Learning The Power of the Mind

[ILLYRIAN]

There are many reasons why you might want to develop your Psychic Ability. You might want to improve your capacity to learn new skills be those skills learning another language, gaining the ability to understand computers or being able to move objects using just your thought.
Those reasons are, as far as I'm concerned, just the secondary reason as you need to learn how to develop the way how to promote that ability.

For Starters.
Sit, stand or even lie down whilst removing all awareness of your surrounding noises.
At a later date once you have gained the ability of inner peace try thinking of Astral Projection - remember what was where imagine your spirit in the next room. Note what books are where.

Imagine your physical self is in the next room, try to move a specific book.
You may want to improve your ability to concentrate.
Think of yourself walking through a garden, walking along a path, noting what flowers are at your side. Does the edge of the garden have a stone wall of a type of vine. See the pathway is it constructed by the way of slabs of stones or gravel. Pay attention to the path.

Once your ability to concentrate on nothing is heightened you may start to develop the powers of your mind. Personally I prefer to move objects with thought. I have a short section of electrical conduit, a join for lengths of pipe. By concentrating the powers of my mind I can increase the movement the item rolls that denotes the greater the Psychic ability I have at my disposal. Then you'll find you can do other stuff much easier.

What's that? When Willow asked Buffy to seek Dawn and ask her to be present for Willow to teach her the elements of wizardry.

Dawn could hardly contain her excitement to learn the secrets she had been exposed to for so many years, she happily wandered to the meeting with her sister and Willow. In the quiet of the dining room Dawn sat on a chair, she was immediately suspicious. Willow faced her, and smiled. “You are right to be suspicious, you are not here to learn about me, I want you to learn about you.”

Dawn looked sad, she grimaced when she faced her sister. “Don’t blame Buffy, I arranged this. I have noticed how you try to help people, so I thought that is what you ought to do. Your sister is a vampire slayer you have a friend who is a vampire, and you who has more power than you know, but you are a bit skinny,” said Willow. “I’m not a fighter am I?” asked Dawn.

“No but you do not need to be, all your power is inside you before you became as you are you were an energy ball. It is time to use the energy.” Dawn stared at Willow, “Why, what will that do how will having power inside of me help?” asked Dawn. “Something about me, I internalize my magic I don’t do spells, I see you as someone who will internalize like I do,” said Willow.

Buffy waited until Dawn had gone to powder her nose. “Will, do you really believe Dawn will be able to do what you want?” asked Buffy. “It isn’t what I want for her, I have seen what she can do, she wants to be a useful part of us. So her knowing how to bring about magic with the power she has inside her will make her crucial to helping us, them, and herself,” said Willow.

“Do we need to test her and if we do who can we use to test her?” asked Buffy. Willow looked about the room then smiled, “That girl you were friends with when you were Anne, where is she, would you like to know she is okay?” asked Willow. Buffy smiled.

Part 4

Dawn was left to enter the decaying wooden house, its interior walls had the paint starting to peel from it. Even now as each torn curtain that was draped from its curtain rail moved so silently that it scared the many of her school friends who chose to stay to prove their bravery.

Dawn looked at the ghost of an old man, she felt for him when she saw his indignity at being herded from room to room; chased by boys purely who were more than willing to impress the screaming girls exactly how beneficial the girls would become by being with them.

Following them from the house in the morning Dawn apologized to the old man as she wandered from the house. As the darkness fell the following evening, Dawn wandered into the house going up the stairs in front of the door to wait on the landing.

Presently Dawn saw the old man walk from his bedroom, he followed the route he took every night just as he did when he was alive. “Mind if I walk with you as you go down to the kitchen?” asked Dawn. She smiled to him while he faced her, his face likened to that of the kids he scared.

“I can tell by your clothes you have been here many years, you’d think that others would give you the honour you deserve, please tell me kind sir what is your name so that I may address you properly?” asked Dawn. Surprised at her pleasant manner.

“Thank you,” said the ghost, “My name is Lord Roderick Balfour, I came to these shores in the late 1760’s, not to fight just to govern though a broken floorboard had me fall from the upstairs veranda to the ground. I’ve been here ever since,” said Lord Roderick.

“Your nights are not something I would look forward to, having schoolchildren invade you house and chase you only to show how brave they are,” said Dawn just before she jumped out in front of some boys, the girls did not see how brave they were that night.

Dawn stepped out from the gloom to introduce her to several of the girls, she asked them not to be so scared of the ghost then asked them, “Are you scared of an old man of 100 years old, if not then why are you scared of an old man of two hundred and seventy? Dawn looked to the girls.

They began to appear guilty then announced that they were scared because the old man was a ghost. “So because he has passed through the scary experience of death do you feel scared, I bet if you took the time to be nice to him would you not like to gain a friend?” asked Dawn.

Lord Roderick Balfour began to smile to Dawn, “Some are worthy of being friends, thank you,” said Lord Roderick. Unseen by them Willow and Buffy stood by the partially opened door. Buffy smiled to Willow, “It seems like Dawn is truly one of us now.”

Learning The Power of the Mind Part 5

Realising she would be left to form a group by herself Dawn sought what aid would be useful to her sister. Considering Willows accomplishments Dawn decided to seek out a few who would believe in the lessons construed with witchcraft.

“She is getting there, though considering who she is frequenting with I doubt they’d ever be invited to accompany us,” said Willow. Buffy looked puzzled to her, seeing Buffy’s perplexed look Willow indicated a girl that stood some ten paces from Dawn.

Buffy was surprised to see Amy moving to be next to Dawn. Willow was impressed as she thought she recognized three of the Wiccan faith who she had started to befriend at the college. It was then she admitted to herself that Dawn was building a reputable group of mental warriors.

Dawn had started to gain those who sought abilities and powers of a personal level of psychic development. When Willow requested deeper information about what each of the abilities involved Dawn knew she had work to do.

Dawn had each of them choose two powers to learn or improve to do better; Amy had picked ergokinesis and invisibility. Rose took energy medicare and atmokinesis. Grace wanted pyrokinesis to what they already knew or were teaching themself.

Dawn began to teach herself telekinesis and telepathy, she chose those two so they did not blend the powers with the other ability. Retro - cognition with thoughtography fell to Angharad while Rosanna won herself the gifts of shapeshifting with levitation.

Amy and Dawn had developed a friendship together, that allowed them to rent a house together, knowing the owner of the house was into self – improvement Amy grew happiest at the thought of deciding the next member of them would get atmokinesis and the power of the curse.

Upon learning what gifts were chosen for the next incumbent to learn Dawn became somewhat jealous of her. Seeking to gain a friendship with the world of demon Willow suggested to Dawn that she befriend D’Hoffryn. Dawn did so by asking him to recommend a girl to them.

He was about to get rid of a vengeance demon, one that neither he nor Lloyd really wanted to as she was a nice person. After Dawn and Amy met her, they both saw good in her so they offered her a position as one of them. My name is Rosalind she informed them.

Amy and Dawn were happy at the thought of Rosalind being the one to enter the fold of the witches of psychic abilities. Willow made it known to them that a portion of the witches herb garden in Cornwall had the name Ashwordly; Amy nodded to Dawn.

Rosalind grew quite impressed that it had been chosen for her to learn about the qualifications that could be gained from developing powers of atmokinesis and especially when combined with power of the curse. A subject which she had already begun to look into.

Part 6

Four days later one of Willows friends passed on what her father had said earlier that day. There had been an accident in a mine not far from there that he worked at. A replacement shift of miners that had been trapped by a cave in at the bottom of an elevator shaft.

Seventeen miners had been on that elevator when the cave in started, they were trapped in the elevator cage at the bottom of the shaft. Willow looked at a mud map of the area and knew there was nothing she nor Buffy could do on to help except for informing Dawn.

Hopeful of a successful outcome, Dawn sought to gather those in the coven to a meeting. She wanted to create a small gathering after letting all the coven know of the situation to see if there was anything the members thought they could do.

Dawn had thought about who would be best for the predicament the miners were in. The members of the coven considered who of them they thought it would be best to include. The coven decided that Dawn’s ability of Telekinesis should be put to the test.

In addition to her it was agreed that Rosanna’s ability to cause the Levitation of rocks on the cage to set them aside, that way would allow the cables for the elevator cage to be avoided. Rosalind was chosen to deliver her variable of the Curse to help those trapped.

A few of the rest of the witches in the coven sought an explanation as to why the Curse should be included, Rosalind had them begin to accept the word that what was a hindrance to one person might well be a benefit to another

Before either Dawn and Amy both realized there was an problem that Rose noticed only increased. She and Rosalind saw a need for them to meet in secret. Between them they agreed that Rose would seek to control the day to day running of the weather patterns.

Rosalind would pull her gifts to bring about control for the vast weather patterns such as cyclones, monsoons thunder storms and the event of lightning over dry vegetation. Should a flood or a fire occur from them Rosalind would invoke her control of the cause

Also would her gift of the Curse show the difference in her gift or damnation of a Curse. Keeping her distance from the cave-in Rosalind targeted her powers towards the dams of waste water from the gold mine that included vast elements of acid.

When the waste water pits had been dealt with Rosalind managed the gift of the Curse to move unwanted boulders that blocked any escape of the trapped miners and placed them in open pockets of the mine wall Rosalind.

Dawn directed her energy toward the multitude of rocks that combined to compress the larger boulders that had caused the miners to become trapped. Rosalind spent hours moving each smaller rock from the tunnel to a place where it could remain safely.

During the time that the members of the coven had been working in secret the mines managers had been putting into place the emergency rescue crews. They wanted to cause the miners to be freed from their dangerous predicament.

Much was their surprise when the emergency rescue teams were going to the area that they were confronted with the miners walking towards them. Though the miners knew that they were being rescued they never met those who should be thanked.

Knowing the situation might have been far worse Amy and Dawn were pleased that the coven had started to make known of the coven’s ability. Also that none of the coven reported any stress to themselves.

Gathering their known abilities together Dawn and Amy knew there was reason to include other powers. They decide to ask about, to see if any others wanted to be with the coven. It was suggested that a development of Ergokinesis be included that had control over fire.

Another ability that might be best included was Automotive Writing, although much of the importance of what could be done with it was ignored by many there Amy stated that it could be put to great use to help bond the other abilities together.

Part 7

Setting their plans in motion, the group of them was soon set upon. The leaders of the coven were annoyed that their plans had obviously been exposed to all the wrong people. Dawn sought assistance from a few friends who were thankful to be asked.

When Dawn and others of the coven asked their answers those members of the debating team pointed to the same person and though he was deemed to be the guilty party it was deemed that he was innocent to unwitting treason.

The coven decided that he ought to face the torture in the event the coven might learn something that would enable them to get the vengeance they decided they needed. As Dawn heard the covens decision she smiled in such a way that started to make Xander nervous.

Thrusting Xander face down onto the ground after she ripped the shirt from him Willow sat in the small of his back and began to run her fingernails on the skin of his back. Dawn was unsure if she had heard squeals of pain, misery or glee from Xander

not that it would have stopped Willow from the enjoyment of scratching pictures of Xander kissing Angel across his shoulders. “Count yourself as lucky that I am unable to tattoo this picture,” said Willow. Buffy sat just below his Xanders knees,

then after removing his socks then his shoes from his feet she sat on the calves just below his knees. Not being able to see what Buffy was doing Xander was terrified as to what she would do. Though he was pleasantly surprised when Buffy started to run her fingernails on him.

Gently she dragged her hails along his feet then Xander felt sheer terror at what followed! Buffy greeted Xander with a peel of maniacal laughter as she began to tickle the soles of his feet, at first Xander thought it a joke then realised that Buffy’s enjoyment would prove to be his torture.

Not long after all of Dawns questions could be answered both Willow and Buffy grew amazed at the explicit explanations! To Xanders horror the thoughts he had that his torture would stop were soon ended. Both Willow and Buffy were having too much fun at his expense.

Amy caused her face to appear in the hard soil beneath his face. He heard the words he hated, “From beneath you it devours!” Dawn heard Xanders thoughts of how he feared how to tell his worries to the other members of the debating team.

She stopped him by announcing what his fears were to Rose. Xander knew he had been discovered by Dawn, he was worried that each of the girls knew his thoughts and his mates would have their thoughts discovered as they thought it.

Suddenly noticing that none of them trusted him he ran to seek them. Many of the members of the debating team thought that as soon as they had realised that he had been tricked. Realising they could know what his thoughts were as soon as he’d had them.

The debating team hoped that they presented themselves although Dawn sought the aid of others of the coven to discover what else was in the area. “Has there been any reports of any other disturbances?”

Dawn heard Xander relate to his others of the team, he asked about the area one of them stated that a large water pipe and a well was being erected near there, that the area bore the name Hob’s Common. Rosalind asked Rose about the area.

Rose told both Rosalind and Dawn about the historical incidents that had been reported in the area, there had been a few mentions of creatures having been seen. Those creatures with four legs had been reported several hundred years before though no description were made of them.

Willow spoke to Dawn, the description of those creatures began to appear odd when reports were made about them walking upright, not horizontal as one would expect a creature with that many legs. Amy was worried by the reports, “What gets me is the name of the area, the reports of the creatures heard here. The name Hob, that was a name long used for the devil.”
