- "6 Minutes of Witchcraft with Laura Tempest Zakroff: Charging in Magick".
Contact with the earth for charging crystals makes sense for me. A few decades ago, I bought an amethyst crystal because it had been badly mined and needed healing. I planned to take it to a waterfall I knew, where it would be in contact with rocks and the waterfall. As it turned out, visualising it being there was enough to heal it, and I was - unexpectedly - able to use it.
I also bury things that need clearing - for long periods. I have magickal tools that I want buried for a year after I die before anyone tries to use them.
I agree with Ms Zakroff that the human body can "suck" at being a battery, but the human aura . . . the human aura is a different matter ☺ ; - In this next video, the presenter starts to expand on the concept that we shouldn't drain our own energy. However, we can generate energy - for me, mostly through alternate nostril breathing. Also, as Ms Zakroff says, we can connect with sources, and work in many, many, many ways:
"6 Minutes of Witchcraft with Laura Tempest Zakroff: The Essence of Magick (part 1)",
and, after a battery problem,
"6 Minutes of Witchcraft with Laura Tempest Zakroff: Essence Of Magick Continued (Part 2)".
As she says, these videos have lots to think about.
