What is energy mapping? Simply put, it's using energy to find people or creatures within a specific niche.

How do you do it? For beginners, grab a blank map of your state, visualise it energetically, then send out energy as like a radar, searching for pings of others with similar energy - ie, nonhumans in general, but you could even make it as specific as "ice dragon shifters with red hair" or "wolf shifters whos name is jacob". It could also be as broad as "awakened nonhumans" or "people with blue eyes".

As you become more skilled with it, you can scan larger and larger areas, although even with practice I've noticed it's still limited, approximations of location become distored the further you go from yourself and your surroundings.

The best thing to start with would be something broad as it will yield the best results.

Energy mapping however will NOT capture people using a block or mask to prevent them from appearing.

Now, why would you wanna use this? Well, many reasons, but the biggest being learning. Many nonhumans are spiritually aware and capable, and can and will reply to telepathy or energy sent their way - once you find their energy with mapping, you can easily latch on to it and communicate with them. With this connection, you could easily learn from them.
