Empowering a Lajava Ona involves various methods, each channeling kna (power) to enhance its efficacy. These methods range from focused spiritual practices to more personal, everyday actions:

• Directly infusing the Lajava with kna.
• Focusing on or meditating intensely on the Lajava.
• Dancing or exercising around the Lajava.
• Chanting over the Lajava, aligning chants with its intended purpose.
• Burning candles near or on the Lajava.
• Anointing the Lajava with oils or waters.
• Placing the Lajava in sunlight or moonlight.
• Positioning it near a crystal or placing a crystal atop the Lajava.
• Submerging the Lajava in water.
• Speaking to the Lajava as if conversing with a person.
• Carrying the Lajava throughout the day for constant energy feeding.
• Keeping the Lajava close during adrenaline-inducing activities or while playing video games.
• Focusing on the Lajava during intense emotional states.
• Asking a higher power for empowerment or praying over the Lajava.
• Placing the Lajava near music speakers or in the path of wind or fan air.
• Exposing the Lajava to natural elements like storms or rain.
• Charging the Lajava by placing it under a pillow during sleep or under a charging phone.
• Ritualistic Practices:
• Using bells near the Lajava.
• Linking other Lajava Ona to the primary Lajava for shared empowerment.
• Sprinkling herbs and spices on the Lajava.
• Discussing the Lajava with others or publicly acknowledging its existence.
• Placing the Lajava in locations with significant kna (positive or negative) or at knala.
• Physically warming or cooling the Lajava.
• Keeping the Lajava in personal, intimate spaces like underwear.
• Masturbating on to the Lajava to anoint the Lajava with semen, or vaginal mucus, or masturbating while looking into the Lajava.
• Having sex around the Lajava, on top of the Lajava, or while looking at the Lajava.
• Giving birth over, or near the Lajava.
• Position your item so it’s bathed in moonlight. For enhanced empowerment, leave it overnight to soak in the lunar energy.
• Place the item on fresh soil or ground. By pressing your hands into the earth around it, feel the Earth’s power enhancing the item while it also draws away any excess energies.
• Place your hands over or against the item, drawing kna from the ground, air, or your chosen power source, then directing it into the item, infusing it with your personal energy.
• Light a candle with specific intent near or on the item. The energy of the candle, as it burns, is transferred to the item. It is customary to let the candle burn out completely.
• This method is suitable for items designed to be consumed, such as a paper Lajava. Non-flammable items can also be briefly exposed to fire (like a candle’s flame) for empowerment. The brief contact with fire imparts energy to the item.
