Spiritual Energy is a vital force that animates living things and permeates the universe. It’s a concept that intersects with religious, medical and mystical frameworks, influencing practices ranging from healing to spiritual enlightenment.
Space can also hold energy. Sacred sites like temples or ancient ruins may feel charged with centuries of devotion. And natural spaces like mountains inspire strength, forests bring calm, and oceans restore balance.
1. It Awakens You
Spiritual energy awakens you to a new reality. You may notice that life becomes more vivid and your dreams become more meaningful. You might also start seeing more signs and synchronicities in your daily life. For instance, you might think of someone and then randomly run into them later on or experience a sense of deja vu.
You may also feel more sympathy and empathy for others’ misfortune. This is because your spiritual awakening brings you closer to your intuition, which is a powerful source of knowledge.
You can nurture your spiritual awakening by putting actions behind your beliefs. For example, if your awakening involves becoming more compassionate and less selfish, you can practice this by volunteering at a soup kitchen or donating to charity.
2. It Lets You Become One With The World
Just like gravity, spiritual energy is an invisible force that affects everything around us. This life force, known as qi or prana in some traditions, is believed to animate living things and permeate the universe. It’s a core concept of holistic health, and spiritual healing practices address blockages or imbalances in this vital force.
There are many types of spiritual energy, from karmic to kundalini to loving to divine. But the energy you channel comes from your own choices and decisions. Even your environment has its own spiritual energy: sacred sites and ancient ruins feel charged with devotion, while mountains inspire strength and oceans restore balance. Objects also carry energy: personal items that have been used with intention can hold the energy of their use, while crystals amplify specific vibrations.
3. It Gives You Superpowers
Spiritual energy (also known as prana, ki, pneuma or mana) is the unseen life force that animates living beings and permeates the cosmos. It’s a concept that crosses over religious, scientific and mystical frameworks, influencing practices ranging from healing to spiritual enlightenment.
When you channel your spiritual energy, you become more powerful and can manifest anything in your life. Having this level of power makes it easy for people to open up to you and trust your guidance.
Objects also carry spiritual energy, as they can hold the vibration of past events or intentions. For instance, crystals often retain the energies of repeated meditation or ritual. Personal items given with love, or relics and artifacts that have been venerated for centuries, also have a distinct energy.
4. It Helps You Manifest Your Dreams
The more your energy aligns with positivity, inspiration and great contribution, the easier it is to manifest your dreams. Manifesting is the practice of setting intentions and believing with conviction that what you want is already yours.
Spiritual energy refers to the unseen life force that animates living things and permeates the cosmos. Many spiritual traditions call this energy prana, chi or divine light.
It can also be found in sacred spaces like temples, ruins or ancient forests as well as nature itself. Mountains inspire strength, rivers soothe and oceans bring balance. There are a few ways to cultivate your spiritual energy including journaling, vision board creation and using the whisper method (aka @hothighpriestess on TiktTok). Manifesting during the full moon or new moon is particularly powerful as the energies of these times welcome clarity and focus.
5. It Cleanses Your Energy
Spiritual energy cleansing practices are a key component of spiritual rejuvenation and emotional healing. Whether it’s through meditation, smudging or sound healing, these rituals can help you clear away negativity and restore balance to your aura.
Physical cleansing is also a popular energy cleanse practice. For example, sweeping or decluttering your home or office can be done with intention to remove negative energy and encourage renewal.
Using crystals and stones that have specific energetic properties is another common way to cleanse your aura. For example, white sage is known for its cleansing abilities and can be used to purify your environment and aura through “smudging” rituals. Similarly, tibetan singing bowls and tuning forks are said to emit calming vibrations that cleanse the aura through sound.
