How to create Energy Flow Effect onto any object || Blender Tutorial

In this tutorial, you'' learn how to create an energy flow/aura effect onto any object in Blender. A pretty simple node set up that you can use to add to your object's material. This trick can be used for text effects (intros maybe), a sword with energy flow, planet effects, etc.

Basically, we're using a Blender internal texture as the energy flow, but eliminating the dark colors, and using the bright color(s) as the color and aura of the energy flow.
