 * Force Absorb **

__How to perform the Force skill__: Much like the force skills 'Force Tow' and 'Force Body Control', you will learn to absorb energy into your body and diffuse it. This ability is not used for regenerating your force energy but simply as a defense against your accidents and possibly your enemies.

Yoda can be seen in episodes II and III absorbing force lightning and in Episode II reflecting it back.


 * Absorbing the energy**


 * Channeling it back using a circut (or diffusing it)**


 * Returning the energy to it's origin**

Mace windu can be seen using his lightsaber in episode III to absorb and reflect the lightning from Darth sidious back at him creating a circut.

Now when you absorb energy, you should be extremely careful. If you absorb hostile energy and loose control it can be worse than just letting it hit you. Even regular energy that is not particularly clean can make you sick and imbalance you.

The trick is to catch it in your hands converting it into raw energy and let it flow through your body and into the ground without damaging yourself and without letting any remain in your system. Remember that before you can create a circut you should be able to channel it into the ground well.

Practice is the best way to do this. You can practice this with force energy balls, but you will need to use very strong balls of energy because some power is lost once thrown and it will be hard to tell if you absorbed it well unless there is a sizable amount.
