New Worlds of Body, Mind & Spirit Since 1901
I love polarity energy! I love the feel of it bouncing back and forth between two or more people. I even love solitary polarity workings, although I do a lot less of that. Polarity work is controversial these days. Many of us, of many different occult and Pagan paths, were taught that polarity is absolutely essential to magical work.
