Psychic Self-Defense
In this world today there are many physical and non-physical energies that are searching
for an energy source to attach to for nourishment, and if we don't protect
ourselves, we could unknowingly pick up entities and energies that get sucked into our
auras and drain us, making us feel tired, unmotivated, depressed and exhausted. If
the aura is weak or not protected, it's easier for these energies to lock into us, and
possibly cause negative influences in our lives.
There are many different methods of protection, and many ways to install them. For example, asking God/Source/Spirit, Angels, or guides to be present with you, and protect you from any seen or unseen forces. Some people call it prayer, but you can refer to it any way you deem fit.
As an example, many people call on Archangel Michael to protect them in times of fear, anxiety or danger. But, if you don't ask for help, in accordance with the law of free will, the spiritual realm is limited to what they can do. And yes, there is such a thing as divine intervention, but asking for help is much more efficient and securing.
If you don't feel comfortable asking God, Angels or guides directly for help, you can say a mantra or invocation like:
I invoke the light within me,
I am a clear and perfect channel,
Light is my guide
You can also come up with your own mantra or saying, and use whatever feels right for you.
This is just a very short and quick method of protection. There are so many elaborate ones
too, which could be learnt and practised over the period of time. There is so much that we
can do when it comes to spiritual protection. Spirit of Fire, Violet Light of Master St.
Germain, Merkaba are very protective provided one knows how to use these. One
needs to honour these energies and develop a rapport with them through constant
practice.
