Like most tools in witchcraft, energetic constructs are tools used to channel, anchor, program, and/or manipulate energy. Constructs can range from simple forms such as spheres or platonic solids to complex forms like a replication of a house or object. The applications of energetic constructs are nearly limitless. Building a construct can be the focal point of a spell or a single component.
What is an energetic construct
Energetic constructs are projections of form in any dimension of space and/or time. The energies used in constructing them are programmed before, during, or after their creation. When a construct is made, its form can either act as conduit or node to the target, or represent the space a spell will occupy. It can be used to modify aspects of the target or space, or as a method of guiding a spell to its desired destination. Constructs can also be used to create wards, thoughtforms, and/or anchors for spells.
Foundations of energetic constructs
All constructs follow the Axioms of Energy Work. There are limitations to what they can and can’t affect. At their core, they are minute manipulations of quanta of information that acts as building blocks for our tangible reality. These manipulations can be programmed and modified to possess their own properties, or designed to influence the properties of the energies it interacts with. Their form can be as important as their programming. If one was to create a ward for their home, it would be more effective to create a perfect energetic replication of the house rather than a simple toroid projection. This can also be aided by symbols/sigils for protection and magically insulative materials such as salt or brick dust. These aids should be considered when a structure is being built, so that they do not interact in unforeseen ways.
Energetic Half-Life
Without anchoring a construct, it will slowly dissipate into the surrounding environment in order to restore equilibrium with the environment. A construct must be tethered to something that is conductive to thermal, electric, or combustion energy; this is to say, that thoroughly binding a construct to a conductive metal such as copper (through thermal or electric conductivity); a piezoelectric crystal such as quartz; or an organism such as a plant that produces energy via a redox reaction. The energy required to sustain a construct is so minute that a piezoelectric crystal is more than sufficient at powering it, even under normal atmospheric pressure.
Anchoring
When anchoring a construct it is important that conduits to it are properly distributed to points of most stress. This can be conceptualized as a hydrodynamic system, in which pressures interact in complex ways. The goal here is to have equal, or desired, distribution of energy throughout the form. By linking energetic conduits, like those within the subtle body, from the anchor to these points of highest stress, the energy produced or conducted to the construct can be distributed as needed.
Spatial Form
When creating a construct that occupies space, it is important to take what ambient energies exist in that space into consideration. If it overlays within physical objects, how will their ambient energies interact with the construct? How can their effects on the construct be mitigated? How can the energies be incorporated into the construct's purpose, if at all? It is rare for an object’s energy to be metastable or inert. While the properties of ambient energies may not affect the construct, they may interact with the anchor.
Temporal Form
When creating a construct that exists through a period of time, it is vitally important that the half-life of the energy is taken into account when choosing an anchor. If an anchor isn’t effective at containing or generating energy, the construct will need to be regularly charged. If the anchor doesn’t generate its own energy, you’ll need to consider how much energy is charged into it in order to sustain the construct for as long as you want it to. If a construct is designed to exist solely through time and not within space, visualization will very likely not be of any assistance. The anchor used to sustain it will need to be static and exist within the same relative frame of reference. This means that if an anchor is used to cast retroactive magic, a form of energetic projection,the anchor for the construct will have to had existed in the same relative location throughout the period of the spells focus in order to be most effective.
Correspondence
Constructs can be used as a correspondence, or node, for a working rather than the working itself so long as it contains the same energetic properties and frequencies as the object, person, location, or idea. However, if a construct is used as a taglock, it is very important to consider the principle of least effort. As the spell may satisfy its intention merely by attaching to the construct.
Projection
Visualization, or imagining, a construct will not give it form or existence. Visualization should merely be used as a mould or blueprint for the construct and nothing more. Projecting a construct can happen a few ways depending on ability and approach. Visualizing and then propagating the construct all at once is possible but can be difficult without practice. Gradually using your energetic body and senses to form each individual aspect of the design is a lot easier for some individuals. Visualization is not required for this process, because energetic senses can be used to feel the form, rather than creating a mental image. It can be helpful to draw a physical blueprint of the construct first. It is also possible to cause a mitosis-like action within your subtle body fields to project a construct. (Size allowing). The density, frequency, and precision are very important to consider when planning a construct as these qualities will have a large impact on the final product.
Multi-Dimensionality
Constructs can be made in more than one dimension of space. This is to mean any number of axises of space that are all separated by 90°. Again, doing this kind of projection can render visualization useless. The benefit of casting into higher spatial dimensions is the level of interaction with other spellwork. In higher dimensions of space, spells cast within two or three dimensions become very easy to avoid as they are like shadows.

Conceptualization Vs. Visualization
Spell Design
Why Grey?
Introduction
Regardless of the type of working, all spellwork follows the same basic principles. These principles, when thoroughly understood, can be used to increase the effectiveness of a spell. While knowing and applying this concept isn’t necessary, it can be greatly beneficial. Since it is the basic underlying property of spell design, all spellwork will utilize it regardless.
{Note: STEM concepts are not necessary for magical practices, but using them can be invaluable.}
Nodes
Commonly referred to as correspondences, nodes are bits of information that tie objects, people, spirits, concepts, places, thoughts, feelings, and emotions together in order to create a desired effect. Each node is connected, at least subconsciously, by further bits of information. It can be helpful to think of these connections as a web or a woven cloth. It is because of this that creating your own correspondences is completely valid and functional. Nodes can also be constructed solely of mindsets and concepts. This type of working allows for the means of casting without anyone noticing. Especially when combined with gesture magic and/or energy work.
Thresholds
Thresholds are the foundations of spell work. Whenever Nodes come into contact with one another, it always results in a threshold. It is essentially the doorway through which a spell is projected. When a spell is constructed and cast, the threshold opens and passion projects the spell through it. The more nodes that make up a threshold, the more specific the results will be. However, bogging yourself down with a plethora of nodes could hinder your headspace. There is a balance between simplicity and complexity that is the most efficient. Finding this balance is something that is best understood through experience.
Statistical Dimensions
Whenever a new set of potential variables is added to a sample, the multitude of possible results expands exponentially. When casting spells, the more variables involved in the casting and goal lower the probability of it succeeding. I typically refer to this concept as the path of least resistance. Statistical dimensions can be controlled by creating networks and connections between each component of a working. They can also be controlled by choosing a goal that can happen within circumstances that have the least amount of variables. It is so important to try to avoid higher dimensional situations, which means that the number of dimensions are staggeringly high — so high that calculations, estimations, deductions, and inductions become extremely difficult. With high dimensional data, the number of features can exceed the number of observations. For each spell circumstances should be carefully considered. There will always be unknown variables like environmental happenings, intersocial happenings, seemingly random events, etc. It is best to try to minimize the number of possible unknowns when constructing a spell. One can use statistics and neural network structures to prepare for unknown variables. Actual math isn’t necessarily required to do this. A solid conceptualization can also work. One way would be through adaptive control, which is “the control method used by a controller which must adapt to a controlled system with parameters which vary, or are initially uncertain.”** Another method is estimation theory, which is “a branch of statistics that deals with estimating the values of parameters based on measured empirical data that has a random component. The parameters describe an underlying physical setting in such a way that their value affects the distribution of the measured data. An estimator attempts to approximate the unknown parameters using the measurements. In estimation theory, two approaches are generally considered:
The probabilistic approach assumes that the measured data is random with probability distribution dependent on the parameters of interest
The set-membership approach assumes that the measured data vector belongs to a set which depends on the parameter vector.”***
Sympathetic Magic
Whenever objects, herbs, tools, colors, etc. are used in a spell, the spell is considered a sympathetic spell. The nodes are constructed from associations rather than direct connections. Sympathetic spells have higher statistical dimensions because circumstances cannot be directly observed, and thus one has to account for much more unknown variables. Oftentimes sympathetic magic can be incorporated into direct magic, or non-sympathetic magic, in order to develop a more thorough threshold. Pure sympathetic magic requires a taglock and an anchor for a working. Whether it be hair, photo, candle, or crystal, the spell will have to be bound to associated items. Sympathetic magics are best used for protective or warding spells, while direct magic is best for curses, cleansing, grounding, or cursing.
Non-Sympathetic Magic
Anytime a spell is cast directly onto a target that is within line of site or within one’s energetic awareness, the circumstances in which the spell must maneuver are, for the most part, observable. Non-sympathetic magic is easiest to do via energy work or gesture magic, as they are less conspicuous. Binding spells directly to a person’s subtle body allows for the manifestation of the working to be evoked from the inside outwards, rather than the outside inwards. Working directly with that target allows for substantially more control over the spell and its outcome. Direct magic can be used to ward as well if you are in the space and working with it directly. The more familiar with the space/target you are, the more effective direct magic will be.
Sustaining Thresholds
Thresholds are only as lasting as the caster’s headspace and focus. As a practitioner loses focus, the threshold will start to break down. While a threshold is typically sustained by the practitioner throughout a working, they can also be crystalized and anchored to an object that can sustain them. However, the medium that is used to anchor it will affect how long it can be sustained. To read further on mediums for anchoring, check out my article on anchors linked above.
While a threshold is anchored it is best to hold the object while casting, entering into the proper headspace. If the practitioner has a solid grasp on energy work and the energetic senses, then they need not interact directly with the anchor to use the threshold.
Self-Modifying Thresholds
When creating a complicated threshold that accounts for a large number of circumstantial variations, it may be best to actually create a thoughtform that embodies the spell. This thoughtform must contain as many logical processes as possible so that it has the tools to adapt as the situation changes. Thoughtforms do require being physically anchored in order to be sustained, and their binding should allow for them to stray from the anchor as needed. When creating a thoughtform-bound spell, it is important to have a way to banish it on standby.

Advanced conceptualization of energy
When dealing with aggregate layers of energetic composites, information can become very dense and complex. This is why visualization isn’t effective at all in this stage. That, and the amount of information that is required to have an awareness of cannot be captured by visualization. Other than energetic awareness, it is crucial to have a thorough understanding of a few concepts. Firstly, energetic composites can be measured similar to spectrographs. Each independent frequency is identifiable. These frequencies, when studied individually and in amalgam, can be connected to each composite’s energetic properties.
Pitfalls for practicing advanced energy work
Due to the complexity of the nature of complex energy work, the mind can reach points where information is difficult to keep track of. These gaps can easily be filled with indirect data, which could heavily influence the objectivity of the working. This is why practice, notes and regular comparisons to workings are crucial.
Advanced concepts of the subtle body
The subtle body is a collection of super dense, stable, tethered energetic nodes. Each point is Conductive, Adiabatic, Enthalpic, and Refractive. These nodes modify and are modified by all the energy that cycle through the whole system. If not directly, then transitively. Not all conduits, or tethers, exist within the same spatial dimension. This becomes increasingly important to understand as a practitioner begins using the more interconnected hyper-dimensional nodes for energy work. That being said, the upper dimensional points are significantly difficult to find due to their dimensional phase. However, their location can be explored by paying close attention to minor fluctuations of the modulations and fluctuations of the system’s energetic states via the transference between each individual node.
Properties of energy
Energy is most commonly referred to as having properties within very human perspectives and concepts. Things like “prosperity” or “protection”, these are intentions that can be programmed into energy and not inherent properties to any existing energies. The only exceptions to this would be energies that are derived from divine or spiritual sources. Physical objects have energies without any native intentions. Slight intentions can be left in objects via interactions with people. These properties are purely how energetic composites interact.
Infinite: Regardless of the amount of energy absorbed or released the sum amount of energy does not change within a composite.
Insulative: Resists the transference of isolated frequencies.
Conductive: Low resistance to frequency transference.
Inductive: Attracts further energetic frequencies into the composite.
Thermal: Has frequencies that equalize into the environment without losing potency or affect within the composite.
Direct Current: Multiple frequencies in a composite transmits to another relative location, creating identical propagations.
Alternating Current: Frequencies within two composites alternate information bi-directionally in an oscillatory fashion.
Entangled: Discrete connections between two composites irrelevant of their relative positions in space or time.
Tethered: A direct circuit between two or more stable composites.
Spin: The degree of self-reference between two overlapping frequencies.
Inert: A composite that does not interact with other composites in the surrounding environment.
Charge: The volume of frequencies within a composite.
Attractive: Compounds the volume of surrounding self-similar frequencies within a distance relative to initial density.
Repulsive: Repels individual self-similar frequencies, lessening its overall volume.
Unstable/reactive: Compounds with chaotic or discordant composites easily.
Metastable: Regardless of interactions, the properties and substituent frequencies within the composite do not change.
Bistable: Composites that oscillate between two distinct states that are triggered by interactions with other composites.
Adiabatic: Properties change without a gain or loss of volume or density.
Isentropic: Adiabatic, but the composite returns to its initial properties.
Cyclical: Frequencies within the composite fluctuate between several different states in a cyclical manner.
Enthalpic: Becomes Thermal when under pressure from near or connected composites.
Negentropic: The composite always returns to its initial state in terms of frequencies and properties without any observable influence.:
Refractive: When it interacts with other composites, it splits the composite into two different composites or frequencies.
Applications of Advanced Energy Work in Psychicism
All energy is information. All psychic abilities involve obtaining or manipulating information. Of course, this only applies to real psychic abilities, which omits: telekinesis, pyrokinesis, and other psychic abilities of fantasy and science fiction.
By using combinations of energetic awareness and understanding energetic properties, it is possible to use energy work to boost psychic abilities.
Telepathy: All thoughts release energy through the brain's magnetic field. These wave consist of alpha, beta, and gamma radiation- in trace amounts, of course. These waves, like all things, are composed of complex compounds of energetic composites. While the types of radiation tell us the type of frequency that thoughts predominantly exist within, it doesn’t quite tell us the contents of the thoughts. Each wave release is composed of unique quanta on energies that fall within those three classifications. By tapping into Kimeya & Taoyita senses, it is fairly easy to start translating these fluctuations in radiation.
Clairvoyance: Amplifying clairvoyance relies entirely on Taoyita, the fractal energetic sense and astral projection. To give a boost to clairvoyance, zoom out as far as possible, then transfer into a projection. Use that projection to manipulate the scope of your fields, which is a lot simpler in the pure energetic body. Anything within that scope becomes knowable. Observable. All that is left to do is to hone in on the proper composites.
Claircognizance: Unlike other psychic abilities, boosting this one is an entirely internal process. Rather than manipulating the range of perception, it's a matter of tuning your own connection points to the same frequencies as the information that is sought after, by matching the frequencies of said information.
Controlling multiple energetic constructs
Starting with a sphere, the simplest construct to maintain, divide the construct into two independent structures. Do this without altering the form, density, or size. Think of it as the sphere going through mitosis. Move the spheres so that they are orbiting your body in different orbital paths and velocities. Once this can be accomplished, divide each sphere in two. Repeat this process to the highest quantity that can be managed. When a minimum of 32 constructs can be comfortably maintained, move onto more complex constructs. Start with simpler forms, like the platonic solids. The next step is to have each object transform into a different shape as it is born. You know you’ve mastered this skill once in control of 64 individual forms with variety in form, density, and size comfortably.
Sustaining immense energetic constructs
Once you’ve gotten this far in your practice, it becomes very possible to create constructs that are miles in diameter. Maybe even hundreds of miles. However, once you get this large, visualization stops being effective, even as a mould.This is because of the relative frame of reference. It is difficult for the human mind to accurately depict and maintain the amount of information required, even for someone with hyperphantasia. For this, you'll rely solely on energetic senses. Making constructs this large will require all of the senses. In order to maintain them during construction, they’ll need to be fed energy and maintained in concentration the entire time before it is anchored. To do this, create several conduits to the wellsource to points on the construct that are connected to the highest number of variables and create a circuit within the construct.
Advanced Energetic Diffusion
Energy naturally has a short half-life, however if an energy is anchored but the anchor isn’t known or located it is still possible to diffuse the construct, thoughtform, or spirit. Like the metaphor above for manipulating properties, imagine the construct as a woven fabric. In all fabrics there are some threads that hold it together the most. It is possible to remove the property that is the equivalent of the hem of a fabric and allow the construct to dissipate over time; or, several threads can be removed until the fabric isn't a fabric anymore. Doing this to a construct causes the energetic composites involved to equalize into the environment. The more it unravels, the faster it dissipates. This also works on thoughtforms or spirits as well. Both of these are composed of energetic constructs and therefore can be unraveled.
In the next post, Advanced Energy Work Part II, I'll be discussing multi-dimensional energy work, and covering topics required for advanced warding.
