I figure I've got to do SOMETHING to get this place moving.
Anyhoo, I've only recently started putting a lot of effort back into my psionic training... and boy have I deteriorated.
I mean, I know all the theory... I remember all that. But man, simple things like forming a psiball should not have been that hard. Mrrr.
So, I guess my question is... where are y'all with your practice and skills?

For me, I've still been working on dreamwalking. I am so very close to doing it, and having a good verification. A few things I've learned you need to know how to do: 1) Have lucid dreams. 2) Know how to look for a person's signature. An interesting note: Ever had a dream where a dream character had a presence to them, and didn't feel like a normal character? That was probably another person/entity. 3) Have good dream control. The main thing I've been working on. Being able to feel someone nearby doesn't count for much if you can't even get to them. Having lots of people that are fine with you entering their dreams is also nice. Almost all of the time, at least one of those three things doesn't happen for me. There was one occasion where I did meet a friend, but she couldn't remember it. But when I told her about the dream, she said it was very symbolic for her. I'll be visiting my friends from across the country very soon. *grin*

Aww, you beat me to it. *pouts*
I started up my psionics track again last semester, but with all the late-night studies I was doing then, I didn't get to keep up with it nor could I keep anything I DID get. I'm quite ashamed of what I can do. I'm back virtually to square one. :<
Looking like I won't be able to do much of anything until summer, either. My new roommate(s --- plural because her boyfriend is basically a resident--not that I mind. They're polite.) are around a WHOLE lot more than my other one, who was a bit of a social butterfly. Not freaking them out with odd behavior...>.>;
That makes Tsu sad.

Actually, that's surprisingly common. Psionics and magick rely a lot on preconceptions, self-belief and self-confidence, as similar as they might be.

Well, knowing that while knowing we can still do things like this...why do they simply deteriorate anyway? (sometimes) Is it just like everything where you just get rusty without practice? ('cause I would liken it more to riding a bike...?)

Psionics and magick are like riding a bike, yes. They're also like any other skill you learn; confidence helps immensely - confidence in yourself, confidence in your ability and confidence in the truth. It also takes practice.
Take maths. If you believe you're stupid, you'll take nothing in. You'll pay no attention to teachers, and your belief will become true. But, if you're good at it but don't do math for a few years, suddenly you'll find it a fair bit harder to remember what you're meant to do next.
Case in point: In the middle of holidays, try and recall stuff you learned while at school.

I've actually done something that resulted in a similar need for learning. I changed my energy, and even my energy signature, through a ritual of death and rebirth. I find myself having to relearn and work at things I could do with grerat ease before, but it is as much about discovering or making a new pathway to achieve it as it is having forgotten how to do it or getting rusty. On the up side, my energy senses heve become more refined and are picking up more than I have been able to in over a decade!It is a great adventure!

I am currently not doing anything of importance at the moment. I have spent more time this past year trying to build physical energy and connection into this world through my body than my spirit, so my psychic abilities have drastically reduced through the moons.. I should start trying to compensate and balance both energies, but it gets hard when you are so busy with school. (*cough* and lazy..) Anyways... Still able to form a small ball of energy, but I always lacked control, so it's pretty much just a bundle of loose energy pouring out of my hand. >.< Able to walk into people's dream at a small degree, but they usually don't have significant memory, and it's vague or blurry at best. I'm still able to see energy, though. You kind of need to for training your body through fight practice. x3

Niccolo Salomanos <.< Ishtar, that is bordering on the posts that "don't tell us anything at all". Sooo... What do you mean, subverted? Care to elaborate? Well I've been having energy problems for years now. I haven't really been telling anyone but its finally gotten bad enough that I guess I have no choice. I've been feeling like I'm burning at times and getting strange pains especially in my left wrist where I normally draw in energy. Also along that arm. I mean the list of side affects goes on but I'm not sure if I can trust my senses. I haven't been able to properly practice in a while. I can still practice but its wishy washy. Half the time I can't even make a simple shield and this is going from being able to do alot to pretty much nothing. Its quite frustrating. I'm not sure if maybe its my subconscious or something else. Sometimes it just feels like when I actually try to do something I get a sort of whip lash maybe? Soo because I don't know I just have a whole bunch of theories and I can't actually practice to my normal extent so I can't tell whats wrong. Its wierd being on the other side of the fence so to speak. I'm soo used to giving advice... but then most people can't seem to answer any of my questions so *shrug*

The golden rule of things like these is to never rule out paranormal causes in favour of mundane ones or vice-versa.
But your problem... I've heard it before somewhere. Mrr. Where was it...? *muttermutter*
