Energy Reading: What It Means When a Reader Reads Your Energy, the 4 Kinds of Energy Reading, a Decoder for 'His Energy Toward You', and 5 Empaths to Book

The short answer: in an energy reading, a reader (usually an empath or clairsentient) tunes into the emotional and spiritual energy around you, a situation or another person and describes what they feel: warmth or distance, flow or blockage, attachment or confusion. It works remotely, by chat or phone, usually from your first name and the other person’s. The most-booked kind by far is the connection reading: what is his (or her) energy toward me right now? Below are the four kinds of energy reading, a decoder for the words readers use, and five empaths from our audits who read energy first and tools second, with first readings from about $8.

The 4 Kinds of Energy Reading

Kind	What the reader tunes into	Best for questions like
Connection (person) energy reading	The energy between you and someone else, and their energy toward you	”What’s his energy toward me?” “Is she still attached?” “Why did he pull back?”
Aura reading	The energy field around you, often described in colours	”What’s my energy like right now?” “Why do people react to me this way?”
Chakra reading	Your seven energy centres: which are open, which are blocked	”Why do I feel stuck in love, at work, in speaking up?”
Spirit energy reading	Presences around you: spirit guides, angels, loved ones who have passed	”Who is around me?” “Is that feeling a sign?”

Most readers move between them in one session. A connection reading often finishes with a quick look at your energy, and what you can shift on your side. For auras in depth (colours, layers and how to start seeing them), see our aura reading guide; for spirit guides, spirit guides explained.

”His Energy Toward You”: a Decoder for What Readers Say

Energy readers describe feelings in their own vocabulary. Here’s what the common phrases usually mean, and the best follow-up question to ask in the same session:

The reader says…	What it usually means	Ask next
”His energy is still connected to you”	He thinks about you; the bond hasn’t been cut on his side	”Is he likely to act on it, and roughly when?"
"Hot and cold energy”	Strong interest, then pulling back: often fear of how much he feels	”What’s he afraid of, and what helps him feel safe?"
"He’s in his head”	Overthinking: feelings are there, but he’s analysing instead of acting	”What is he weighing up?"
"His energy is blocked”	Something outside the connection is in the way: stress, a past hurt, timing	”Is the block about me, or about his own situation?"
"He’s pulled his energy back”	A withdrawal for now, often to protect himself after a conflict	”Is this a pause or a goodbye?"
"Confused but attached”	He doesn’t know what he wants, but doesn’t want to lose you	”What would bring him clarity?"
"Karmic energy”	An intense connection with lessons in it, often a repeating pattern	”What’s the lesson, and is it complete?” (see karmic relationships)
“Your energies are aligned”	Mutual feelings and good timing	”What’s the next step for us?"
"Divine masculine / feminine energy”	Spiritual language for balance in the connection, common in twin flame readings	”What’s out of balance, and how do we restore it?"
"I’m picking up another energy”	Another person may be involved, past or present	”Is this someone from his past, or a current connection?”

Two tips that make connection readings much sharper: give the reader both first names (and birthdates if you know them), and ask about one person at a time. If what you want to know is what he’s thinking rather than feeling, see what is he thinking? readings; for feelings specifically, signs he loves you secretly.

The Seven Chakras and the Questions They Answer

In a chakra reading the reader looks at which energy centres feel open and which feel blocked. Each one lines up with a part of life, which makes it a useful way to understand why one area feels stuck:

Chakra	Where	Linked with	A block can feel like
Root	Base of the spine	Safety, money, home	Anxiety about security; can’t settle
Sacral	Lower belly	Pleasure, creativity, intimacy	Feeling flat; low desire or inspiration
Solar plexus	Upper belly	Confidence, willpower, career	Self-doubt; giving your power away
Heart	Centre of the chest	Love, compassion, forgiveness	Guarded after a hurt; hard to let love in
Throat	Throat	Communication, truth	Can’t say what you mean; conversations stall
Third eye	Between the brows	Intuition, insight	Second-guessing your gut
Crown	Top of the head	Spiritual connection, purpose	Feeling disconnected or without direction

A heart-chakra reading is a natural partner to a connection reading: what’s happening in his energy, and what’s happening in yours.

How an Energy Reading Works by Chat or Phone

People are often surprised that energy readings work remotely. Energy readers say distance doesn’t matter: they tune in through your name, your words or your voice, and many describe it as a feeling in their own body, such as warmth, heaviness, tightness or lightness, that they then translate.

A typical 15-minute session:

• Minutes 1–3: you give your first name, the other person’s first name (for a connection reading) and your question. Some empaths prefer to start before you explain anything.
• Minutes 3–10: the reader describes the energy they pick up and checks it with you.
• Minutes 10–15: what it means and what you can do, often a practical step and an energetic one (for example, “stop checking his social media for a week; your energy is pulling on his”).

Chat or phone? Chat gives you a transcript of every word. Phone lets an empath hear your voice, which many say helps them read you more deeply. On Purple Garden, Psychic Kayla’s voice rate is half her chat rate, so calling is both richer and cheaper.

A 60-second grounding routine before you start

1. Sit with both feet flat on the floor.
2. Take three slow breaths, longer out than in.
3. Picture roots growing from your feet into the ground.
4. Say your question once, silently.

It sounds simple, but empaths often say a calm client is far easier to read. For more ways to get ready, see how to prepare for a psychic reading; and if you often feel other people’s energy yourself, read am I an empath?

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an energy reading?

A reading in which an empath or clairsentient reader tunes into the emotional and spiritual energy around you, a situation or another person, and describes what they feel, such as warmth or distance, flow or blockage. It can focus on your aura, your chakras, your connection with someone, or spirit presences around you.

Can a psychic read someone’s energy toward me?

That’s the most-booked kind of energy reading. Give the reader both first names (and birthdates if you know them) and ask one clear question, such as “What is his energy toward me right now?” Readers describe whether the connection is still active, warm, blocked or pulled back, and why.

What does it mean when a psychic says his energy is blocked?

Usually that something outside the connection is in the way, such as stress, a past hurt or bad timing, rather than a lack of feeling. A good follow-up is “Is the block about me, or about his own situation?”

Do energy readings work over the phone or chat?

Yes. Energy readers say distance doesn’t matter: they tune in through your name, your words or your voice. Phone lets an empath hear your voice; chat gives you a transcript to re-read.

What is a spirit energy reading?

A reading focused on presences around you, such as spirit guides, angels or loved ones who have passed, and the signs they may be sending. For contact with a specific loved one, a medium is the specialist.

How much does an energy reading cost?

Online, energy readings are billed by the minute. With the welcome offers, a 15-minute first reading with the empaths on this page costs from $7.35 (Psychic Kayla by phone on Purple Garden) to $89.85 (Enlighten Matt on Purple Garden).
