Psychic Protection

Part 1: Psychic Protection
Part 2: Psychic Attacks

 

  

 

"If you really look hard at the evidence,
the most rational conclusion is to believe that the demonic is real."

Scott Derrickson

 

Psychic Protection

 

Much confusion surrounds the topic of psychic contamination and entity attachments. There are many ideas as to the essence and origin of these phenomena and the forces, emanating from beyond this plane of existence, that can enter and affect our lives. Theories abound regarding their nature; from them being discarnate beings and thought forms, to hooks and attachments, to psychic debris and imprints. While the opinions amongst those who study them are as varied as the phenomena discussed, there is agreement that there are disturbing and powerful forces, from outside the physical plane, that often invade our lives and permeate our environments. People want to believe that everything they think and feel is their own, coming from their own conscious or subconscious mind, but the evidence shows that these external forces can affect one’s thoughts, emotions and moods. 

 

What is an Entity?

For the purposes of this discussion, an entity is any psychic contaminant; anything perceived as outside of you that feeds off your energy or emotions. These emotions become the entities nourishment, their fuel source. It can be a thought form that has taken on a life of its own, environmental influences (the past remnants of severe emotional intensity), or external "dark entities" or "demonic  forces".

 Examples of "thought form" influences may include;

  • Programming: Childhood abuse and oppression caused by an authority figure may leave powerful negative imprints.  Relationships that have ended unpleasantly may leave negative "strings" attached.
  • Psychic attack by another person: Another person's anger, jealousy or other negativity toward you may be strong enough to constitute a psychic attack on you.

Examples of  "environmental" influences may include;

  • Places hold residual vibrations from past negative actions associated with them and battlefields and disaster sites can be strong sources of entity activity.
  • Objects also hold residual vibrations from past negative associations and one should be aware of this when dealing with antiques and antique stores. In the traditional Chinese metaphysical practice of Feng Shui the cleansing of objects and environments of spiritual debris is taken very seriously and after a day of "disinfecting" these items it is advisable to do a personal cleansing as well.
  • Earthbound spirits that survive after death of the physical body. Sometimes spirits just don't know what to do when their physical body dies, so they stay in the earth plane and can attach to living people, or remain in a specific place (thus a haunting spirit or ghost).

 

Negative Entities

These entities have never been alive in their own physical bodies, and are usually on a mission to incite negative and violent emotions. Commonly labeled as “Satan” or “Fallen Angels”, no one really knows where the dark energies come from. Some theories suggest that negative thought forms give dark forces the tools needed to create these beings. Other theories say is that they may be pan-dimensional beings that enter into this dimension through “doorways’ opened by negative emotions.

Demons rarely manifest themselves as they truly are. Their hatred, rage, and desire to feed upon chaos are hidden behind subtle and carefully chosen disguises, often manifesting in the guise of angelic beings. Rarely would anyone follow these creatures if they dared to show themselves.

Demons have an extensive knowledge of human nature and the psychology of man. Demons can size up an individual and determine a plan of destruction for an individual or group of individuals.  Demons have the wisdom of the ages at their disposal and can draw upon that vast knowledge. With their penchant to exploit human weaknesses and their desire to feed upon negative energy these dark entities and demonic forces should be treated with deadly seriousness.

  • The Jinn, also known as djinn or anglicized as genies, are supernatural creatures in early Arabian and later Islamic mythology and theology. They are mentioned frequently in the Quran and other Islamic texts and inhabit an unseen world, another universe beyond the known universe. The Quran says that the jinn are made of a smokeless and "scorching fire", but are also physical in nature, being able to interact in a tactile manner with people and objects and likewise be acted upon. The  Jinn are akin to demons in Christian tradition, but the jinn are not angels and the Quran draws a clear distinction between the two creations. Jinn are ususally invisble to humans, but humans are clearly visbible to the Jinn as they can possess humans.

 Dealing with Entity Attachments

 

Malachi Martin:
"Hostage To The Devil"

One theory holds that demonic entities initially haunt people to break down their wills and to create an atmosphere of dread and confusion. This weakens a person on a psychological and spiritual level. Hence, once a person becomes weak to this extent, it becomes easier for a demon to take possession of a person. Demonic possession differs from a demonic haunting in that a person’s spirit and body become possessed. The may fall under the mental, emotional, and physical control of demonic spirits. Demonic control may take place in any degree from mild to complete.

Demonologists teach that once demonic entities possess an individual, exorcism may be necessary, but that can often be a difficult and dangerous process. Therefore, an expert exorcist may have to conduct the purification. According to many accounts of exorcism, unseen evil forces or the possessed individual can frequently injure an exorcist. Typically, the exorcist prepares by undergoing a spiritual and physical cleanse to purify himself through fasting and praying beforehand. Otherwise, he himself may become spiritually weakened, and subsequently harmed or influenced, due to a demon’s great powers of manipulation.

Religious Exorcism

Religious exorcism is mainly thought of as the rite of driving out the Devil and his demons from possessed persons. Exorcism is mainly performed in incidences of demonic possession that is generally distinguished from spiritual possession. A general assumption is that the Roman Catholic singularly practices the rite of exorcism, but some Protestant denominations such as the Pentecostals and other charismatic groups practice it as well. These groups refer to the practice as "deliverance ministry" where gifted people drive out devils and heal while they touch the persons with their hands, ("laying on of hands") and pray over them.

The greatest danger to the exorcist is becoming possessed by the Devil or demon himself. This is the reason why the exorcist must feel as free of sin as possible and feel no secret need for punishment. Otherwise, the Devil or demon can easily entrap him. The former Jesuit priest and professor, Malachi Martin, stated in his book "Hostage to the Devil" that much of the success of the exorcism depends upon the exorcist. To Martin, the most important thing is the exorcist's disposition and those of his assistants. Very few experienced exorcists would ever choose to work alone.

The ritual of exorcism is more cautiously employed by the Catholic Church at present than it once was. When reviewing the conditions for demonic possession that were once listed one can easily see many of the symptoms are those of epilepsy, hysteria, schizophrenia, and other psychological disorders. So priests are cautioned to be as certain as possible the person is truly demonically possessed before performing the ritual.

 

Secular Exorcism

Spirit release or secular exorcism differs fundamentally from religious exorcism in that it attaches no blame to the patient, is less traumatic for the patient and moves the attached spirit to an appropriate place for the spirit identified, rather than expelling it from the patient only to wander and attach to someone else.

Spirit Release Therapy (SRT) involves identifying the spirit, the reason for attaching itself and detaching it. This form of spirit release is not new; it has been practiced by psychics and shamans all over the world throughout history. After removal further sessions of energy healing maybe required to the physical body, emotional state and aura to strengthen, balance, cleanse and protect. Also if the spirit has attached for a particular reason that reason may need addressing so that other such spirits do not attach for the same reason in the future.

Sadly, the most common source of negative entity attachment often comes from foolish and reckless behavior. You do not need to live a life of violence and debauchery. You can do just as much damage sitting on the couch and twiddling your thumbs. Or worse, you can sit back and watch while your children do it.

When you "play" aggressive and violent video games you are manifesting aggressive and violent thoughts in a mindless and undiscerning manner. You have no thought of controlling those emotions and are most likely trying to intensify them for the purpose of being able "to win the game”. In actuality, you are offering yourself up as a free meal of energies for dark entities to come and feed upon, by playing at a psychic game to which you do not know the rules, nor or the consequences of getting into the game.

In conclusion; there is no divine light, no sacred prayer, no sorcerer’s bane, no mystical shield, no magical talisman, no hallowed circle, no purifying incense and no holy water that is an impenetrable wall of psychic armor.

Protection only comes from a proper disposition, a clear mind, an informed perspective and an awareness of your own strengths and weaknesses and those of the infernal adversaries you may encounter.

"The ritual of exorcism is not practiced by an ordinary priest.
An exorcist requires specific training and must be thought to have
a personal sanctity.
He can be exposed to dangerous behavior and personal threat.
His prayers often cause a violent response as he attempts
to shine a beam of light into the darkness."
Gabriele Amorth

 

 

"Demons are like obedient dogs; they come when they are called."

Remy de Gourmont

 

Psychic Attacks

 

A psychic attack is the sending of negative energy with the conscious or unconscious intention to inflict mental or physical harm upon a person. These negative energies are typically projected in the form of thought from another individual, or from negative or demonic entities. Many different cultures and traditions, including Kabbalah, Chinese, and Indian, recognize these malicious spells and other spiritual attacks as a serious threat.

Negative energies, such as spirit attachments and energy vampires are far more prevelent than most people are aware. ( An energy vampire is a term used to describe a living person who "drains" others emotionally. They do this either empathically, by draining the prana or life force or metaphorically by taking emotionally without giving anything in return. These so-called "vampires" are not to be confused with the blood-sucking vampires of folklore.)

“Possession is not only when the devil plays hide and seek in your brain
 or poisons your medula oblongata with negativity,
but it is also when you are under the influence of the same species as you!”

Michael Bassey Johnson 

One theory holds that demonic entities initially haunt people to break down their wills and to create an atmosphere of fear and confusion. This weakens a person on physical, psychological and spiritual levels. Once a person becomes weakened to this extent, it becomes easier for a demon or other entity to take possession of that person. Demonic possession differs from a demonic haunting in that a person’s spirit and body become the object of the possession. This demonic control may manifest in many degrees from mild to complete (perfect possession).

Negative entities are bent on destroying the positive aspects of a person's life when the negative energies cross through "the veil between worlds" and progress from hauntings into personal attachment and spiritual possession. Some people are more susceptible to picking up these spirits than others and they become attached. It is possible that you can pick up these entities when you become emotionally distressed or are suffering from post traumatic syndrome disorder following a violent experience, accident, or other trauma, as this can alter your mind pattern and put you in a state where you are more likely to absorb these energies. Negative entities are usually not seen, nor physically felt or heard, until the entities have taken control.

Demonologists believe that once demonic entities possess an individual, exorcism may be necessary, but that can often be a difficult and dangerous process. Therefore, an exorcist may have to conduct a ritual purification by undergoing a spiritual and physical cleanse to purify themselves through fasting and praying beforehand. Otherwise, the exorcist may become spiritually weakened and subsequently harmed or influenced, due to a demon’s great powers of manipulation. According to many accounts of exorcism, unseen evil forces or the possessed individual can frequently injure an exorcist. It is therefore critical that people do not attempt exorcisms themselves and that they seek help from a trained and experienced spiritual practitioner.

(see: Psychic Protection)

The best way of dealing with negative entity attachments is...

 

... DO NOT GET ATTACHED TO BEGIN WITH!

 

Although spirit and demonic attachments happen to people through no fault of their own, many people actually “invite” these attachments through their ignorance, arrogance and stupidity.

Many people today suffer from negative spirit attachments because they simply do not know what they are doing or whom they are dealing with. They may be ignorant of the forces involved and not know how to deal with them when they are encountered. They may think they know and understand these forces and meet them with an arrogant attitude of believing they can easily deal with them and keep them at bay. Or, they may just draw them into their own energy fields by reckless behavior.

When you "play" with the occult and its "tools" you are opening doors to other realms that you do not know and the forces that reside within, offering yourself up as a free meal of energies for dark entities to come and feed upon. You are playing at games that you do not know the rules to, nor comprehend the consequences of getting into the game.

For example ...

 

Ouija Boards

 

 

"At the store, I noticed the recommended age to have a Ouija board was 8+.
So it's 21 to drink, 18 to smoke, 16 to drive, and 8 to summon demons.”

Jack Hopkins

 

There are those who wish to "experiment” with Spiritualism.  (The practice by which the spirits of departed mortals communicate with the living and the living can conversely communicate with the dead.) Demons rarely manifest themselves as they truly are and the untrained individual can literally open the door to these malevolent entities, masquerading as angelic beings, who wish to enter this realm in order to cause emotional turmoil which they will then feed upon. The Ouija board is a classic port of entry.

Ouija boards and séances have been used by thousands of people untrained in spirit communication.  Both forms of communication are dangerous because they are usually uncontrolled forms of communication.  Most often the spirits are those who reside on "the lower astral plane".  These spirits are often very confused and may have died a sudden violent death, often through murder or suicide and there may be violent, negative and potentially dangerous conditions present when using these methods.

 

"Ouija Boards have a huge problem. The problem is there is no way to
arrange for a specific spirit, like a specific deceased relative or
friend, to come and answer questions. No one knows why, but friendly
spirits don't seem to like Ouija Boards. Or they don't like the
company of negative spirits that are drawn to Ouija Boards. In fact,
the very last place you are likely to contact a deceased relative
or friend is through a Ouija Board.

Using a Ouija Board is like opening the front door and asking
everyone to come in. You have no idea who will actually walk in
the door. It could be neighborhood thieves, murderers, insane
people, etc... 

It is not that the Ouija Board is "evil" as some people believe,
it is that some spirits are simply not nice, well-meaning, or
mentally well balanced. Some unkind spirits find joy in frightening
humans. Others find joy in giving wrong or harmful information.

Thus, I must tell you that the use of the Ouija Board is simply
unreliable and surprisingly dangerous.

If you have a Ouija Board I strongly urge you to get rid it now!"

(Adrian Englinton)

 

Mirrors

 

Crossing the mirror, like a portal between two worlds,
Alice entered in the Wonderland.
The destruction of Narcissus was a water mirror.
The curious fascination caused by reflection in the mirror image
lures people since the remotest antiquity.
Lygia Cabus



Mirrors have had superstition and myths tied to them for as long as they have been in use. The ancient Romans believed that they reflected a person’s soul and could bring great strife if they were misused, and indeed many other cultures have various negative, supernatural qualities attached to mirrors, such as they can suck out one’s soul, be portents of death, or offer glimpses into some other dimension.
In many cultures mirrors are used for communication with spirits, and it is believed they serve as portals or doorways to the spirit world, that they are some barrier between the world of the living and that of the dead, through that veil that separates us. It is perhaps this widespread belief that has led to the phenomenon of haunted mirrors, so common around the world that there are various disparate cultures that follow the superstition of covering mirrors at certain times, in particular after a death, in order to prevent whatever is on the other side from peeking in or coming through, or even to stop a soul from becoming trapped within the mysterious mirror world. Mirrors are weird, and this is legends and lore.
Scrying, (Catoptromancy), also known by various names such as "seeing" or "peeping", is the practice of looking into a suitable medium, such as a mirror or pools of water, in the hope of detecting significant messages or visions. The objective might be personal guidance, prophecy, revelation, or inspiration, but down the ages, scrying in various forms also has been a prominent means of divination or fortune-telling.and it remains popular in occult circles.
Many people have reported images of beings reflected in the mirror  and believe these images to be spirits either trapped in the mirror or attempting to use the mirror as a portal, and since there are those who use such mediums in psychic attacks it would be prudent not to communicate with spirits using scrying as a portal.
In general it is not advisable to attempt to do any spell work with mirrors. Mirrors have way of hypnotizing those who look into them and this leaves them vulnerable to psychic attack from any entity that may be looking back. Also, most of the time people use mirror magic it is to perform a psychic attack where they are consciously deciding to send negative energy to someone.  Since you are dealing with a mirror and therefore a reflection, you would be invoking the basic “law of three” where what you send out will return to you three-fold and you would, in point of fact, be launching a psychic attack upon yourself.'

 

Energy Healing

 

There’s a reason why no one talks about the dark side of spiritual healing.
Number one, most people aren’t even aware that there’s a dark side.
And if they are aware then ...
Number two: they are uncomfortable to face or confront it.

gnostica.com/dark-side-of-spiritual-healing

 

Another problem area is in the field of “Energy Healing”. There are many practitioners of energy healing who are meticulously and systemaically trained, over many years, in scientifically as well as spiritually based energy healing modalities. Unfortunately, there are many more so called light workers who practice energy healing with little training and virtually no understanding of the energies and forces they are dealing with.
For example, many people who rush through Reiki training end up being a danger to themselves and others. If they are given any instruction at all in dealing with negative energies they are merely told to surround themselves in “white light” and that there is no possibility of any negative energy being able to enter and work against them. Since they are motivated by something other than a desire for deep spiritual understanding, they believe themselves to be invincible and end up creating an unbalanced state within themselves and sending that negative energy into their clients when they work with them.
