White Lighting and it's use in Healing

Among many pagan groups, the words "White Lighting" are somewhat of a put-down. The term is often equated with fluffy bunny new-ager, rainbows and lollipop folk who see the world through rose-colored glasses.

Believe me, I've been accused of seeing the world thusly on many occasions. And, I don't have a problem with that either...I do see the shadows dancing among the sunbeams, I know the balance of light and dark serves a purpose. But that doesn't stop me from being a healer, and trying to rid someone of their disease.

White Lighting, in the healing sense of the words, is the practice of enveloping a person in pure, white energy, with the hope of eliminating the dark, negative energy causing the illness. This can be done in several ways.

One popular way is infusing the person's aura with the energy, in effect replacing the natural color with white. I have used this method and while it is effective, it takes an extreme amount of concentration, and often leaves both the person and myself exhausted. I have since felt this method is not to be used lightly, as it drains the person's natural energies. Your aura is there for a reason, and is a reflection and gathering point for your energies. Making small repairs with Auric surgeries is one thing - replacing an entire energy field is another.

Another method, and one which I much prefer, is adding a layer to the aura. Just past the outer layer, and starting at the crown - pull a "sheet" of white light over the person - using your hands or visualization skills. Have the person visualize also, as this adds to the method. Leave this outer layer intact for as long as the person feels comfortable maintaining it. It should continue to work as long as it is needed.

Chakra infusions also work well - and here is where I have had my success. Once the healer has determined the problem or illness, or if the person already knows and can relate the information, determine which chakra governs the area. Briefly stop the spinning, and start it up, spinning counter-clockwise for a moment or two. This should clear any minor blockages, and following this, stop the chakra again, infusing it with white light energy. As you do this, start it spinning in it's normal clockwise motion - you will feel it when there is enough chakra in the chakra.
