So far, I haven't had any results along what I want since it's been less than a week since I've started the rituals, but I have sometimes found the energy to be strangely... energizing. :p Well, hear me out. This is coming from someone who hasn't slept much in a few days now. I've only discovered this a few days ago and it has been going on for two days now but after doing the ritual (along with the CPR, the Bornless ritual, and the DEE-HAY-THOOTH evocation), I have found it impossible to fall asleep.
My body just feels like it just woke up from some kind of deep sleep and I just lie there in bed all night trying to sleep! Maybe I will just start doing this in the morning, it'll help me with waking up for classes!
On the other hand, I remember reading a post about someone dreaming of a little girl and a man after the Excite Love invocations.. funny thing, the night before reading that post, I had a dream of a little girl and a man talking to me about my wishes. After I read that post, I was fairly surprised.
That said, I'm definitely looking forward to further results!
Welcome!
Interesting stuff here.
Usually for me, immediately after a chant I will be almost hyper-aware ... my body will tremble, I will have chills (which is strange, usually DURING my chant I become super hot...) But shortly after I ground myself, I sleep very soundly.
When I first began NAP, it WOULD keep me awake. I blame this on two things:
1 - Not doing proper banishing/grounding - the LBRP has stopped this
2 - Becoming "used" to experiencing currents
I know ppl say the LBRP is not needed with NAP. I have to disagree, at least for me - it was instrumental. Apparently I had accumulated some things astrally, because basic NAP or meditation would make me feel uneasy sometimes. When I first performed the LBRP, I actually "sensed" resistance, as if something around me didn't want me doing it. Afterwards I felt clean, relaxed and centered.
I suppose I'm rambling now, more about the sleep issue as I have sleep problems myself. Something like the LBRP seems to have balanced the elements in my own self to help with both magic and rest.
Keep on chugging at it. Some people don't get results right off the bat, it takes a while to get your technique down. But gaining energy from it, is very promising. Keep it up!
