Has anyone considered that much like anything else energy doesn't like being doubted and tends to lash back when it is, it's one of the reasons most "beginner" techniques are largely for building confidence in addition to teaching how to draw on and form the energy. darkness and light, good and evil... one is not better than the other one simply must exist so the other can.

And as far as fixing the current problem, your hands are most likely glowing due to an excess of energy which was built up but not used, there are two possible reasons for this, fear of the results of releasing the energy and purposefully or inately storing energy within one's body. Both of these can be fixed by returning the natural balance to your body, that may not be 50/50 between light and dark but if you allow it it will return naturally. There are demons that can help with this, or if you choose not to contract with demons you can probably find a method online.

Though all things considered, you're best method in my opinion would be to believe that it will work and you control your energy. Doubt is your worst enemy, with that in mind try again so long as you believe (beyond any shadow of a doubt) that you can do it.

Hope this helped
