you have experienced an auric field.
<_Cassiopia_> Many of you have probably felt 'close' to someone almost immediately, or gotten 'bad vibes' from someone.
<_Cassiopia_> That's when you're feeling their aura.
<_Cassiopia_> You can feel it also if you concentrate on your hands, as you did in the other exercise, and instead of projecting energy with one finger and feeling it with the other, you feel the energy with both hands.
<_Cassiopia_> You'll feel 'hot', 'cold', or other things like that at first. Keep trying, and you'll get more detail and more information.
<_Cassiopia_> That's all I wanted to work on for tonight.
<_Cassiopia_> I may teach a more advanced class at another time...
<_Cassiopia_> FYI, much of the information for this class is from the book "How to see and read the aura" by Ted Andrews (Llewlellyn books) and from my sister.
[23:44]  Who here wants to learn the Tree of Life exercise (for grounding and centering)
[23:44]  sounds intreging
[23:44]  Interesting. Good Class Cassi, thanks!
<_Cassiopia_> Thanks, buq
<_Cassiopia_> Stone, I'd love for you to teach it...
[23:45]  Thank you Cas.
[23:45]  :)
<_Cassiopia_> NP, WildDawg
[23:45]  Thanks Cas
[23:45]  Interested parties can join #tree
[23:46]  when, now?
[23:46]  Interested parties can join 
   #tree_of_life
<_Cassiopia_> Stone... can you log and send it my way 
  later>
<_Cassiopia_> If anyone has any questions, on the class 
  or in general, just ask away...
[23:47]  I do, ...
<_Cassiopia_> Go ahead, 
  BlueDeath...
[23:50]  Magick, how important is it to 
   Wicca?  I mean, (please forgive me being new) is it 
   Magick or Nature?
<_Cassiopia_> Wicca is a religion. Magick isn't necessa
  rily important in the religion. I know some Wiccan that do NO magick, I know magicians that aren't 
  Wiccan, and I know Wiccans that practice magick.
<_Cassiopia_> And there is nothing to excuse... everyones new, at some time or other....
[23:53]  does the time to get over a sickness 
   have anything to do with auras?
<_Cassiopia_> It can, but it auras are more a reflection of your inside.
<_Cassiopia_> You can use them to help heal yourself, 
  if you're really good....
[23:54]  Thank you.  I understand a little 
   bit better now.
[23:55]  How do you help heal?
<_Cassiopia_> That's a whole class in itself, buqnaqd....
[23:56]  what kind of computer do you have 
   cass
<_Cassiopia_> I have a pentium 166, IBM compatibl
  e...
[23:56]  k
<_Cassiopia_> Why, Trawble?
[23:57]  i am trying to figure out how to 
   decompress the files you sent
<_Cassiopia_> They're in txt format....
[23:58]  i have an amiga
<_Cassiopia_> Ah... the files may not be compatible.
<_Cassiopia_> I'm working on a web page for them....
[23:59]  hiya sextant
[23:59]  they aren't compatible
[23:59]  mp
<_Cassiopia_> Anyone else got any questions?
[23:59]  what do you know about auric 
   healing?
[23:59]  Yes, ...
[23:59]  Cassiopia, thank you.  Have enjoyed 
   your class :)  Can you suggest a good reference 
   source/author regarding chakras/meditation?
[0:00]  Merry meet Nikolete
<_Cassiopia_> Annabele, I'm not sure what kind of books 
  you're looking for in that field (there are dozens). I'd suggest sifing through the internet's resources first.
<_Cassiopia_> Asria.. that's another class in itself....
<_Cassiopia_> I'll be teaching that in the near future, I hope. Keep checking back...
[0:01]  That I will.  Thanx :)
<_Cassiopia_> NP... and thank you!
[0:02]  Good Night Blessed Be
<_Cassiopia_> Blue Death, did you have another question?
[0:03]  Yes, but it's a basic type...  Like I said, I'm new.  Do you have any good "newbie" material?
<_Cassiopia_> I have a good FAQ... my classes are a 
  fairly good source for anything I've taught on, and 
  there are some excellent books I can reccommend.
<_Cassiopia_> As well as some wonderful things on 
  the net.
[0:05]  MP and night all.
<_Cassiopia_> What kinds of things are you looking for?
[0:06]  I would appreciate all, if I may....
<_Cassiopia_> Which classes would you like? I have 
  meditation, symbolism, runes, circle casting, candle 
  magick, living in an Xian world, and tools.....

   not feeling well all of a sudden
[0:09]  i'd love all of your logs.  may i?
<_Cassiopia_> If noone else has any questions...
