Lights Glow Brighter

Yesterday, I was at my friend's house with my sister and my cousin. We were playing with gloves (the ones with the lights on all the fingertips). As I'm giving them a light show, they all say, whoa! You just made the lights glow brighter! I said no way, that's impossible. They said do it again, and I closed my eyes and it just happened. Next, I wanted to see if I could do it on command so I closed my eyes and imagined energy flowing out of my fingertips into the lights and they glowed at least twice as bright every time I did it. I just recently got into all this spiritual and psychic stuff as I found out I am an empath about 2 weeks ago. No matter what color the lights were, you could see a kind of blueish electric light around each light as they were getting brighter. Then, my sister tried to do the same thing and it worked for her as well. Me and my sister are extremely close, and she is an empath as well, so I wasn't surprised that she could do it. But I have never done this before that I have noticed, and I don't know how it's even possible. Can someone help me out? Does anyone know what this is or have ever heard of people doing it? I searched online and have found nothing so far. But now that this is out, I have also telepathically communicated with people before, via pictures, and have seen what I believed to have been people's souls. I really don't know much about any of this stuff and I really need some explanations. If anybody could help me figure some of this out, I would be very grateful.
